Arlene's Grocery is a bar and music venue located in the Lower East Side district of Manhattan.
The former Puerto Rican bodega (the facade of which remains)[1] and neighboring butcher shop were converted into a bar in 1995.
[2] It hosts a variety of musical acts, although punk and hard rock bands tend to be most common.
Local acts usually play at the venue, while their slightly "hipster" clientele often stay within the confines of the separate bar area.
