The bar is currently open from 5:00pm – 7:00pm on Thursdays and Fridays.
Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of West Village, the Factory Lane bar at Metro Arts has seating, tables and a laid-back vibe – perfect for a catch-up with friends before heading into the theatre or gallery or to wind down after a hard day’s work.
Our bar area has undercover seating (and heating during the cooler months) providing a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere – no matter the weather.
Every dollar you spend at the Metro Arts bar goes towards supporting artists and the incredible work they produce.
