Hair of the Dog Opens on Orchard Today

Posted on: October 11th, 2012 by

Assume positions; it all starts now. The shit is about to hit the proverbial fan of upper Orchard Street. Hair of the Dog is but a few hours from opening in the location formerly occupied by Cafe Charbon. Public inauguration for the frat-hole is set for 11 am.

Elements of the predecessor are still visible, but the overall personality of 170 Orchard Street is pretty much a 180. Feels more nightclub-esque with the exterior color scheme of black, red, and gold. Nameplate lettering was uncovered yesterday, and drapes lifted from the windows. The charm is gone.

Expect everything you would from other players in the NYC Best Bars roster – rowdy sports gatherings, beer pong, etc. And with the added bonus of daily 4 am closing times! Hell Square certainly has another formidable contributor.

Below is a snapshot of their menu:

    pukers get ready. As part of the 99% who live here, I loathe that 1% who commute in to ruin it.

    The bro-ification of the LES.

    Upper Orchard Street — in R.E. agentnese, would that be UOS or UpOrSt?

    That menu and the pic of the façade of this bar and grille, might as well have been from any suburban town or a shopping mall or a highway.

    finally a place to go that feels like cheers! Goodluck to whoever open this establishment!!! these people who are talking negative should move to PA or upstate!!!

      Most of the people that’d be going here are weekenders or originally from PA or upstate. Plus, they have this kind of place there. Why come to LES/NYC just to be in a frat joint where they could have just stayed home, bro, brah?

    They should officially make the LES the official bar area for the entire city. Only bars allowed.
