Fat Radish Crew Opening ‘East Pole’ on the UES
This image has been archived or removed.
Team Fat Radish is taking an expedition to the east pole. Just let us explain…
Already with two successful Orchard Street establishments to their collective name, Ben Towill and Phil Winser are movin’ on up to 65th Street armed with a new restaurant concept. It’s called East Pole Kitchen & Bar, and will likely boast that same “trendy rustic” vibe as 17 Orchard. There isn’t too much public info just yet, save for the parking page on the official website.
And as Lady of Grand notes, well-heeled uptowners have been journeying to Orchard and Canal for years, so this additional spot could stop that.
East Pole Kitchen & Bar is located at 133 East 65th Street (at Lexington).
