Bar Nico has opened at 790 Grand Street! Bar Nico is an Australian pub that opened its doors in October. They offer a single rotating dish every night, with options including (but not limited to) steak frites, chicken parmesan, spicy shrimp pasta, and even a whole branzino. Offering only one dish per night allows them to churn out a delicious meal at an affordable price; they currently charge around $17-$20 for their rotating dish. Dinner isn’t the only affordable option at Bar Nico - you can get a beer and shot for $8, amongst other affordable drinks.
Owners, Morgan and Callum Siggi
The bars got a cozy, inviting vibe to it. Vintage ads, beer memorabilia, and photos line the walls. A jukebox sits in the back, next to an enclosed corner seating area. Bar Nico hosts events and parties with regularity, the space being the perfect size for a gathering.
Owners and brothers Morgan and Callum Siggi opened the space to be an “affordable local watering hole, where people can both start and finish their nights”. Originally from Sydney, Australia, the Siggi brothers bring over 25 years of experience in the hospitality industry - 20 of those years being in NYC. Morgan has enjoyed Grand Street, saying he “looks forward to meeting a mix of different people in the neighbourhood”. His favorite aspect of running Bar Nico is being able to mix it up with their dinner option every night, and building local camaraderie.
Swing by 790 Grand Street for an affordable dinner and nightcap the next time you're on Grand Street!
