Formerly the Avenue B Social Club, this East Village space is now Manitoba's, a good place to have a drink with friends and reminisce about the glory days of rock ‘n' roll. There is a stage in back, where you can see rising young bands play for free. At other times, the jukebox jumps and the crowd mellows to the scene. All you punk fans out there take note-the bar is owned by Dick Manitoba, front man of the seminal punk band the Dictators.(The Dictators are still going strong and are touring in Europe.)
