Café 50 West’s Blog

What is and what isn't happening at your FAVORITE neighborhood bistro and watering hole... 

What a Success!

Last night, we hosted our first official Open Mic Night!

All the performers were great and the cafe was full of new and old faces alike.

I'm so impressed with how well the night went and I can guarantee that we will

be hosting another Open Mic Night in the very near future!

Thanks again to all the artists who participated and to all of our guests!

See you soon!

Rock On!

Got Community??

New York City: Look Beyond the Veil of Distraction

Join us as we reflect on the challenges we face when living in a diverse - multicultural city, a city saturated in materialism, work, stress, and tunnel vision. We'll share our thoughts - perhaps some solutions - and invite you to share yours!

In preparation we ask that you meditate on the following:  "WHAT'S KEEPING YOU UP AT NIGHT?"

Discussion led by Reb L, aka Rabbi Leor Sinai

Wednesday, November 4th
Meet and Greet Cocktail Hour at 6:30pm
Discussion begins at 7:00pm

Help us peel away the distractions and build our community, one soul at a time.

Home Sweet Home

In all the crazy hustle and bustle of New York City....I've found a place to call home.  It's cozy, and smells of mom's home cooking. (the kind that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside)

This is my first week here and it feels like my roots have been here all along.

Not only is my staff incredibly hard working and friendly... the customers who join us for meals, and/or a drink, have to be some of the most interesting and dynamic people I've met. There are regulars and new faces EVERY DAY!

There really is a sense of family!

I welcome all of you out there to stop in and experience how special this place really is. Come Join our Family!

I'm so excited to be working with the locals in bringing together our monthly OPEN MIC NIGHT!

It's going to be great! Don't worry! I'll keep you all posted. 

See you Soon!!!

Corinne - Assistant Manager

YAY!!! We are 2!!!

This weekend, we at the Café are celebrating our 2 year anniversary...!

It has all happened quite quickly.  And given the fact that most restaurants fail within the first year or two,  we have something to be proud of.

Sooooo, it's time to celebrate.

Saturday night we are having a party...

Open bar from 8-10.

Free Appetizers.

DJ Jay spinning mp3's all night.

Good times, good peeps.  It's all we ever wanted.

It's raining. SURPRISE!!!

Just a quick note about the deluge that is our lives here in NYC...

 

Life is wet.

Life is hard.

Why not swing by the cafe and tell us about it.

We are friendly.

We are nice.

We'll even give you hugs, if you ask...

 

So, see you later???

(I sure hope so...)

Saturday evening CHILLOUT!!

With all the rain, and the absence of summer, this evening has given us at the cafe a chance to take a step back and CHIIIIIIL...
So, here's my point of view, tasting seasonal cocktails and playing backgammon with my bartender David.
(Yes, it's the same David that worked here last year... He's back for the summer, and working Saturdays exclusively. Come in and welcome him back!!!)
See you soon!

A New Addition...

I know it's been some time since i last posted something.

Well, it's time for me to report that we have a new staff member, ODED, that is helping us improve the flavors on our menu.  (He will also allow me to have a day off or two...)

SOOOOO, we will be introducing new menu items over the next week, so LOOK OUT FOR THEM!

That's not a threat, but a promise of some good things to come.  See you soon!

NEW MENU...???

So, yes...  We have once again made some menu adjustments...

In order to further compete in these difficult times, we have made some price concessions and reformulated a few of our dishes.

* All burgers and sandwiches are now served with homemade potato chips, instead of fries.
This allows us to save money on potatoes and the oil we fry them in.  WE THEN PASS THOSE SAVINGS BACK TO YOU!

* We have adjusted menu prices DOWNWARD.
This is a move directed at being more competitive.  We realize that people have less money to spend, so we are looking for ways to give people the same FUN EXPERIENCE, just at LOWER PRICES...

* And, of course, NEW MENU ITEMS!
In our continued effort to give YOU, our customers, what you want, we have added some new things to our daily reportiore... Buffalo Chicken Wings, Fish Tacos, Omelets, and an Egg Sandwich are now available ALL DAY, EVERY DAY.

COME IN AND SAY HI!
