Recently opened in the spot formerly Banjo Jim’s (and before that, 9C), The Wayland is somewhat off the beaten path, located at 700 East 9th Street (at Avenue C). The space has the same layout as its predecessors (upon entering, the bar is on the right side and some seating on the left side with windows looking out onto Avenue C and 9th Street; along with the same wooden staircase leading up to the front door). Cocktails are a draw here, as is the small bites menu. The menu also mentioned that Oysters were coming soon. If you happen to be nearby, The Wayland is a good addition to the Avenue C NYC bar crawl.
