RICE, one of the pioneering restaurants in DUMBO at 81 Washington Street, is the official purveyor of food and wine for all St. Ann's Warehouse events. RICE BAR is open in the Warehouse lobby before and after every performance. Come early! Stay late! At the bar, you can select from wines, microbrews and specialties like sake, ginger tea and pear cider.

Sit or stand for a moment and enjoy a drink or a nibble. Based on a global variety of grains, the RICE BAR menu tends to vary along with the performances. Crowd-pleasers include an ever-changing choice of edibles like grilled eggplant maki, shrimp dim sum, Mexican tamales and scones made with rice flour.

RICE is also available to cater Warehouse events, from community meetings to gala dinners.
