50 Best Bars near Broad Channel

“I went here with a group of friends. It is a small intimate bar. They occasionally have a kitchen that serves homemade dishes. Lots of inexpensive bottles of icy cold beers, as well as mixed drinks. There is a pool table and a dart board, music from cd's. I had fun but I knew a lot of people in the bar. Very friendly staff. They also have "guest bartender night". A frequent patron acts like the bartender for the evening.“

“Such a fun experience! Axe throwing was more challenging than I expected but thankfully their staff helped make corrections so we were able to get the hang of it! The staff is super friendly and very encouraging and attentive. It was a wonderful time trying something new and totally out of our element. I would definitely recommend this location! =) have fun!“

“Great place. Definitely must come back again.“

“Great sandwich app was a little qurkie nice place would read“

“Panzon is becoming a neighbourhood staple. Fantastic drinks, delicious food, great music and a gorgeous back patio. My favourite drink is the Panzon, a creamy avocado tequila drink and I always order the tuna tostada and the torta sandwich!“

“Good oysters and a happy hour that runs until 7pm. The oysters were fresh and while I’m not a huge fan of red sauce I did enjoy the freshly shaved horseradish. That and a few other small Spanish plates and $12 martinis made this a pleasant low key early evening out“

“Good food and coffee and friendly staff👍👍👍👍👍“

“Beautiful bar and people , I felt at home and am new to the area but enjoy and recommend. I am impressed.“

“My beautiful Grand daughter studied for the GMAT there. We enjoyed a delicious sandwich. The bathroom was nice I washed my hands. My beautiful grand daughter took a shot of whiskey then rode a bus LOL anyhoo great time in Brooklyn for all it was also Halloween and this fun loving grandma dressed as a cat. Then I chased my husband Roger around for some fun LOL I recommend coming here during the day esp sundays very nice reminds me of Ireland and I have ancestors there“

“A cocktail-forward spot, but the food keeps pace. Caught in that limbo between lunch and dinner I stopped in for a quick bite and drink. Positive vibes all around and a sense that everyone was exactly where they wanted to be.

They have an extensive drink menu with both alcoholic and nonalcoholic options. The mezcal gimlet was smoky yet slightly sweet with cucumber adding a fresh lift. The jasmine and cucumber fizz was light and floral. For food, I kept things on the lighter side with the hamachi crudo and caesar salad. The crudo impressed—it was surprisingly delicate and finished with a touch of smoked salt. The caesar was classic crisp romaine, just enough dressing to coat without drowning, with crunch scattered on top.

The place itself is versatile—date night, post-work drinks, catching up with an old friend, it fits the mood. Next time, I’ll arrive hungry with no dinner plans in sight.“

“Great food and very friendly staff!“

“Comfortable place to catch a breakfast bite, plus they serve beer & cocktails“

“Great Experience ~ Nice Atmosphere, Fabulous Food and Staff , we will be back !“

“Best Bloody Mary! Best Saturday play list! Great bar! ❤️“

“Excellent food. I usually don’t trust fusion food but they do it right. Authenticity in Korean flavors with western interpretations.
Can’t speak so much for drinks since I don’t drink, but vibes are great, food is amazing - also love how there is a specific sequence to the food. It’s very carefully curated.“

“Great concept. Drinks were on point, bartender was on top of things. Quick serve cocktails with complexity that would take 10x the time to build from scratch . Small quaint space, an expansion is in smart move in the future.“

“Perfect event for farewell evening! Thank you!“

“(Nov 2014) Uber cool high tech mod fitout and no shortage of opinionated beer nerds (complete with obligatory cult brewery t-shirts). Even at 2pm on a Sunday arvo. Doesn’t quite have the warm of a traditional US bar but still pretty friendly. Very international list with a focus on left of centre. Pricing on the high side but reflects the quality of the beers. Served via cabernet glasses - a nice touch. I really grew to like the place and they use a small space well. Can I say it reminds me of Two Row in Melbourne? And....btw....the only other bar I have ever seen where punters are punching out tasting notes!“

“Seriously one of the best restaurants/bars I’ve been to. The service was unbelievable and the owner actually served us (we later found out he was the owner and were shocked). We told him we were celebrating our anniversary and he helped us so we had a longer reservation.
The live DJ was so good and we shazamed so many songs that he played off of the records.
Such a great date night spot for the atmosphere and the food was amazing. Small menu but every single thing on it was amazing.
The wine was tasty, the drinks different but exciting. Would recommend the sole e vento white wine, the coa de jima drink, and the cold sesame noodles specifically.
There is also a really cute outdoor area with an outdoor bar!
Overall 12/10 and would most definitely return.“

“Great cocktail cool neighborhood vibe“

“The food is just the best.“

“Amazing. Stay away so there's more room for us.

If you do sneak in 😂 you will find friendly people serving OUTSTANDING food (small, careful menu) in a house that Jazz built.

Jazz folks this is the real deal. Everyone else should just come and enjoy the magic of live music.

Pro tip: come early for a seat for the 1st set or arrive late to get a seat by the 2nd set (most likely).

Vegetarian options: Small menu so check beforehand. My 2 vegetarians were fine.

Parking: If you circle they will appear

Kid-friendliness: If they like jazz (and can be quiet during the music) no problem!“

“They don’t really have food so no rating on that. Great local vibey place. Lots of seating indoor and out, even if it’s a small place. Great DJs and music. People actually dance even though it’s not a club. Security is nice. More of a grab a drink with friends place and listen to music than cocktail bar or club. My go to place on Fulton. Swing by the halal cart after in front of the Franklin station.“

“Amazing food! Highly recommended! One of the best food menus in the neighborhood!“

“Cocktails and Karaoke was the Highlight.“

“Solid bar with solid popups. Follow @better_than_porridge and see when she'll show up there if you want food, and real damn good food at that too.

Bartenders are always on their A game and awesome people. Even better - dogs allowed so you can pet everyone else's dogs“

“Excellent cocktails, excellent service, and excellent atmosphere! 10/10“

“Wow place was amazing, food was delicious , service was excellent. Place is a must come back to for all occasions. music and dancing is also an extra.“

“The music is always good, people are fun, bartenders are friendly, decor is pretty metal and punk oriented, a fun place to go to.“

“Kent Ale House in Brooklyn 🤌 The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a great selection of beers (Kent Pilsner 🔥) and a menu that hits the spot for casual dining. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the incredible service. Siobhan is an absolute star—attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in making sure you have a fantastic experience. She went above and beyond to ensure our group was well taken care of, even during a busy bar with England playing rugby. If you’re looking for a spot with great vibes and top-notch service, Kent Ale House is the place to go. Siobhan 🫶“

“I got booze and it was good, my liver hurts, let's get naked“

“Where else can you get TWO drinks for less than $15 in NYC?! I’ll wait!!!

Keybar has the best happy hour specials!!! The drinks are 2 for 1 and range from $9-15. You can also get a free round of shots if you come 7 days before or after your birthday.

There’s a free Photo Booth that sends the pictures directly to your phone. The decor and ambience is aesthetic yet very chill.

Def a lowkey vibe!!!

They also have tacos, quesadillas, and pizza.

Get the passionfruit martini or shots and thank me later!!!!“

“Unfortunately I was a little too late to try their food, but one look around the room, it seemed like everyone who had food was enjoying it. I hear the wings are on the spicier side so this is a fair warning. Also, one question on my mind was, ‘do they have natural wine?’ I did find out that they in fact do carry natural wine and it is delicious! Overall happy with my trip to Doublé !“

“Very very good food! Our first time here after having heard about it for forever. Good wings, but my partner's shepherd's pie (although made with beef) was the winner, perfectly spiced and delicious. My Jameson chicken was very good as well. Enormous portions and we each brought a large amount home. Best soda bread I've had outside Ireland.

Very friendly attentive service. It was a little hard to hear due to all the hard reflective surfaces and music playing and cheerful people talking, but this was a great place. We'll be back, and are especially interested in the Sunday roast.

Update: back for shepherd's pie and a salad - splitting everything bc the portions were huge. Great food and friendly service.“

“Good strong drinks for a reasonable price, the games are all kinda meh but the atmosphere is pretty interesting and it’s a chill vibe and the live music is good. There is even an outside area that is dope. The food is hotdogs which I don’t eat so I can’t speak to that. 5 stars if the games were better.“

“Great atmosphere, great service, and good drinks.“

“I never knew there was such a cool bar on Roosevelt Ave of all places! I live further east of here in Queens so now I do not have to go all the way to Astoria. The owner Lee is super cool and so are the other patrons. I ended up chatting with strangers and we all had a great time“

“The bartender Pam!!! She makes me want to come back… the people are soo welcoming and the men! Pure GENTLEMEN!! Will def be coming back PAM IS A DOLL AND WILL LOOK OUT FOR THE LADIES!! Thank you Pam she was soo comforting I for one will be back!!!“

“The food is amazing! We had the mussels, Brussels sprouts, artichoke hearts, chicken, shepherd’s pie, fish sandwich, and burger. The drinks were wonderful and the ambiance was so much fun. Really had a laugh at the bathroom with all the googly eyes.“

“Generally I only come here for brunch, the food measures between fine to good. The full English breakfast slaps. The service is chill yet superb. Dog friendly! and a great spot to escape the annoying crowd of social media colonizers. Probably my favorite sports bar yet I don’t follow sports.“

“Filthy Diamond is truly a one of a kind space. The community cultivated by the fantastic staff is incredibly welcoming and inspiring. From live music, to killer DJ sets, to chess nights, to the arcade games in the back, or even just chilling in truly the coziest backroom ever (literally feels like my living room), there’s something for everyone. I’ve also met some of the most interesting people here—the hang is an extremely heady brew of artists, musicians, DJs, writers, poets, theater people, industry connoisseurs, literally any creative profession you can imagine. I feel so grateful and honored to count myself as part of this community, it genuinely feels like home—safe, joyful, inclusive, and so nourishing.“

“Soooooo this was one of my best finds for a local spot to have drinks along with a few bites to eat. I had the pleasure of being served by Carlos and Kevin. Amazing staff members who have made my experience here at Altar one to remember. I’ll definitely be back here to explore their fabulous drink menu. And the Tartare paired with the fries was amazing. Carlos, the manager and bartender made all drink to perfection. I’ll definitely be back to explore this beautiful gem. Thanks to all the staff who have made this a wonderful experience.“

“Great beer selection, friendly staff“

“I love this place! I’ve told all my friends about it. The music is 10/10. Drinks are 10/10. Service 10/10. I had such a GREAT time. My man and I literally danced all night. The manager gave us shots because it was our birthday. So sweet!

Food is 4/10. They don’t have much on the food menu so I recommend eating beforehand and enjoying their cocktails cause they’re bomb!

The vibe is so open & free people just want to have a good time! And the aesthetic is so cute. Can’t wait to visit again!“

“The food is spectacular, of course, but the service is equally spectacular. They are courteous and friendly - Michael went to a great deal of trouble to ensure our order was delivered in time for a "big" birthday. Five stars plus!“

“Was here for a birthday and was a great experience! They had some technical difficulties but it was compensated with an extra hour and with free soju shots. And the issues only lasted a couple min before someone was there. Had ~25 people comfortably in one of the rooms.

Everything was really clean and the staff was really friendly ! Everything was cheap and decently priced for drinks and the room. 10/10 recommend if you don’t want to travel to Ktown for karaoke.“

“This is such a cute restaurant that's conveniently located right by the tram and subway at Roosevelt Island. The decor is cozy with whimsical items that reminds you of a fictional granny's house. I've been here twice, once for drinks and brunch. The service was friendly both times, this seems to be a regular spot for people who live on the island. I would definitely recommend coming here if you're visiting Roosevelt Island.“

“A unique experience. You explain in general terms what you are looking for in your drink, and the bartender presents a drink to you that is an appropriate interpretation of your idea. Wow!!!“

“Local hangout with tasty drinks!“
