Came here for drinks on a Friday night and we got seats at the bar right away. I love ginger in a cocktail so I was excited to try. They have an extensive menu, so I asked the bartender a few questions before ordering. Ultimately we went with the Purple Rain and the OG G&T. Give them a try.

The bartender here was super friendly. The customer we sat next to is very nice. The ambiance chill. And the extensive menu they had for a tasting. Either rum, gin, whiskey was great. Their house made ginger shot very good. Would highly recommend checking out this place

Recently discovered this place because it is the only place in south Brooklyn I found that does burlesque shows… and what a fantastic time! The host Regina is incredible and really curates a warm party to her patrons. The bartenders are masterminds and making drinks out of the ordinary… will definitely be back every time they have Regina hosting her amazing burlesque show!!!!

Nice interior but the bartender here made my friend and I very uncomfortable and we had to leave

Love the NY state whiskeys and ryes! Would love to see the Sunday jazz band again, they are really good! Great way to end a fun weekend. 5 stars if they come back!

Interesting experience here at Barrow's, in the past I did attend at least 4 times so far and two times were for The Tippler Winter Book last year. Intense Hot Cider was a good drink that brings a spark to a cold day. In the summertime, most people seemed to order the Frozen Mule ( I did not love the drink but did not hate it either). Personally, it is not the most convenient neighborhood to travel to unless you live kind of close by. Staff was pretty friendly each time I did visit. Hours of operation were also pretty convenient. Featured cocktail, you can go for Intense Hot Cider, two of them will probably hit for you and you will enjoy.

The bartender, Axel (hope I spelled it right) made my first visit here AMAZING. Everything tasted amazing. Ginger is my favorite drink flavor and he did it justice. And great service

Barrow's is sooooooo good. They make their own Ginger Liqueur but also sell a lot of other stuff but the best part is it's all New York State products! From Coopers to Black Button, Barrow's has it all when it comes to really excellent quality products supporting NYS businesses. Industry City is a great place to find businesses like Barrow's so you can stop by and get some great food right down the alley!The place is COOL. Like super legit- romantic vibes inside but also great for a happy hour drink. There's indoor and outdoor seating (outdoor even has a firepit during the winter!). They have a bunch of events like "Meet the Maker" events with local distilleries and other special tastings. The cocktails are top notch- super well curated and always delicious. I had a awesome cocktail with both the Barrows ginger Liqueur and some amazing whiskey. It was unique but really good. The bartenders and manager have a ton of knowledge of the different spirits and are willing to educate you to get you exactly what you're craving. Take a look at their wall map to see the variety of New York Artisan they showcase. It's such a cool and comfortable place to be

Had a poor experience with one of the male bartenders here. I don't understand why you would choose this job if you don't like people. Yes, it's the bartender mentioned in the other negative review.

I feel bad writing a poor review because the place is beautiful and we liked the drinks but the bartender here was so awkward we had to leave. We left our drinks unfinished! We definitely would have stayed and enjoyed our time more but I’ve never really experienced something so strange. We had to ask for a tasting and then had to ask questions about the product feeling like we were imposing on the bartender’s preferred activity of staring silently with his hair in front of his face. The other bartender seemed far more personable and you could actually tell that he had eyes. Our bartender was more of the silent, Cousin It type which isn’t really what you want when someone is preparing a drink for you to consume. Some people just aren’t good with people and that’s fine but this situation was awkward and unwelcoming.

Ordered a NA drink. It's $10, around $10.63 with tax. I appreciate that they try to make it still taste like an alcoholic cocktail instead of just juice. Got myself a to-go drink and it bummed me out that the cup was barely 2/3 full when the bartender handed it to me. It looked like she was being trained. At least top it off with some water or soda, sheesh. I'm looking at photos of full to go cups and mine definitely poured to the top.

The atmosphere of this place is so beautiful - such a relaxing place to drink. This place has ginger in all the drinks except the hibiscus lemonade. The frozen mule was very strong and very good. The staff was very friendly and helpful!

I love this place! I've come a few times for the Salsa event and the scary stories around the fire pits. Addy is the best behind the bar! I can't speak for the food but the drinks, ambiance, and service are all top notch!

I came here twice as part of the Tippler experience. And boy this place does not disappoint!!!The first time I came in the winter and had a hot toddy. The second time I had a variation of the Moscow Mule.The staff is very knowledgable and go above and beyond to make this a great experience. FYI, the recently renovated too! So be sure to check it out if you haven't been in a awhile. The new vibe feels so cozy and perfect for a date night.IG: QueenOfAdventureNYC
