“Met up with my partner after a rehearsal she had down here (she’s the best!) anywho - tried to walk into red hook tavern without a res (like a coupla chumps!). They saidIt was gonna be a seven year wait til we could get the shrimp cocktail, so tail-between-our-legs we hobbled down Van Brunt (like adorable animated dogs from a 90’s Disney Movie) and poked our heads into TGFP (we are on an acronym basis at this point ;) - the vibes ? Immaculate. The food? Indescribable (( actually think the burger rivals RHT ?)), but I digress - unpretentious, creative menu, another gem of the neighborhood. Come here folks or I’ll come and get you !“
“Always good !! Just stopped in on a sunny day to sit outback and enjoy the excellent cheeseburger and kale salad . We love this dive bar, people always friendly and the quality of food for the price is excellent . Been coming here for ten yrs or more and it never disapoints“
“relaxing vibe open at 12 noon. Not really crowded inside at all. Waitress is very friendly and calm. Non judgmental vibes. They have hot tea as well. I ordered Green tea ($5) it was so delicious. The waitress brings water too. Big open spaces feel free. I highly recommend! I see most of the pictures are old location, (not sure where it was) I'll update pictures next time.“
“I came here for the weekly Bitches Brew comedy show on a Friday night. It was all the way in the back. It started around 8:30pm, but the seats easily filled up. If you go for that, I'd recommend getting there around 8:15. I don't expect anything when it comes to comedy shows, but I was genuinely impressed. There were about eight comics, and even the worst of the bunch was still decently funny. Overall, the bar is cozy and spacious. I didn't get anything to drink, but it seemed like there was a wide range of affordable options.“
“First timer there even though I believe they've been around but the food and drinks were awesome and the have screens everywhere for your sports viewing and they will try to set you up with your game while you soak up some food and refreshments....recommend it!!!“
“The place is full of European Vibe!! The decoction is super simple but elegant. They have 21 variety of taps and a lot of Great wine and beer. I just love the dim light and music with good taste of drinks. Bartender in there is super friendly and make you feel comfortable. I just feel like love it.“
“What a cute bar that has been around for 17 years and just yesterday I stepped foot into it for my first time. It was the 17th Anniversary party yesterday as well. They had a bunch of collabs with other breweries so their taps were filled with wonderful selection of cool beers. I got here when it opened grabbed a seat at the bar. I didn't catch her name but the bartender was super nice and we chatted a bit. This bar has two tvs in the bar area and some tables in the back. It also has an outdoor area which I did not get to check out unfortunately. The only downside is, is that there is no food served here. But the upside is that you can get free Pop-corn! If you have not been here before, I would suggest stopping by. By the way whoever does their social media is super great!“
“Can accommodate groups of All sizes … Grill master is off the chain … Cheeseburger on a pretzel bun are so so delicious … staff is joyful and friendly while the beer selection is one of a kind. Then to all the Players … the music room is wood-based with a vented ceiling both allowing super warmness and absorption for you band’s lower-registered folk and volume-headroom for your scream & shout folk and everything else … what’s not to love … Rock on Radegast !!!!!“
“This bar has a number of amenities that make it stand out like indoor bocchi and a comedy hall downstairs. There's even a library.However, these come at the expense of seating. I came here on a Saturday night and couldn't find anywhere to sit. I just had to stand for a bit and spy out a chair as soon as I could grab it.Their beer selection is alright, though lacking in a broader variety that would help it stand out.“
“食物好吃！2024/March editFood is amazing as always, and the staffs are super friendly and makes you relax at the moment you step into the space.Really appreciate to have a place like this in the neighborhood, thank you!Recommend chicken slaw for all the Asian stomachs, we order it every time when they serve foods (Thursday to Sunday)“
“Lovely dive spot for a fresh draft and ambient buzz. Beyond burger and fried pickles served hot and timely. Sweet bartender with knowledge and a smile. Tv screens running White Lotus were either over-the-top irony or well-placed takes on us clientele. A neighborhood haunt full of happy years.Vegetarian options: Beyond burger was good“
“Pete’s was on my “must-go” list for a long time and my visit turned out to be even better than I had expected. The idea of a bar with random live performances is fantastic. The service was friendly, the drinks were reasonably priced, and the grilled cheese sandwich was absolutely delicious. Overall, it's a wonderful place to spend an evening with friends.“
“Great old-school bar in Brooklyn. Went in for a pint during a tough week. Bartender was friendly, cool, and poured a nice pint. Place is dark and clean like a bar should be. Comfortable, great music, warm atmosphere. Felt the ghosts of countless good times. It just feels right. Couldn't do more than one today but will definitely stop in for a session when I can. Already informed others. Smith's is a classic Brooklyn pub.“
“I’ve been throughout the years and have experienced the owner transitions of this wonderful establishment. Every evolution the ale house has gone through has always been so positive. I can’t think of anything wrong with each new owner as I know they all want different preferences and experience. The new owners that took over in the beginning of 2023 are amazing! Elevated pub fare and such a cozy environment. Having a bad day? Come to park slope ale house. You won’t regret it.“
“Classic neighborhood, no frills Irish dive bar. Good Guinness pours & strong cocktails. Friendly bartender w/ a sense of humor. There is good food across the street, & you're welcome to eat it at the bar. One regular tried to steer the convo to something negative about people of color, & everyone else jumped down his throat & shut him the f up.“
“Stopped by to watch a football game. Now, I have no idea what goes on in the world of football but I loved the vibe of this bar. There are also cozy couches in the middle with the perfect view of the game. My friend and I enjoyed their wide selection of beers, and also their huge chicken sandwich. Fries were insanely good.“
“best place to get drinks and food while enjoying some top notch soul / blues / folk / country / jazzy funky fusion music! they have a picture of fats waller on the wall! no other bar ive ever been to has that! highly recommended in all aspects“
“Small, ill-marked bar with a great backyard seating area. I came here more than ten years ago and remembered an extensive Belgian beer list, but they appear to have pivoted somewhat in the interim. The tap list was good but not amazing, and the prices for cans and bottles were pretty high. With reset expectations I think I would really like it here, but I loved the old Belgian beer bar feel from times past.“
“Solid bar that has an incredible draft list and reasonably priced drinks. They also have some pretty interesting "shots", such as a pickled herring and vodka, mushroom and vodka, etc. I ended up getting two of the herring and vodka because I surprised by how much I actually liked it! Def do yourself a service and try it. It's cozy and dark inside, but has outside seating in front of the bar. Bartender was also super friendly. Would go back again!“
“Great for reserving for large groups or parties. They let you bring in outside food since their in house food menu is slim pickings. Best part was that I didn't have to shout-talk over loud music like most bars. It was easy to have a conversation with friends without needing to scream in each others ears. Quite dark inside but not a bother to me.“
“This place is really cool and simple to have a drink not crazy expensive. The bar man is such a really nice and charming guy. The play list Fela Kuti radio at this time was really cool. I recommend this place just to relax Loving Brooklyn !“
“They are the worst, they don't deliver, they don't open until after 3pm sometimes, you can only order from a grub hub app or a user app I really think for a local business that is bullshit, I was ordering food from across the street from them litterly 4 stores away from them and was going to order about 300.00 worth of food, i will never call this place ever again they had no problem sending 2 employees to the bar across the street from them to get buckets of ice over the summer when their ice machine was not working for weeks at one point they didn't even asked for them to get ice they just walked in like they worked here how soon they forget let them try it this summer or next summer let's see what happens“
“Really lovely pub perfect for a cold, wintry day. It's super warm & inviting inside, great list of beers & good cocktails (which I always find a nice bonus from a pub), lovely bar staff and lots of space.I went on a lazy Thursday afternoon and the vibe was cosy and chatty. I'd definitely go again.“
“This place was such a treasure to find! Solid drink selection. The real gem though is that they have a good news bell for people celebrating! The bartender asked what brought us in and it was a friend’s birthday, but my partner and I are also engaged and getting married in April, as was another couple there with us that night. We all got a shout out, had celebratory shots, and it was so much fun! I absolutely love the good news bell.It’s also fun even if you yourself aren’t celebrating something to have those pleasant reminders of good things happening in others’ lives. I know it might sound cheesy when I say it like that, but it was really nice!They also have a nice patio in the back and shuffleboard in the main bar area. Highly recommend, will be back!“
“Best fries ever! The burgers use to be good... Idk if the changed management or workers but, definitely not the same as a year ago when I first came here. Vegetables are not fresh & not enough quantity. I had to ask for a good amount of veggies on my burger since the last time I went there all they gave me was a leaf of lettuce (the core!) & 3 strips of onions. Ps Spicy mayo sauce is good“
“The fries where really good and the perfect texture, the burger was was juicy and the drinks where so tasty! The bartenders and servers where all very kind and attentive and always checking in on us which was appreciated. The restaurant itself has a bit of a upscale country theme going and "Christmas in the summer" themed decorations which is cute and lots of televisions to watch sports or news.“
“Brendan is an energetic and enthusiastic owner. This was a great find for a Brooklyn visitor. It felt like a local place where everybody knows you, but is exciting to meet you. The "tots" are the best.Vegetarian options: Tots are vegetablesDietary restrictions: As long as you like drinks and food you are good to goParking: Parking is not an issue“
“Old school chill vibe. A neighborhood staple. Not going to attract the hipsters (like who isn't that anyway lol) or the newer demographic, which is FINE. The owner is very nice and accommodating. Dark and divey. Bathroom was clean. No idea about an atm, I will have to go again and see.The security glass is a wild touch. Haven't seen that in a bar in awhile. Totally Covid ready for sure. Don't expect fancy bells and whistles here. Get your drinks and chill.For sure an older crowd. So I assume less idiot fights. I wouldn't know for sure but grown people don't play that usually.“
“The 773 is an outstanding lounge. The people who work here are very cool, and contribute to the friendly and welcoming ambience. The place brings in an interesting crowd and the vibe is chill. They have food in the back and host music events... Lots of fun reasons to stop by. Tip liberally and ask about "SPIN THE WHEEL".“
“The Palace is my favorite neighborhood spot. I'm super glad this gem of Greenpoint was saved and by a really great crew. Tons of space, outdoor inside and in the back room. They also allow you to rent the back room for private events. The food is great, especially the burger and the wings. They have a variety of different wings too. You can sit outside with your dog as well! They do all sorts of events and have djs also. The drinks are good and they have a great selection of beers and the staff is all friendly and great.“
“Great yard, big, plenty of seats, benches. You enter the bar to a round bar and a super friendly bartender who lets you try different drafts. There seemed to be a few locals sitting at the bar who were regulars and knew the bartender - always appreciate that vibe.“
“The Emerson is such a great laid-back bar/lounge with a great bartender and fun yet not distracting music selection. I've enjoyed two of the cocktails on their menu including the title cocktail. They also have pool tables in the back which is way cool and a patio that I have yet to see for myself but hear nothing but great things about. See you there soon!“
“The beer is good (especially their IPAs) while the food is fairly run-of-the-mill bar food, and difficult to endorse when the surrounding area is such a wealth of excellent restaurants. Most importantly though, on Sundays they have one TV tuned to literally every NFL game. My understanding is they do similar things with soccer and likely other sports as well. Has the feel of a casual neighborhood sports bar, but with significantly better beer than you'd get at most of those.“
“What a blast at starlight tavern. Been for a birthday party , and for a relaxing December evening with friends. Although I did walk in on this freak who would not lock the bathroom door, and I did find a man passed out on the skee ball table (EMTs came, he was just catatonic after losing a $10 bet on the game) I always have a great time here. Helpful staff. Drinks sort of pricey but par for the neighborhood, 8 dollar drafts etc.“
“Feeney’s pub is a home away from home good ppl and great bartender’s always have good experiences. I have had my birthday’s there a few times and also thrown few party there and it’s always a great experience with great ppl so I will recommend Feeneys for any occasions you have“
“I was staying around the corner from connie o’s . I was looking for a local bar for the whole week and I finally found it. Unfortunately it was on my last night. I was welcomed immediately and asked where I was from. They were great people and just what I was looking for. “
“Great little neighborhood classic Irish pub feel but with several games you could play. Darts, pool table/billiards, two arcade style machines for I think some sort of like casino card game, they got a modern jukebox & some Friday nights they even got Karaoke!. They have an ATM to get cash for the pool table only accepts coins quarters. It’s not a big pub but it’s got a great vibe the bartender and the locals and people there are very friendly and staff provides great service. if you want the experience of authentic Brooklyn classic Irish pubs then this bar is a must visit. Very mixed crowd mostly from the neighborhood. They got several regulars, solid drinks. Nothing fancy nothing bougie got about five beers on tap usually. For special occasions sometimes they’ll have food but it’ll be like ordered and delivered like catered or something like that, they don’t have a kitchen inside, so there is an anything to munch on or eat there. I think you might be able to deliver there if you want to eat.“
“I loved it! My first visit despite leaving in the area and seeing this place. I stopped by on my way back home after missing my train stop because I felt asleep on my way back from work, I had to walk a long distance back to my neighborhood because trains ran on express track due to an unfortunate incident. I was supposed to have only one drink, I chose Moscow Mule. After a long while, I tasted UFO and "kept" Irish Cider, I liked it! Great play music, English and Spanish, I might come back to karaoke tonight despite working tomorrow and getting up st 5:30 am. No food though, only pizza, no kitchen here. Management, how about serving popcorn, "chicharrones" (easy to find in this neighborhood), or any other "salty snack" upon request to keep us drinking??? That's the way we do in Mexico at the "cantinas" (bars"). i don't want to go home just blocks away!!!“
“Thought there was a pool table. Ended up licking ice cubes instead. Great place ?Once a haven for Guinness and Irish banter, The Craic has been hit by a Gen Z tornado. Avocado toasts now battle pints, and the dance floor is a TikTok battleground. I miss the days when the only hashtags were on the bathroom walls. Save our pints from flossing! ???“
“Fantastic locals bar in Brooklyn. The bar has been in business as long as I can remember. I had dinner reservations a mile away so I met a good friend for pre game. The bar is made up of old wood paneling, classic Brooklyn joint. Lori behind the bar is as good as it gets. Customers are very friendly. Prices are below reasonable. I think you can order a pizza that they heat up for you. Cash only Plenty of street parking available.“
“Long standing local pub in the heart of bayridge! its got the tin ceiling still! it's one of those locals hang out pub, there's back room accomondates larger party, they also have a dart board, juke box! I usually go there for beer, it can get crowded depending on the night. they have few drafts and a cider. Bartenders are friendly and quick to serve!“
“Obsessed with the Little Whiskey. Not too fancy, not too divey. They’re always playing good sports or movies on the tv. It also feels like there’s always the right amount of people—it’s never overly crowded to the point that you can’t find a seat but it’s also never empty to the point that it feels boring or lame. Our boy Landon who works the bar is a god-tier bartender.“
“I came here to order food to take out. The bartender took my order quickly and offered me a drink while I waited. I ordered a margarita on the rocks with salt. It was a really great drink. I sat there caught some sports and enjoyed my drink. I took home an order of chicken tenders which I forgot to take a picture of. There was six perfectly fried and fresh chicken tenders with a side of honey mustard sauce. Everything was great and the price was right. I enjoy Salty Dog and they keep the place clean. Staff is very attentive. I always enjoy eating and dinking here.“
“The food is amazing, and the expansive selection of beer is awesome! The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is quite welcoming. The Midwood Burger is so delicious, I usually consume at least two of them.This is one of my favorite neighborhood bars.“
“Classic spot , newer location,Chicken fingers with honey mustard, fresh homemade pot roast. It doesn't get better.Service is excellent, food selections are excellent.Don't forget them daily homemade specials.TV's galore, and great great crowd.“
“I didn't have any food, but I can comment on everything else. This was my second visit almost a year to the day from last year. My sister-in-law took me here last year as she knows I am an Arsenal supporter! I absolutely love this place. The staff, the patrons, everything and everyone were great. I felt like I was back living in England again (even though I'm Brooklyn born and bred). I highly recommend this establishment!“
“Moot is a great neighborhood bar. To me, the Wednesday trivia is perfectly calibrated by the host, Josh. The bartender, Chaz, has been there 10 years and is an efficient pro and a good guy to trade war stories with. A pint is $7-$8. What more do you want in a bar?“
“Great casual spot for a drink! This is one of those super local spots that's always full of people on a night out. It's well-located on Smith Street, which is full of great food and dessert options. It does get quite loud so keep that in mind. Good place for a drink!“
“Went to pick up a few things but wasn't familiar with the store. The gentleman that worked there couldn't have been the MOST accommodating. He helped me with everything. And even helped me to the car. I highly recommend this store.“
“Went here on a Saturday late night. It was crowded but we managed to get a seat in the back for two. Cozy and warm ambiance. Their cocktail was veryshort but very well priced. Helps with any indécision.I ordered the Gin lizzy which came out pretty strong. Like a sweet Manhattan. Something with the mix of ingredients the vanilla & almond syrup, passionfruit, lemon & bitters gave it an aftertaste that I can't quite pinpoint.However, I did enjoy my husband's drink the Watermelon Drugstore made with Ojo de tigre mezcal, watermelon, honey ginger syrup and lemon. Also enjoyed their version of a spicy margarita composed of espolon, lime, agave, contreau.I'm glad to be adding a new bar to my roster. And the prices here make them very appealing. Will return to try out the food menu.“
