Highly recommend, a lovely vibe for drinks with friends or a date. Surprised there weren’t more people here on a Saturday night!Bartenders are great, gave a good rec for a tequila drink! I got something that tasted like a spicy margarita.Ask for a pen and you can draw on the blank page on the back of the menu.Appetizer suggestions:spicy nuts - they are not that spicy, it’s more like a pretzel nut mix.olives - use your hands when eating the olives, you might make a mess if you attempt to use the toothpick.

Great little place. Thought it would be too crowded on a weekend for a small group but it wasn't. Drinks have personality and taste good. The menu is fun to read through and there are blank pages in back to leave your mark.

This is a great bar to feel like a local in the neighborhood.- every Sunday and Monday, they have to love jazz. The musicians rotate, so it is a different vibe all the time and all-around great music- great cocktails. The menu is very detailed and historical, with a great selection, and the bartender, Raul, is very attentive. All the menu cocktails (that I’ve had) are delicious, and you can tell Raul what you are in the mood for and what you like, and he will mix you something along those lines - I have yet to be disappointed- food: the menu is from the restaurant next door. They partnered up during the pandemic when NYC mandated that all restaurants with to-go alcohol had also to serve food. I haven’t ordered food there, so I cannot speak to that experience.

I really like the vibe of this place and i was ready to try more drinks and food however our service took too long. Our food never made it after waiting 40 plus minutes. We asked to follow up on it but it still never made it to us and we had to cancel the food. Such a shame.

What an amazing space! The vibe is very warm and welcoming. That particular night there was live music. We had great drinks and food. We could not have asked for better service. Despite it being busy, they were very attentive and friendly. Looking forward to returning to Tooker Alley next time we are in Brooklyn.
Had Japanese appetizers which were very good. So was the wine. Light jazz music. Pleasantly surprised, after visit to Brooklyn museum. Will definitely come back!

Located within walking distance of the Brooklyn museum with great food, drinks and nice staff. I was waiting for friends running late to a night Brooklyn museum event and Tooker Alley saved me. When I walked in, I saw a few seats at the bar but a client stopped me saying she was saving the seats. The staff spotted me a little lost with what to do as it was also raining and the outdoor seating was soaked. I was guided to a small table. If the staff hadn't spotted me and helped, I likely would have left to try find another place. I wish I could remember the name of the drink I had, all I know is it had gin and I enjoyed it. I had a salmon roll and chicken dumplings. I did not expect the food to be SO GOOD. My friends ended up joining me mid-meal and we fought over the dumplings. Staff was quick to accommodate my friends at my table. Lovely jazz music was playing in the background. We were so tempted to cancel our plans and stay put for the night. Highly recommend if you're looking for food and drinks after a museum outing.

Charming, intimate place for cocktails! I came early on a Thursday evening, and it was still quiet and not too full. I had an excellent French75 which was part of their happy hour specials (until 7pm), but was eyeing many of the other interesting cocktails available to order.
