50 Best Beer Bars near Jamaica

“This is an authentic African restaurant, so I would go with someone who knows your taste. My Nigerian friend took us there, and he recommended the dishes. I love the rice and goat (different from my Jamaican flavor). My friend, she had rice and chicken. They were delicious. Something different. Go taste ?. PS. The place is not large but quient and cozy. Staff and owner are very friendly.“

“I had tostones with carrucho and it was delicious! I got here through a recommendation and it did not disappointed! The only reason why I am giving it 4/5 is that the food it’s a little bit overpriced for the actual place… But overall really good!“

“And cider & bier - about a dozen on draught, and more cabs and bottles on the in the cooler. Great Brie garden in back for gatherings.“

“Our favorite pizza place in all of NYC (maybe the world), exceptional service, unbelievably tasty pizza, great beer selection. Try the montak IPA with your pizza, and follow it up with their delicious tiramisu desert, you won't regret it.“

“We were a group of 23 to celebrate my sister’s birthday, and John, Alex, the staff could not have been more attentive and accommodating. The beer was awesome, the appetizers delicious, the venue just gorgeous, the music and the vibe so good!! We will be back again!“

“Yer basic taproom, a bunch of their own great beers on draught and can, mix of lager, IPA and silly stout. Bar staff that know the beers.

The afternoon I visited there was a DJ on playing some light rock, a nice amount of background ambience without getting in the way of having a conversation.“

“The man behind the register allowed me to use his bathroom despite having bought anything yet. His small act of kindness really tuned my day around. This store is also very neat and organized. I will be coming back here for beverages. This store also accepts Apple Pay which was very convenient.“

“We loved the restaurant, all the staff were very friendly, they helped us choose the best from their menu, the food is delicious, pleasant atmosphere, the best option we made to start our first day in NY. (It's Halloween, they gave our baby candy and a teddy bear).“

“Japanese curry is one of my favorite foods and I feel like it’s hard to get it just right - but A-un does! Their curry is the perfect thickness and spice level, and they give you plenty so you are’t left with more rice than curry. Seriously, the best I’ve had in NY and at a great price point with excellent service and ambience! Definitely returning.“

“I live in Forest Hills and I’ve been to this place a few times in the last few months with some friends and let me tell you their beer doesn’t taste any better then a cheap beer or ale from the 99 cent store. I really don’t like to write bad reviews to businesses especially with the pandemic and how bars/ restaurants are struggling to make ends meet today, but I really have had it with this so called owner that was beyond rude to me after I stopped by and used the restroom. I have come as a customer a few times and really needed to make an emergency restroom stop. Since I had patronized his establishment before, I didn’t think it would be a big deal to quickly use the restroom. When I got out of the restroom the owner was very rude and nasty to me, telling me to never come back to his bar. I asked him why and he said because I wasn’t spending money and that my type shouldn’t be allowed to come to his place. I was appalled at his behavior and attitude and told him I will gladly not ever return.“

“Fist time here and I found all aspects... Very Good Food, very pleasant setting and very entertaining, I love it, we will be back🇪🇨🥰👍“

“Our first stopped by just for a drink and end up drinks were nice plus excellent service. Before we leave the owner stopped by to say hi with warmly welcome and very nice conversation,really appreciate 😊

Parking: There were plenty of street parking and free paid after 7 pm“

“the best food and friendly spot ❤️“

“Super cute little local bar that serves local wine and beer. Was in there neighbourhood with my mom for an event that was canceled, so we went for a drink at this place to kill time before our dinner reservation. Bartender was very warm and inviting and the house red and white wines were very enjoyable. We also got a pretzel that was super satisfying. A great local neighbourhood bar that I'd be a frequent patron of if I lived in the area.“

“As a first time customer, I think this beer garden is a great place to come and hang with your friends if you plan on grabbing some drinks. I plan on recommending this place to other friends in the future.

The staff was also very accommodating.

Side note: When I tipped more than the tip suggestion I thought it was funny that one of the people came back out and told me I gave too much ? Take it! Well deserved ? **also one of the only reasons why I decided to leave a review!“

“Great for a magazine launch. Cult magazine“

“We were impressed with the food and service here. This is one of those places we'd walked by a hundred times and always said "we should check that place out one of these days". We finally did and liked it a lot. Nice bar and restaurant with a good menu with plenty of options, some with a Cajun flare.
We ordered the Q18 Burger (half ground beef half ground bacon), the Shrimp Poboy, the Mexican style corn on the cob and half a dozen chicken wings with mild buffalo sauce (they make all of there own sauces so we thought we'd play it safe on the first run). Everything was really good and we were very impressed with the wings. My wife mentioned that this is her new "wing place" so that's that. The burger was good and the poboy could have used a couple more shrimp, but was otherwise good too. The fries, both regular and sweet potato, were crispy and very hot. The wings were crispy under the sauce and I would call their spice level normal so the mild definitely had some heat but didn't get my head sweating.
Pretty lively bottled and draft beer list as well as some wine and cocktails which we didn't explore this visit. Several flat screens with various games on for the sports fans and the place was quiet enough to have a conversation without raising your voice much. The bathroom was clean and nice enough.
Our waitress Caitlin (sp?) was super friendly and fun and we didn't have any problems with our food or anything else. Very nice friendly local vibe here and we'll certainly be back to try more of the menu.
Easily recommend this place.“

“Great beer, great vibe. Can't wait to make it back there again!“

“Need friends, real blunt but loving ones? Come here.
This is a gritty but welcoming Pub that will show you what a drinking hole is, not pretentious.

The people make this establishments what it is and the bar keeps are even better. Different crowds at different times, great balance.“

“Great flavors and service! 😊Celebrated our daughter’s graduation dinner with family and friends!“

“Good vibes abound here. Bonus points for positive and queer-affirming energy from the patrons, staff, and owners. If you’re a serious beer drinker, Alewife offers a rotating cast of drafts, bottles, and cans that speak to the diverse flavors and sensations of beer in a laidback setting. On the one hand, because they frequently change offerings, some may find that the brewery is highly experimental in character, though if you’re serious about beer this is the soul of what I feel a brewery is meant to be; ever expanding, ever experimenting, bold with what’s on offer. True story: My partner who is generally against beer tried one of their aged bottles and was converted. Confused the beer for a sparkling rosé! This deserves some applause. Also deserves praise for the bands on display on Fridays and the weekend, great to see in our neighborhood. A very welcome presence in Sunnyside! Keep it up folks.“

“With its picturesque waterfront location, the club is a hub for social activities, recreation, and service. It offers a welcoming environment where members can enjoy a variety of entertainment options, maintain active lifestyles with tennis courts and playgrounds, and participate in family activities and sporting events. The club’s commitment to preserving a landmark in the community and providing a space for laughter, dance, and enjoyment makes it a cherished local institution.“

“Best old fashions in Astoria.“

“Always a pleasure coming to Rove! Tonite was an exceptional experience. I wish i got the bartenders name. Wednesday 4/24/24 between 7-9pm. Nice nails and curly hair. She was funny pleasant and took care of us. Long story short, after great apps and drinks, paid the bill and left…I dropped a $50 out of my pocket after I paid and left and was only 2 store fronts down and she came after me telling me you dropped a bill and gave it back. You don’t see this honestly often anymore. Kudos to her and Rove deserves her as an employee.“

“I visited Forest Hills Station after a delightful first-date lunch, and it immediately made a lasting impression. From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm and welcoming. We chose to sit at the bar, where Drew crafted the most incredible mango margaritas. His friendly conversation and positive energy made the experience even better.

On a return visit a few days ago, Drew had already left for the day, but the service and staff were just as fantastic. Now, this spot has become a cherished part of our dating story. We can’t wait to return for more great moments!“

“great ambiance, lots of different beers. highly recommend.“

“awesome atmosphere there“

“Friendly staff. Special price on Mondays for mazesoba dishes. The bao served like tacos are absolutely delicious.“

“A quaint cozy place. Good food and drinks and great service. My friend has been there before and recommended it. I’ll definitely recommend it myself and return.“

“I bring my team here for post fight celebrations since it is located right around the corner from Melrose Ballroom. They can accommodate our group size, have great bar food, there’s Guinness on tap, pickles backs and friendly bartenders. What more can you ask for?!“

“good atmosphere good service and as always food a beer delicious“

“Surprised to see there aren't any reviews on here. This place opened this past year. I've been walking by it every night and have always wanted to stop in. I'm pissed I didn't sooner. The Italian food here was so delicious. Had the Rigatoni with Vodka and Fried chicken. Pasta was cooked perfectly, sauce had perfect flavor and the chicken was cut thin and crispy.

Atmosphere was really awesome, they really made this look much more presentable than when Beach House was here. Nice floral stuff on the ceiling. Comfortable, cool pizza oven in the back.

Friendly staff

Can't wait to return again and try more things on the menu!“

“Great bar tenders. Friendly and attentive. Great, eclectic music. Good beer.“

“Great place to meet and to dine“

“Ziggle was incredible! While the meats were tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. The banchan (side dishes) added variety, and the staff was super helpful and attentive. A perfect spot for great food and a good time—I’ll definitely be back!
(Chris the new manager here was very kind and helpful)“

“The service at Il Mulino is exceptional! They literally fell over each other to serve us. Food was delicious and there’s an intimate feel to the place. They have two menus. They have a prix fixed menu that offers a more affordable dining experience. Something for everyone!“

“I wanna start by saying that that’s where the good espresso is. Been going there from the day it opened since it’s pretty convenient from where i live. Had a chance to taste all the coffees and wine as well. Pretty good overall. At the beginning I didn’t know anyone in that coffee shop and since then everyone has been nothing but friendly to me. Simply Amazing!“

“Nice cozy hangout to unwind and enjoy a glass of Cabernet . Excellent music not too loud so you can actually enjoy a conversation. Great snacks to munch on.“

“I am Happy to say I was introduced to The Woodlot thanks to a Yelp event. I enjoyed the atmosphere and service, I declared that I would definitely return.

A couple months later a fav and I decided to stop in after an event. Upon walking in Amanda (co-owner/partner) greeted me by name. What? How in the world did she remember me by name? That’s wild and the look on my face expressed my utter surprise. We all burst out in laughter.

Just like the first time we grabbed a seat @ the bar. I truly enjoyed the atmosphere and feel of the space. It gives spacious elevated comfort, if that's even an interior design thing.

Amanda was just as sweet and attentive as before as she managed to take care of everyone solo. I told her I returned like I said I would to try their wings and another cocktail off the menu.

My fav and I both opted for a couple of the FOCO U Martinis. For wings I went with the Honey Garlic and my fav went with the Classic Buffalo. The wings were fresh and hot, I can’t say for sure if they are the “Best Wings in Queens” just yet. They were good however, I need to try them a couple more times before I can decide.

Amanda thank you for your amazing service and impressionable personality. I think I found a go-to spot in Woodside.

Just A Note:

They do not offer ranch with the wings, only blue cheese (yuck). TBH its not needed the wings can stand on their own.“

“Not sure if there is food service? It is a friendly environment. But music is overkill, loud. Can't barely hear conversation among us, so we left almost instantly. Lots of neon, blue lights. Service is on point for customers. No one is left unattended. Great for crowd gathering.

Parking: Zero parking meter available as it's located on Roosevelt. Just find nearby blocks for 2hr max meter.“

“Pong Arena is a fantastic spot for a lively night out. With a dedicated beer pong table and an energetic karaoke setup, it's perfect for both friendly competition and sing-along fun. The atmosphere is vibrant, and the staff is always welcoming and attentive. Whether you're aiming for the cups or hitting the high notes, Pong Arena offers a unique blend of excitement and camaraderie, making it a must-visit for a memorable evening.“

“Sampler is my favorite Puerto Rican spot to go to late night. The DJ’s are always great. They play a wide variety of music that’ll keep you dancing all night. People typically start coming in after 10pm. The crowd tends to be mixed ages. The drinks are reasonably priced and strong. The service is quick and you won’t be waiting at the bar too long even with a crowd.

Parking: Street parking only“

“This little eatery was lovely and I'll be back again soon. When you enter you are surrounded in a "dia de los muertos" visual extravaganza. The place is filled with murals, art, ceramics and hundreds of tchotchkes celebrating the event.Ok I'll be honest. I only tried three things. The chef gave us a sample of some of this tamarind granita which I cannot remember what it was actually called but it was an iced tamarind dessert that was sort of sour, sweet and spicy all at the same time. It but all the buttons. Hard to describe. I got the enchiladas and then my friend and I shared a quesadilla with Huitlacoche. If you don't know what that is, Google it and then try it. Not were delicious. I tried the milder enchiladas but the sauce was fresh and flavorful.The place has been there for several years and it is so clean it looks brand new. The chef was so welcoming and proud and talked all about our different things.I cannot wait to go back!“

“The second time here... Very nice atmosphere, "real chill"... Very good music. People are kind.... And the girl who works here is so kind and polite. She is awsome. ❤️“

“Love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“If you want Korean fried chicken that’s not a chain and actually has laid back vibes please come here. Chicken is always ridiculously fresh and overall it’s a great spot for friends

Parking: It’s shared between the other venues in the area. Most of the time it’s full but might be just enough for one car to find parking. Never had to wait long for a spot“

“I love this store. Very organized, clean lots of products and has an inside Coffee Shop with the best Coffe in Brooklyn/Queens.“

“Total vibe before the Yankees game. We were in our St Louis Cardinals matching jerseys for our 5 yr anniversary. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. The twins were really nice and their bouncer, server, host added so much entertainment and a genuine touch.

The food recommendation, and I quote: 'look im Greek, so I know everything taste great". With that we order two beef gyros and two Bloody Marys *spicy*. The gyro was the best open faced sandwich I have ever tasted. The Bloody Mary did not disappoint, great flavor and wonderfully spicy.

If we ever have a chance to go to another Yankees game. We will be back.“

“Loved this place! Very cosy, Really friendly bar staff and nice crowd of people. Can’t wait to go back, will be there in February 2020!!!“
