50 Best Bars near Rockaway Park

“My friends and I had a lovely afternoon at The Rockaway Hotel Pool house. We were greeted by a warm and friendly hostess, Isabella, who made us feel so welcomed. Our beautiful table was in the perfect spot to take in all of what the Rockaway Hotel has to offer. The outside bar and Pool house are exquisite. The pool was bustling with excitement. Our waiter, Andrew, was polite and helpful . I highly recommend coming to The Rockaway Hotel because their staff is highly professional and attentive.“

Welcoming atmosphere, ambiance perfect, excellent choice of menu and the drinks keep flowing. Great live music too or DJ. I enjoy having my night caps here and a place to relax. All the best to Kat @ The Rose Den 🌹. Well done.“

“Do not miss this place! Great food, great energy, thoughtful and kind staff, delicious wines and araks from the Levant, creative flavors, authentic food but with unexpected twists that made everything stand out. I would eat here again and again if we lived nearby. Good energy and vibes even on a weeknight.“

“Absolutely beautiful small cozy restaurant with amazing food and great service. Special thank you to the bartender, I ordered 3 different coctails and asked for no syrup or sugar and they were made perfect to my taste. Roasted beet salad is to die for, octopus amazing and the skirt stake is something to come back for.“

“Fun indoor/outdoor dining environment and delicious food make for a nice night out!“

“We had an absolute blast! If you are looking for a spot with incredible live music and a fantastic vibe, this is it.
The bands were phenomenal, they were absolutely working the room, bringing so much energy, and playing amazing sets. Kept the whole place alive.
The drinks were excellent and expertly made, and we had a lot of fun sharing a bunch of delicious appetizers. It’s the perfect recipe for a great night out in Brooklyn. We will definitely be back for more live music soon!“

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

“Three for dinner. We split all dishes so tried a nice section of the mention. Everything was at least very good, and some dishes rose to great. It’s all very classic Italian, so the thrill is how platonically ideal each dish was. The arancini salad and chicken parm were the least successful to our group; not bad, very tasty, but not the best version of parm, and not the best salad with savory crunch. The lobster diavola was more iconic. Just delicious, no complaints. The steak was also just right. Long beans were a great side, although not really Italian, not really south Asian.. We shared a great and very reasonably priced bottle of wine. Definitely will be back,“

“Excellent burgers“

“this is a very cute karaoke bar with good food options and lots of drink options. The service was great. I really enjoyed my time here. I also love the private room. They aren’t too expensive as well as the food prices. I recommend coming for a happy hour as they are really cheap as well would come again.“

“Everything. Great place. Great summer place. Now it will be open 365 days a year“

“Food was great! And bonus, the husband/wife team at Concrete were so welcoming and made you feel like they had you over for dinner.“

“Union Hall is one of the best venues we have ever performed at. Not only is it a fun and charming place, the staff are super hospitable, friendly, and accommodating. From planning to execution, Nora and Neel were very courteous and helpful. On the day of, Erin, Neel, and even the security guard Danny let us in an hour before our contract stated and helped us get set up early. Nothing but compliments and recommendations for these guys!“

“Perfect event for farewell evening! Thank you!“

“Absolutely fantastic, touching documentary.“

“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.“

“Amazing food and atmosphere at“

“Nice cozy neighborhood spot good for drinks and appetizers and food great ambiance“

“This is hands down one of the most special places in Brooklyn, maybe all of NYC. Something about Barzakh inherently feels like home from the second you walk in the door. Every time I’ve been here, the vibe has been unique. At night, it feels exciting, and carries an element of alternative nightlife. During the day, it’s analog, cozy, like your own back yard, and during community events, it’s a place for folks from every background to come together and appreciate a new form of art they may not have been exposed to before. This cafe is everything life in NYC should be—community driven, exciting, familiar in some ways, foreign in others.

Special shoutout to the owner and the staff. Some of the kindest people you’ll ever meet.“

“Cute bartender and great beer. 🍺“

“Great service. Very big place. Great for large gatherings. I went during the day to have a drink. It was pretty empty at that time, which is fine by me. There's a lot of seating area, including couches. I tend to like cozier places. They also have a photo booth. They have a good Happy Hour. Hannah is a great bartender and very nice. I would come back even though, as I mentioned before, I like cozier places“

“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.“

“Incredible selection of craft beer. Great vibe, close to many great places to eat, the Barclay Center, Gowanus. Heated outdoor beer garden.“

“What a gem in BK! Not sure how I didn’t know about Trove before this but I’m so glad that now I do. Came here on Friday with a group of friends and it was wonderful we stayed til close. Their wine selection is so well curated, they had some juicy natural reds that we loved. The staff are cool, funny, and delightful. The meatballs were amazing, we got both the little gem and Caesar salad and both were excellent. Can’t remember which pizzas we got but we finished every one. Excited to come back, thanks for a beautiful dinner Trove!“

“Best menu- Delish good and ambience! Had the best time tonight!!!! Been customers for almost nine years and we love our staples💕💕💕“

“It was a very wonderful experience. The restaurant atmosphere is spot on, large with high ceilings, nice decor and comfortable seats. The service is wonderful though I did have a little bit of trouble understanding the explanation of the dishes (but the online menu tells you everything you need to know). The dishes tasted much better in the beginning than towards the end. The veal dish was not very tender. And their duck pie fell a little short on flavor. But very nice touch at the end moving to the couches and having tea/cake. The Polaroid pic at the end was cute.“

“Love this place . Nice drinks and beautiful environment . Very cute bartenders. Lindo demais . ❤️😎“

“I really loved this place. It has a nice indoor and maybe an even nicer outdoor area. The staff was very kind too. I came here with a mission. 😎 I’m a huge fan of tripa so of course i tried the TRIPA taco and i chose ASADA too with steak. I really loved both, the textures, the flavours, everything was great. I loved the texture of the tripa tha most!!! Oh and the texture of the tortilla… wow, i loved that too. 😋“

“Server was great just had yucca fries but they were hot and yumm and the ailoi was delicious my husband had the burger and he loved it. But the cocktails were great and the ambiance was just what we were looking for. We will definitely be back.“
