This is such a great dog bar with an awesome selection of craft beers . Baby strollers have to stay outside, while dogs can go inside. Heaven!

The Brew Noob

Great beer bar in the slope, with dozens of beers on draft , many of which are hard to find, and always a couple on cask . And a solid cider selection for your friend who isn't sure if they want beer .

Chris Cummings

Excellent and always changing variety of quality beers . Patio . Video Games . Darts . A staple since 1997, when it was the only spot for 10 blocks in any direction. One time I saw Steve Buschemi walk by.

Grab a pint and a table outside . Then ask for the takeout menus and order up some grub! Fido has to stay on his leash while he begs for scraps!

Kevin Skobac

Great local bar with regular rotating board of craft beers and large outdoor space

IrmaZandl ZandlSlant

Fabulous spot for outdoor get-togethers. Indoors looks a little drab. Beer focus but also wine and cocktails . No food.

Lears Fool

Sit on the patio outdoors with a pint, a moleskine, your partner and plan out your next adventure.

IndieWhere at Consciously

Bring you dog and your desire to throw down a beer or three. It's a bit dingie and it's great that way. Great for friends or a 10th date.

Maxwell Foxman

Great yard and solid craft beer . Usually some good local stuff mixed with craft beer from around the country .

Peter Fenger

Great beer , good bartenders , and the occasional dog. What's not to like? One of my favorite spots in park slope.

Brew York

Whether you're an indoors or outdoors person... whether it's 75 and sunny or 30 and snowing... as long as you like great craft beer , you belong at this Park Slope mainstay.

Miguel de Leon

Outdoor seating is clutch in the summer. There's also a hilarious pub quiz on Monday nights

Lisa L

Outside seating , variety of craft beers , cozy date spot .

Marvin Tumaneng

Dog friendly with an wide selection of craft draft beers . Don't forget the dog treat jar at the side end of the bar !

Luke

Cute pub with a good beer list , old school interior, and a very buzzy patio situation

Serious Eats

Good craft beer list and an (often-packed) patio , but you'll have to get food delivered.

JC Martinez-Sifre

Some kind of trivia game going on here at the time of this post. I'll admit, I'm curious to come back and play in earnest; see what it's all about.

Margarita Krup

Great patio and beer selection . A favorite park slope location.

Jeff Kirsch

Great outside space for dogs and kids, but look out for the rat poison stations under the benches .

John

Casual chill place, bring your dog, order pizza . Wide variety of micro brews .

Daniel McDonough

Good selection of draught beers . Sit outside if you can inside is dark. Like really dark.

Sabrina

Great patio and local brews . Try a beer from The Other Half.

Michael Donovan

Great outdoor space , good selection of beer on tap

Alex Damashek

This place is a park slope standard. Try a black and tan . There are darts in the back. Or sit in the garden and chill with yuppies and their dogs.

Marc Mayer

Excellent beer selection . Good happy hour prices, too.

eric bornemann

Get here early and sit outside all day long- idyllic Brooklyn.

Outdoor area is good. Old Golden Hen on tap is amazing!

D.J. Sullivan

The 'Neat-pour' of Jameson is $6.50 & you get an obscene amount of liquor

M. Waskom

ONE TIME I CAME HERE AND COULDN'T GET A SEAT AT THE BAR bc 2 DOGS HAD THEIR OWN STOOLS. STILL A CHILL PLACE, THOUGH.
