D.B.A.

Such a friendly staff ! We threw a dog party in their backyard & they were very accommodating! Great drinks, spacious backyard and an all-around good time. We love coming here with friends (and dogs!)

This place has the best beer selection and is always swarming w laid back good looking people. The back patio is one of my fave spots to post up for hours.

A mainstay in craft beer since the mid-90s, d.b.a. boasts a well-stocked list of bottled beer , enough taps that you won't run out of options, free Sunday bagels , and a hugely popular backyard garden .

Aah this place is so sweet... they have a HUGE backyard space (part heated/covered and part is outside). Some great local beers on tap (and Ithaca Beer Co. too), plus you can bring your own food!!!

The embodiment of the ideal local EV bar with a great beer list , awesome staff , laid back atmosphere , and a nice patio out back.

Love this bar ! The outdoor section is perfect for groups, the beers are pretty cheap and happy hour is until 9pm. No kitchen so feel free bringing in food!

Perfect place to have a holiday party (and you can bring your pups!) Their back patio is heated and enclosed!

Had a birthday party here last summer. Wasn't too crowded , ample outdoor seating space (both covered and uncovered) and they have a big wall that's nice to look at. Many beers on tap .

Great selection of whiskey in a divey and dark setting. Worth it for a good pour but on the expensive side.

Great beer and a nice outdoor area in the back. You can bring your own food, so get either Banh Mi from Nicky's or Lamb Burgers and Noodles from Xi'An Famous Foods.

Good beer selection - albeit mostly not on tap - and a very nice patio + real outdoor area in heart of East Village . A good “start the night” kind of spot with max 6-8

Awesome patio in the back with plenty of space; but, the outdoor seating closes at 10 so plan accordingly.

Love this dive bar with a mix of rock music and hip hop . The bartenders are so fun and took care of our bachelorette party. Got the whole bar to sing for our bride.

A nice place to take a friend and talk either in the bar or garden in the back. A handful of good beer on draft , more in bottles.

Rotating craft beers on tap and an awesome no-nonsense patio in the back. Great place to catch up with friends over drinks.

The backyard garden is a great place for groups. Solid beer list . Sunday trivia .

It's very much an east village over-crowded bar , so there's that. That said, they have a very nice craft-only beer selection . They also have outdoor space but it closes early due to noise complaints.

Amazing bar in the East Village . Great tap list and an outdoor enclosed area to enjoy your pint in the warmer months!

Come Sunday afternoon happy hour for the free Russ & Daughters bagels with toppings and relax on the back patio .

Big ass watering hole. Make sure u know how to read the menu...don't mistake the drafts for bottles

The big beer selection is really nice, unlike the staff 's demeanor. Only come if not too crowded , and make sure you have your drink order ready upon eye contact, otherwise, it's the next person.

Choose from over 60 beers , 60 single-malt scotches , and 40 tequilas . But the best part about this First Avenue bar is their dog-friendly beer garden .

Happy hour , outdoor terrace , good for groups , but service can be slow. Cider selection isn't bad, but it's a beer place. Ignore what's on tap , the great stuff is bottled.

If you're a beer connoisseur - this place is heaven. They have special bottles not listed on the menu. Ask them for what you want and they'll share secrets if you prove your knowledge . Read more

dba in the East Village has double the options for outdoor seating . If you're trying to avoid the sun or bugs , stay in the glass vestibule instead of heading to the tables all the way out back.

Super dog 🐕 friendly bar . Also swears against mainstream beer selections , which is cool. Also great place for birthdays with outdoor seating .

Best beer selection in the city - hands down. Don't know what you want? Ask you friendly bartender/ress. Multiple Lambics available.

Great beer choices , don’t come here if you are after a bud lite! But if you want craft beers with your dog or other peoples dogs, this place is perfect!

Board games ! Love the pickle backs . I think they're dog-friendly; there were 3 dogs here when I came!

Kind of a dingy bar , but once you get past all that you'll realize its a decent spot for quality beer and outdoor seating . Great for lazy Sundays.

There's a cat here who hangs out in the back office . Her name is Maggie. Sometimes she pops out of the office to entertain guests. By the looks of it, she doesn't like being picked up.

English cask ale , if you are a fan, otherwise plenty of other beers !! Obviously sit in the garden on the back!

Very dog friendly and great selection of beers on tap .

great beer list ; trivia afternoons are fun. only recently realized they are dog-friendly.

Chill vibe, and you can actually hold a conversation. Be sure to say hello to the resident bar cat, Meg. She's a sweetie!

Grab a five dollar beer at happy hour and then play games on one of the larger tables in the back.

Dog friendly , hard-drinking bar . The best kind of bar .

The vague name has beer geeks in the outdoor garden arguing about it means. One thing that’s certain? They have damn good beer—350 bottles and 16 taps worth.

Great bar with an outside area as well . Nice and not too busy.

If whiskey is your drink, then this is your place. Gets crowded on the weekends. Visit during the week and bring your dog.

Great outdoor garden , and always some good beers on tap . Super dog friendly too!

The outdoor garden is a wonderful little oasis in the Village . Solid tap beer menu .

Back patio is good for groups , get there early to snag a table on sunny days.

Beer selection is on point. Usually easy to get a table outside too.

The resident bar cat is named Maggie. When the back door is closed she comes and goes via the window at the back table.

Great beer selection and an outdoor patio .

Incredible beer selection . Cool backyard , but it closes early. Try St. Peter's Organic English Ale .

Reasonably priced beers , arcade games , cool bartenders , and great music ?! Yes please.

Don't piss off the regulars! They may try to fight you! This place is so chill , but the high alcohol content will get these folks angry quickly!

Great beer selection and cool outdoor/greenhouse seating area. Be careful of seats that smell like dog s#it, there are a lot of them because they allow dogs
