This is a great place for a lazy Saturday or Sunday afternoon. The bartenders are lovely and the beer selection is extensive.

Heidi

Corner location. Good for groups . $5 frozen margarita/piña colada . Mixed drinks $6. $20 credit card minimum . Bartender was nice despite a huge influx of BK gentrifiers.

Rafael Gonzaque

Great corner view of the avenue + decent prices + good whiskey selection . What's not to love about this place?!

Cole Kennedy

Been a bit less of a laid back neighborhood spot since they blew up on TikTok, but still a standby, especially for frozen drinks in the summer.

Marie La Rue

The unofficial place for people watching in Greenpoint. Sit outside, sip a beer and enjoy the constant flow of passerbys

Ryan Jorgenson

Everything a neighborhood spot should be: good drinks, full but never obnoxiously crowded , solid music , and no TVs .

Lots of natural light from the windows in this spacious place. A good spot to get a little bit of work done too.
