If I had to choose only one bar in New York City, Clover Club would be it. They have fun Gilded Age-ish snacks and signature drinks, plus lots of champagne. -Alex McCord, Real Housewives of New York C
Back by popular demand after closing, The Brooklyn Inn has a sleek vintage decor and was mentioned in The Village Voice's top ten jukebox bars!
Cool bar in an old Italian Social Club...like where the mobsters hang out on tv. Riposte is a good drink, small place, good one to hole up in.
The best Williamsburg bar not in Williamsburg. Important bullet points: friendly staff; proper ice cubes; TURKEY LEG SANDWICH.
It just might be the coziest rooftop in Williamsburg—and with as much French spoken as in Paris. The happy hours rock with joie de vivre that is inimitably Juliette.
Live jazz on Fridays and Sundays from 9-12. Daily happy hour's from 5-7 now, but Tom pours a generous glass, so you always get more than your money's worth.
A good choice for a casual bite, a celebratory feast, and everything in between. Reynard is hip without being exclusive, and everyone in your party will love the rustic fare. [Eater 38 Member]
Looks and acts like a dive bar, with cheap, strong drinks. However, don’t over look the food, especially their Fried Chicken.
Aside from it being a great space in general, the thing I admire the most about The Counting Room is that the bartenders actually give a sh*t about mixing drinks. Impressive cocktails, fairly priced.
Classic arcade games, extensive beer selection and a fun atmosphere for you, your friends and your dog.
As shocking as this sounds, they have what are probably the best wings in the city. They taste straight out of Western New York.
A retractable roof, 13 Central European beers on tap (try Czech Krusovice Imperial), and great food. What's not to love about this spacious beer garden named for the West Slavic god of hospitality? Leggi tutto.
Well-made cocktails with decent drinking food to match, and a nice backyard space for warm weather.
The fried chicken + bacon and cheddar waffles, with their 3 choices of butter, are incredible. Pies N Thighs, you're still my main squeeze. But this place is my chicken on the side.
An aluminum-sided greasy spoon. The food is excellent, the vibe is pitch-perfect Williamsburg, and while supplies last, their rib-eye steak is as good as anything at Peter Luger. [Eater 38 Member] Leggi tutto.
Neighborhood cocktail bar with a food menu centering on hefty portions of grilled meat.
Bacon paradise. The Mac n Cheese with bacon is unreal, same goes for the baked-to-order cornbread with jalapeño and bacon. They even put bacon in the country fried steak.
They may be focused a little more on food than coffee here, but the shop—whose tiny tables make it feel more Continental chic than library-like—is long on charm.
Trophy bar is usually low-key, unless it’s Saturday night. They have good DJ nights, a nice backyard and a great sculpture garden. -Veronica Vasicka, Founder, Minimal Wave Leggi tutto.

Roof top seating .. u can order and bring your food to the roof top seating .. they will consider it a take out order
OTB's cheeseburger is a classic, straightforward rendition, but it's the crisp, chili-brined fries that are the real winner.

Nice spot. Plenty of seating and casual atmosphere. Great place to grab a few drinks before seeing a show at Music Hall of Williamsburg since its just down the street. Cheap drinks.
Old school rap in the front and lots of good bands/djs in the back. Can't go wrong. Don't forget some cash in case there's a cover.
New. Ambiance? Simple & chic with lots and lots of dark wood. Food? Roasted Salmon Ramen(Spicy Miso Dashi, Wakame (here it is - http://goo.gl/93uKW), scallion) tasty & perfect on a cold winter night Leggi tutto.
My favorite bar in NYC/BK. Architectural, beautiful, chill vibe with crazy dancers, hip hop, even a great sports viewing spot w a projector and tvs. Perfect mix of offbeat, smart interesting people.
“Glady’s…seems determined to do for the sandwich what Franny’s helped to do for pizza, elevating it from pedestrian fast food to something worth sitting down and waiting for.” Leggi tutto.
Be prepared to queue up for a table: al di là is one of the most popular spots on Park Slope’s restaurant-packed Fifth Avenue. Chef Anna Klinger's fresh take on Italian fare is worth the wait. Leggi tutto.
Really cool place in the South side of WB - Good wines and cocktails, really nice music and funny bartenders. Did not try the food but will come back!
Worth the trip out towards Gowanus to check out this new brewery. Fantastic selection of rare and unique beers plus their own stock is great. Try the sour beer with some BBQ!
Only $5 for a sampling flight of three wines! The staff is friendly, the wine is tasty and the atmosphere is relaxing. Plus, it's a fun and free day trip out of the City via the IKEA Water Taxi.
New to the hip Williamsburg food scene, these spot serves up delicious tacos (especially the beef cheek tacos) and delicious margaritas (our favorite is the Watermelon). Try to snag a seat outside!

The bar's backyard is outfitted with bright blue and red tables and benches, tiki-hut roofs and funky Pacific Island-themed torches and decor. It's a fun little hidden gem. Leggi tutto.
Lucali still serves some of the city's finest pizzas, and the dining room is a real beauty. [Eater 38 Member]
A beautiful outdoor space, a great pinball machine, and most importantly, a carefully selected list of American and European beers. But ignore Thrillist's tip - it's NOT a "beer garden!"
Hot Bird's outdoor space, built in a former auto-body shop facing Atlantic Avenue, is best experienced on a sunny day, when you can crowd around picnic tables on the expansive patio and sip drafts. Leggi tutto.
With cocktails, beer, and $1 oysters daily until 7pm, the Narrows is a Bushwick favorite that also features a welcoming backyard and a handful of late-night snacks.
Mozz grilled cheese is so sweet n yummy :) french fries are good too! Nice backyard and a cozy bar space with a friendly staff
This trattoria, with dishes like bluefish ragù, is a pretty and unexpected addition to the neighborhood. Outside of the pizzas, you go back to Saraghina to try something new. Skip the panzanella. Leggi tutto.
Nowadays is like a giant suburban backyard, complete with grass to lie in, picnic tables, and a sweet ping pong table to challenge your friends on. Leggi tutto.
Saw a soul band play here last night. It was just so fucking amazing and they had a great wine and cocktail list. This is literally the bar of my dreams!
Great quaint neighborhood place with cute rooftop, friendly staff. Pork Betty bento is great.
The chicken here—specifically, the Nashville Style Hot Chicken—is spectacular, fiery and alive, whether ordered Hot or Extra Hot (you can opt for Regular too). Leggi tutto.
Brainchild of former Morimoto chefs, the cash-only joint offers 4 types of ramen (miso, soy, veggie, and kimchi), plus a weekly special. There’s no way to go wrong, but the kimchi ramen can’t be beat.
Best croissants aux Amandes in NYC. All other pastries are great too as is the bread. Lunch sandwiches rule as does the spicy hummus.
Monday's 3-course menu here is a big hit. Its famed fried chicken with cheddar waffles is the star of the meal. $25 per person.
Great brunch. Good vibe, outdoor seating, and a more interesting menu than normal. The trout po boy and the socca egg dish both standouts.
Great neighborhood spot. Burger, fries, coffee is great here. Designed and owned by architects (I think) next door, extremely cool. My dog loves it too cause he gets tied to an anchor with us outside.
A charming (and tiny!) restaurant that brings its own point of view to seasonally-minded American cuisine.
Great date spot for Michelin starred New American at reasonable prices. The steak and short ribs was fantastic and big enough for two. Crispy artichoke salad and pastries, too.
Brick chicken, marrow bones, and oysters are all dishes that send Manhattanites running over the Williamsburg bridge to try this restaurant. We think their lattes are worth the bridge run!
61 Local pours locally produced brews only, from its 14 taps. With a low-key crowd, ample natural light and long communal tables, it's the perfect spot to post up for an entire afternoon. Leggi tutto.
Good wifi, delicious food, and very friendly vibe. It's a relatively small place and there isn't a bathroom, but haven't had any trouble getting a seat. My new neighborhood spot!
Although laptop seating is limited, this is a good spot in the area to work later in the evening since they're open until 9pm. Pretty good Stumptown, free wifi, plugs along the wall, and food.
I enjoyed this place. Good bagels & they make some great egg sandwiches too. The owner is friendly & asked if I wanted the same thing again when I walked in the next day. I will be back again.
Go for the Stumptown coffee, stay for the impeccably designed interior. Seating next to their enormous windows provide the best views for people watching while you finish your fresh brewed coffee.
One of the best places for thin crust pizza in Brooklyn. Shorter wait than Grimaldi's. The no 1 special has great toppings. Can anyone go wrong with pancetta, mozzarella, scallions, and truffle oil?
We’ve raved about the meats here, but don’t overlook the veggies. Hold off your carnivorous needs and start with a divine Beet Salad or baco-licious Farm Salad.
Straightforward classics like smoked brisket and baby back ribs are always a strong choice, but there are also options like pork belly tacos and a lamb belly banh mi. Leggi tutto.
best bar in Brooklyn. Live music in a setting that will make you wanna come back. Cheap, good cocktails.

What a beautiful and delicious addition to the neighborhood! A charming backyard, negroni on tap, incredible service, and fresh pasta for sale to-go.
Must haves- cacio e Pepe garlic knots, Swiss chard pizza, garganelli, and beets (I don't even like beets). Cheese pizza was ok. Fun vibe & cool decor.
Awesome value for prix fixe dinner. Tons of appetizers and starters, dessert was amazing. You only have to pick a main, which makes for an easy choice. Would totally recommend for a special night.
The Detroit style deep dish pizza is quote good (Roni Supreme), but the double stack burger is absurdly good -- top 3 in the city and big enough to share.
Bocce, beer, and Kentucky beer cheese: It's all up for grabs at this friendly and iconic Brooklyn Heights bar.
Warm, romantic lighting and a homey, vintage Italian vibe. Clearly a loved spot by locals. Good for dates - I saw a few families during dinner too. The spaghetti bolognese was just right.
Maybe the only dive bar on Atlantic, but it's definitely a great one. Pool table in the and karaoke on Friday nights, and cheap beer. no drafts.
Quiet and never crowded, with a beer list that features the best of what upstate new york has to offer. Couldn't ask for a better neighborhood bar.
Great spot in bedstuy. Solid beer and shot choices and various other specials. Food is good but if you want to save a buck you can always pop next door for a bucket and wash it down with a drink.
A new Clinton Hill American restaurant just opened called, Sisters. They serve casual comfort food at an affordable price. They also feature a back barroom with a DJ booth, perfect for parties. Leggi tutto.

Thanks to its sprawling back patio, this place can be a total sh*tshow in the summer - but get yourself an order of grilled corn and that perfect cuban sandwich.
“Neighborhood spot” and “mindblowing food” -- take advantage of the all-day spot for brunch, breakfasts, or dinner any night you want something just a little more elevated than your usual go-to.
This place is everything you ever wanted and more. Artisanal groceries, bar with tons of local options on tap, insane menu(hello bacon and caviar topped potatoes) and an outdoor area to top it all off
best dive bar in Williamsburg, featuring live country/bluegrass (those nights are best) and cheap ass drinks to make you forget your achin heart. go for the 24 oz Narraganset for $4 or the bourbon tea
A great spot for tacos and drinks. All of the tacos are pretty delicious but the duck carnitas stand out. Be sure to grab some hot sauces and marinated onions and use a combo to your liking.
Can get crowded especially week days after work. Clean, hip vibe. Outdoor space in front for the summer. Tables in the back, good for groups.
Great selection of beer (lots of things you might not find elsewhere!) for solid prices. It's cozy and dark inside (clearly a great date spot), but there's also a big back patio for larger groups.
This tiny, well-designed bar mostly made of wood and fancy wallpaper has an impressive Bloody Mary menu and an even more impressive happy hour from 2-7pm. Come for drinks and stay for the great music. Leggi tutto.

New spot in Gowanus. Delicious cocktails (I like the booziest ones) and the sardines and the meat and cheese plates are great!!
Very cozy, cool spot in Crown Heights. My friends and I were able to hang out at the bar while we waited for a table. Pizza was very yummy! And the $2 yuengling happy hour was too good to pass up!
This cafe is a laptop nomad's Brooklyn dream. Find a seat in their cafeteria styled seating the quiet main room while you sip on a cup of freshly brewed Stumptown coffee.
This is one of the best restaurants in Brooklyn. No question! Innovative food that's incredibly delicious. Amazing flavors. Th pasta dishes are excellent and the Paloma cocktail is awesome.
Solid coffee, but even better environment to read or meet with friends. Amid a hurried city, this is a place you can get away to sip, think, talk & chill. (And there's lots to do close by on 5th Ave!)
Hong Kong fried chicken sandwich is ramen crusted and amazing. Roast pork Lo mein is also great
Best food in the slope. Period. Everything is really good. Skip al di la and bring your behind here, especially for the $27 prix fix. Yum!!
Fantastic spot for drinks, and they have a killer brunch menu with some unique dishes. Good windows for people-watching and a little outdoor seating.
Assemble a group of friends and squeeze into one of the communal dining tables in the cavernous joint, or belly up to the prodigious bar, well-stocked with bourbon and (natch) Lone Star beer.
Friendly bartenders. Cozy, white-plaster-wall Irish pub vibes. And really do get the homemade soda bread with butter.
Easygoing bartenders, 20 taps bearing names like Ommegang and AleSmith, a chilled-out atmosphere and free pretzels—this new Crown Heights bar has all the elements of a top-notch neighborhood alehouse.

Beer is the main event here but you'd be making a mistake to overlook the food menu: great burgers and sandwiches and really good wings among other things. It's all good.
Casual and loungey. Dark and cozy atmosphere. Decent prices. Plenty of space for a group of friends to meet up! Nice sized bar food menu. Good to know: $15 minimum for cards!
Standout cocktails include the Mr. Howell ($9), with single-malt scotch, aged rum, lime juice, and maple syrup. Try it with a grilled cheese sandwich, which stacks up with the best in Brooklyn. Leggi tutto.
Amazing seafood, drinks, and awesome atmosphere. And did I mention the great East River views? 🌃🍷🐟
It's the perfect upscale but not stuffy date dinner. Menu often changes, but we loved the lamb porchetta, carrot crepes, trout, and chawanmushi. Tasty cocktails, too; enjoy them in the big backyard.
Cool bar dining scene, delicious cocktails, great service. Pappardelle w Veal Bolognese was over-the-top rich. Bagna Cauda was waay too anchovie-y and I love anchovies.
Not only do they know their bourbon, but it also might be the best grilled cheese in Brooklyn. Leggi tutto.
Tasty, spicy Chinese food with surprisingly good (tiki) cocktails. Like a less crazy Mission Chinese, or a more affordable Red Farm. Pork soup dumplings, garlic eggplant, and rice cakes with sausage.
Happy hour cocktails are a great deal. They seem pricey at first, but then you take a sip and realize that you're really getting your money's worth (In other words, these drinks are strong.).
Very often the home to Digital DUMBO events, this spot is pretty much in the heart of NYC's growing, creative technology scene. — Ben T., Creative Leggi tutto.
This Prospect Heights bistro serves a pretty standard classic Bloody Mary, but adventurous drinkers should try the fiery Bloody Maria, served with Jalapeño-infused tequila. Leggi tutto.

Super chill place with great service and delicious food. Great selection of beers and big outdoor space. What else could you want?!?!
The food here is great, and same with the service, but I'd avoid coming here before 8pm unless you want your ambiance to be screaming kids.
Dine outside in the back patio and enjoy amazing Falafel, Babaghanouj, Lentil Soup and Z’aatar Bread.
This romantic, rustic, farmhouse-style wine bar's got a warm fire roaring all winter long, where you can settle in until winter fades into a distant memory. Leggi tutto.
Never heard bad music at this bar, always danceable but not your typical pop. Bartenders are cute & crowd are hipsters, young professionals, neighborhood folks, & the random celebrity every so often.
Simple, fresh, delicious food at a reasonable price, served in a cozy setting. Feels like a home cooked meal with all the neighbours. If I lived here this would definitely be a fave.
Sit at the chef's counter for brunch if you can. Small menu, but pretty reliable for both food and cocktails. Brussels sprouts (when in season) and sticky date cake are great.
Dinner here is absolutely out of this world. Wonderfully curated dishes that complement one another. You have to surrender to the experience - order lots of dishes to share. One of my favorite spots.
Everything here is phenomenal, but it's the falafel sandwich that so many walk through the door for. Get it loaded, the hot sauce doesn't obscure any of the other flavors, it simply adds to them.
Court Street serves two versions of its breakfast sandwich but the B+B is the clear winner, because, as Hillary Dixler notes: Why would you not put bacon on it if there's an option to put bacon on it? Leggi tutto.
gyro and souvlaki platters are delicious. so much great, home cooked food for reasonable prices. pita is fresh, okra is delicious, and sides are on point.
Basic quiet neighborhood café serving Toby's Estate coffee. Bright space, free wifi and tables to work from.
Great little coffee shop, with good coffee and baked goods. And a nice work space.
Hip and cozy; grade A neighborhood joint. Warm digs and service, all natural wines, and an ever-changing menu with delicious mainstays: lamb burger, clam toast, olive oil cake. Great brunch, too.
Gorgeous restaurant, perfectly situated on a Ft. Greene corner; ideal for a date. Menu changes often, but I loved the fairytale eggplant and the chicken with heirloom beans.
Try the Chef's Steak -it hits the table with an expertly charred crust, the interior marbled & juicy. Served with a smoky salsa verde and caramelized onion-spiked mashed sweet potatoes. Leggi tutto.
'70s comfort food in a modern space. Loved the Mac & Cheese and meatloaf, but was glad I shared. Super rich!
Very impressive rotating beer list at the Park Slope bar, which keeps us coming back. We especially love to play some pinball while we sip our brew.
From the same folks that brought you Rocka Rolla and Skinny Dennis. Great vibes, good music, and cheap beer. You can't go wrong.
Cozy. Great ambiance. Friendly staff, well-versed in wine recommendations. Take your parents here when they visit.
