Just visited this bar, and it quickly became one of my favorite spots! The music and atmosphere are on point—it’s lively, fun, and the perfect place to unwind. The space is really well-designed, with plenty of room and lots of tables, so you never feel cramped, even on a busy night. One of the best things about this place is the variety of games and entertainment they offer. Whether you’re into playing pool, darts, or just enjoying some good old-fashioned board games, there’s something here for everyone. If you’re looking for a great night out with good vibes, this is definitely the bar to hit up. Can’t wait to go back!

This bar was a fun surprise to find in Brooklyn on a Friday night! Drinks were good (though pricey), didn’t have anything to eat here. A big sell was the big ball in canisters game going on towards the DJ set. Overall great time and excellent service.

Such a hidden gem! Such an awesome outdoor sports bar - I can't get over how much space there is. So many outdoor tv's, tons of games and great service. Super dog friendly. The perfect place to go to watch the game with a large group of people.

A solid event space. The tables are good the drinks aren’t bad, they have great events and it’s a good atmosphere. The drinks aren’t bad a little on the high side, it this is a great outdoors spot which is hard ti come by in nyc.

I’ve come here a few times since the new space opened for the Drag Race viewing parties (which are otherwise excellent). However, there are two separate sections - one where you can actually see the hosts and one where you’re sat outside with little/no cover. People get there *so* early and reserve seats for their 10-12 friends. Even if you arrive an hour early (which my friends and I did this past Friday), you can’t actually get a seat inside where the true viewing party is happening. Reserving seats for multiple people needs to be stopped. If they aren’t there, they don’t have a seat. Seats are for paying customers who are in the venue. The friend who purchased tickets for this requested a refund because we had *nowhere* to sit and ended up leaving before the show began.
