Located at 52 Harrison Place in Brooklyn’s East Williamsburg, Lantern Hall, located in what looks like an old garage, is part café / part beer bar.  Opening for business as early as 8am on weekdays, Lantern Hall serves coffee until 4pm.  The beer selection included 12 draught beers, a mix of local and U.S. craft beers.  During our mid-afternoon visit, the space definitely had a café-that-serves-beer vibe to it, but we imagine that vibe changes to full-on beer bar in the later hours of the day. We found Lantern Hall’s staff friendly and helpful.  Lantern Hall is definitely a spot to visit on your next East Williamsburg NYC bar crawl.
