Located at 7 N. 15th St, Dirck the Norseman is a brewpub on the Greenpoint/Williamsburg border in Brooklyn. Numerous house beers available (see photo of beer menu below). The food leans toward German fare. We look forward to returning on our next NYC bar crawl through the area!
Pub Crawl NYC wishes you a safe and Happy Canada Day. Our NYC bar of the day: Ontario, located at 559 Grand Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
A view looking south from Bar 54, located at 135 West 45th (the name “Bar 54” comes from the fact that it’s on the 54th floor of the building), which is, for now, the highest rooftop bar in NYC.
Located at 37-19 Broadway in Astoria, Queens, Oliver’s is a welcomed addition to any Astoria NYC beer bar crawl. Oliver’s offers 16 tap beers, representing a good mix of local and other U.S. regional craft beers. Another 30 beers available out of can/bottle. Oliver’s is spacious and we look forward to returning on our next pub crawl through the area!
Located at 47-10 in Long Island City, Queens, Woodbines takes over the former Lounge 47 space. Woodbines is a bar/gastropub; Front half is bar, while the back half is dining area. While Lounge 47 had a backyard space for patrons, Woodbines’ entrance to the backyard had an “employees only” sign, so perhaps the backyard area was under renovation during our visit. Woodbines, a good addition to any Vernon Blvd NYC bar crawl, offers 12 beer taps. Food menu consists of mainly upscale pub food. Try the Woodbines burger!
As we continued our recent rooftop NYC bar crawl, we enjoyed the view shown below. The photo looks north, from atop 125 East 27th Street, where you will find the recently-opened rooftop bar, Roof at Park South.
You need to check out this spot: Located at 7915 Third Avenue in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, Windy City Ale House is a Chicago-friendly bar! A great spot to catch a Chicago sports game on TV. Also a good spot for a Bay Ridge craft-beer bar crawl!
A breathtaking view of Central Park, looking north from the outdoor deck of The Rooftop, located at 124 West 57th Street. A good spot for any Rooftop NYC bar crawl.
Located at 22-72 31st Street (right at Ditmars Blvd stop on the N/Q subway), Sweet Spot is a sports bar/lounge. Sweet Spot offers 24 tap beers, solid bar food, but something feels a bit overdone here. Perhaps too many TVs make it slightly oversaturated. For World Cup watchers, this will be a great spot to watch. For all you American football fans, we imagine that Sweet Spot would make for good college football Saturday or NFL Sunday viewing.
Now that the local weather has (finally!) turned to seasonal late Spring-like weather, we’ve included several rooftop bars around Manhattan on some of our recent pub crawls. Among others, The Roof (atop the Viceroy hotel in Midtown), Bar 54 (also in Midtown) and the Roof at Park South. In the coming days, we’ll share photos of the views from these rooftop spots.
