The cheese and chacuterie plate at Little Town NYC
Regular readers of this space know that we are big fans of Little Town NYC in Manhattan’s Union Square. Below is a photo of the cheeseplate we sampled on a recent visit.
Manhattanhenge May, 2014
We took a break from bar crawling around NYC to take in Manhattanhenge. A few photos of the event below:
Paulaner Brauhaus on Manhattan's Lower East Side has reopened
After being closed for nearly two months for renovations, Paulaner Brauhaus on the Bowery has reopened for business! We are happy to hear that.
Today is the anniversary of Wisconsin statehood
On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin joined the Union as the 30th State. Our NYC bar of the day: Kettle of Fish, located at 59 Christopher Street in Manhattan’s West Village.
A review of Black Forest Brooklyn in Fort Greene
Located at 733 Fulton Street in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, Black Forest Brooklyn is a German beer bar and restaurant. Black Forest Brooklyn offers 14 taps of German imported beer (mainly the usual suspects, Hofbrau, Kostritzer, etc) and classic German-American fare. Fairly spacious, Black Forest Brooklyn offers six picnic tables, ten tables for two and a spacious bar area. We look forward to a return visit on our next pub crawl through the area.
On the excitement of Memorial Day Weekend
Memorial Day weekend just may be our favorite weekend of the year here at Pub Crawl NYC. Sometimes it’s appropriate for a quick trip out of town, other times, it’s good to stick around town and go on a NYC bar crawl or three. As the weekend marks the unofficial beginning of summer, the weather almost always delivers. It was on a Memorial Day weekend long ago that we participated in our very first pub crawl. So, whether you’re staying in town or traveling for the long weekend, have a great time, stay safe and happy pub crawling!
A review of Compagnie Des Vins Surnaturels in Manhattan's NoLita
Located at 249 Centre Street in Manhattan’s Soho/NoLita, Compagnie Des Vins Surnaturels is a great spot for wine & cheese! We recommend a visit here on your next Soho NYC wine bar crawl.
A review of Bar Nana in Manhattan's Meatpacking District
Located at 63 Gansevoort Street in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, Bar Nana is more of a late-night spot and not one to include on any NYC bar crawl. The place is open starting at 6pm Tuesday – Saturday, so that’s probably the best time to check out Bar Nana without having to wait in line or be on a list.
A review of Carroll Place in Manhattan's Greenwich Village
Change has come to Bleecker Street! Located at 157 Greenwich Street (in the old Kenny’s Castaways location), Carroll Place is a gastropub/wine bar/beer bar. Next door, at 155 Greenwich Street, the Back Fence has closed for business as well. We wonder what type of spot will open there. We digress. With numerous wines available by the glass/bottle, Carroll Place is a solid spot for the Greenwich Village NYC wine bar crawl. The fare leans toward Italian and Carroll Place has an open kitchen with a pizza oven. Along with a friendly staff and a decent tap beer selection, we look forward to returning to Carroll Place on a future NYC pub crawl.
