Because it marks the unofficial end of summer, Labor Day always brings a touch of sadness to us at Pub Crawl NYC.  Summer in NYC offers many opportunities of beautiful weather for NYC bar crawls and other city exploration.  September is still a good weather month in NYC and, if lucky, October can be as well.  But, those two months just aren’t quite the same as June, July and August.  Either way, we look forward to many more NYC pub crawls in the months ahead.  Happy Autumn!

It’s been a while since our last bar crawl through the northwestern corner of Brooklyn.  In that time, Fresh Kills, a cocktail spot named after the old Staten Island landfill, opened at 161 Grand Street.  A bit further north, Falcon Laundry, a cocktail bar with a rooftop, opened at 65 North 7^th Street.  Finally, Brooklyn Barge Bar, located at 3 Milton Street in Greenpoint, is an outdoor spot open for its first full summer.  We hope to make it to Brooklyn Barge Bar before the summer of 2016 is over.  We look forward to describing each spot briefly in this space.

We haven’t pub crawled through Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens recently.  Since our last visit, a handful of cocktail-focused spots have opened.  Le Boudoir, at 135 Atlantic Avenue, is a French cocktail and wine bar.  Approximately a mile east, just south of Atlantic Avenue at 104 Bond Street, is Robert (connected to the restaurant Building on Bond, aka Bob).  Further south and west from Robert, at 387 Court Street, is August Laura, in Italian cocktail bar.  Once we’ve visited these spots, we look forward to providing brief reviews in this space.
