NYC bars we've visited recently
In Manhattan, we had the pleasure of visiting The Bar Room (at 117 East 60th Street), Sel Rrose (1 Delancey Street) and Eastwood (221 East Broadway), among others. Over in Brooklyn, we hit the Park Slope locations of Terroir and Beauty Bar; in Carroll Gardens, we went to Lavendar Lake. Reviews of some forthcoming. In short, we had a good time at all of them and their definitely worth a visit.
Happy Independence Day!
Happy 237th Birthday to the good ol’ USA! Pub Crawl Brooklyn wishes you a safe and happy July 4th.
Happy Canada Day!
We wish we could recommend some spots for a Canada-themed NYC bar crawl; alas, there are not many, if any, such spots in NYC. If you know of such a spot, please drop us a comment.
Some beer wisdom from Pub Crawl Brooklyn
Seen recently at the bar Brooklyn Stoops in Bed-Stuy.
NYC bars we've visited recently
In Manhattan, we finally got to Eastwood and Beverly’s, both on the Lower East Side. In Brooklyn, we found ourselves in Clinton Hill and visited Brooklyn Tap House and Emerson’s, two solid spots. Reviews forthcoming.
Happy Flag Day!
Here are a few spots to hit for a Flag Day NYC bar crawl:
Fraunces Tavern, 54 Pearl Street in Manhattan’s Financial District. George Washington hung out here.
Loopy Doopy, rooftop bar atop Conrad Hotel in Battery Park City. Great view of Statue of Liberty and the relatively late sunset.
Pete’s Tavern, 18th Street & Irving Place in Manhattan’s Gramercy section. Among the oldest bars in Manhattan
New NYC bars on our radar
Here are some new spots we’re looking forward to include on a future NYC bar crawl: Watermark Bar (Pier 15 near South Street Seaport in Manhattan), Eastwood (221 East Broadway in Lower East Side) and Upright Brewhouse (547 Hudson Street in the West Village). This last spot may be more of a cafe, but we gather that it serves a solid craftbeer selection, so we’ll have to visit it and then make the bar vs. cafe determination. Always a good debate!
Some good news for two South Street Seaport bars
An article we saw in dnainfo.com shows that two of the shuttered Seaport bars will be opening temporarily in pop-up form before re-opening in their original locations later in the summer: http://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20130516/south-street-seaport/storm-shuttered-seaport-bars-opening-wine-beer-pop-up-shop-on-pier-17
And we also learned recently that the Paris Cafe will be re-opening sometime in August!
Two beer breweries coming to Staten Island soon?
Here’s an interesting article we came across recently in Gothamist.com regarding two breweries potentially opening in Staten Island. Here’s hoping that happens! http://gothamist.com/2013/05/18/staten_island_might_get_two_breweri.php
