Time Out New YorkJune 11, 2013Seating is plentiful, the drink list features a fair share of low-alcohol brews, and traditional Czech food is available to soak up some of that booze. What is there not to love about this bierhaus? Read more

Beril EsenAugust 12, 2017Perfect outdoor spot to come to with a group of friends in the summer especially if you appreciate $14 Happy hour pitchers & $4 drafts! Did I mention great Czech food that goes with your drinks?
New York HabitatApril 23, 2014This is the ideal spot to hang out with friends, especially during the warmer weather. It has a terrace where you can enjoy a great selection of beer and traditional American food!
Foad TorshiziSeptember 28, 2015This is a great place to have a friendly gathering. With Czech specialties in food and a great variety of beers you'll need nothing more. The garden is divided to smoking and non-smoking areas.
Indulgent EatsMay 24, 2016The OG beer garden that's always worth a trip to Astoria. Grab one of their plentiful outdoor tables and kick back with beers and great Czech food (get the fried cheese!) for the perfect summer day.
Julie SosciaAugust 2, 2018One of the if not the best beer garden in the NYC area. Sit outside if available seats and best during a soccer match with outdoor tvs.- Julie SosciaJanuary 13, 2019One, if the if not the best bier garden in the NYC area. Grab a seat outside to watch the soccer games on the outdoor TVs. The garden is open all year and has heat lamps!
Simon StelzlJune 25, 2018Best beer garden in the city. It’s worth all the way up to Queens. Lots of german beer and big screens for watching sports.
Gabriel ChungApril 14, 2016Beer Gardens are great, especially this one in Astoria. NYC's oldest beer garden. It is unpretentious and has a very relaxing atmosphere. Nice beer menu and good food.
Jeremy BOctober 19, 2014The Czech food is amazing. Succulent roast pork, goulash, potato pancakes and dumplings. Also, of course, a solid selection of European and American beers with great outdoor seating.
My favorite drinking spot in Queens in the summer. Authentic music. Authentic beer and food. Amazing atmosphere. So much fun.
Wen Seng LieOctober 18, 2015Love their beers but hate the dust. Outdoor setting gets very hot in the summer. Get you sunblock. Food and drinks are standard. It's a gem in the neighborhood, the place to get drunk during lunch
Delightful way to spend a summer afternoon. Perfect for convivial daytime imbibing with friends. Watch your step when navigating the sprawling garden: small children often run underfoot.- Great beers (like Pilsner Urquell), Czech food, and live music. Fun place for groups b/c it's very casual and there's a ton of space and friendly people.
- Julie SosciaJuly 17, 2018One of the if not the best beer garden in the NYC area. Sit outside if available seats and best during a soccer match with outdoor tvs.
Serious EatsMarch 8, 2013NYC’s oldest beer garden, with some of the freshest Pilsner Urquell we’ve found in the city.
The New YorkerJune 2, 2014“Some of the superior beers now on tap are the citrusy Franziskaner Weissbier and the White Aphro, which has strong lavender notes, as servers warn men who order it.” Read more- Veronica VMay 4, 2013Really nice place, good czech beer, czech cuisine, and actually staff is Czech, Slovak, or American. Thumbs up! Loved it!
Marcie KowalskiApril 7, 2013Must have ID. Go through the door in the bar to enter not the fancy double doors on the outside of the garden walls. Brand new bathrooms which its a saving grace with all the well priced beer!
Alex StillJune 14, 2021Most legit Beer Garden in all of NYC. Brats, pretzels, beers, big picnic tables. What more do you need?
Claire J SongJune 3, 2015up to 160. Catering classics like pigs in a blankets, is served buffet style, and of course, there’s lots and lots of beer. Food and drink packages start at $65 a person.
Brew YorkAugust 15, 2011There are many imitators, but this is the one true, traditional beer garden in New York. Its beer selection isn't huge, and mainly skews to imports, naturally, but the atmosphere is one of a kind.
Established 1910. Last original remaining Beer Garden in NYC. Managed by fraternal organization dedicated to education and preserving local Czech and Slovak communities and host to their events.
Humberto MartinezJuly 11, 2011Amazingly huge (and famous) back patio area that gets seriously packed. Get there early to settle down with a table before they're all taken.
Alex MizrahiJune 17, 2013"Attached to this little bar--manned by a bartender so closemouthed that some think he's kidding--is a high stone wall surrounding half an acre of gravel punctuated by rows of century-old trees..." Read more
I always spend great after offices here when the garden is open. Nice people and laid back environment. Queens at its best!
Owen HerterichAugust 28, 2016Best beer garden in the city. More authentic than most, and tons of space in the back garden.
Rosie MartinezJuly 20, 2013Great place for day time drinking, big space lots of tables. Grab some friends and bring a card game and enjoy hours of fun- The best beer garden in New York. Fantastic beer selection, good food and a rustic, spacious outdoor seating area.
Mario RocaApril 3, 2011Well if your looking to have a traditional breakfast (i.e. eggs,bacon, pancakes) come here. To boot the drinks are free refill. Enjoy and eat get drunk early. Brunch is the BEST!!!!
Great bar with good food! A little on there pricey side. They always have sports on.- All day everyday from Sept 28th to Oct 6th:"Oktoberfest in the Garden" with pig roasts, raffles, bands including the Polka Brothers (duh) on the 6th, and plenty of Oktoberfest-style brews.
Ben GaspariniSeptember 9, 2016Lots of space for activities at this spot. I'm a big fan of Slovak and Czech stuff so color me happy.- Gabriel HayesAugust 22, 2015Awesome beer garden right in story. Good open space and delicious Czech beer.
- Poppi KoulisJune 11, 2017Huge open space, one of the few places that you can enjoy a cigg and a beer in peace.
This is a great place but DO NOT bring in outside food. They're insane. Made my friend finish a few last gulps of her soda in her purse. Let me slide tonight with some water in my bottle. Lighten up!!
Gorazd LazorikJuly 21, 2013wow, truly amazing beer and great atmosphere... So far my favorite nightlife spot in whole New York!
Jeff WooAugust 21, 2011The last original remaining beer garden in all of NYC where there were once 800! Great for happy hour after work - get there early at 6pm to grab a bench before sunset!
Amy CummingsApril 25, 2017Awesome place to hang out on a nice day. Didn't even feel like I was in the city!
MasterCardMay 31, 2012Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden is the last remaining original beer garden in New York. Escape the city without leaving the city.- Stefano CalzolariOctober 3, 2014Cool spot to have few beers and stay outside. Great atmosphere during sports events.
Ignore all the noise you hear in these tips. Bottom line: best beer garden in Astoria. Good beer and good crowd. It gets crowded and loud so get your kids out by 6-ish. Still a great time.
StageBuddyJune 28, 2013When available try their pork, sauerkraut and dumplings! It serves two and every bite feels heavenly. Read more- Johnny AppleseedAugust 11, 2014Came her for the World Cup soccer matches. Fun vibe, friendly people. Lots of beer and food.
Russell SinclairApril 12, 2014Massive beer garden far from the craziness of downtown. Get there early on a sunny day.
The Corcoran GroupAugust 16, 2010The oldest beer garden in New York City! Go for the live music, pitchers of cold Czech beer and fresh grilled Klobasa.
