Great neighborhood bar with outdoor seating and delicious food and drinks. The monthly reading series is worth checking out, though the quality of the writers is a toss-up.

This is my favorite place to go out with friends in Crown Heights. Has 2 different bars and a large outdoor patio to cater to everyone's needs. Also has games, a photo booth, music, and food.

Come here on a warm, summer day and grab a beer. They have happy hour from 11-4 on Sunday's! 5 drafts! The fries also look delicious.

Offering a laid-back atmosphere, arcade games and a large outdoor patio, Franklin Park has been a popular hangout. The two bars - one indoor and one outdoor - are stocked with delicious local beers.

Delicious burgers and beers in a surprisingly chill backyard, feels like a beer garden, with communal tables and a good mix of people

Great food but heads up they are now including gratuity in the original bill & then an additional line for tip when you sign. At least they did when I ate there with 4 people - usual practice is 6??

Late at night, on the weekends, this place turns into a de facto nightclub, with DJs and dancing. I prefer daytime, when the patio is super low key, and perfect for day drinking.

Great patio, late eats from Dutch Boy, two nice bars, skeeball, cheap Pork Slap. Event line-up ranging from more standard (trivia nights and wild dance parties) to unusual (book readings). Best bar in

A burger diner leads to Skeeball, mini basketball, photo booth, leads to roomy booths and a dark room. It's like the Narnia closet.

Quite frankly, it's my new favorite spot. Enjoy a eclectic mix of people, drink a great selection of beer and if you want, check out Dutch Boy Burger next door for their lamb burgers. Delicious!

Perfect for an afternoon with friends. Service can be slow but that's ok, it's a chill place with games, tvs, and tables in the sun. What's not to love?
Andrew TrippApril 15, 2015
Don't give up your seat here, it will get swiped before you can blink! But good draft list and perfect place to hang in nice weather.
Steve ElliottMarch 27, 2014
This is the only place on the block that gets rowdy real late on weekends. When I'm in my hood and I want that vibe, I know where to go.
DevontaJuly 7, 2013
In the middle of the hood but its an amazing chill beer garden. Recommend everyone to visit. Drinks, Food and Games.
Bria LangerJuly 14, 2017
Love the outdoor seating! Eat there for lunch, pop in for a slammin' happy hour, or come late night and dance.
Melissa YuMay 6, 2016
Various crowds that all fit in place here. Generous seating outdoors and in. Dutch Boy Burger is behind it and you can BYOF 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Luc DoanJuly 2, 2016
Gorgeous outdoor patio with an amazing lit up tree. I love the variation in places to hang out within the venue
MariJuly 6, 2016
Awesome place to have a laid back drink outside. Beware, if they're busy, it may be awhile before you get your foods.

The place in Franklin to kick it with friends in good weather. The beer selection is the best around. I think they upgraded their menu recently because the food is much tastier.
Lily GompertsAugust 24, 2016
Super fun bar with a bunch of different areas. Really fun dancefloor inside! Really nice patio outside!
Connie ChiuAugust 23, 2014
Great outdoor beer garden.
StayNYC RentalsAugust 27, 2018
Though this Crown Heights bar has ample indoor space, the outdoor picnic benches and beer garden are the best reason to hang out here.
Anna OhareJuly 22, 2014
Yummy burgers! Service is a little slow as they're pretty busy at night. Go hungry!
Steve RoseMay 11, 2018
Good happy hour deals (just make sure to ask which beers are included) and lots of outdoor seating!
Marie La RueApril 28, 2019
Nice convivial outdoor drinking spot. Good beer & cocktail selection.
Morgan ThomasFebruary 3, 2015
Fun place, laid back, pretty good music. The space is special. Great courtyard, two different bars. Have fun!
Rose Arlene MilgromJuly 22, 2015
Great outdoor spot with picnic tables in the back. Enter on St. Johns Pl. Connected to the Dutch Boy kitchen, too!
Damian BayonaJuly 6, 2015
Great place to catch a game or just hang out. Be forewarned with the food tho, that $11 burger doesn't come with fries 😧
Tessa NicholsJanuary 10, 2014
Delicious burgers. Fun atmosphere. Beer garden. Ski ball and basketball shoot out! And a photo booth..Need I say more?

Hit up the reading series here. Lots of great writers come through. I'm always impressed.

For those in the Crown Heights / Prospect Heights, this is one of the go to places for cheap booze, friendly folks, and night time fun. Check out their happy hour specials, game room, and DJs
Sam GilApril 30, 2017
Great outdoor spot in summer. Lots of TVs for sport. I don't go for the food but love the curly fries.
John BalashFebruary 2, 2018
Cool location and spaces with indoor and outdoor areas. Sort of expensive drinks though, especially for Brooklyn.
Adam MayMarch 19, 2016
Lots of space and rooms with different atmospheres, great place to watch a game, to hang out, or play arcade games.
Gabriel HayesOctober 18, 2015
The 2nd bar in back is less crowded and better for getting drinks.
Jake SmithAugust 7, 2014
Cherry flavored stuff (cider, gin fizz) is where it's at on a hot summer night.
Deep GujralJuly 27, 2014
Grab the boozy milkshake with Bourbon. They make them super strong. Perfect summer drink!!
Barry NelsonAugust 19, 2018
Deserves its reputation. Fun, good food, kid friendly during the day.

The hangover burger was amazing and the seating indoor and outdoor is awesome.

Easily my fav bar in the area. Nice indoor and outdoor space although lost one indoor area to burger place so not sure what'll happen this winter. Great diverse crowd.

Good open setting, decent drink selection- fun in warm weather; spacious

Happy hour is half priced beer til 4 pm! Also, hands down best photo booth in BK. (Two sheets of four pics for three bucks? Like, every time.)
