    The fan-favorite cheeseburger at this South Slope saloon comes with a mountainous side of hand-cut fries and a Scotch kicker. It’s more than a few notches above your average fast-food order. (RC) Read more

    Cool spot. Pool table, dart board, shuffleboard, and some board games in addition to six TVs, plus some outdoor space. Get there early for football to guarantee a good seat.

    Do the burger, the burger, then the burger. Diversify after. Chili is great, so are the fries. Shuffleboard and board games are available but the place gets crazy at night so at your own peril...

    1 of 2 best burgers in Brooklyn, and totally awesome cobb salad. Share both for the perfect balance in a really homey bar for great sports watching..

    Triple bacon cheeseburger is $15 but on Tuesday it’s half off. Hold the fries, too carby, but they’re tasty. Good whiskey selection too, they comped one because they were missing the first two.

    Settle in at the 33-foot bar or bring your brew to a spacious booth. Attractions like pool, darts and shuffleboard, favored by the postcollegiate crowd. Read more

    Single burger with everything is one of the most delicious burgers I've ever had in the city. Good food, beer, and selection of games! What more can you ask for?!

    Perfectly lively, but not too crowded. Good bar food and games (e.g. Jenga, connect four, sorry, skeeball etc)

    Double Cheeseburger, $12 The house style is a relentlessly drippy double fashioned from two well-browned three-ounce patties fully accessorized with lettuce, tomato, American cheese, pickle, onion.

    Laid back and open bar with beer, board games, shuffle board, pool and delicious Hamburgers, Irish Nachos and deep fried Mac & Cheese.

    If you get a burger, sub the fries with a side salad for $1. It's a no bullshit salad and you'll negate the 7 beers you plan on downing.

    Fun, chill bar in south slope. Good vibe. The booth tables are great for a group of 3 - 7 friends. The fries are quite good.

    Extremely loud but still the best bar burger in town. Take it the way it comes: two square patties, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion, mustard, mayo, and no ketchup.

    A local favorite, with board games and backyard garden. Great beer selection, pair it with some spicy wings.

    Need a table - standing room is narrow and in the way of everyone else. Food is decent bar food and they play a wide variety of sports which can make it a nice alternative to the usual sports bar.

    Definitely mediocre as a sports bar, but definitely above average as a place to get a beer and a burger. (The burger is what Wendy’s wishes it were.)

    The pool on Friday nights is tournament style. Don't come here if you want to play billiards with your friends. You have to play the winner.

    Shuffleboard, lots of flat screens for games, comfy booths, a decent draft selection and a pretty tasty burger.

    Forget the fact that they have a huge beer selection. Forget the fact that their burger is one of NYC's best (the food in general rocks). The staff kicks ass. 'Nuff said.

    The cheeseburger is serious stuff. Easily the best I've had in Brooklyn. Get the of roasted garlic aioli dipping sauce for your fries.

    A photo of where the infamous dram shop burger was, before it was quickly devoured. This burger is HARD to photograph, good luck.

    Don't skip the burger here--it's truly amazing. Note though: the default is double patties, so ask for a single if you want to keep your girlish figure.

    If you're looking for an expensive big mac, get the burger. They, also, give you a ton of fries.

    this place has a little something 4 everyone (pool, games, etc., a gabillion tv's playing all types of sports, sweet 80's and 90's tunes.) beer is cheap, burgers are great. not your typical sports bar
