AFAR MediaAugust 12, 2014The rotating daily punches can be ordered for a reasonable $5, served in adorable-yet-twee punch glasses, or you can go whole hog and order a $43 bowl from the standing menu, which serves ten. Read more
AllisonJanuary 6, 2015For a fancy an inexpensive hot toddy you can't go wrong with their hot cider punch. Choice of Bourbon or Rum! $6!- AFAR MediaMay 4, 2015Besides the punch, what's The Drink's major draw? The spacious white-washed back patio, a welcome reprieve for those thirsting for some quality time set outdoors. Read more
Village VoiceNovember 21, 2013Get the one-of-a-kind Trade Winds punch. A mixture of pumpkin, chair tea and dried chili pepper syrup that comes head to head with scotch and solera sherry for a rich and smoky buzz.
Party EarthJune 13, 2012While $43 sounds pricey, the punch by the bowl is unbelievable, and a whole bowl goes a long way even in a large group. With three people or fewer, though, you might want to stick to the drafts. Read more
Anna OhareJuly 2, 2014Really nice, chill smoking area. Come here on a summer evening with friends and relax listening to the live music inside
anything in a punch bowl is great here. Interior is very pirate-shipy. Nice Sized patio.
MarthaApril 8, 2015$10 cocktail list and 2-for-1 until 7pm. bartenders are very friendly. cool, chill vibe.
Vuk MilanovicOctober 21, 2015Cool spot with friendly staff and very nice craft beer selection on tap! Prices are ok, atmosphere is ok.
Erin FinneganMarch 2, 2013Great punch! Great pickles! Great music. Website does not accurately portray interior dive-ness, however.
David DiGregorioDecember 10, 2014There is a good mulled drink here in the autumn. Also I predicted porthole windows and I got it.
Check out the Hot Club of Bushwick's gypsy jazz set Sundays, 6-8. And make sure to tip your bartender. Pete makes a mean shrimp roll!- John MichaelApril 12, 2015The punch bowls are delicious and sort of like "HOW BROOKLYN DOES BOTTLE SERVICE"
delicious drinks. this place feels like a ski lodge. they do punch really well too.
MegFebruary 1, 2011$5 Wassail are a failsafe, definitely try the smoked green tea and jameson toddy if it's on the menu. Toss the lemon. Doesn't need it. YUM!
The punches are really tasty and set this place apart. It gets way too crowded on weekend nights though.
Brian RaffertyAugust 29, 2014Sea Shandy punch makes the ladies happy. Loose Cannon IPA does the trick for me.
Pueblo Viejo TequilaDecember 21, 2016Christmas colors are reflected in the cocktails mixed with Pueblo Viejo Blanco at The Drink.
Alix McAlpineJanuary 22, 2012Just when I thought The Drink couldn't get any better, they added Lobster Rolls to their food offerings. I'm in love!
Sarah KelleherDecember 29, 2013Dangerously amazing punch drinks, both hot & cold. Don't say I didn't warn you...
Have a party here and get a punch bowl. Great smoked fish for Sunday brunch too.
Christine LiangDecember 4, 2011Order an old fashion here and look like an all star. Order any of the punch bowls, still look like a rockstar.
Nat HarwardDecember 21, 2013Hot Wassail: "Start with a cup of steamy, spicy apple cider-based wassail at this jaunty nautical-themed bar." Read more
The Drink Owners Will & Adam contemplating future hum punches & hum bottles repurposed into hummingbird feeders for their patio. Good times.
Excellent cocktails and knowledgeable barmen ! Brooklyn s finest
Carmen GoosemanJuly 26, 2014Come mondays. Mexican night nachos are the shit. And the bartender is hot.
Mike O'DeaMarch 14, 2011order a punchbowl full of your favorite drank and some glasses. make sure you share!- 'Agoras Kitten' Piet-Agoras hobby-brewed Belgian Ale, ginger juice, hum, oj zest. Like driving naked in a convertible wearing mink underwear
- Pueblo Viejo TequilaDecember 8, 2015If you are in The Drink, try a Margarita with Pueblo Viejo Blanco.
Wassail with bourbon or rum for the holidays! Super cozy.
Ask them about their bitters collection. It's out of control.
Hear your favorite songs mangled by their "hi-fi" stereo system. Black Sabbath never sounded so tinny.
