Jessica JonesJuly 13, 2017I love this place. Offers something a *little* different than other bars in the area- cool little seating area and delicious food.Upvoted Sep 13
Malcolm RingApril 22, 2015You can rely on this place to have people on an off-night when other places may be empty. Cheap beer and a solid cocktail happy hour. Pool table in back, and chair-swing in front you should sit in.
Pre and post-pandemic, they continue to serve one of the best chicken sandwiches in the city. Maybe it's marinated in soy sauce and ginger? So juicy and full of unami.
I used to go here a lot, I don't so much anymore but it's still a good place for drunken hangs.They pour strong drinks...order one of their boozy slushies! I always have a fun time at The Johnson's.
Mike NickersonApril 12, 2017Some of the cheapest drinks in NYC! Can't beat $2 beers. Love the chill vibe. Be sure to drink while swinging or lounging on the bed!
Larissa MatteiDecember 29, 2019Love the vibe. It makes me feel in a old movie! Great songs, also. Cheap beer!
- DoubleDeuceSeptember 7, 2023Divey in back like your 1980's Midwestern uncle's basement where he hungout with his union buddies talking shop but brighter up front where the women gossip and the food is made.
Long long happy hour (YAY) $2 lions heads, $5 cocktails until 9. Definitely nicer than Welcome to the Johnsons in LES. More of a retro vibe. Nice chairs to sit in at the enclosed outdoor space.
A BCDAugust 5, 2015Sister bar in Bushwick to the Welcome to the Johnson's bar in the Lower East Side. Way less gritty, but nice!- Cheap drinks with a great crowd. Way better then the sister bar in the LES. the music and bar staff is above par.
This place gets hated on real hard but there are adult swings, happy hour goes til 9, and you'll feel like you're on the set of any 1960's tv show.
OctaneAugust 7, 2014This place is tiny like my great grandparent's living room and it gets really packed in here. You may run into Lady Gaga on occasion, though.- David LópezJune 19, 2015Pretty chill place. Perfect for a (2$! ) beer. They have sofas and a pool table. Nice.
JohannaOctober 17, 2016The Painkillers are good, and $4. Have one... if you don't mind losing the rest of the day (and night).
Noëlle DevlinJanuary 11, 2014It reminds me of a friends parents fancy basement/garage bar. They had me at the hanging wicker chairs!
AnnaOctober 8, 2015Neighborhood staple that is great to meet up and hang out with friends new and old
Michæl StarkeyApril 6, 2014Great place to get a couple shots and a few beers and then drive home… to heaven.
Cheap drinks and a weird "my parents upgraded their patio" vibe in the entrance.
Kristin PDecember 17, 2020Good to-go frozens and the food from strange flavor is anything but strange.
