You can’t beat a dive bar that makes great cocktails. Good music, friendly staff, huge outdoor patio. Marco’s is a gem.

Nothing is particularly notable except for a big backyard, which is great in nicer weather. Solid addition to my dive bar rotation in the area.

Marcos is an awesome bar. I went to hang out with friends, and there was a kool pop up event with a dj and food in their amazing backyard. It was also great seeing Wilson, who is an amazing bartender. Love it. ❤️

J
Jim Cannon

This is the closest bar to my house, and I'm glad it is. I like to stop here after getting off work late night, or going in the afternoon to read on the weekends. Cheap drinks, friendly bartenders, big backyard, and good DJs late night. A staple of the neighborhood.

L
Lindsay Assenmacher

I love their rotating frozen specials and always a trusty place for a beer + shot combo. They have amazing vendors / food pop ups in the backyard. My go-to neighborhood spot

Marcos is one of my favorite bars in town! I love the atmosphere & the vibes! Best Jukebox box ever!! I’m obsessed with their Espresso Martini!! 🍸

Exactly what you want out of a dive. Cheap beer shot combos, good drinks and a great backyard that you don’t find often in this part of BK. Plus the events they do are hella fun.

This joint is a gem 💎. The backyard is really huge, good for most of the year. Their recent events/DJs have been awesome. Great find.

Daniel Warncke

Marco’s is such a cool bar with amazing bartenders. Wilson always shows us a good time and is an awesome bartender and manager. Literally every bartender that works here is amazing and gives the best customer service. The deals are great and the bar is inclusive, inviting, and feels like home.

Frank Lupazzo

Walked in having a bad day ended up having a good drink. A little bit of a metal bar but has an old feel to it

A
Alex Trimpe

First and foremost, it's cash only. They have cheap drinks, good happy hours. Nice friendly staff. You would think it is a dive bar, but it's more like a hip 20s-people type of bar. Outdoor patio in the warmer days. Not a ton of seating indoors but usually can get a table for 2 even on weekends with ease. Love the atmosphere... dimly lit string lights in the evening add an almost romantic vibe to it.

K
Kirsten Flaherty

Love this neighborhood bar- delicious cocktails, rad music and friendly bartenders make this place the perfect destination to hang with friends or chill for a nightcap. Will be back!

Great local bar for a chill hang. Bartenders are sweet and will socialize or let you cozy up to the bar with a book.

Very cool and inviting local spot owned by a friend of mine. Have never had a bad drink or a single bad vice from this place. The staff are on another level and really take care of you. Would highly recommend!

Fernando Orozco

The best place around! I stayed for vacations close by and the only place that I liked and felt safe was this little bar! They have a nice patio sitting in the back and everyone there is also nice! The street is kind of scary but this bar made the difference in my stay in Brooklyn!

L
Lee Coppage

This place is the bomb dot com. Great happy hour until 9 PM. Amazing backyard! This place used to be a hole in the wall diner (Terry's) and is much better suited to be a local bar. Would recommend to anyone!

I specifically came tonight because I know that Xavier works on Tuesdays only to find out that he had been let go because of a review that does NOT sound like anything that I have EVER witnessed! I come to this place a lot and I have never seen him anything other than lovely, professional, attentive and a great bartender and friend to the regulars. If the owners are reading the reviews: if you listen to one out of towner instead of the people who come here multiple times a week, this place is going to lose its character…and its customers.

Matt Melemseter
Matt Melemseter

So many of my favorite nights have been spent on Mondays and Tuesdays with Xavier and on the weekends with Wilson. They always make it a welcoming and wonderful time. They’re the reason we always come back! Best bartenders, great patio when it’s warm out, good specials and a terrific spot.

I live close by, and this bar has been a sacred third space for me for 5 years through some really hard times. What I can say is that each bartender on staff right now has their own vibe, music, and energy - but this place is community. I came in today to see Xavier, a bartender who has become a weekly staple in my work from home life. He’s the first to engage new customers, makes everyone laugh, and always makes you feel like you’re family. I heard he had been let go due to one bad review, but which I read, and quite frankly it sounds like it was very late when that review was written and we all know at that things can get confused in the early hours - not to doubt here experience but owners, if you’re watching, several regulars here tonight are heartbroken. I’m so sad, when Xavier started here this place became warmer, more inclusive, and a must do even if it was just me passing through to say hi. I think this was a mistake, and I’m here more days a week than I’d like to admit 👀 I don’t know what that out of town person’s experience was like and I’m not trying to judge her, but I know Xavier and he would never make someone feel less than or unwelcome. Bartending is hard work, and let’s be real I come here for community. Xavier, John, Wilson, Hogan, Steph, Jill, Cali, and the caring security staff make this place what it is. Maybe I’ll try Hart bar.

Really the platonic form of what a good bar should be. Cheap, check. Unpretentious, check. You can take your drink and sit outside and live life freely as intended by the Declaration of Independence, check. Bartenders are cool, check. Nothing wrong with this place. I couldn't improve anything if I tried.

Chill vibes and with a huge back yard. The special cocktails are very good especially the coquito. I like the drag shows and special events they’ve been throwing. Well priced too. Neighborhood staple

Great neighborhood place! The vibes are always good & they rotate dj’s through the week to mix things up. You can never go wrong with a trusty beer shot combo am I right?!

Chill cozy bar with competent bartenders... it's cash only though, and they'll throw you shade if you ask them to break large bills.

Nice bar with the best prices in the area. Large outdoor area, good music. The only thing keeping it from getting 5 stars is that it's cash only.

Came thru on a Monday night and exposed to a chill spot. Good mix of music with a list of different cocktail drinks and varieties of wine. Indoor space and a backyard for different events. Find them on IG for a host of evwnts. I'll be back Update- March 2022 Great vibes with Brooklyn. Always the spot

Pretty cool spot on Broadway. Beer selection is fine. Not quite a dive bar, but not really nice enough to be anything else. We came on a Friday night, and it was surprisingly empty. Started to fill in later as the night went on, but we still expected it to be more crowded.

Loud dive, cash only, cheap-ish drinks. Very harsh sound system, extremely loud, hard to hear yourself think.

Marcos is a cool, 70's style bar with a big back yard. Great spot to explore in summer, but a little quiet during the rest of the year.

D
Destinei Simpson

Cool looking dive bar, great atmosphere. I only had one drink. The margarita was so bad. It wasn't good at all. I tried to add simple syrup but it didn't help one bit. The website also said they had pretzels but it wasn't a available that night. Otherwise pretty good bar.

Christan Seidle

Super bummed to come in and find out (by the regulars nonetheless) that my all time favorite bartender and vibe keeper, Xavier was let go. Marcos has been my go to spot for years and I've made a lot of great friends and shared many memories there. It's a shame that Marcos was willing to let someone go based on a drunk review. This place most won't certainly be the same.

L
Larry Hoerner

Went in only for a late night drink at the bar. Bartender was nice enough. Ordered a margarita at $14. I don't know what he used that cost so much money, but my highball glass was about half full with a giant ice cube in it. Think it worked out to about $5 a sip! Will order a beer next time.

The male bartender tonight was extremely rude and racist. Never coming back again!

EDIT: The noise is just out of control from the back patio. It routinely wakes me up, from halfway down the block and many stories up. People are SCREAMING in the back area until 4am and beyond, and I can hear every word of conversations. I reached out to Marco's on IG to address the issue, and they blocked me with no response. This is already an incredibly noisy area between the train, motorcycles, fireworks, trucks, etc. Marco's is a terrible neighbor :( Totally would understand normal conversations until midnight, but this is every single night until 4am. The 311 request lookup shows that that complaints are ongoing for years. The bar is cute and cozy inside, with reasonably priced drinks. Bartenders are nice and feels like a little secret neighborhood spot. That said, there are people behind the bar SCREAMING until 4 am every single night. Even on these nights that are cold! I have tried reporting 311, DMing on Instagram, and nothing. I guess the appeal is having a backyard, but Marco’s, please at least make a midnight backyard closure! It’s not fair to the dozens of neighbors who can hear every word of the drunk conversations. I wish I were at the bar instead of having to stressing will I get enough sleep for work, but alas. Please be more respectful of your neighbors!

Gillian Jones

this bar is definitely not a safe place for women. i came here for my friends birthday party and we all had to leave almost immediately because customers wouldnt stop harassing the girls. I didn’t feel safe, was an unfortunate and uncomfortable experience

L
L. Joseph B.

No food. Horrible drinks, the bartender did not know how to make a simple Moscow Mule and they all appeared dizzy and lethargic. The open area is the back is the only redeeming quality of this dump.

J
Jordan Stein

The first drink I had had a long blond hair in it. I had a few drinks after and the bartender decided to listen in on our conversation. The bartender decided to follow my friend to the bathroom to attempt to comfort her after a political conversation. When the bartender decided to clock out, she came up to us, hugged my friend, and said a disparaging comment to me. None of which was needed. Completely unacceptable and inappropriate. Will never come back.

G
Gary Ealey

I always come here and I always TIP the bartenders, but Today Dominque the bartender, had the nerve to say I brought over $50 in drinks alone, I didn’t tip and that’s crazy. As a bartender, that’s horrible customer service. Her drinks are good but she definitely not getting a tip for her comment bad customer service

Traveled here from Portland or and was super excited for me and my friends to have a lovely night of going out and we stumbled upon Marco's the vibe was amazing and so was the music but the bartender was most deff...drunk! He was very rude , refused to acknowledge me even though I was standing right there and no one else was at the bar(whatever I'm patient and in the industry) but like when he's just sitting on his phone rolling his eyes it's a little odd! I asked him for a wine and he mocked my accent and when I asked him if he was okay he screamed (why is everyone messing with me!) very confused whatever ... and then I came up there a second time and he was screaming at someone else for asking for a drink! Final straw he did last call and then when I went up to the bar he said "I'm not serving anymore" uhh isn't that last call? If I wasn't already on anti depressants I would be on them after this experience with this drunk of a bartender! Great music great vibe but staff that aren't only drunk but also mean!
