We brought our own food for a private party. The bartender was great, music great, great company!!!
The most wonderful bar tenders (owners (MIKE N KENNY) bands on weekends (Nice crowds) (Also it has become my family place to hang) very very clean place and the atmosphere is the best around. Stop by and see for yourself (Football games on multiple T.V.'S SETS AND ALSO A PARTY ROOM IN THE BACK WITH OUTSIDE TABLE'S TO HANG WITH OCCASIONAL BARBEQUES ON WEEKENDS.
Great bar and live music venue! Bands on the weekends, karaoke on Wednesday and Saturday. Terrific staff and owner.
I rented their back room and the patio for an engagement party. The place was great . Mike is super helpful. They provide tables and chair. Although you can't bring your own liquor, guest can get drinks at the bar. Do recommend
Fun as hell! Digital jukebox, spacious party room and a backyard. Mike & Chris hold the bar down like professionals. I would recommend this bar to anyone looking for a casual, raucous night out
Love everthing about it ! The Memorial bbq was a big success! Mike the owner is a great guy. Nice neighborhood feel and weekend bands are great!
i am 100 percent blown away by the exceptional hospitality this location has to offer. The owner Mike Gallagher was an all around stand up guy. he was very helpful to my needs and very nice and welcoming to me and my family and my party guests. we had our sons 2nd birthday party here and it was the greatest experience in hospitality we have ever received. our guests couldnt stop raving about the place. it was all around awsome no complaints at all. we will definitely be back again. Everybody should go check it out. hope you love it as much as i did!! thanks Mike Gallagher @the lief bar!!!!
Family run dive bar/watering hole with a nice backyard and fun bartender. Crowd runs a bit on the older side but this place has been here forever and has loyal customers who have grown to be family friends.
Michael is such a amazing owner had my gender reveal there definitely recommend his place and the atmosphere was amazing!
They have events, live music, karaoke, bingo, and painting. Just a little bit of everything. Bar keepers are great 👍🏼.

Had an event in the back room, space was nice. A little on the older side but served its function. The bar itself is a very cute local bar. Staff is super friendly.
Best rock ‘n’ roll, cover bands and most talent in the entire city every weekend, revolving list of bands.
Nice crowd. Conveniently located on 67th and Senator Street in Bay Ridge Brooklyn. Not a large place, but not a small place either. Attentive and friendly bartenders. Went as an invited guest. Will not hesitate to return on my own. The B-63 will drop you nearby.
It was St Patrick's day and I had a blast. Drinks were great and reasonably priced enjoyed the outside patio.The band was great too will most likely go back again
Friendly & inviting Karaoke, bingo + The Owner was sweet & they asked me if my drink was strong enough for like liking Mixologist Jen never disappoints They also have a room for parties/events in case you're looking for a venue

It's a local bar where everyone goes and you are sure to run into someone you know. It doesn't serve food but if your having a party there you can bring your own food in.
