Great atmosphere and drinks. They are Liverpool fans, but I like them anyway and will be back. Love the pinball and board games.
Such good atmosphere and people, had an amazing time and will be back again soon
Best bar on 5th. Friendly people, pinball machines, and full of life. One of the best backyards in Brooklyn 💚💜 and super clean loos as well👍
Lovely little bar, very friendly staff and customers too. Great drinks, and even better place to watch the football (soccer)
The Irish pub vibe I've been missing - friendly, down to earth, great spot to watch a match. Staff was fantastic.
Great service. Great staff. Made me feel at home! Great place to watch LFC games. Vinny knows how to run a pub
Good British beer and excellent chicken pie. Can't beat the outside terrace, and the service is tip top. No darts though!
Great bar. Friendly bartender. Visiting from Philly on Sunday, bartender turned on 76ers playoff game for us. Definitely going back
A true Pub. Professional staff. Friendly clientele. Great music. Affordable drinks and always open late!
Best liverpool bar in Brooklyn. On the small side but plenty of screens and a nice little back garden for halftime smokes
‘The’ Liverpool bar in Brooklyn. Come for a match, say hi to the regulars. Vinny will take care of you. Up the Reds.
top notch liverpool pub
Nice pub. Just renovated the garden with extra tables. Always playing footy on the tele.
Great time for Liverpool games. Staff is incredibly friendly, as are patrons
Great pub run by friendly people. Go for soccer or other sports on the TV, pinball and the jukebox.
Great liverpudlian bar. Good beer selection and super friendly staff
One of the best bars in the Slope. Great service, lovely selection
Met this nice couple @ Anfield today for the Arsenal match, told me to that they frequent your bar on match days, told me to give you a visit next time I’m in NY, so here’s to hopefully seeing you some time, up the reds⚽️👍👍
We went to watch the United PSG game, being a Liverpool fan I was in for a great surprise that this was a Liverpool pub. Great beer and great football watching venue.
Friendly atmosphere, cheap drinks, and a quiet patio out back. Perfect for one drink or hang for a few!

Brought some friends here for a birthday celebration, and the bartender was so accommodating, kind, and fun. Spacious back patio -- great spot in the neighborhood, and we'll be back!
Perfect sports bar. Super nice staff, very neighborhoody and cozy. Don't sleep on this place.
Great local bar Watched 2 Liverpool Games there Perfect
I was on vacation from Liverpool (UK). I came here to watch my team Liverpool FC play Crystal Palace on Saturday 05 October. I was staying in Harlem and it was an 07:30 kick off but it was worth the effort to visit this great bar. Vincent, the owner made me feel very welcome. I had a good chat with him after the match and could have easily stayed for another pint but it was still before ten in the morning. Thank you, Vincent.
I love this place. I don’t go here nearly enough to warrant being treated like a regular, but every time we go to the Monro we’re welcomed like we spend every evening here. The bar staff are some of the friendliest and best around, the draft selection is deep, and it’s a Liverpool supporters bar. What’s not to love about this bar?
One of the best places to watch a Liverpool game specifically or any sporting events in general. It's also home to the official Liverpool supporters club of Brooklyn. Amazing place with a great atmosphere to watch a match!
I’ve been coming here for many years. I’m always treated with respect. I never had any issues ordering drinks, to me there’s no wait time and all my drinks are made perfect. I highly enjoy the atmosphere, the crowd. It’s an awesome chill spot.
First time in this establishment. I had a great time watching all the sport. Basketball and Copa America with my Peruvian friend who I met at the bar. Our bartender Francis went above and beyond. Back in Ireland they say he has a hand made of lead. The pints were superb. 5/5 would recommend to a friend.
Official Liverpool FC Supporters Club Brooklyn's home base, owned by real scousers. rotating selection of local craft beers, affordable mixed drinks, pinball machines, patio, friendly and cool bartenders. that is: it's the best bar G*d created
Love this place ! If you just want a chill night go here, bartenders are great. Friendly and warm service. You will most likely run into old friends you haven't seen in a while.
Came in to meet friends and catch a champions league match. Sat in the back yard to watch the game. Fun friendly atmosphere. The bartender Yohan was great. Definitely will go back.

Cool bar. Appreciate the games they have in there, especially the pac man and chess.
Go for the gin and vodka punch cocktails, and play some Jenga with friends. Good times.
Local Brooklyn pub. simple and friendly has outdoor seating.With umbrellas.
The best Liverpool supporters pub in Brooklyn
Nice place to hang out with friends and family
Walking dead pinball, good pints
Proper Soccer pub ..... and more
Customer service could improve
Rugby and soccer on the TV, but more “pub with an edge” than anything vaguely resembling a sports bar. They have a UK centric beer menu and a selection meat pies, complete with sausage rolls for the brave.
Pretty chill bar, I come here to catch up with one of my friends.Good for a few drinks and conversating / pinball machine. Noah the bartender is pretty awesome too.
i often come here to watch soccer games. The drinks are well-prepared and reasonably priced. Their backyard is amazing
Love the place. But it's quite small and gets packed veeeeeryyy early on weekend. Came there before the early morning Saturday game and wasn't able to get in. I won't be coming on weekend again
It's a dive bar with a few TVs and outdoor seating in the back. All workers are very friendly.
Typically go by Monro on a random whim, but it always is a good time. Bartenders are always really cool to talk with.
Good pies, footy bar. Small but friendly. Nice and cozy in the winter.
Love this low-key British bar owned by a couple that met at a bar of the same name in the UK. While they have a small wine selection (2 red, 2 white), they have a great beer selection, serve yummy cocktails and have British bites including pies. Big plus: an outdoor garden with giant umbrellas and tables.
Hands down an excellent bar to hang out and catch a game. Have a few pints with friends and put some music on the jukebox. They don't serve food but you can order in and eat it there. The staff of amazing, if Johan is there you're going to have a great time. Make sure you take care of him, and he'll take care of you. Depending on the hour I've found parking time and time again. Definitely returning here, again.

Friendly bartenders and good drinks. I've never been here on a Friday are Saturday night, bit the test of the time it's a good neighborhood bar. They wolf be 5 starts, but the bar stools don't have backs.

It's ok they need better variety
The bartender is great but often short-staffed.
Bad experience, rude with tourists
Beer tastes like they never clean. Bartender doesn't like when you comment on how terrible the beer is. Spaghetti all over the floor, very unprofessional.
Very rude bartender, we felt unwelcomed for being foreigner tourists. We left the bar and went to the other one on the corner immediately after our first interaction with him.
Solid backyard ambiance, some of the slowest service you can imagine even when the bar is half empty. Pretty solid spot if you dont mind feeling like an inconvenience to the bartender whenever you want a drink and dont mind attitude.
Went to this pub for the gotham fc game last night because the original bar was over flowing and we were told they had agreed to host us. I found the bartenders immediately annoyed and dare I say misogynistic throughout the night. When I flagged down one of them to order for a friend he pointed a pen in my face and said “don’t do that.” He was apparently trying to find someone that had ordered a drink and had walked away, not sure how I was meant to know this information. I guess ordering a drink at a bar was rude of me. I then overheard him multiple times refuse to close out tabs because it was too busy, then spend a good five minutes filing the card away (not sure how this was faster than closing out). As a frequent visitor to gay bars I promise closing out is not a lengthy experience. I witnessed an argument over this where someone was leaving the bar and he refused to close them out, again spending more time arguing with them over closing their tab than it would take to close it. He then over charged them by multiple drinks and when pointed out was annoyed that he had to adjust it (I have now seen other reviews with this same experience so check your receipt). Men were treated with handshakes and attentiveness and women (who were the primary customers for the women’s soccer game) were treated as nuisances. Will not be returning. response to the bars response: my experience was having a man point at me and aggressively say “don’t do that” when i flagged him down for my friend to order a drink. i only noticed the way they treated others after being directly reprimanded and being right next to those ordering and being treated poorly as well and hearing their grievances. not subjective at all, just observant.
Terrible service and terrible bartender. Bartender couldn't handle that I said that Old Speckled Hen is not a good beer. He kept telling me not to say that, as if I'm not allowed to voice an opinion about a taste of a beer? He then aggressively pulled our beers out of our hands and told us to get out. Definitely don't recommend this spot!
Extremely rude and aggressive bartender. No respect. Rudely took my gfs coffee out of her hand that she was trying to finish and throw away before she could order. Will not be back. Go elsewhere - much better options around.
