Cozy spot. Friendly mixologists and excellent cocktails. Can’t wait to go back.
One of the best bars in New York - especially if you like whiskey. The bartenders are walking whiskey encyclopedias...
Bartenders are great! Cool place with tons of different cocktail options

Ned stark Americillin Great neighborhood spot bourbon cocktail bar, warm hospitality, awesome drinks and food, 150+ bourbons
Good drinks, friendly staff, down to earth environment. Fits the neighborhood and the community. Will be back...
Amazing Bourbon spot. Kentucky owner and bartenders know their stuff.
Best Whisky Bar in Brooklyn, excellent Bar Keep, a great spot
Great people.. Great whiskeys.. Great beers.. Great music.. They do it right
Great cocktails and whiskey, even better service!
Excellent cocktails even if you're not a fan of whiskey like me! The barman definitely knows what is doing and can give you great advice and explanations if you're hesitating with the long list of cocktails and whiskeys.
Best whiskey bar I've experienced! The owner and all of the staff are so friendly and awesome! And, as a plus, their bathroom is the cleanest I've experienced in NY!
10/10 neighborhood bar run by some of the best chaps in New York City. a must for those who love rock n roll—the music here is great
If I lived in Greenpoint this would be my local. You know after 1min if the bar you enter is for you. The MLM ticks my boxes. Great Ale selection. Spirit selection is off the scale. Free juke box. Clean toilets. Friendly helpful staff. Dont want to leave.
Awesome bar with the best whisky selection around. Great vibe and friendly bartenders as well. Highly recommend!
Whoa this bar in brooklyn is LEGIT. 150 different whiskies and great service. Right now im sipping on a 'White Talied Buck' - one of the 13 or so specialty cocktails that um dyin to explore. There are plenty of bars in the borough but this is 'Brooklyns Finest'. Check up on it!
I'm sorry, are you looking at me? Look away, look back, omg it's a whiskey! I could joke around all day, but in being serious for a moment... Oh, you are still here? This bar has everything, music, laugher, whiskey, not Dan Cortez but an amazing owner that cares for his staff and most importantly.... YOU! Sorry, you might not want to come here, because I might be keeping this best kept secret to myself.....
A ray of light to guide you through the darkness. Fabulous selection of spirits curated by a Louisville native. Can't wait to return.
Great drink selection (wine and cocktails) and amazing atmosphere. Highly recommend.
Best Bar in greenpoint, best whiskey Bar in New York city. Wonderful atmosphere and comfortable outdoor seating.
almost dont want to review and let the secret out. great cocktails, even better whiskey. come early for a seat outside.
Fantastic friendly bar ... to have a drink there is to join the family .... thanks so much ... a memorable evening of friends and memories.... and fantastic drinks service and facilities :-))))))) XXXXX
Best american whisky bar in town. Super friendly staff. Awesome jukebox!!
Amazing cocktails and staff. No food here, but with their whiskey selection who cares?
Awesome whisk(e)y drinks at good prices. Really nice ambiance and decor plus a jukebox
Awesome service and great cocktails, also the owner is a super nice guy so, enjoy.
The best spot in Greenpoint for cocktails with friends! Amazing vibes and the friendliest staff around. Garry and Becky are the best!! Highly recommend!
Really nice and comfortable setup. Me and the Mrs. hung out at this place on a rainy Friday evening, perfect weather and ambience for some whiskey cocktails.. It's a perfect place to be if you enjoy beer as well and they have a nice selection of beers on draft from Pilsners to IPA's.. My wife had 2 cocktails... Old fashioned and Ned Stark, both whiskey based drinks... She did not enjoy Ned Stark so much and kept complaining that it was sweet (or she was just drunk)... The staff is absolutely amazing. They are very attentive and provided excellent quality of service. Extremely friendly and welcoming people too! With 2 whiskeys and 3 beers, our tab was $45.
The owner and his team took great care of me. Great cocktails, excellent knowledge of the countless bottles of American whiskeys on the wall, and excellent service - what more can you ask for?! Check this place out! Excellent beer list to boot. -Mike (the guy who loves Koval whiskey)
One of my favorite cocktail bars in New York overall. Gary and Jake were amazing to be around. My favorites include the Jon Snow and Ned Stark. If I lived near here, I would be a regular here. I highly recommend it.
Personable staff and very well tuned atmosphere. You can bring a crew to get fired up for the night or bring your laptop or book and hang out. Either way you’ll be served a quality drink: They make a mean Manhattan to boot.
My absolute favorite bar in the neighborhood. It has wonderful ambience with the nicest staff, repeat customers (which is always a good sign!) and dogs. My favorite thing to do is work there with a glass of wine and enjoy their music!
The best whiskey bar in Greenpoint ! Love Greenpoint sour !
I've been coming here for years. Every person that works at Moonlight is nice, polite, and entertaining, not to mention the cocktails are literally the best I've ever had (get the Moonlight and the Jon Snow, extra spicy). I've brought friends, family, and co-workers here and everyone is blown away by the drinks and the vibe. If you're in Greenpoint, you have to stop in!
Funny story...we walk by all the time and finally decided to enter. To our surprise it's a whiskey bar. We decided to try another bar AND Gary literally chased after us and asked us what was wrong. When explained, Gary took the time to show us around and GUARANTEE that we would like our drinks. Gary came with the drinks and they were excellent. Gary resulted to be the owner. That attention to detail and customer service is what makes any establishment and The Moonlight Mile has both. Go.
get a drink and buy the one dollar cheese sandwich. take said sandwich home, throw it on the grill and *boom*....solid restaurant-quality grilled cheese. the bar is great, good whiskey, beer and other alcohol selection. good spot for a night cap!
An absolute gem in the neighborhood. Gary and the entire Moonlight team are true class acts. I've been a regular since they first opened and the vibe, cocktails and people have been consistently excellent.
This is a solid neighborhood spot. Good drinks, good staff and good casual vibes. The Ned Stark cocktail was pretty smooth.
Really lively bar with a fun crew, jukebox, and great music. Seems pretty new compared to the rest of Greenpoint, but still worthwhile. 250 whiskeys! And a few cocktails (delicious mind you) with a Game of Thrones theme.
My favorite bar. I’ve had every cocktail on the menu and they’re all delicious. About half are whiskey-forward while the other half are more subtle which is great for friends that are new to whiskey. Plenty of non-whiskey options as well if it’s not your thing. Everyone who works here is awesome and the jukebox is free. Get on it.
Huge American whiskey collection . Lots of never heard of (by me) 😀 lovely place to hang around . Note no louuud music . Good atmosphere to make friends
Very friendly owner who was happy to serve and chat with customers, it has a casual atmosphere and I love their drinks (especially The Rockaways
Great cocktails, fun atmosphere and I got 🫶🏼 from a bartender. (It was supposed to be a G 😉) What else can you ask for?!
Lovely, cozy bar... You can enjoy sitting outside and sipping your beer on a summer day. Great selection of drinks as well.
Very chill place, bartender and owner are very friendly and knowledgeable, three drinks were strong and the atmosphere was relaxed, literally can't go wrong with this place.

This place is truly impressive with its fantastic ambience, friendly staff, and delicious cocktails. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed evening out. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure everyone was taken care of. And the cocktails were delicious, with a great variety to choose from and expertly crafted flavors. If you're looking for a place to unwind with great drinks and excellent service, this bar is definitely worth a visit!
Incredible spot for new years, wonderful hosts and an amazing bar
Fantastic atmosphere in that it has low-key energy combined with an established neighborhood-y bar specializing in whiskey. The spirits list goes on & on. The specialty cocktails are mostly whiskey based; I recommend the white walker. Fun jukebox. Great for groups, dates, & casual meet ups. Small bites available. Lots of wood.
I cant stress this place enough. One of the best bars in Brooklyn with some of the best bartenders ever. Great Whiskey selection and amazing cocktails
Best neighborhood bar in greenpoint hands down. They have a great beer selection and so many whiskeys. Always playing good rock and roll music. The staff is nice and the owner is truly a great dude who knows his whiskey. Really chill vibe with some cool decor. It's an even better summertime bar with outside seating and big windows that open up
Excellent selection of whiskeys and bourbons
Top notch cocktails and fantastic service. They also have a very tasteful selection of beers and wine by the glass. Comfortable atmosphere, tasteful decor, and a great location. This could be the perfect bar. I wish I lived close by so that I could become a regular.

My favorite bar, love the vibe and experience
The drinks were good here. The staff is really friendly too. The prices were reasonable too.
Low key spot. Great cocktails and beers. (I was in the mood to #TurnUp ... so I was very disappointed. But great afterwork, chill spot.)
One of the most robust whiskey selections in the city. Also very friendly staff.
generic (in a good way) greenpoint bar. not pretentious. jukebox. lots of whiskies.
Great place if you're a whiskey lover! Also the bartenders aren't bad looking either ;)
Staff seems to really care about you getting the right drink and do a damn good job at making them. Highly recommend you come in and let the staff surprise you.
Nice bar, mainly beer and whisky with limited other spirits on offer. But good atmosphere
Really nice hip, swanky spot. Bartenders are passionate about their jobs. A good craft beer list and lots of bourbons to try from. They also project old concert performances on the wall. Good place to hang for a cocktail and unwind.
Decent drinks and interesting combinations but I found them a bit too expensive for the size/booze. They also only had outdoor seating and it was absolutely freezing that day; some sort of heating devices would be nice to have.
Loved the vibe here. It's Whiskey centric. The Cocktails are amazing and they have unique Draft Beers. The prices are reasonable. They have an old time Jukebox which is actually free. The people are friendly. I would definitely come back.
Low key place with endearing charm. Great for summer nights with windows that open so an airy feel to the entire space. Cocktail menu is fantastic for bourbon lovers like myself but the cocktails themselves were hit or miss. Free jukebox is a really nice touch.
I ordered the white walker cocktail, and it was spot on! Bartender was also really hospitable and patient (loved his pink hairband as well ☺️). The acoustics in the bar were really bad, though, and it was hard to speak to each other (hence, we went to sit outside).
Cool spot with fantastic selection of beer wine and whisky. Open-air street corner vibes with friendly service and fun snacks. Do it.

wouldve wanted more beer variety. but i cant complain since I didnt really stay that long
It says dog friendly but they’re not. Bring your ESA letter.
Dont come here with a big group. We were here last Saturday an hour before closing with a group of 8 people and the bartender literally yelled at us 3 times to move to separate tables. Said we were blocking the pathway to the bar - we weren't and the bar was mostly empty. Drinks are mediocre at best.
Terrible service from a bartender more interested in his phone and chatting up to girls half his age than talking to anyone else in the room. Friend and I ordered a beer each to start and quickly realised the lines haven’t been cleaned for a while. Tried to order a whiskey as we were excited to check out the selection but were ignored until we stood up to leave with half our beers remaining. At this point we were asked if we didn’t like the beers, then dismissed upon telling them they weren’t very good. Would not go back
