Recensioni di The Freak Bar Brooklyn
This is hands down my favorite bar. Beer centric menu with locally themed decor, a pinball machine, art, an upstairs museum, and regular performances that keep Coney Island energy alive. There are so many layers to this spot. It’s delightfully fun and brings the strongest classic show feel of anything in the area. Don’t miss the museum upstairs! It’s only $5 and has some cool info.
Such a cool bar! Loads of memorabilia and knick-knacks to look at, reasonably priced drinks, friendly staff and a cool gift shop with fun things to buy. Loved that the beers were super in-keeping with the freak show theme too - all very carnival-esque. We went on the day of the film festival where they were playing films shot on Coney Island incl The Warriors. Didn't stay for any films but loved the concept! Was definitely a bar highlight of the whole trip to NYC. Apparently they normally have a circus style show with fire breathers, etc, but that wasn't on when we went because of the film festival. Sounded very cool though!
Freak Bar at 1208 Surf Avenue, Brooklyn, NY, is a quirky gem on Coney Island. This eclectic bar bursts with personality, featuring vibrant murals, vintage toys, and carnival-themed decor. The drink menu is diverse, offering craft beers, IPAs, seltzers, and wines. The atmosphere is lively, perfect for a fun night out, with a nod to Coney Island’s sideshow history. A must-visit for an offbeat experience!
Super chill and relaxed vibes. No beer on tap, just cans and bottles from a fridge. The cat was a tough bouncer, but a couple scratches under the chin and he'll let you in with no problem. Tattoos not required, but seemed encouraged. I truly wish Coney Island would take a page from this decor, a nice bar alternative to the boardwalk options.
A must see in Coney Island. Enjoy the show.

A must see in Coney Island. Enjoy the show.
LOVED this place. Just a small bar, but tons too look at. Nick gave us an awesome tour of the museum. Great personal insights & had great fun on the pinball machines. A must visit if you are in a chill mood & looking for hidden gems!
Very weird, good beer, fun shows. The museum is so awesome. Probably my favorite place to grab a drink at coney island.
Better than the beach. More exciting than the rides. More Coney than the Island.
Definitely a good place to get your freak on. Beer is always cold. During intermissions on some shows it's a great place to meet the performers. They have a museum upstairs with some great artifacts. You can rent the place for any occasion and you can hire the performers for an event. A place where everyone is family.....COME ON IN....Don't forget the gift shop.
Freak bar is a must try bar if you wanna explore a part of Coney Island freak history. I love the environment and the vibe of people in this establishment ❤️
One of the best spots in NYC, hands down.
Must visit place. For Coney island to do list, beach, Luna Park, board walk and freak bar. My classic.... also I feel freak bar have all the coney island of souls. Something magically, just visit to bar and have 🍻, you will have feeling better...
It was definitely a must-see when visiting Coney Island, we came to see a show and enjoyed a few drinks while waiting.
Went to coonie to be where the warriors had been filmed come across this really great bar me and my husband are from England and you will find nothing like this bar back home the show was the best plus the bar man was so wonderful
It is definitely different and out of the so-called norm. I attended the Dr. Sketchy’s anti-art session. Everyone was very nice and welcoming.
We had a good time. Lots of laughs and smiles. All the staff were super friendly.
Surprised to see the best selection of KCBC beers outside of one of their breweries.

This bar is very big on KCBC beers (canned). They have other options, of course, but have quite a large selection of KCBC specifically. 🍺 The atmosphere is very, 'if you took apart a carnival, and decorated a bar with it' (you'll see what I mean 😏). Not in a bad way, but a unique 'dive bar charm' way.

The Coney Island freak show is preformed here. A rip off. The acts are less and less and the price is going up. Online it states $10 for children but at the door they charged me $15 for my children. Not going back for a lame show
