This place is so awesome, that I proposed to my girlfriend there this past Saturday night. Our friend Liz brought us last year and we had such a great time and everyone was so nice and real, that it is now a special place for us. Such a great place with great people. Special thanks to Liz, Kerry, and Michael, as well as anyone there in the back with us when I popped the question. Awesome bar!

Such a dingy, no frills bar. Cheap beers, shots and food. Frito pie and hot dog was a nice snack. Fairly busy and pretty quick dor service. Would happy drop in again any time

Amazing old school bar with great atmosphere, food, drink selection and quick and sweet service! Also the patio is very cute, can't wait to go there on a warmer day!

what can I say? one of the best places in new york. amazing food, great drinks, really cool people and service/owners. it’s one of those places where you never really want to leave.

Don't trick yourself looking from the outside. Once you get inside you will find a cozy, lay back and cool atmosphere to enjoy drinks, food or be in the backyard with friends. There is no push from the bartender to get drinks every time, no drunk people yelling, good spot with music, tv and special event. This has become our place and we had a great time everytime we show up. Don't expect to have a waiter checking on you all time time because the bartender is pretty much the one who run the tables when they can, still they are always available and helpful for whatever you need. Prices are very affordable including for drinks and they got special and happy hours. Highly recommended place if you want a classic old school bar in a cozy warm place in a safe environment to eat or drink.

A true Red Hook gem, and an unparalleled place to spend a Sunday afternoon. These guys have everything you want in a day drinking spot: awesome burgers and wings (especially the wings), cheap beer/shot specials, board games and a jar of candy by the door. Spend an afternoon at this place and you’ll wanna come back again and again.

Small old school bar with back yard with great pub fare style food and reasonably priced drinks!

This Red Hook staple has a great atmosphere, with a menu that tastes like a home-cooked meal. The backyard is a perfect spot to hang out, and the staff always bring a friendly vibe. Plus, the pints are affordable and well-served. A solid place to enjoy time with both old and new friends.

Rated high for the overall atmosphere and dive bar vibes. The food is broadly average at really good prices. Solid enough food if you’re having beers and enjoying the evening but not good enough to come for on its own. The 7.5 burger was a little soggy bun with little in the way of flavour. The 7.5 wings were a good size but a little dry. The fries and onion rings were 6.5 at best, far too over crisped. The best dish was the 8.5 tater tots, great fresh fry and salt combo!

Mixed impressions. The bar itself is great, with decent selection of beers and liquors. Barmen were all friendly and efficient . Nice outdoor setting, but was impossible to get a waitress although there were not really many people to serve, it was half empty. So I went back to the bar. The burger I ordered came out quite fast, but they forgot fries somehow - had to go myself to kitchen and remind them. And then I tried the burger - tasteless is a mild word to describe it. Better get McSomething than this. Really disappointing...

I express my profound dissatisfaction with Bartneder's customer service. We were repeatedly informed that gratuity was mandatory, despite ordering only bottled/canned beverages and food; no specialized drink preparation or table service was involved. While we intended to tip, this expectation was negated by the server's approach of offering shots and subsequently demanding gratuity beforehand. Consequently, I will be patronizing The Kettle Black instead😎🐎!!!
