I enjoyed coming to this bar in Park Slope. The drinks and service was very good. The ambience of the bar was nice and the drinks were reasonably priced. Also the bartender was funny and made everyone who came feel welcomed. Definitely will come back again.

Pretty decent bar. Doesn't really have a food menu with the exception of pretzels and a few sandwiches. Cocktails are banging and the prices are very reasonable. Happy Hour is before 7:00.

Went during happy hour on a Saturday and the place wasn't busy at all. Good beers on tap, pretty generous portions on the appetizers and they have a ton of seating options which is nice. Good neighborhood bar, we'll be back.

We come here from time to time and the other bartenders are lovely. There is a female bartender who is very rude on Tuesday nights I rarely see her but she chooses to make drinks in a way that’s convenient for her. Gives you 1 beer to share for two which never has happened to us at this location . She must really hate making micheladas as she proceeds to complain about having to clean the sink. Says she won’t make it moving forward even though it’s on the menu .. I have no words What kind of bartending service is this!

Overcharged for a beer. I ordered an $8 beer and was charged $10.42 plus tax and tip. When asked about it, the bartender said that it was including taxes and fees, but taxes were on top of that. I don't know what other fees there would be, she did not specify. On top of that she told me after she charged me that there was a credit card minimum so she had to charge me an additional $1, without asking or even informing me first. I wasn't in the mood to make a fuss, but I won't be back.

Hit or miss. I've had bartenders who are friendly and engaging, quick with an unprompted water refill. Tonight was a bit different; the two bartenders were both down at the far end of the bar, chatting with regulars. I saw one guy come in, sit at the near end of the bar for about 10 minutes, and then leave, presumably because he wasn't served. Perhaps if I were a regular (I've been 4-5 times) I might appreciate it more. It's a decent spot with a good draft selection, but that doesn't exactly make it stand out in Brooklyn.

Love the layout and comfort of this bar, but WOW is one of the bartenders exceedingly rude. Passive aggressive, actively insulting multiple people who are just trying to have a good time, and even overheard making a misogynist comment about women in their 30s. It costs you nothing to just keep your mouth shut, but I guess that's too difficult for some people. Never coming back. Our group went two doors down to the Monro and it was infinitely better. Edit: see his response in case you doubted what this dude is like in reality lmao. First of all, it was 20, not 30, and half of them we didn't expect to actually show up (not that if we had called beforehand, you were likely to accommodate us anyway, so maybe don't argue in bad faith). Us bringing a crowd wasn't a problem anywhere else we went, so maybe this is a you problem? And the comment you made was to a regular, implying that all women in their 30s are on their "first marriage," which tracks with some of the other reviews I've seen. You also told my friend that they were "basic" for ordering an Old Fashioned, and later you shook another's credit card in her face while she was trying to decide if she wanted another drink. So, disrespectfully, you're straight up lying about your behavior and a simple apology probably would have been more apt.

I was standing up outside the Bar. I ask my husband to join me for a drink at the Bar. He was on his way to the bar so I sat on a chair outside of the bar to wait for him to arrive. An employee asked me if I’m having a drink with them today I said I would love to. Before I could finish explaining that my husband was on his way and can I wait for him. The employee (a man not a gentleman) said the seats are only for people drinking with them. He was ever rude and dismissive. How about a hell, how are you doing. Can I get you anything to drink today. Not much to ask is it? We need to be kinder to each other, especially when you’re in the service business. We all have bad days but when you are services the public who are serving smiles, nice attitude, warm gestures etc. I hope this was an off day for him because there wasn’t a person in the bar. I hope he recognizes why.

THE BARTENDER HURT MY FEELINGS. I came to the skylark for my first drink in several months due to a bout of illness from my autoimmune disease. Despite the negative effects alcohol can have on the body I thought it might be nice for me to have a drink with my friends and take a load off. Boy was I wrong. When I approached the bar the bartender had his back turned, and ignored me for a LONG time. I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, and assumed he was just busy. After waiting for quite some time a very beautiful woman came to the bar and to my surprise the bartender served her immediately! Due to my illness, I currently have a bald head and look EXTREMELY bad. I try not to let this dissuade me from venturing out into the world, but experiences like this don’t make it easy. When the rude bartender finally did take my order I chose not to tip him, to which he said GEE THANKS A LOT. I have been smoke free for several months due to my illness, but after this interaction I went straight outside to smoke a cigarette, and will probably finish this pack by the end of the night. The whole experience was very upsetting and I will NOT be coming back. You have made a life long enemy today.

Went on a Saturday night with my girlfriend and one of her friends. The bar itself is fine, clearly a local spot for locals, outsiders not welcome.. From the beginning, I thought the bartender was being unusually rude, and as the night progressed I would even say his behavior was borderline racist (I am not white...in park slope I know). The bartender was extremely slow to take orders, even with the place being half empty; after ordering beers he got them "wrong" walked down the counter and started laughing with some regulars about "those idiots who don't know where they are". The friend with us is allergic to wheat/rye used to to make most alcohol, so she usually only has tequila when she goes out to drink. After ordering three shots of espolon, the bartender scoffed at us and exclaimed, "what, you don't want a beer!?" As if he was personally offended he couldn't serve us overpriced swill from the bar's dirty taps. And yes, the beer did taste off from the taps, I tried four different beers over the course of the night (things I usually drink from the bottle at home), and they all had a similar unpleasant aftertaste to them.To top off this amazing experience, I was shushed by the bartender presumably for being too loud. Meanwhile several regulars are at the end of the bar counter screaming their heads off and that's fine.. I will never return, and would caution that you stay away as well.. People of color are not welcome in this establishment at night.
