Awesome trivia night. On Wednesday nights they host a trivia tournament which is a blast. A great group of people gather to answer a bunch of fun questions. The winning team gets a $100 towards their bar tab and 2nd and 3rd get free pitchers.

I am super glad I found this place as it is just an over all sick vibe. If you are in the area looking for a great place to get your drink on this is the spot. Also very fun day drinking with good pizza and food.

A livesaver for bar-starved Boerum Hill. If you're not in the mood for the seediness of Hanks, and with the Brooklyn Tavern now alternating between a morgue and a raunchy frat house, Cherry Tree is 'da Bomb. 4th Avenue Pub is a bit too closed-quarters and Pacific Standard is a little too obnoxiously hip. Good drink specials and friendly staff. They don't have food anymore but you can easily order from a vast menu selection.

a favorite. i love the bar. hands down. i don't need to say more but i must. the selection of beers is outstanding and even with the food on hiatus it is still enjoyable, plus you can order food from the corner and it's there in 10 minutes.

the bartenders are phenomenal. was there today and the daytime girl (Kate i think her name was) was fun as she rocks out to the music selection while making a banging margarita. (she's easy on the eyes as well). the guys are sweet and reserved but once they strike up a conversation just sweethearts.

loved it. i'd recommend it to anyone in parkslope or in NYC near a train.

Cool place. Chill vibe. Great beer.. I love a good pint of local beer, in an unpretentious bar that I can bring a date to or where I can meet friends after work. I like not having to shout for or fight my way to the bartender. I also hate bratty young hipsters that ruin neighborhoods and don't know how to behave. Keep your clubs. You can have the LES and your shots. Go to Union Hall, did you know that place has free bocci ball? But stay outa my way, kid.

Outstanding Pizza, Brilliant Atmosphere. Whoa, whoa, whoa... Well, I never expected reviews like this. My girlfriend and I lived in Brooklyn for three months during the summer of 2007 and this was our favorite place. We are not big drinkers i.e. one, maybe two with dinner, and are fairly reserved being from the midwest. I had noticed this place and so we went. It was an amazing experience! The pizza there was phenominal, the crust was perfect, thin crust, and absolutly delicious. The bar does fill fast but I would rather sit on the patio anyway. Speaking of which, coolest patio setting anywhere. They have a brick oven in the back of it and that really added to the atmosphere. My one complaint? They gave me the wrong beer...so they let me drink that one and also got me the right one...and didn't charge me for either. Not really much of a complaint.
