Maybe during sporting events there is more life, but it doesn't give hangout vibes like other places do (like Tap Beer). With that being said, the service is super friendly and I'd go back if I was in the area.

The posted hours were till midnight but I stopped in a bit after 11 and was told they were closing early. She made it seem like she was doing me a favor to serve me a beer. While I was there a group of people came in, and she told the they were closed. I guess they don't want the business? Weird way to run a bar.

They take their beer seriously, so don't think about asking for a Bud Light or anything similar. You might get a death stare from the staff. The food is exactly what you'd want with a good beer. Just don't expect anything fancy - this isn't that place. The service? Old school no-nonsense. It's not white glove treatment but it's genuine and fitting the atmosphere. Music isn't blasting so we all can have a normal conversation. There are plenty of TV throughout so no one will miss a game.

I had one beer for $10, one cocktail for $16, and fries for $7. Somehow the total came out to $42, which simply doesn't add up. The bartender wasn't helpful at all and never provided a receipt. When I asked about the total, he said there was an automatic 18% service charge. Honestly, it felt like a joke. He even said the fee was "for staying in to drink" -- which makes no sense. Where else would you drink if you're at a bar? If this is how they operate, I won't be coming back, and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

I was not interested in the puppets, I'd say I'm actually more anti-puppet than not but the show was amazing! I found out there's a whole puppeteering subculture in this city, and there were lots of performances I wouldn't have even considered to fall into that genre. The staff were all great, really welcoming and engaging. The manager Patrick as well as the MC of the show were so well versed in both Coney Island, sideshow, and general pop-culture history. And the band put on one hell of a show, they do creepy noir/murder ballads that draw inspiration from Tim Burton and other dark artists. The bar has a museum and gift shop and runs events most weekends (magic shows, fundraisers, burlesque, etc.). Unlike the rides, Freak Bar stays open every weekend into the winter. $6 Coronas. Come out, it's fun!

Open from 11 AM to 11 PM, they also sell dried fishes, smoked ones or chip-like ones in packages. A typical Russian store, so the guy speaks in Russian even though you speak English to him :) That's a typical of Brooklyn, especially if the person is over 50 years. Still he called someone to assist us in English but it was not necessary when body language and beer names helped us to a point :) We wanted to get Kronenbourg but he was like ' Eta frukty - unfiltered '. He kind of thought we will not like it since it has a fruity flavor etc. and in the end we got Erdinger :) Store has a check in offer but I did not bother him thinking it will be a double challenge for him. Saved it for later :) Would stop by again.
