Came here for St. Patrick's Day with some friends. They love the beer here so we decided to join. I got a Captains Blood cocktail and it was good, def strong mezcal taste, followed by a classic margarita. The fries were the star of the show for me. I'm a sucker for crispy French fries and they did not disappoint! My wings were also good, they took them before I could finish or take them home, wasn't to happy bout that. & didn't adjust my check for the inconvenience. They do alil too good of a job with clearing the table... with little to no notice, almost like they want you to leave . The smash burger was sooo good. It's hard to find a good burger with all the toppings now a days. Other than that.. the vibes are cool to meet up with friends or lil date night. In the front by the sterling entrance there's a different vibe, alil more quiet. The back has the bar with the games, etc. I'd return for some fries for sure and maybe if they want to give me some wings on the house for the last inconvenience.

This is the place you go when you want to have a beer while watching a game or maybe have a laid back date night. Food 4/5: The food is simple and mostly bar food but I have never been disappointed. The menu is not too limited and even had a fee holiday specials so would def go back to try a few more items Drinks: 4/5 : Overall its your standard bat menu with a good amt of cocktail options if you want to mix it up. I think the happy hour cant be beat with $10 drinks and less! Service: everything comes super fast and the bartenders ate very friendly, I really have no complaints about this place except maybe that they need better music and it can get pretty hot because of the heat. I def recommen

Nice little spot the music is loud. You can barely hear yourself talk. It's like a à la cart. Everything you have to get yourself like silverware forks so very upfront with the tip. I wish I would've known that I had to get my condiments, water, silverware first prior to the purpose of paying a tip for service that you're not getting also, you have to get up and get your own everything. But the burger was pretty good my friend and I got a fish cod sandwich. I got a burger. It was pretty good however, we ordered at the same time and it came out like super late at different time so we weren't able to enjoy our meal together which was the wholepurpose of us going to a restaurant together...

Franklin park!!!!! This is for sure one of my favorite go too spots within Brooklyn, if you're looking for A great place to hang, catch up with friends or even drink with your person of interest This is the place to be. Oh so often I come here for the waffle fries and the mozzarella sticks, I'm literally addicted to them. If you're ever to stop by please give it a try but of course everything on the menu is pretty much delicious, the chef has not failed me yet. The staff is always welcoming and offer quick service, this time place is pretty much order your own food and drink by the bar and they'll give you a number to put on your table while you await your food. On Weekends they have waiters and waitresses for their brunch hours. This is a very affordable place, where you'll definitely get a bang for your buck. This place can get very busy some days, especially during the summer season. My only con is that they do not have Hennessy, other than that I'll always comeback here and bring friends with me.

Ask the Community - Franklin Park

Is this a decent place to write on my laptop during the afternoon and if so what days are best?

Yes it's a decent place for you to do so, the music isn't loud, it typically a very calm establishment. However you have to get up and order your food and drink at the bar. I haven't seen it get crowded there at all for as long as I've been going.… 

Are dogs allowed outside?

Yep.

I came here on a Friday around 6PM and got their happy hour that ends at 7PM. It wasn't super…read morecrowded which was nice! I ordered the gin gimlet with light simple syrup and it was great! I tried the wine punch too and it was also really refreshing and lighter than I expected! I'd definitely come back to try some other drinks, the back patio, and the pb+J!

I've been to this cocktail bar regrettably only twice even though I live (or rather lived upcoming…read moresoon) around the corner. It's classy but not too fancy and has enough space but doesn't get too loud. They have a nice happy hour menu from Tuesday-Friday from 5 to 7 as well as all day on Sundays which has very decent prices such as an $8 old fashioned among other things (see the photo.) the bartenders I've had before have been friendly with some good recommendations. Outside of their wide selection of cocktails which run the gamut of liquors, they have a nice wine selection, a handful of craft beers, and a very small food selection. The first time I was here, I had one drink which was the excellent Star of The Ice Snow for $17 with Iwai 45 whiskey, brie-washed Carpano Antica, Fernet Branca, barrel-aged orange bitters, and sassafras bitters. It had a a bit of bitterness, some sweetness, some spice, and some light mint from the fernet and was a pleasant complex drink and was certainly worth it from the price. The second time I was here was just this evening where I had two drinks. I first went with something that I was thinking of getting the first time which is their outstanding Vivian Darkbloom for $15 with Union mezcal, lime, pineapple, charcoal, Velvet Falernum, and lime bitters. The drink has mild citrusy sweetness as well a bit of smoke from the mezcal and is probably my favorite drink I've had here though the other drink I had the first time gives it stiff competition. I asked the bartender what he recommends and after a small discussion, he said either The Bell Witch (which is a gin and chartreuse cocktail with a strong herbal flavor) or what I went with. Said drink was the Under a Cosmic Cloak for $16 with rhubarb infused rum, Trois Rivieres rum, Smith & Cross rum, yerba mate, lime, grapefruit, and whey. The bartender said that it wouldn't be overly sweet as the rum was milk washed and this was indeed the case with just a mild sweetness and some fruitiness. There was a light herbal flavor otherwise presumably from the mate as well as a light citrus note and overall, it was good though definitely the least complex of the drinks I've tried and probably my least favorite but was definitely not a bad drink. The drinks here are reasonably priced for the quality, the bartenders are friendly, and it is classy but not overbearingly so. I can see why it's popular and I wish I stopped in more.

Pretty elusive and mysterious vintage bar located across from Carroll Park. It's dim-lit with…read morecandles and simple decor, which makes for a perfect date night spot. The service was also great as the bartender was quick and got us our next drinks as soon as he saw we finished our first one. During our visit, we tried the Matt's Ginger Old Fashioned, Brooklyn, Vulcano, and Palermo Fix. All cocktails were $14 each, which were all nicely made. The Brooklyn was very strong and the Old Fashioned is a nice classic with a hint of ginger flavor. The other two were lighter with twists of sour. They also offer some paninis, plus a toasted lard bread ($5) that we ordered. The lard bread is from Mazzola, which is absolutely delicious, but kind of sad that they only offer 4 pieces. Cool bar in the neighborhood with tasty drinks. It's such a simple, yet sophisticated bar. There's also a pool table in the back to enjoy.

A terrific old school social club turned bar. The space is dark and intimate with not a ton of…read moreseating. Their drink menu isn't very large but it's good especially the cocktails. The Neapolitan is my favorite. The only food items they have are a few panini's so don't come here expecting a full food menu. They have a pool table in the back and outdoor seating. The service is always quick and the bartenders know how to make a cocktail. Love coming here whenever I'm out and about in Caroll Gardens.
