Bar with a lovely whiskey selection
Farrah B.

My friends love hanging here, and I decided to come by one night for trivia. It has a Brooklyn version of Cheers, with many regulars quipping up with inside jokes in unison. As comical as it was to watch, the first 15 minutes in the space took me back to the reviews of cold service. I was mostly ignored until my presence was verified by some regulars buying me rounds and authentic conversations. It seems like a cool whiskey club with drinks and a few items to nosh. Maybe a lot of folks come in for the bathroom or something. Go figure. Now. The rest of the experience was great. An amazing selection of whiskey, as well as other spirits ordinarily, is not in this area. The pizzas are pretty decent as well. I had the peppers and onion variety, and it was tasty. I'm sure I'll return as there are a few theme nights and great specials.

Love the feel of this place when you walk in. I love a bar that has that real bar feeling. The wooden bar with wooden stool to match. Small but not stuffy small. I came in to watch the playoff game, great place to watch sports. I know places bigger than this with barely enough tvs. Fulton Ale House has a lot of tvs and big. I found myself in Brooklyn because I had a friend in town that was staying close by this spot. So we randomly picked it out and it turned out to be a great spot. The beer wow the list would make any beer lover blush. I tried a new IPA and all I remember is the first part of the name -Sci-Fi. This is a great balanced IPA ABV 7% which is perfect. All in all so happy I stumbled upon this place, even though it's 45 mins I will be back! Several times! Thanks Mike!

First of All, the ambiance is great. The low lights and classic wood furnishings give the place a warm feel. There is also many TVs if you like sports and want to watch the Knicks game. ..lol ! It's not that big of a place, so come early. Besides that, the prices are decent and the customer service was great. I didn't ask for a menu but I guess they have limited options. The pizza tasted good, it wasn't overpowering. ENDLESS OPTIONS OF BEER AND DRINKS :-) Other than that, the music selection was pretty chill... quite diverse in a indie - pop- 70s funk kinda way. Nothing too millennial. Besides, the speakers blaring, you can hear your guest across the table. Anyways, it's a gem. Chill spots like this, on this side of Brooklyn, is rare. So, I hope this bar is here to stay.

Came here for drinks and links on a Tuesday night after a long day of work. The bar wasn't crowded. I was able to enjoy beer at happy hour prices. This bar is remarkable chill, ideal for catching up with friends and going on a date. There are also several games for you to play as you sip slow. There's chess, darts, and other board games. The bartender was also friendly and attentive. Definitely a great sports bar and an Amazing addition to Bed Stuy.

Unsafe. Unkind. Uninviting. Ole' Saint Nic looking barkeep put on his micro aggressing body of armor last night.. The story: we met at this locations with a handful of ladies to celebrate a birthday. The birthday girl isn't a big drinker so our requests were basic. Bottled beer, white, cocktails listed on the menu. The bar had about 5 other patrons present, but for some reason it took Santa forever to make our drinks, and then the alcohol served was made in a way that made the drinks undrinkable. No ice really for chilled beverages. No mixes for the mixed beverages. I literately could not drink what was ordered. I felt like I was served ever clear. This place is also located doors down from a wonderful French Fry spot (Spuds) from which we ordered and brought into the bar. After serving our drinks and closing our tabs, the bartender tells us no outside food... while we are eating and after we've set up at a full table. His explanation was that they serve food.. meanwhile.. there were no food menus in sight and no kitchen.. and no offerings of such. After telling the keep we'd finish our drinks at leave, he somehow had so much time to stand at the end of the bar where we were, and stare us down. I don't think he served anyone for a full 15 minutes or so because he was posturing like a peacock. At this point in time we weren't eating, our boxes of food were closed and bagged. He was literally trying to make our group feel uncomfortable and threatened. One member of our party politely asked him why he was postering so.. he confirmed indeed he'd been leaning on the bar in our direction for 15 minutes.. but that was due to his arthritis... The only thing that set us apart from the other patrons.. was our demographic. If you want a good drink. This isn't the place. I'd you want to feel safe and respected, I suggest any other place on the same block. Will never go back. Wish we had our money returned for the awful drinks and service. Will share this review with the local BBB and Chamber.

This was one of the stops on our Bedstuy walking tour. It was a nice size bar with seating in the back. I was there on a Saturday and had a refreshing and tart gimlet. The bartender was super friendly and attentive. It's a chill vibe. They have TV's so you can watch sports. I focused on the drink menu but I thing they also serve food. If you're in the area; stop in, sit down, have a drink and relax.

I don't get what's up with the negative comments. Idk if its the neighborhood but its weirdly hard to find a decent bar and this is probably one of my favorites that isn't too far from where I live. Great playlist, and awesome beer selection. It has everything a bar should be and there's nothing wrong with that. I was a little fairly surprised when I came in last night for a drink and there was a drag queen show. Loved it, great vibess and lots of love

Bartender ignored me and my other black friend (we watched as they served a white couple who came in after us), so we left.

Visited March 20, 2026…read more I loved this tasting room. My partner and I happened upon this place while waiting for a reservation because we'd never been to a tasting room before. The ability to get a glass of top shelf whiskey, scotch and spirits was a major plus. The bar keeper was absolutely friendly and I love the environment and the lighting. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Cooper & Oak is a whiskey lover's dream…read more Sitting right on a main street on the East Side, this place hits you the moment you walk in. Floor to ceiling, wall to wall bottles, an overwhelming sea of whiskey that makes you want to slowly walk the room and take it all in. That is easier said than done. The space is classic New York narrow, with a main customer aisle only about three and a half feet wide and slim alleys on either side for the owner to move through and grant your whiskey wishes. The selection feels endless. Flights, single pours, doubles, rare finds, and approachable favorites, it is all here. What truly makes the experience special is the owner. He is generous with his knowledge, happy to answer questions, and clearly loves sharing what he has curated. One of the best moments, my wife asked for something sweet, wheated, and low proof, over a single cube. He smiled and said the hardest part of that order was the ice. No ice. Everything is served neat. A purist's paradise. Seating is extremely limited and there are no reservations, so get here early. Watching the locals roll in was half the fun. Everyone was greeted like an old friend, which tells you everything you need to know about this place. We wished we had more time to stay and explore, but another reservation pulled us away. This spot deserves an unhurried visit. Come early, order neat, and trust the house.
