Skytown has a great ambiance. The room is dimly lit but has a fun vibe. The bar is the focal point of the room with a small kitchen at the end of the bar. The menu is small which I really like. Means the food is more consistent and with the size of their kitchen I couldn't imagine more than one person working back there. The service is great. I sat down at one of the small tables and was immediately acknowledged by the bartender. A short while later he came and took my drink order. Well cocktails and beers are part of the happy hour menu from 12-7! $4 well cocktails and $5 beers. Great price and great drinks! I got a Moscow mule The food menu is great! Small selection of typical American cuisine. I would call it bar food but fancier. The burger was amazing ! I asked for chipotle mayo instead of the roasted tomato mayo. It was delicious. I would recommend eating and drinking at SkyTown and if you check in using the yelp app you get a $2 well shot ! The service was great. Eri (the bartender/server) was kind and timely, he made the dining experience very enjoyable. Thanks Eri! read more

This is my local mid day / after work spot. Owner is setting up a super welcoming environment where everyone co mingles effortlessly. Joe and the rest of the staff are super nice and always make me and my group feel important and taken care of. I almost have my own menu item. read more

very impatient and rude service. honestly kind of sucks. server was in a fighting mood and there were only about 3 ppl here lol.

I found this place during a neighborhood stroll on a Friday afternoon and I have been back almost every week since. First experience during the week: Friday: It was quiet as it was only my friend and I and someone else at the bar. We were provided water immediately by the owner who gave great service. I had ordered the hummus platter and two bean tacos. My friend ordered the breakfast omelette which came with roasted potatoes and toast. The decor is great, artsy, chill with very great beats. There are large tables for bigger parties or if you need to do work. And there are bar stools at the window if you want to people watch. Bathrooms are unisex and very clean. There is a fully stocked bar for all your drinking wants. I was surprised at how large the hummus platter was. I ordered too much unknowingly, but it was all delicious. The hummus platter came with two types of olives, sweet peppers, and warmed pita bread. The bean tacos were also very great. It has a small kick of spice after a bite, so keep this in mind if you order the tacos. I'm sure you can order it without the sauce on top. Since, I've tried the egg sandwich, the breakfast omelette, and their hot chocolate which is amazing. I've also been there during the weekend which isn't my favorite time to go. It was livelier, they have a different menu for brunch and they have waitress' to serve, but the music was rough and loud and the waitress' could do with a smile on their faces. I did attempt to go here after a night out in the city and was surprised they were opened till 4a. My friends and I trekked and made it there 10 minutes before 4 to learn that their kitchen closes at 2a. Hugely disappointed but this hadn't detoured me from going the following day. I continue to eat here during the week. You may catch me on Friday mornings just as they open at 11:30a getting a hot chocolate and looking to explore something new on their ever-changing menu. read more

Great low-key neighborhood bar with some really good food, in this burgeoning area straddling the border of Bed-Stuy and Bushwick. The ramshackle, charmingly shabby and mismatched, low lit interior reminds me of the scruffier first generation "hipster" bars I used to frequent in Williamsburg back in the early-aughts, back before the massive redevelopment of the waterfront initiated its transformation into whatever that nightmare neighborhood is now. Food has been uniformly tasty, and this is crucially one of the only options for a decent sit down lunch in the immediate area, where I have found myself quite often for work as of late. Of particular note is the hanger steak sandwich, served on a deliciously fluffy pita that wonderfully sucks up the yummy steak and veggie juices as well as the sauce perfectly. Ditto another pita based chicken sandwich special on offering another time. In short, these guys really know how to put a pita to good use. Prices are across the bar pretty low and there's a generous all day happy hour that makes it extra sweet if your here midday and able to have the ol' midday drink or two. The proprietor is real nice guy and good conversationalist so that always just endears a bar to me that much more. read more

Came here for brunch one Sunday! The atmosphere is chill, the food was alright, and the menu was small. It was $16 which included an entree and one brunch drink (mimosa, Bloody Mary, or beer). I got the omelette which was good, but the home fries were cold, greasy, and soggy. Service, however, was the reason for the low score. It took us over 30 minutes to get the check. There were maybe 4 other tables being occupied, and we legit asked the server for our check FOUR OR FIVE TIMES, which included going to the bar twice just to be told he would "be right over" to bring the check to our table. It took us longer to get the check than it did everything else. Not sure how this place has such stellar reviews, but we probably won't be back. read more

The name says it all, you will be elevated by a visit here. Stopped in for brunch and had a blast. Calm environment, nice music, service was prompt, but the food did the job. I chose the Mornjng burger and my date had the French toast and Eggs in Hell. Not much to say but all that was left was a quarter of my burger bun. Oh, I forgot to mention the mimosa, Bloody Mary, or beer included with your entree(Brunch). I give my recommendation read more

Skytown - Morning Burger, side of fruit - New American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I came to Skytown for Brunch with my Book Club. Fortunately they were able to find a space for all of us to sit comfortably given that it was more than 10 of us. The waitresses were very accomodating especially since everyone in our group didn't arrive all together. I liked the variety and originality of the menu that was offered. I like the fact that you were able to get coffee/tea and unlimited mimosas. Given our group size the food came out promptly and hot. The waitresses were even nice and patient enough to let us all pay for our tabs separately. The decor of the establishment was relaxed and the music was good. It was understandable why a lot of people frequent the place especially for the brunch deals. Overall it was definitely a place I would like to visit again, most likely to see about their after hours scene. read more

Food was good and service was good! Perfect little date night spot. Chicken sandwich was bomb plus with veggie options.

SkyTown its one of those gems that has been around for awhile. Good Food. Great place to meet up with friends for drinks. read more

This was APBC stop # 5. Yea, this place closes at 4AM on a weeknight. Word. And wifi for the addicts out there. But, man was it Barack or Barak? I had issues... read more

First time in New York from LA love the vibe the steak sandwich and kale grilled chicken salad

I'll say I feel very experienced in the breakfast burrito but I have never had a breakfast taco. They did it right. Steak, pico, corn, eggs, taco things. Very large amounts of food and ALL very good. Lil spicy too which is much appreciated. $14 brunch special with a mimosa too read more

After a small gathering in the city and with the spontanaety-inducing buzz of a couple bourbons in our systems, my lady and I decided to hop off the M three (3) stops early after catching some solid Yelp reviews of Skytown last-minute (gotta love an above-ground train--I'm a fiend for that LTE). We walked in and instantly felt the vibe. Dimly lit, with neon signs and a large chalkboard proclaiming the beers on draft and specialty cocktails. A Sav B (sic) for her; an IPA for me. Food-wise, I was dead-set on a burger with bacon. She tried to play coy and mused about a panini, but we knew where her heart was; where it always is. Burger with bacon for her, too. Generous patties--ten ounces, maybe?--loaded with toppings, thick-cut bacon, and nice buns (Brioche? Sure.). Cape Cod chips for me on the side, while she went with a nice salad. And ended up stealing half my chips. Thanks bby. Great watering hole and straightforward, top-notch bar fare. Mentally filing this one away. P.S. They played excellent music--I believe I even caught one Miami Nights 1984 song, which won't matter to anyone who reads this and thus makes it all-the-more spectacular. read more

Cozy bar, wonderful staff, good cocktail and draft rotation. Above all - very welcoming, not pretentious.

Came here a few weeks ago on a Saturday with friends for brunch. I got their black bean tacos, while my friends got other standard menu items off of their menu. All of their offerings are sold as part of a $15 pre-fixe offering, replete with an bloody mary or mimosa or beer, and fries or a salad, which is a pretty decent deal. My tacos were fine, as was my bloody mary. My friends all liked their food as well. Service was a little slow, but since we weren't in a huge rush, it wasn't a big deal for us. We had gone when it had first opened up for the day, so we had the entire place to ourselves for a good hour or so. If you're local to the area, this looks like it'd be a great place to do some work at during the day. read more

Stopped in on a Sunday around noon and got a table immediately. Boyfriend and I had two mimosas and I ordered the chicken and waffles while he had the French toast. The chicken was incredible - really crunchy and juicy. The waffle was thick and delicious. His French toast looked amazing and he took the whole plate down. The service was fast and friendly. Great local spot - can't go wrong. read more

Skytown - French toast and chicken and waffles - New American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Friendly staff, a pioneering location, good food and decent prices make this a great local bar in a section of Bushwick that didn't have many options a few years ago. Located in the site of the former Beauty Bar, the bar makes use of the rear space as a kitchen, from which tasty menu options are crafted. Two restrooms also means little or no waiting, which is great after consuming large amounts of delicious, delicious beer. Keep up the great work! read more

This place is legit. Great vibe and customer service. The Caesar salad is wonderful.

You cannot find a place like this! Day or night, weekdays or weekends.. they ALWAYS serve good food and provide great service. It's always lively and home-y there too! *In case that you are looking at Yelp reviews to see what to get: I highly recommend steak sandwich or chicken panini. read more

Skytown - Good vibe! Always - New American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

A nice little spot Stopped in (drunkenly) for some bites and I was pleasantly surprised with the food. I figured that the place is kind of divey so the food would be subpar, if that. My friend and I ordered the paininis and they were AMAZING!!! Also, the nachos are quite huge for the price and may be the best thing on the menu. The clientele is pretty relaxed and most local folks from the Bushwick area. One the bartenders (a female) did not seem very inviting. At first, I thought that it was me, but another bar patron mentioned the same thing. However, the other male bartender was awesome. I will be back to enjoy drinks and food. read more

Yummy classic burger with fries. I'm picky about my mozzarella sticks and these were GOOD. I also really liked their mezcal Paloma and my boyfriend had their version of a gin mojito called Cool Hand. Overall great service and good food for a really affordable price. Great date spot. read more

The light were dim and inviting, the playlist a typical Bushwick mix of semi-ambient dream house, and the cocktails were strong and refreshing. I ordered the "Cool Hand," a refreshing gin-based drink with mint and cucumber flavors. Upon closing my tab, I complimented the bartender saying, "that was probably one of the best cocktails I've ever had." To my surprise the bartender looked down at me and said, "really? That's the best cocktail you've ever had?" "yeah, I mean it was really refreshing," I replied. He paused, "yeah, I compete [in cocktails?] and it's just OK." I got fucking shamed by some bar snob who sold me a fucking drink for $10 then shamed me for liking it. Dude, you made the drink. read more

Ole, trusty Skytown. A neighborhood bar that carefully straddles the no-man's land between gentry, hipster and dive. The patrons are the most down to earth of any bar in the area, and I find myself regularly meeting and talking to people here. I should add that this place doubles as my dining area, as I don't have a kitchen at home at the moment. The bartenders, at least the ones that are here right now, are friendly and even more so if you are a regular, so spend a second to chit chat with them and remember their names. You'll see some of the same faces coming to sit at a stool, but there are a lot of people just stopping in. Especially since there is a music venue across the street. There are no parents who bring kids here, no dogs here, and the crowd is VERY mixed in terms of age and culture. Food-wise, the menu is slim but consistent, and changes every few months. Right now I wholeheartedly recommend the steak sandwich, the tacos, and the burger (ask for an egg on it!) There's the usual IPA-centric beer menu on tap, but a few other options too, and a selection of cocktails some of which were invented by the staff. Music-wise, *usually* it's rock / metal / punk, but sometimes (unfortunately) it can take a 70's / discoey vibe, and even more unfortunately, though this is getting more rare, there's a hip hop beat (like every other bar seemingly). It depends on the time of night and which bartender is there at the time. But I'll stick around even if generic hip hop is playing. Yes, I go there that often. read more

Love this place. Been coming since I moved to the neighborhood over a year ago. Great food great vibes. Bartenders are amazing. Joe and shaina are my favorite bartenders in Brooklyn read more

Amazing BBQ Wings and burgers! Great vibes! Cool spot to chill with friends! Thumbs up for customer service too. But the music can kinda get too loud. At times, we could barely hear each other out. read more

They were one of the only places open during our trip to New York during covid in February. Food was just ok.Fries were good but our waiter who appeared to be the the one guy running the whole restaurant he was our host and waiter for everyone (it's a small place) seemed to have an attitude that I sent back a chicken sandwich they had stuff on it that wasn't even on the menu. The ambiance was so nice in there though really chill low light place with a real burning candle on the tables read more

This bar has a great vibe, a good cocktail and beer list, and decent food menu but the real gem is Joe the bartender. Made me feel right at home after a long day, it's hard to find a bar where the bartender really welcomes you and Joe does just that! Would recommend coming and sitting right up at the bar with him. read more

Skyrown is the best. The food is off the hook and the service is second to none. My encounter with Joe the bartender was amazing. He's friendly, professional and very attentive. This is a great place and I highly recommend it. Beef Stew. read more

Great burgers! Never too crowded or chaotic. Great spot for a beer and a burger. Good vibes.

This place is great! Their brunch special is a great deal. They also open at 10am, which is cool if you like to get started earlier. Their veggie burger is one of my favorite veggie burgers ever and they have the best fries! read more

Yum! Skytown is a staple in Bushwick. They have a great menu and a full bar. I tried the fried chicken sandwich and the beef stew. Both were ON POINT. The stew is great for a cold, rainy day and the sandwich came with delicious, salty fries. The weekend brunch menu is an added bonus. The iced coffee was good and the waffles are fluffy. read more

Just happen to past this place running errands. Had outdoor sitting and was pretty crowded. But I was hungry so decided to wait anyway. Am glad I did the food was amazing and the rum punch needed a bit more alcohol but was tasty. Definitely will return!!! read more

Upon walking through the door it became clear to me that the hipster infiltration in Bedstuy is real. Looking beyond that annoyance, the bloody mary was delicious with a nice punch of heat and the bartender was very generous. Besides the ironic mustaches as far as my eye can see, I predict that I'll be repeating business here. read more

Skytown is my absolute favourite way to start the weekend in Bushwick. The menu is great, and the vibe is so on point here. Sit at the bar, enjoy a michelada, Bloody Mary or mimosa with your brunch. The staff are super friendly and have great taste in music - 90s RnB one minute and Beatles the next. Plenty of laughs, good food and music. Couldn't ask for more. Was I a few micheladas down when I wrote this? Yessir. read more

Skytown - Saturday evening vibes - New American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Definitely a place for late night food. I had the hanger steak sandwich & my boyfriend had the avocado bacon melt. Both were really good & satisfied our cravings. We came around 11 on a Wednesday & it was packed making it hard to order when we were ready. That was the only downside. Luckily two people were getting up the same time we were looking for seats or else we would've been amongst the people standing around. By the time we finished our food the place cleared out so maybe we came around the peak time. The drink options on the menu board looked good. Everyone seemed to be ordering the drink in a mug but we moreso came for the food. Two Yums up. read more

The staff is so rude and entitled it's laughable. The bartender and barback were drinking booze FROM the fridge while on shift AND had their heads glued to their phones when people were trying to get their attention for refills etc. Where is the manager???? I swear the whole 90 minutes I was there, the female bartender looked up from her phone maybe twice to check on us sitting at the bar. I kept having to call her over and let her know if I needed silverware, a refill, condiments... then once again, I had to get her attention to let her know I needed the check and she throws it in front of me and goes "Here." Hahaha I will not be coming here again and I'll be sure to tell my friends in Bushwick to steer clear. I sincerely hope the manager is reading this and does something about this. read more

Called to see if we could place an order for pick up. Guy responds "I don't see why you can't just come in here and order it." Umm ok. I think I've had just about enough of this better than you, I'm too cool to be giving you even a second of my attention attitude that I get every. single. time. I come in here. I've learned my lesson. I'm sure you're the coolest guy in Brooklyn but if you could just make my egg sandwich sans snark I'd be happy. Thanks! read more
