We had SUCH a great night at Starr Bar recently. We were celebrating a friend's bachelorette, and the bartenders were so friendly, super accommodating and overall great. The place wasn't super packed and if you're fully vaccinated, you weren't required to wear a mask (although they weren't checking for proof of vaccination, FYI). The drinks were moderately priced and they have a lot of great beer options. This is a great place to jam out to your favorite songs with your friends, haha!

Cute place. Smalll plates. Good crispy fries. Nice ambiance. Good location lot of stuff around here to see and do. Staff is nice. Delivered ice cold cauliflower and comped it.

A large, open space with all the wooden elements of a cozy European pub await you at this remarkable bar right off the Jefferson stop (apparently they call it Jeff-Town but no local has yet to confirm this claim). In addition to a spacious bar there's a larger booth sectioned off with high dividers, which would be a cozy intimate spot for a good group of friends among the otherwise spacious areas (too large for a date though). The place is connected with social justice organizations. Besides the fact that it's a great cause, the connection has seemed to attracted really genuine bartenders. It's the type of community that's hard to find, especially in New York. Large open windows at the front. To the back, a smaller curtained underpass to even more seating. That area doubles for dancing an larger events, which are pretty frequent. Oh did I mention great happy hour prices? Whether your the shameless Bushwick​ hipster who goes for a beer and a shot or overly sophisticated ordering Old Fashions, you'll find all options discounted!

Came in a bit ago to kill time before meeting up with a friend for a food festival. Didn't even realize I was in the completely wrong neighborhood until she was 90 percent of the way there and I was chilling with my book and beer in Bushwick. But I thankfully only had to backtrack 3 train stops. But didn't take away from having a pleasant time here! They have a decent happy hour of $5 drafts/wells, $5 Narragansett and a shot, $7 Margs/Old Fashioneds, $1 off wines until 7pm every day. Decent selection of beers on draft and friendly bartender. I went with a Left handed milk stout and took in my surroundings. They serve some food (which I didn't try because of food festival later) but it seems like kind of a wide variety with quesadillas, rice/beans, croquettes, moussaka . . . intermeshed with traditional bar food - burgers, french fries, etc. They also do shows here. They had a stage and sound system. Someone was there setting up for a variety show later that night. Very chill.

a glass of watermelon, lime, and jalapeno

My favorite bar in Bushwick and they recently invented all these new cocktails that are to die for. My fav is the ho-mojito

See all

This place was really interesting! When I found out all the cocktails were on tap, I was a bit…read moreskeptical. What do you mean you're not going to mix my cocktail right in front of me? However, I was quickly proven wrong. Not only was the service topnotch, but the drinks were surprisingly delicious and refreshing. There's a ton of options which is also surprising considering the tap only format. Upon further reflection of how tiny the bar is, it makes sense why they would go this route. It would be challenging for one person let alone two to be behind that bar shaking and stirring. I also heard there's a back area with more seating but we didn't explore much further than the front bar stool seating. Seems like a cool spot for happy hour or late night drinks and I would definitely return!

Came here for happy hour as our dinner was in the area. The happy hour deal is great! Old…read morefashions/Manhattan/daiquiri/margarita for $8 even on weekends feels unheard of in the area. We were lucky to grab 2 seats at the bar as the rest of the seating actually seemed a bit cramped and uninviting. They advertise a heated back patio but I don't think the heat was on and no one was there, which is a bummer. Regardless, the theme is nice with everything attributable to their "laboratory" ambience. Everything is served in beakers or similar glasses. It can get a bit crowded sitting at the bar as that's where everyone orders drinks but otherwise this was quite enjoyable. Will definitely keep on the list for HH.
