    I remember hearing about this spot years ago. Their initial beer menu wasn't too impressive when they first opened. Glad I gave them a second chance. Came back again recently and they now always have really unique and fantastic craft beers on tap. I tried a Destihl Blueberry Crumble desert sour and was wooowed. Also tried a coconut ipa and surprisingly liked that as well. Caught up with a friend in between Yelp events next door. He ordered a burger and I tried their fries which were decent. The onion rings here are gluten free. That was interesting. Beers are a dollar off at $7 during happy hour and oysters are $1.50 until 7pm. Their frickles (fried pickles) I ordered also on another occasion a few weeks ago and those were amazing and I'm a fried pickle snob.

    Great experience, start to finish. Food was great and customer service was 10/10. We will definitely be back next time we have an event at Barclay's.

    Mozzarella sticks

    So exciting and fun to go to a fully gluten free (minus the beers) dive! They even had gf beer, a lager and an IPA, which were both great! We got the mozzarella sticks, which were a little hard in the middle (no cheese pull!) but otherwise great. The nachos were a little sub-par for me--mozzarella feels like a weird cheese choice and they got super soggy quickly--but I would definitely come back and try more. The vibe is fun and service was great too. Will come back for more gf snacks in the future!

    The Sampler Platter! Fully gluten free fried heaven

    Epic spot! They have so many fun options and it's 100% gluten free. How great is that? We got the pepperoni pizza, chicken tenders, sampler platter, and mac n cheese. Plus a bunch of awesome gluten free beer and ciders. Goals

    Gluten free food from the same kitchen as wild as well as a happy hour with $1.50 oysters?! My god sign me up!! Sam's first night he did admirably. Juggling all sorts of chaos he performed well under pressure. Glad to come here and find a new neighborhood gem.

    Menu and Ebbs Kolsh beer

    I enjoyed my visit to the Beer Garage experience. This location is an intimate place for a date night or just a celebration for yourself. The place feels like you are in a garage, drinking and talking with your friends, watching a movie or sports game. The calamari was delicious, and the hot chicken wings were very hot. My mouth and stomach were very happy. The Ebbs Kölsch craft beer was smooth on the tongue and not bitter. The bartender and server were friendly and knowledgeable about craft beer, which matches our taste. I love the vibe and food. Please note that this location is small both inside and out, so please keep that in mind when visiting this bar.

    Oysters

    This is a spot we are always returning to! Lovely happy hour beers and oysters. We tried the 16oz steak for 2 and LOVED IT. This truly is a Park Slope gem. Our bartender is a wonderful and kind man. His service is absolutely superb. The vibe in here is sporty and also chill, keep it on your radar! Will be back time and time again!!!

    CHICKEN NACHOS

    Ok I really love this spot... have loved it every time. But the nachos are wack... this was completely inedible. Basically a brick of cheese with some cherry tomatoes, soggy "chips" and teeny tiny little fragments of chicken. Honestly, I didn't eat it, which is fine.. except that it was $18. Usually, I would say something to the server, but we went during the championship march madness games and the poor guy was doing his best, but in a tough situation. They were busy and out of everything - buffalo wings, ipas, etc. so I felt bad. Truthfully we have been to this spot 5 times and I've liked it, but I the food is incredibly overpriced for what it is. I think it's the fact that it's attached to "wild" the restaurant. The thing is, when people go to a restaurant they expect to pay $18 for nachos, but when you go to a dive bar, you're not planning to leave spending $100. Honestly, I hate to say it because I love to have a drink here, but I'm kinda turned off after this...

    My mother was invited to a Yelp event here, so she brought me with her; it was radical! I loved the Mango Habanero Wings and the Calamari, both were well seasoned, wings were not too spicy and complemented the beer. I love beer and this bar did not disappoint; service was excellent, fast and welcoming. The bar is small but it's a good place to enjoy a refreshing drink and watch sports.

Very moody, low lit place with a huge collection of vinyl along the bar wall. I had the Allison Road, made with gin, dry vermouth, apricot liqueur, and orange bitters, described as "A smooth and aromatic gin cocktail that walks the line between floral and fruity." I also had the Junmai Spritz, recommended by the bartender, made with umami/saki, strawberry, ginger, and seltzer. Described as, "Crisp and refreshing, with subtle umami from sake, bright strawberry fruit, and hint of ginger spice." They also have drinks featuring rye, whiskey, rum, mezcal. Flavors of jalapeño, honey, orange, vanilla and chocolate. They have a HUGE beer list. Most of the menu is Japanese inspired. The bartender was kind, attentive, and very laid back. Other than a couple patrons here and there, I was the only person in there on a Wednesday afternoon. They say it gets busier on weekends. They also have a DJ on weekends, usually playing R&B and hiphop. They played mostly jazz when I was in, and it was very relaxing. I came in for the vibes, but this would be great for a workspace as well.

    Overall rating: 4.8…read more Super cute spot near the Brooklyn museum. I already knew it was going to be a great place just by the other reviews, but I wasn't sure if it was going to be snooty or anything. Super chill, but very popular! My friend and I got lucky and got seats at the bar, but I could totally come here solo which is why I like it a lot! Beer is crafted and good. It's a tad bit bright but looks like people come to work, read a book or hang. The staff was really nice and I like how simple the menu is. I don't think I'd eat any snacks here, but I can try it out when I come back. Such a good find & highly reco!

Within 5 minutes, one of the employees comes outside to ask if I want to buy a drink. However, I'm almost finished with my lunch and answer no thanks, only for the employee to say in a huff, "Well, next time you should buy something if you want to use our seating." While I understand that as your business, you have the right to do this, it really just comes off as rude and condescending, turning what would've been a nonexistent interaction into a negative one that has completely soured my attitude toward this establishment. Considering that this establishment had roughly a dozen tables and 24 seats with only 4 seats or so occupied when I was around and I wasn't interfering with business on a slow afternoon, there shouldn't have been a problem with simply letting bygones be bygones. If this is what New Yorkers consider hospitality and acceptable behavior, no wonder people from most other states consider the population to be rude.
