    Calypso and jack sparrow
    Lena S.

    Stumbled upon this place while looking for a cocktail bar in flushing and we were so glad we found this little gem! It was on a rooftop of a hotel, the place isn't big but the drinks were amazing. The bartender sure knows how to make a good cocktail. We ordered a couple of drinks off menu with tequila and the bartender made one with apricot and another with spicy mango and both were both amazing. We came for one drink and stayed for a few more because we wanted to try other cocktails on the menu. We got jack-sparrow, Eduardo Villanveu and Calypso, all were amazing. This is literally the best cocktail bar I've been to in flushing. The drinks here are better than The Attic. I'll be back!!

    NY Beer Garden - Korean escargot

    Beer good Good good…read morePeople good And the allow dogs. What more can you ask for? Really though, there's a wide selection of beer both local, to micro brewers, to foreign. The food is Korean centric pub food. From fries, to burgers, nachos, pasta, bossam, etc. And the people are all so nice. We always come with our dog and they always bring water for him, and we go enough so they recognize us when we come in. Of course though we stay in the outdoor dining area, which is covered during the colder months. But even then, they turn in heating for us when we are out there while every other patron are dining inside.

    I like going here mainly because of how late it stays open. I also like how spacious it is inside…read moreand apparently there's board games? But I cannot confirm that. The food itself is pretty good. I liked the pasta and the pork belly dish. The fried were ok. I also tried the nachos and really liked the cheese for it's subtle taste however I was not a fan of the rest of it. For the price the portions are pretty small and not filling. Warning it can be pretty loud as I had to yell to talk to my friends. My main con and suggestion for improvement is the tables and chairs. The chairs are really small so it might not be comfortable for most. Also, our table was very wobbly so we moved to another one and that one ended up being wobbly too. I'm hoping they can change them as it will help the comfort of the guests. On a good note, I liked the service! The waitress was nice but I believe there was a busser who was attentive and respectful towards us!

    I could have swore I wrote a review for this place when it first opened. Coming here in the summer…read moreis by far the best view unless your looking at the Z hotel, which looks like poop hole! There's so many levels to this location. When its cold outside I recommend the seating in the corner, its a little room off to the side. They have outlets here as well as games to play. Unfortunately for last night's visit they just had scrabble which I totally crushed my friend in, when he reads this he is gonna laugh. The 5 or so times I been to this location there has always been totally good service. I believe one of my drinks last night was given for free, the bill didn't make sense. I did notice my server clicked on the 20% tab, I didn't mind I would have clicked that anyway. Sometimes I am too nice to people because most would have said something. :: bathroom alert:: Very clean bathroom. Use the first one on the bottom floor. The ada compliant bathrooms are very big, I appreciate that. The bathrooms upstairs have unisex hand washing. I just appreciate There's elevators so that elderly, mobility issues and people in wheel chairs can enjoy the view. In the winter upstairs does have a tent around it. The area can seem sus at night time. Take a cab home or walk with a friend is my tip. The food is pretty good. The nachos were just ok, I could have used more seasoning. The pretzel was really good as well. They used to have tacos on their menu I don't know what happened. Their fries are pretty good too. I'm not sure if they still do the pizza, they did when they first opened.

    I'm not in LIC often but on this occasion I was invited to an event at The Greats of Craft, and I'm…read moreglad I was! I likely would never have gone to this place on my own, especially given the very industrial surroundings in the area. Honestly, from a few blocks away I would have no idea that such a nice restaurant was located here. From the outside you'd almost think this was a bar/lounge but inside the space is beautiful with plenty of sunlight flooding in and plenty of seating. Yes, they do sell beer but it's really a family spot. There's even a bar off to one side that runs along about half of the first level. This is where I sat as I waited for my friends to show up for their event. I ordered a Pumpkin Spice Latte and it was great! Not super spicy or sweet which is cool. The staff was friendly and a lot of people who came in were on a first name basis with the staff, which is always a great sign. It shows trust and repeat business from locals and that gives them big points in my book. The event was in an upstairs space which is huge and features its own bar off to one side and plenty of seating both inside and outside. I got to try a couple different dishes including their fresh baked pretzel, which was soft and tasty. I also tried their chicken fingers, which were fresh and well cooked. The french fries were also fresh, crisp and tasted good! I enjoyed my visit to The Greats of Craft. I won't be going out of my way to go there but if I'm in the area I'd happily visit again.

    Cuisine: 9 Service: 8…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 9 Overall: 9 Just a really solid local bar to enjoy some good food while watching a game. When they first remodeled from a specialty sandwich shop to a craft beer pub, I was quite disappointed. Now I can't get my favorite chopped cheese or sriracha egg sandwich in the neighborhood anymore. However, I come to realize that having a dependable spot for an excellent burger is a pretty nice too. They do a great classic smash burger with a crispy crust and juicy beef. The toppings are always fresh and the bread is extremely fluffy. While the brioche bun is delicious, I may have a slight preference for the sesame seed bun of the Stack Mac. You really can't go wrong with any of their burger offerings. Obviously, a pub needs some tasty fried foods to go with their nice selection of craft beers. Thankfully, they do. The tater tots and onion rings are both really fantastic. Only thing currently still needs a bit of work is their chicken wings. Not bad for roasted wings, but I wish they were fried. During playoff season, I have come watched games while enjoying their offerings. It's never too busy, which makes it perfect for me. This little craft bar is definitely a hidden gem and I'm happy by me.

    We stopped in on an early Monday evening, and there were just a few other customers. The space is…read moreon the smaller side, and our server was friendly enough. We each ordered a draft beer (nice perk with $2 off during happy hour), along with the classic double smash, plus a side of fries and onion rings. The burger was quite greasy, but otherwise enjoyable. It had good flavor and nice crispy edges, though I wish there was more of the house burger sauce, I could barely taste it, and that's usually what gives a burger its signature. The fries and onion rings were both excellent, fried to a perfect crisp. Overall, I'd come back and try more items on the menu.

Make this a second or last stop before you go home. The sourdough pretzels were really good, definitely worth the $6.50. The guac and chip didnt have enough salt, felt like there was no love put into that. The service was on point tho, very attuned with thier customers. I appreciate they are ADA compliant. The seats are kinda awkward and circular, wasn't a fan. When you pull them out to sit you have to make sure you don't drop the seat. Other than that had a great time with good company. They have charging ports under the bar.

The service was fast the bartenders were friendly and honestly it was. One to the best location I've been to near the waters edge. The location was clean beautiful heated and the food was also pretty good we had sour dough pretzels avocado with tortilla chips. The ambiance was cool chilled relaxed had a great conversation with one of the bartenders about tattoos so I definitely and highly recommend if you live near the waters edge or your visiting I highly recommend. So please if you are near go and check it out you will not regret it they don't have many beer chooses compared to the lic warehouse of the greats and crafts but the options they have are pretty damn goood
