    Had a company event here. It's a cool space if you bring... everything. We had a BBQ, but rented a tent/furniture and brought our own booze. It's not exactly a private area since it's a park, but it's private enough. It's next to the astroturf area, which is actually not dog friendly, but luckily for us, we only got yelled at toward the end of our event. Didn't actually go inside to check out the museum, but was told there wasn't much to see.

    Excellent museum. 1) Come here if you are around the area. Entrance is by donation. Which is nice. (3 dollar recommended). 2) This home was built by Dutch settlers in 1699. Later, it became the site of the Battle of Brooklyn. (Fun fact: Brooklyn was a loyalist county.) 3) Must visit if you are around the area.

    Small house... We didn't check out the second floor because there was a private event. The first floor is all about the Battle Of Brooklyn. It's basically a mini museum. You won't spend more than 30 mins there. The lady who greeted us were very friendly & polite. $3 suggested donation

    I volunteered in the gardens Summer of 2017 and hope to continue volunteering. This is a historical site and the mission of the Old Stone House is to teach local history and to serve the community with family programs related to arts and cultural events that bring the community together. You can check out their events on their website. They have exhibitions up inside the house. I loved volunteering in the Permaculture gardens, there are actually 10 gardens here maintained by one amazing woman gardener. I would love to work here. It is worth checking out the events and viewing the gardens in the summer. There is also a cool playground with water features for the kids. A fantastic historic place for the community to come together.

    This is such a cute little historic site. It has revolutionary war significance. Kim is the docent here. She's so pleasant and knowledgeable. If you're in the area you should definitely check it out.

    There is not much to look at inside unless you are a history buff and particularly enjoy facts on the American Revolution.

I had absolutely no idea this little gem was available to use for events! They completely sanitized and cleaned every square inch before me and my 13 guests (family mostly!) arrived for my husbands bday dinner. It was immaculate. We felt so comfortable because there was one chef who was cooking our food and one waiter to serve vs a restaurant with lots of people. They have a gorgeous outdoor space so we had drinks there and kept the door open then whole dinner for some air. It was great - food was amazing - and the staff couldn't have been nicer. They also provided all of the rentals and the price was right. It probably cost me a bit less then going to some fancy restaurant and the experience was so much more special. My husband was so surprised and loved every second. P.S. the chef re-created my husbands favorite childhood dish to make the menu special. I love that he took the time to do that!

All of the staff at Ace were kind, welcoming, and incredibly helpful with my questions. The vibe of the hotel was very hipster (coworking in the lobby, DJs at night in the lobby), which made for a unique experience. The rooms, while smaller, were very well appointed and comfortable. The products in the bathroom were lovely, the bed/pillows were very comfortable. If I have the opportunity to stay in Brooklyn again, Ace will be at the top of my list for sure!

A rude woman who did little to correct her mistake. Now I'm wet. I went to the bar to ask if they'd replace the drink. The bartender immediately said "no go ask the manager." Well alrighty! I find the manager and he proceeds to re-explain the situation as "so you want us to buy you a drink? It's not our fault or responsibility." We're adults. I never placed blame. A peculiar thing to say considering I just bought the drink and I'm in your establishment. Felt pretty short tbh. Not sure why I was expecting a different tone. He eventually just offers me a shot. I don't particularly like shots so I kindly slid the remainder of the spilled drink and declined the shot, suggesting that Managment show the next customer a little more grace and respect in tone. Obviously an establishment isn't responsible for spilled drinks and don't have to be kind at all. I get that. But I guess that's what separates a great establishment from a mediocre one just selling drinks and not an experience. Good luck to them.

We planned our wedding from out of state, and this proved to be be a non issue for the staff as they easily set up phone call and zoom sessions with us and our coordinator. We felt the pricing and expectations for what was available and offered to us clear and well explained. This is an amazing space that is essentially a beautiful blank canvas, meaning you can do as much or as little as you wish here. Our day of coordinator helped us secure many vendors to fulfill all the duties of the space, almost all who had worked events here before and had nothing but good things to say. When the day of arrived, we were given free reign of the space and politely checked in with every few hours to see if we needed anything on their end. When the wedding kicked into full gear we had a small unexpected hiccup (outside their control), which they promptly worked to fix and followed up with us after the wedding. I really felt they did an amazing job with customer service and providing a clean, open space to make our dreams a reality. We brought in two food trucks, and two drop off catering to which the space lended well. The house bar staff was great and the whole day truly was a dream. TLDR; This is an amazing space, that really lets you fulfill all of your DIY dreams. It's beautiful enough on its own, but lends well to any additions you want to bring in. The house staff was great and we would definitely recommend to friends and family!

The decor is modern, simple, and feels romantic. I was fortunate to work with Abby (and Emory for part of the day of) and she was more than accommodating to both me and my couple. Abby was quick to reply to all of my questions and other requests. On top of that, she's super friendly and has a great attitude. We used a couple of their preferred vendors, as well as outside vendors and Abby and her team worked with all flawlessly.

My two personal recommendations are: Indigo Bloom. A summery drink thats fruity, vibrant, and topped with I believe mint and flowers. Reverie. It's such as elegant drink. It's velvety, with cocoa nib spice notes and a creamy head. Taste each layer individual then together it was amazing. Beyond the drinks, the service made the night exceptional. Sebestian and James were attentive and professional, making sure every detail in each drink were right. It was exciting watching them create these amazing cocktails. Satyam, honestly is a natural talent. He is passionate about hospitality and making guests feel welcome. He has an energy that makes the bar experience feel personal and special.

Happy hour thankfully runs everyday, as opposed to the usual weekday only HH; I believe it's from 4-7PM. There were two bartenders who were both attentive and really nice. I tried a mojito as well as the bee's knees and was happy with both drinks, found them to be quite strong. Not an extensive food menu, but I saw some light bites and charcuterie boards being ordered. A bit of a random location away from the more restaurant-packed blocks, but thoroughly enjoyed stopping in!
