Lavender Lake Bar

Really open feeling bar. Some good beers and great fries. Great place for a birthday party or other big group.

Very cool warehouse-turn-bar on the canals in Brooklyn. Great local spot, very casual and plenty of space to sit and socialize.

I love this bar. Both inside and outside are great places to have a drink and unwind. The music is never too loud (though it's usually very good) and the lighting is always perfect for the time of day. Literally one of my favorite bars. Food is surprisingly good too. Wish I could say more nice things about it. Hmm. What else... Oh! The bathrooms are clean! And the waitstaff is nice! Seriously this place is awesome. Worth a trip from outside the neighborhood.

Painfully hip but mostly worth it. Bartenders oscillate between warm and uninterested but happy hour prices can make up for it. Outside of happy hour you’re looking at $14 cocktails so beware. The food is choice: the calamari and house cut fries with jalapeño ketchup were nice. The backyard is a great spot, particularly if you have a group.

Great happy hour place! Especially on Monday's when they have happy hour all day. The food is delicious and so are the cocktails (although they are stupidly, "new-Brooklyn" priced). Stick to the happy hour wine & beers for a reasonably priced evening on their gorgeous back patio. Staff isn't exactly warm or friendly but the atmosphere and quality of food & drink makes up for it.
