This British-style brew house specializes in understated ambiance and game day-friendly dishes, from handmade chips with salsa to chicken finger platters.

Great rotating draft beer selection. Take a seat at the bar or grab a booth in the back if you've got a group.

Excellent classical style decoration, simple but elegant. The huge old bar table amazed me. Various cold beer on tap. Bartender was polite and friendly.

Draft beer selection is surprisingly good. The menu seems to rotate almost weekly, and selections are always solid. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly - but Pete is by far the best!

Good food: burgers, burritos, fish-n-chips. Great beer selections and just 2 blocks down from Clark Street station.

I love the regular selection of UK beers. Bombardier, Fullers ESB, and Old Speckled Hen are always on draft. Now if they could only add Theakston Old Peculier!

Good, cold beer. Chill vibe. Classics on the radio. If you walked across the Brooklyn or Manhattan bridge and want to relax, this is for you.

Just love coming to this place after work for a after work beverage. Bartenders are very beer knowledgeable and give great service.

This place is phenomenal. Make sure to sit at the bar, chat with the manager, and have one of the artisan beers on draught.

Great beer list with many good and unusual choices. The sour IPA was amazing.

Seriously, the best nachos in NYC. They're topped with chili, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, jalapeños, and magic

Pete is an amazing bartender. Knowledgeable and friendly. Works 5 days a week. It feels like Cheers in here.

Skip the regular menu and ask for the specials. If there is schnitzel as a special, get that for the love of god!

Excellent spot to warm up after a winter walk along the brooklyn bridge park.

They have chile habanero hot sauce...not that Tabasco that most restaurants profess as the hottest thing in God's creation
Paul KatcherAugust 15, 2013
Get the excellent fish tacos and ask for a bottle of chili habernero sauce. Go lightly, though.

Spinach penne is the way to go. Check the specials board. And order a Leffe Blonde. And since I live around the corner, I'll be at the bar.

The chorizo beef burger might be the best burger I have had

Bartender is great. I usually stop by after work on Fridays with a friend or two. But its the type of neighborhood place you can have a casual drink alone too.
Mac IngramApril 29, 2013
Don't try to watch a hilarious YouTube video with an amazing dog. It will not be appreciated.
David BrahlerFebruary 25, 2016
Get the fried pickles, skip the jalapeño poppers, stay for beers
Lilit MarcusNovember 17, 2013
I just feel like a $25 credit card minimum is a little steep.
Nick RadfordMarch 9, 2018
Got to try the draft beers, great selection.
Cory SimpsonDecember 6, 2012
The bartender looks like Anderson cooper :) very nice man and makes great drinks.

Geary's porter is a solid porter on tap nearly year round! If you're not in the mood for a full pint you can order a half pint.
Brad GerickSeptember 29, 2012
Legitimately the slowest/most aloof service I have ever had. Regardless of it being Saturday night.
PaddyNovember 26, 2013
Decent enough place located close to Grimaldi's. Bartender was a bit ditzy, he forgot drinks and poured the wrong drinks but altogether a decent atmosphere.

Worst music selection of any bar anywhere any time. Bartender thinks he's being eclectic. He's really just being dull.
