56 5th Ave (btwn Bergen St. & St. Marks Pl.), Brooklyn, NY
American Restaurant · North Slope · 110 tips and reviews
Men's Health Mag: If you need a place to bring a friend, this is it. This hardware store turned bar serves up food that is organic, free-range, and local.
Men's Health Mag: This place is huge—15,000 feet, former warehouse huge. It’s so cavernous that it becomes like a dozen private bars. Just watch out for couples getting…a little too cozy on the couches.
181 Orchard St (btw Stanton & Rivington), New York, NY
Bar · Lower East Side · 70 tips and reviews
Men's Health Mag: This place’s happy hour laughs in the face of the word “hour”—it runs from 4 to 9 p.m. Beers are $3 (and PBR is $2), one of the best bargains in New York City. Can’t beat that.
Men's Health Mag: This place is a foodie haven—100 plus wines, grilled calf liver, all that jazz. The best part though? Kitchen’s open until 2 a.m., and those guys make a mean blue-cheese burger.
388 Union Ave (btwn Ainslie & Powers St), Brooklyn, NY
Bar · East Williamsburg · 321 tips and reviews
Men's Health Mag: Kickball with a beer seem a bit sacreligious? Get over it. This bar lets you embrace your inner child—it’s stocked with vintage arcade games—while allowing you to keep a hand in your adult life.
359 Metropolitan Ave (at Havemeyer St), Brooklyn, NY
Beer Garden · Williamsburg · 177 tips and reviews
Men's Health Mag: This joint specializes in obscure and rare beers. Hansje Drinker Triple? Zum Uerige Dusseldorf Alt? Hard to pronounce, let alone find the fridge. Luckily, these barkeeps know their beer.
Men's Health Mag: Nearly every New York City bar serves this local joint’s brew, but swing by the place itself. From 6 p.m. to 11 p.m., pay $4 for a wooden nickel and redeem it for any beer the place brews.
