Chelsea RenaudMay 10, 2016This is about as grungy as Park Slope gets, meaning it’s a tiny bit edgy but mostly clean. Come for the open-air space, stay for the beer selection and pinball machines. Bonus: they allow dogs.
Jess NaldoJune 9, 2015Dogs and babies! Great selection of local and artisanal beers. Gets a little chilly inside the outdoor seating, but a nice laid back crowd and friendly bar staff. Kick back and just relax!
Michelle CNovember 25, 2016Nice outdoor area with room for a large party. Mixed specialty drinks are okay - Cider Mill is the best. Biggest downside? No kitchen! Oaxaca Taqueria is across the street though so bring takeout.
Paige CApril 22, 2016Fun bar! Very dog friendly and I love their outdoor space. I wish it was enclosed though. Order food from across the street at Oaxaca Taco!
Quite probably the best spot for a beer in NYC. Amazing rotating taps and a fantastic rotating cask. Great tacos available across the street and dogs a-plenty hanging out. What more do you want?
Craft beer bar from the guys behind Bar Great Harry and like BGH, it's canine-friendly. Play one of the best pinball games of all time: Attack From Mars!
Afi Yellow-DukeOctober 16, 2015this does have a small courtyard, this isn't a beer garden. but it is a bar with a great beer selection, good hot toddies, cool decor, + games. and we got free desserts from someone's bday party! 🍰🍬
Sissi NieJuly 26, 2017Pinball is incredibly hard, pickle juice for the pickle back is much too sweet (more gherkin than dill), but bar has a fun/chill vibe similar to Sweet and Vicious
Kevin NewsumJune 24, 2016Delightfully eccentric craft beer selection, killer soundtrack, pinball and patio seating. What's not to love, really?
Istvan LodorOctober 25, 2014Baby friendly, we bumped into a birthday party with at least 5 families with kids, and it worked out perfectly for us to take a break on a longer trip we were taking with my wife and daughter.
First We FeastAugust 3, 2014This is the place to feel like you're spending time in the fresh air (or as "fresh" as it can be off of a major Brooklyn thoroughfare) without baking in the sun. Read more
One of the best beer lists in New York, a nice outdoor courtyard, and of course dog friendly! Plus you can bring take out here.
Always a great beer list. Always served well. One if my favorite day drinking spots has tons of ambient light coming through the open courtyard.
Trevor RogersAugust 31, 2015We always have a good time here. There is a good amount of outdoor seating and it's never too packed. They also allow dogs which is amazing.
Rebekah HavrillaApril 8, 2013Love the dog friendly atmosphere and the outdoor seating areas. Also have a pretty good selection of craft beers. If I actually lived closer, I would frequent much more often.
Pec AlvaradoSeptember 17, 2015The nicest bartender in Brooklyn. In New York. In the East Coast. The nicest bartender ever. Fantastic place and cheap beers too.
one of the better beer selections around. perfect for sitting outside in the sun on a nice summer day.
A L E XFebruary 4, 2015Love the vibe love the atmosphere. Staff is very friendly. Great selection of brew.
Brew YorkAugust 3, 2011A beautiful outdoor space, a great pinball machine, and most importantly, a carefully selected list of American and European beers. But ignore Thrillist's tip - it's NOT a "beer garden!"
Excellent rotating beer menu. Hop from Mission Dolores to The Owl Farm and back again for all your beer needs.
IrmaZandl ZandlSlantApril 20, 2015Love the vibe here but way too many dogs for my tastes. Saturday afternoon at least 20 dogs all barking and jumping on you.
Joe LearmanJanuary 9, 2017Medieval Madness is the best pinball game of all time! Unfortunately the one here needs a bit of work (left troll doesn't work, and joust is broken), but it's still a blast to destroy a few castles.
This bar here, this is the bar. Have a bloody if it's early. Drink a damned good beer. Feel good about your surroundings. Say hi to Crimson for me.
Bartenders are always super cool and the people are generally well behaved, Compared to a dump like lavender lake
Awesome bar with a great courtyard and tables in the shade. Pretty good beer list too.
Drink LocalAugust 12, 2011Always a great selection of NY beers on tap: Greenport Harbor (Long Island), Southern Tier (Lakewood), Sixpoint (Bklyn), Blue Point (Long Island), Southampton & Ommegang (Cooperstown) are staples
Fazeela MohammedApril 19, 2016It's a great place to brig your dog and your dinner. Love getting a pitcher of wasabi Bloody Mary.
Great yard. Amazing beer. A little loud inside but the outside is always great.
Fred CaminoAugust 11, 2014Cool bar with a nice outdoor space and good beer selection. Watch out for impromptu unsanctioned dog fights though. New Foursquare is not evil, just really really disappointing.
CompassMay 20, 2014Walk through a narrow walkway and enter an old garage to get to Mission Dolores. Inside you’ll find a gorgeous glass ceilings and a pinball machine.
Great beer, great tunes, indoor and outdoor seats, pinball. Pup friendly. I might not leave ever.
chin1taAugust 17, 2016Formerly a tire shop, this beer bar sports a lively vibe fueled by board games & an outdoor patio.
Cretious JMay 11, 2012It may not be kid friendly but it certainly is DOG friendly. Each bartender happily greets my dog and all allows her to drink from a doggie bowl on the bar.
Lali GaliciaMay 31, 2017Bartenders are such sweeties. Try the Grimm Artisanal Ale. -- it will your bff
Julie AvraJune 2, 2017I like all the beers here, and the atmosphere is really nice on a summer night
Great beer selection. Friendly staff and really fun music, especially when Crimson is working.
Village VoiceNovember 7, 2011A pet friendly bar with 20 beers on tap makes this Park Slope favorite oneof our favorite beer bars. Bring ya pooch!
Alex AnderSeptember 4, 2017nice and quiet for spending some quality time with friends (over a few pints).
Julie BasqueAugust 3, 2013Happy Hour is great. Come early and grab a table in the open air area. The pups hang here.
Very dog friendly. Lots of great beer on draft always, plus an amazing wasabi bloody Mary mix on weekends.
Maria VazquezMarch 18, 2016I love it that this bar is dog friendly. Always see the cutest dogs in there ;)
Meg LewisApril 21, 2013Great outdoor area and a unique space for the neighborhood. Seems like a williamsburg-y bar in the slope.
