Time Out New YorkAugust 7, 2013The fan-favorite cheeseburger at this South Slope saloon comes with a mountainous side of hand-cut fries and a Scotch kicker. It’s more than a few notches above your average fast-food order. (RC) Read more
DrewskiNovember 6, 2016Cool spot. Pool table, dart board, shuffleboard, and some board games in addition to six TVs, plus some outdoor space. Get there early for football to guarantee a good seat.
William JohnsonJuly 31, 2016Do the burger, the burger, then the burger. Diversify after. Chili is great, so are the fries. Shuffleboard and board games are available but the place gets crazy at night so at your own peril...- 1 of 2 best burgers in Brooklyn, and totally awesome cobb salad. Share both for the perfect balance in a really homey bar for great sports watching..
Triple bacon cheeseburger is $15 but on Tuesday it’s half off. Hold the fries, too carby, but they’re tasty. Good whiskey selection too, they comped one because they were missing the first two.
Theresa RoldanJanuary 15, 2016Single burger with everything is one of the most delicious burgers I've ever had in the city. Good food, beer, and selection of games! What more can you ask for?!
Olivia SlutskyOctober 20, 2018Perfectly lively, but not too crowded. Good bar food and games (e.g. Jenga, connect four, sorry, skeeball etc)
Claire J SongJune 1, 2015Double Cheeseburger, $12 The house style is a relentlessly drippy double fashioned from two well-browned three-ounce patties fully accessorized with lettuce, tomato, American cheese, pickle, onion.
If you get a burger, sub the fries with a side salad for $1. It's a no bullshit salad and you'll negate the 7 beers you plan on downing.
The Corcoran GroupMay 24, 2011Laid back and open bar with beer, board games, shuffle board, pool and delicious Hamburgers, Irish Nachos and deep fried Mac & Cheese.
Danny CossonOctober 31, 2015Fun, chill bar in south slope. Good vibe. The booth tables are great for a group of 3 - 7 friends. The fries are quite good.
JeffreyAugust 31, 2014Extremely loud but still the best bar burger in town. Take it the way it comes: two square patties, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, onion, mustard, mayo, and no ketchup.- HectorSeptember 28, 2015A local favorite, with board games and backyard garden. Great beer selection, pair it with some spicy wings.
Need a table - standing room is narrow and in the way of everyone else. Food is decent bar food and they play a wide variety of sports which can make it a nice alternative to the usual sports bar.
Great spot for catching live sports with a relaxed vibe (at least by BK standards)
Cole KennedyDecember 8, 2017Definitely mediocre as a sports bar, but definitely above average as a place to get a beer and a burger. (The burger is what Wendy’s wishes it were.)
Kaleigh RogersOctober 11, 2014The pool on Friday nights is tournament style. Don't come here if you want to play billiards with your friends. You have to play the winner.
Varun ShettyJune 6, 2014Shuffleboard, lots of flat screens for games, comfy booths, a decent draft selection and a pretty tasty burger.
Forget the fact that they have a huge beer selection. Forget the fact that their burger is one of NYC's best (the food in general rocks). The staff kicks ass. 'Nuff said.
Clyde Kelly J.November 29, 2014Great late night spot. Friendly bartenders, board games, pool. A fun alternative to Smiths.
Byron BrewerJanuary 16, 2012The cheeseburger is serious stuff. Easily the best I've had in Brooklyn. Get the of roasted garlic aioli dipping sauce for your fries.- DrinkopolyNovember 11, 2011Billiards, shuffle board, great food and excellent drinks! What else could you want in a neighborhood bar? Nothing else besides Drinkopoly!
Deborah Au-YeungApril 27, 2013I've seen god. He's a double square patty of meat topped with tomatoes, pickles, lettuce and garlic aioli on a sesame seed bun.
Spork ThrowerSeptember 6, 2014Great burgers that come with a huge amount of tasty fries. Great happy hour!
daniel martynetzJanuary 13, 2013This place might have the best bar food I have ever encountered. Damn good beer list too. Well played, Dram Shop.
Shuffleboard...darts...pool...drinkopoly...and Doc's Pear Cider on draft! Right around the corner from my new apartment too =] Order fried mac and cheese!!
Dan MilanoOctober 7, 2012A photo of where the infamous dram shop burger was, before it was quickly devoured. This burger is HARD to photograph, good luck.
Franncis PJanuary 2, 2017Games, food is great get the dram special, its a little of everything, awesome!- Frank DieboldNovember 7, 2014Tough to get a seat in front of the relevant TV, but if you can, great spot to watch football
- Andrew YochumFebruary 24, 2013Awesome whiskey & beer selection. Fries and burgers rock. And get in on the shuffleboard action.
Don't skip the burger here--it's truly amazing. Note though: the default is double patties, so ask for a single if you want to keep your girlish figure.
Adrian SchaeferJuly 27, 2013Amazing!! Food and drinks were great!! Friendly bartenders and servers ;) Great weekend in Park Slope!
alissa sMarch 23, 2014the burger... the chipotle mayo... the punch... i need all of these things in my life on a regular basis.
Sometimes the bartenders are great. Other times it’s like pulling teeth to get any service despite not being busy.
If I ever owned a bar, it would be like this place. Full of great beer, food and board games!
Great food, awesome on sports nights friendly staff and a pool table! Yes please!
this place has a little something 4 everyone (pool, games, etc., a gabillion tv's playing all types of sports, sweet 80's and 90's tunes.) beer is cheap, burgers are great. not your typical sports bar
Peter ToAugust 7, 2014If you're looking for an expensive big mac, get the burger. They, also, give you a ton of fries.
Violetta FugaAugust 24, 2013The best place , best burgers!! 100% recommend !! Very friendly staff;) love
My favorite wings! Might be my favorite burger, too...top 5 for sure.
Jonathan LunaOctober 10, 2011Great chill spot really good vibe with great food.. awesome for first dates.. oj just chilling with friends
The burger is always great, but when they're on, it's one of the city's best.
