- Ray EsperanzateJune 24, 2017Great cocktails ! Just tell the bartender what you're into and they'll make you something special. Also, the sandwiches are awesome. Make sure you ask what the special is.
- Marc SchneebergerNovember 20, 2016Very good spot near MoMA Ps1 to have great cocktails at a quite cheap price for nyc. Ask for the bartenders choice. He is great at choosing drinks.
- Untapped CitiesNovember 11, 2015In a non-descript two floor brick building between a transmission shop and a taxi lot, Dutch Kills is an unmarked gem, save for a neon BAR sign. The vibe has always been deliberately divey and fun. Read more
- Theresa RoldanAugust 25, 2018Beautiful space...apparently packed at night, but it was relatively empty on Sunday @ 5p. Can’t go wrong with their classic cocktails
- Marius WatzMay 30, 2016Much awe, very love. These cocktails are worth the trip to LIC, in a stylish intimate venue that is dark enough for both dates and indiscretion. 3 inch ice cubes and metal straws keep it classy.
- If you ever want an amazing place to drink or even take a date this is your place amazing drinks superb bartenders that creat drinks that fit the needs, taste, likes or want of any guest a must go
- Great vibe, incredibly chill. All of the drinks are too easy to drink. That's the best compliment I can give.
- Ethan JJuly 14, 2016I love this place. Great cocktails and food is amazing. Looks like a dive bar from the outside, but inside is great. Definitely stop by. The Monkey Business cocktail with him and banana liquor rocks.
- Jess SpinosaSeptember 30, 2018Favorite bar in the city. Cool ice. Love every drink I’ve ever tried here, so you really can’t go wrong.
- DoubleDeuceAugust 15, 2014Like any cocktail bar, tell the concoctionist a few of your favorite ingredients and ask for something fresh and in season. Then sip and be merry!
- Brian MooreJune 15, 2016The place is difficult to find due to a purposeful shortage of signage. The happy hour whiskey sour for $8 was excellent.
- Efe SevinJanuary 20, 2017Great cocktail bar! The dimly-lit environment makes it impossible to read the menu for the elderly (cough- me- cough). So carry a flashlight or decide on your order before coming in.
- Ms HeleneNovember 18, 2015Expertly mixed cocktails in speakeasy style booths and bar. Florodonda & Queens Park Swizzle!
- Hands down, my favorite bar in the city. Perfect for a quiet date or low-key drinks with a friend; there's often live music, too! Ask the staff for drink recommendations-they don't disappoint.
- Best cocktails in LIC. Experienced mixologists that always seems to be able to whip up something amazing for your daily mood. Absolutely packed on Saturdays.Try something with ginger. It's amazeballs.
- Great bartenders here that'll fix you a drink with your choice of ingredients. The old time speakeasy feel also makes for a nice date spot. Easily one of the best bars around Astoria/LIC
- One of the best Micheladas I’ve ever had. If you’re there on Fridays or Sunday’s ask for Elijah, he will never do you wrong
- Lauren DJanuary 23, 2017Their cocktails are delicious, and on the off chance you can't fond something on the menu that you want, the bartender will make you something specially catered to your tastes!
- The places front like a speak easy looks some hole in the wall but once there a mixologist will make a personalized drink and if hungry get a menu from the area and order the food will come there
- s vJune 7, 2017(Thrillist tip) Dutch Kills’ classic-leaning cocktails -- not to mention the kickass bar food from M. Wells, and an $8 Monday-through-Thursday happy hour -- make any amount of jostling worthwhile.
- JakeJuly 1, 2016Great cocktails. They are very amenable to you going off menu. Just describe some ideas and voilà! Meat pies are delicious but definitely 1.5 per person if you want a meal.
- Marius WatzNovember 14, 2016Wonderful speakeasy in an odd location, with some of the best cocktails I've had in NYC. Dark and intimate.
- Nicholas BeckJuly 17, 2013There Will Be Blood-style cocktail saloon by trailblazing Milk & Honey a hit, and Boccato went on to open the fun LES tiki bar PKNY guys. Feel of a timeless classic from the moment it opened.
- RamsenFebruary 1, 2015Consistently great drinks and vibe here. Gets busy pretty early, like 7pm on weekends. I'm not gonna recommend a drink cause they're all good depending on what your fave liquor is.
- Ross WSSeptember 5, 2016Dark, wooden rectangular panels enclose one of NYC’s favourite spots for serious drinking. With a tilt to brown spirits and classics, this bar has twice been among the top 50.
- Lane RettigJuly 31, 2015This place is amazing. Great vibe, attentive service, truly amazing cocktails. The dishes aren't bad either. The house made beef jerky with sriracha is a wonderful drink snack.
- Order the African flower! Its kne od the smoothest drinks ive ever tasted. For food, the chicken and also steak sandwiches are very big and hearty. Definitely a step up from usual pub fare.
- Best drinking experience I've ever had in NYC. Excellent drinks, friendly bartending, and absolutely amazing bar food, courtesy of M. Wells. What more do you need?!
- Cozy cocktail bar on the queens side of things. Come earlier on weekends to get a seat. Also nice venue for a romantic date.
- Michelle ChanFebruary 17, 2013LICs hidden speakeasy, unpretentious atmosphere. Can get a little crowded, but try and get a table! Bartenders are awesome as well. If your hungry try their grilled cheese or steak sandwich!
- Certainly the best cocktail bar in Queens. Reasonably priced, too. Come early on a weeknight for a quiet, delicious experience. Come late on the weekend for party town.
- Jc QSeptember 16, 2014Great cocktails and awesome bar & space. If you're not in Queens, Dutch Kills definitely merits the quick trip across the bridge. Hands down my favorite bar in Queens.
- DinaApril 24, 2014Possibly the best cocktails in NY. Understated, unpretentious place. Best is to talk with the bartender and he will make you what you want. Worth the trip to Queens.
- Ray LinMarch 13, 2015If the "bar" sign is unlit, you might walk by and miss this cozy cocktail bar. Great wooden booths make this LIC's worthy sister bar to Black Rabbit.
- Geno C.December 1, 2011More than half empty on a Wed. Night So if it's a pickup spot you're looking for fat chance. Lol. This is a good spot to enjoy a nice glass of bourbon of your fancy. Good stuff on a Wed night.
- Ahmed EnanyMarch 23, 2012Coolest Bar we almost never visited! I'm both happy and sad that it's gaining immense popularity. It's too packed on the weekends. This bar is one of the best though - hands down and up...
- Aislinn SmithAugust 24, 2013Possibly the best NYC bar I've been to. Tell the bartenders what you're in the mood for and they'll whip up the most scrumptious concoction you've ever tasted.
- RoJanuary 28, 2016This is a wonderful bar with really inventive, tasty drinks. I strongly believe they would benefit from a short but solid food menu.
- Uber NYCMarch 21, 2013Dutch Kills is Uber NYC HQ's favorite bar for extremely well-made cocktails after work. A few of our favorites: The Moscow Mule, the michelada, and cider with rye.
- Amanda SchneiderAugust 9, 2014If you like Mezcal and spicy, try a Mezcal Gordon's Breakfast. For a gin cocktail, try the Bee's Knees.
- Kathryn YuAugust 12, 2011Try a Stay Up Later (pisco, mezcal, añejo rum, lemon, and seltzer), a Stepping Razor Blade (rum, lemon, orgeat, and cayenne), or a Bicycle Thief (gin, Campari, grapefruit, lemon, and seltzer).
- Ana PatriciaJune 18, 2016Any fresh lemon mix drink is delicious. Bartenders are quite skilled too, especially when you ask them to make you something off menu.
- My go to neighborhood bar. Its got the vibes of a speakeasy with crafted cocktails to match. Old Fashioned and Sazerac are worth getting.
- Serious EatsMarch 7, 2013Likely the best mixed drinks you'll find in Queens. Feel free to put yourself in the bartender's hands and order off-menu.
- Derek WallbankJuly 3, 2017Amazing cocktails crafted to order. Hint: trust your bartender and go off menu. Just tell them the ballpark of what you like and they'll get you there.
- SamanthaNovember 18, 2012Very relaxed atmosphere with great bartenders. I had a mojito (perfectly fresh mint) and they gave it a fantastic twist because it was my birthday. Delicious.
- Dana PadillaJuly 28, 2013Amazing place. The folks behind the bar make some fantastic creations. Small food menu included beef jerky, mac n cheese and some cheese plates
- Victor AlmonteJanuary 2, 2018Great drinks and excellent service. Tell bartenders what you want, you won’t regret it.
- Nate SAugust 5, 2014Best bar in Queens. Definitely one of the top 10 bars in NYC. If you're in LIC you must stop by for a drink or two.
- Lovely upscale cocktail bar in a "hidden" spot in LIC. order one round for yourself and go with bartenders choice for your next round.
