Order a shot and a beer, kill it quick. Order the double pulled pork sandwich, eat it slow. Leave $12 bucks on the counter, and spend the rest of your life dreaming about the experience.

Ok pulled pork is not usually my go to order but you gotta make an exception here because it is amazing! Also a great daytime beer garden.

They serve food, and the #1 cause of under-drinking is hunger, but here, you'll never have to turn down a 6th day beer because of your whiney stomach or low blood-sugar. Plus, jenga and a firepit. Read more

Laid back and affordable dive bar. Try a Frito Pie and an Ice House Burger with Cheese. Beware of their beer/shot combos. Drink and play a game of connect four.

I consider this place to be the last of the best dive bars in the five boroughs. Cheap drinks, good food and a diverse crowd. What else do you need from a bar?

Good dive with solid beer list and above-average food options. Outdoor patio in back is good in summer

Old school vibe with good food and good prices. The menu is like 3 items, burger, hot dog, fries.

Divey, beer and shot friendly interior with a solid burger, but the backyard is where the magic really happens

order up a beer and enjoy your lobster roll with a draught or two in their roomy back patio. if lobster ain't your bag, they have awesome $2.50 pulled pork sammies at the bar.

Note to self: You are a better person for having attending the backyard of this establishment. Note to self: Come back soon!

$15 = two (amazing) pulled pork sandwiches, two beers and two shots of tequila. BBQ sauce is ON. This place is Ameyazing.

If it's two of you, get two pulled pork sandwiches ($5) and fries (I suggest sweet potato $4) and beers. Can't beat it. So good.

Amazing dive bar in Red Hook. They have bacon wrapped hot dogs. Need I say more?

Loved the outdoor garden area, felt relaxed and cosy on a late Sunday Summer evening.

Tasty bar food that doesn't take forever to make after you order. Laid back environment. Great place to grab a drink after work.

Pinball, Big Buck Hunter and they'll even loan you a koozie for your beer. If that's not enough, they have a huge garden in the back. Oh yeah, 2 for $5 pulled pork sammiches. Sold yet?

One of my favourite bars in the City. The food is great and the beer selection is good. Definitely hang out in the backyard!

The pulled pork -- not only great tasting, but the greatest bargain ever. In other words, leaves you more $ to spend on fine whiskeys!
Eva DragoMay 24, 2016
Good, classic dive bar with a big selection of beers (lots of local stuff!).

Food until midnight, and great outdoor patio in the back. What more do you need?

1 for $3, 2 for $5 pulled-pork sandwiches are the draw... Tack-on an order of sweet potato fries and a High Life and you have a winning combo.

They have a Pin Ball machine that seems like it cheats at first but you can get the hang of it after a few balls. (it's Iron Man 2 themed).

Cheap with SUPER epic backyard. The game "quick wit" is ages 10 and up trivia. I got TONS wrong
Nik NadolskiSeptember 7, 2014
Outdoor patio, pulled pork, and sweet potato fries. How can you go wrong.
pinsuda sagooleimJuly 24, 2012
Awesome backyard... there are water misters for god's sake. To top it off - $2 PBR's til 4PM and cheap eats. Legit BK spot.

They know their alcohol, and the food's great! No better "dive" bar around.
