If you want to go bar hopping in Bushwick, here are some recommendations:
Kings County Brewers Collective (KCBC) – This is the first brewery to open in the neighborhood after the last of the old-time breweries closed in 1976. It is a fun place to spend an afternoon or evening. There is no food but you can bring your own.
Address: 381 Troutman St | Opening Hours: Mon-Thu/Fri 5:00 pm – 11:00 pm/12:00 am, Sat/Sun 12:00 pm – 12:00 am/9:00 pm
Pearl’s Social & Billy Club – A cozy neighborhood bar with a friendly atmosphere. The long wooden bar, warm lighting, brick walls and old-time knick-knacks are the perfect setting to spend a night out with friends.
Address: 40 St Nicholas Ave, Brooklyn | Opening Hours: Tue-Fri 2:00 pm – 4:00 am, Sat-Sun 12:00 pm – 4:00 am
The Rookery – Another popular local bar in Bushwick. You can choose to sit at the indoor bar which is located in a former industrial space or at the outdoor garden. The menu consists of draft beer, wines and cocktails and British-West Indian inspired pub food.
Address: 425 Troutman St, Brooklyn | Opening Hours: Mon-Fri 12:00 pm – 3:00 am, Sat-Sun 11:00 am – 3:00 am
We spent a day in Brooklyn on our last NYC visit, and I wish we had more time! It just feels so unique, not unlike anywhere else in New York, and so much less hustle. Mister Dips sounds like exactly what you’d need after an afternoon at some of these breweries!
We’ve heard about Brooklyn so many great things, we had to check it ourselves and we fell in love! You have to go back for a proper visit!
