New York Bar Exploration | Dutch Kills, LIC's Hidden Gem ๐
๐ Located in LIC Court Square, just behind the iron gate next to Eagle Lofts. ๐ฐ Around $17 per drink. Iโve always been exploring bars in Manhattan, until one day I decided to check out what LIC had to offer. Dutch Kills is definitely a must-visit dive bar! A friend mentioned that if Dutch Kills were in Manhattan, it would be even more popular. That makes total sense โ itโs truly a hidden gem! ๐ ๐ฟ๐I visited twice within a week. The first time, I went right when they opened in the afternoon. It was quiet and almost empty, perfect for a peaceful drink. The second time was in the evening. I was out with friends, having a great time, and we decided to head to Dutch Kills after crossing just two streets. It was packed, with people standing in the aisles enjoying their drinks. ๐ What surprised me was that within just a week, I saw two different drink menus. The first one was the โSwan Songโ from Winter 2021. The second time, the menu had โBlue Hawaiiโ (which is actually blue) and โBefore I Forgetโ from the Spring 2022 lineup. ๐ธ ๐ฟ๐ Whether youโre looking for a quiet afternoon drink or a lively evening hangout, Dutch Kills has got you covered. Itโs a place that feels like a secret spot, perfect for anyone who loves a good drink and great vibes. ๐ ๐ Dutch Kills #NewYorkBars #LICGems #HiddenGem ๐
