Bushwick Country Club — Restaurant in New York

In search of a place to bring a large group of friends for my boyfriend's 30th birthday bash, I stumbled upon this place. It is the very definition of a hipster dive bar but I don't consider that a bad thing. When we first got there it was very crowded but the crowd thinned out a lot towards 1:00am. My Bud Light swigging friends had a hard time finding suitable beverages at first but they eventually got the hang of it. The Sweet Tea Vodka slushies were deliciously addictive and especially helpful since it was pretty warm inside. One of us took a chance on the spiked hot cider and it was a bitter, noxious brew. All of the drink prices were very reasonable. You've got to love a backyard mini golf course with a windmill made out of PBR cans.

This is an awful establishment. If you are a female/queer person do not go here. The owner John is always there harassing any woman that goes in. Buying younger women drinks to get them to talk to him. He goes behind the bar and starts “working” so he can use his power as an Owner to creep on girls and force them into interacting with him.

Female bartenders who have worked there have had said it makes them and the person on the opposite side extremely uncomfortable. This kind of behavior should NOT be allowed to continue. No one should use their power to take advantage of anyone....

It was extremely crowded, but that was probably our fault for going on a Saturday night. Also, the mini-golf definitely looks bigger from the photos on the website, but again, probably my fault - I should have known it was tiny based on the area that the bar is located in (not exactly a ton of room in that neighborhood). The bar selection isn't bad, the beer is cold, they give you cheese poofs at the bar (if you ask nicely), and their pickles are ridiculous (like, they are so strong that they will act like an espresso shot and wake you right up). It was definitely an...
