Drink Lounge & Café — Restaurant in New York

Wow This is a black owned establishment? Drink is far from Friendly!!! Don't step on anyone foot you will get banned from this black owned establishment if the staff is drinking too!! I watch a staff member drink 3+ glasses of wine then she became a false victim of nothing. Monday on the way to the bathroom I accidently stepped on someone's foot and Immediately asked if both women was ok one of the ladies beside her a guest who she was giving Free pours to dancing said eveything was good then the staff gave her a look then she switched & accused me of being aggressive by me asking "Queen are you alright" told me the silent lady (green dress) is staff there she then proceeded to have me removed and the other female beside her w grey sweatpants came outside taunting provoking me when I did nothing. High school bafoonery. This is how the staff treats the female patrons after the "staff" drinks a few glasses of wine. Asking the owner to check the footage to investigate my claims. If she is the owner then Brooklyn Please Do Not Go To Drink! It was not a hospitable environment if you step on someone (staff) foot!!! Also meeting with the community board and sharing my complaint with the district. I can understand if I was in the wrong, the action was not warranted. I do not want other women to be treated as such especially a place supported as a black owned business!! Read previous reviews the same happened to other...

This place is amazing.

The bartender I had was very experienced and creative. They don't have a cocktail menu, and he said, " we know all the classic drinks". I told him to make me something in the same vein as a mojito, which I had tried to order (alas, no fresh mint).

The drink he made was very unique. Rum with a subtle sweet, along with some sort of spice, which I still don't know exactly, although it is very familiar.

I was so impressed with what he gave me that I gave him creative free reign over my drinks that night.

He created such complex and robust drinks that I was thoroughly impressed. The rest of the night was a blast. I kept coming in after I had finished one of his drinks saying, "Make me anything", or "whatever you think is best." Only once was I specific, to which i said, " something Tropical." He surely did deliver.

This place is inspiring. If you are someone that loves to try new things, or at least can go with the flow, ask the bartender to make whatever they think you will like. Obviously. Such a comparison requires a baseline. So order something and...

This is a cute bar on Franklin Ave in BK. I originally came for 95 South on a Tuesday but they were closed. So, I went to this spot two doors down. I could hear the music from outside bumping, but in a good way. I was like okayyy..they outside! They were having Karaoke Tuesdays and it was dope. I walked in and the vibe was nice with a good crowd. A gentleman gave me his seat and I proceeded to order the Dark and Stormy with JB, who turned our to be really chill. The drink was strong and on point. I had a couple more drinks. We sang happy birthday to the DJ. Harmonized with some ladies to old school classics and it was a vibe. Everyone was friendly and chill. The back area/outdoor is covered and cute. I remember coming here back in 2019 and the renos to the back make sense. All in all, I definitely recommend coming here for a good community vibe. I would also host events here. Definitely...
