Grand Army

Cute date spot around the area. Great vibe. They have several independent wine label offerings. I ordered the house bread and was given half a loaf of it (well they do charge $11), it was quite dense but the miso butter is great.

The Grand Army bar in Brooklyn isn’t on the coolest street, so is’s a bit of a local secret. It also feels like a neighborhood bar where people greet each other and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The menu shows that they are playful with fun themes and that they take cocktails seriously. Like "I'd like to buy a vowel, Pat" from the "Game show menu", and a nod to head bartender Patty Dennison. Unfortunately, they failed our test drink, but that was because the bartender was in training. We've actually had it here before, so we know it's usually excellent. They exchanged it, no problem. Instead, we tried a "Black Mesa" with bourbon, rum, roasted corn and sherry. It has a distinctive aroma of corn and sherry, with a clean, round and aromatic taste. The highlight of the evening! This is a bar we have to visit if we are in the neighborhood and you should too! Vid sidan av de coola kvarteren i Brooklyn hittar man baren Grand Army som är lite av en lokal hemlighet. Det känns också som en kvartersbar där många hejar på varandra och stämningen är varm och inbjudande. Menyn visar att de dels är lekfulla med kul teman, dels att de tar cocktails på allvar. Som ”I’d like to buy a vowel, Pat” från ”Game show menu”, och en blinkning till head bartender Patty Dennison. Tyvärr misslyckades de med vår testdrink, men det berodde på att bartendern var under träning. Vi har faktiskt druckit den här förr, så vi vet att den är utmärkt i vanliga fall. Den byts utan knorr. I stället testar vi en ”Black Mesa” med bourbon, rom, rostad majs och sherry. Den har en distinkt doft av majs och sherry, med en ren, rund och aromatisk smak. Kvällens höjdpunkt! Det här är en bar vi måste besöka om vi är i närheten och det borde du också göra!

This is my favorite neighborhood bar & restaurant. The menu has seasonal themed cocktails that are so delicious and perfectly blended. Too many to name just one fav. The staff are super friendly and Patty is so friendly and truly an expert mixologist. The food is delicious, and my wife absolutely adores the tuna tartare. For me it's the oysters (with a great $25/dozen happy hour) that are a staple. All around super cozy (winter they turn on the fireplace), relaxed place that I will always be coming back to.

Great place

Good drinks and oysters. Pretty pricy overall. Extremely loud music- concert level.

I've been meaning to get here for _years_ and was not disappointed in the slightest when I finally did :-) By serendipity the rotating themed menu happened to be riffing on a favorite movie of mine, which was fun, but the impeccable cocktails spoke for themselves. I was there on a rainy Sunday afternoon and the space was less than half full, so I don't know what it feels like at peak times, but I found it to be classy, cozy, and pleasantly chill - and the promise of the next rotating menu will definitely tempt me back.
