Black Rabbit

Stopped in for a quick bite and pint on a sweltering July day. Glad I did. It's cool (both temperately and in attitude), has some solid beer options and the food - while limited - was served quickly and was delicious.

It's an interesting space with high backed booths that have swinging doors (!!) and a backroom for larger groups as well as a garden. If you live nearby it's a good stop to add to your regular rounds!

The last time I came here was actually extremely depressing. It was for the pre-Valentine's Day Smiths-themed speed dating event (billed as "you could meet somebody who really loves you"), which ended up being cancelled due to the unfortunate female:male ratio of, no joke, 15:1.

The bartender took pity on all the pathetic females that showed up and gave everyone a free drink, although I politely declined and decided it was best I took my sorry self home.

Maybe next year they'll figure out a way to even out the ratio a bit!

One of the best bars in Greenpoint. Amazing atmosphere and fantastic decor. Games to play, nice staff, and good selection of drinks.
