Connolly's Bar

This place is like stepping into another world, a world filled with nice people.  With bartenders who are happy to see you and with pina coladas so delicious that you can almost feel the sand beneath your feet and hear the sounds of the ocean.  OK, you probably do since the beach is a couple of blocks away, but what I'm trying to get at is that this place definitely does NOT feel anything like the chaos of the city.  I love this place.  I love to just stare at all the old photographs on the walls of Rockaway people back in the day.  I almost want to move to Rockaway just because I never feel like leaving this bar every time I stop by.  I can't rave enough about this spot.  I just hope the city crowd doesn't end up spoiling this awesome bar.

Classic Rockaway.

Only open in the summer.

Hurricane's comin', boys. The rain is here. The wind is here. The rest is still to come. Jamaica Bay is a view to end all views. The Rockaways are greedy for punishment by Mama Nature. And they wouldn't have it any other way.

Judge not the Natty, for the Natty never judges you.
