While this bar makes solid drinks, what keeps us coming back is the free popcorn covered in Old Bay. We can't help ourselves! While it's a decent walk from the Barclays Center, it's worth the trip.

The name pretty much says it all - if there is such thing as a high-end dive bar, this is it. High Dive’s main assets are free popcorn, a solid rotating beer selection, and a back patio.

It's taken a few years for the popcorn and whiskey sloshes to turn this place into a real dive. But, plenty of pluses: good drinks, staff, jukebox, patio. Love the "Greatest Show..." sign in back.

When I stay at my home away from home Hotel on Degraw and forth this is my home away from home bar I give it five stars it's in walking distance and everyone is always pleasant

Looking for a quiet place on a Saturday afternoon, this is the place to be. Popcorn and friendly bartenders.

It's a dive bar, but the greatest dive bar. Craft beer, free popcorn, savory pies for $6, wonderful staff that can still make a mean cocktail. It's my go to (and I'm here way too often).

A backyard patio, 90s rock posters, and fully functional (and free) vintage popcorn machine are among the local tap room’s most beloved quirks.

Great summer place. Happy hour goes 'til 8pm, so grab a few pints and a couple bowls of free popcorn topped w/ Old Bay, and sit outside and enjoy.

Free popcorn, craft beer, and friendly bartenders that turn The Smiths off and the whole bar yells at them but they don’t really care and you don’t either.

A clean, open "dive bar" with a really nice draft selection, good drinks and a patio in back.

Nice backyard and a good beer list. Grab some free popcorn (with Old Bay!) and enjoy your afternoon.

The new Green Flash IPA on draft is the brewery's best one yet, forgoes the trend of overwhelming hops for a succulent, surprisingly floral brew with a perfectly balanced body. Go get it

Do not only just play the Jenga, play it with the Truth/Dare option. For Mega Jenga: combine the 2-3 different Jenga sets together!
