    Seating is plentiful, the drink list features a fair share of low-alcohol brews, and traditional Czech food is available to soak up some of that booze. What is there not to love about this bierhaus? Read more

    Perfect outdoor spot to come to with a group of friends in the summer especially if you appreciate $14 Happy hour pitchers & $4 drafts! Did I mention great Czech food that goes with your drinks?

    This is the ideal spot to hang out with friends, especially during the warmer weather. It has a terrace where you can enjoy a great selection of beer and traditional American food!

    This is a great place to have a friendly gathering. With Czech specialties in food and a great variety of beers you'll need nothing more. The garden is divided to smoking and non-smoking areas.

    The OG beer garden that's always worth a trip to Astoria. Grab one of their plentiful outdoor tables and kick back with beers and great Czech food (get the fried cheese!) for the perfect summer day.

    One of the if not the best beer garden in the NYC area. Sit outside if available seats and best during a soccer match with outdoor tvs.

    One, if the if not the best bier garden in the NYC area. Grab a seat outside to watch the soccer games on the outdoor TVs. The garden is open all year and has heat lamps!

    Beer Gardens are great, especially this one in Astoria. NYC's oldest beer garden. It is unpretentious and has a very relaxing atmosphere. Nice beer menu and good food.

    The Czech food is amazing. Succulent roast pork, goulash, potato pancakes and dumplings. Also, of course, a solid selection of European and American beers with great outdoor seating.

    Love their beers but hate the dust. Outdoor setting gets very hot in the summer. Get you sunblock. Food and drinks are standard. It's a gem in the neighborhood, the place to get drunk during lunch

    Delightful way to spend a summer afternoon. Perfect for convivial daytime imbibing with friends. Watch your step when navigating the sprawling garden: small children often run underfoot.

    Great beers (like Pilsner Urquell), Czech food, and live music. Fun place for groups b/c it's very casual and there's a ton of space and friendly people.

    Must have ID. Go through the door in the bar to enter not the fancy double doors on the outside of the garden walls. Brand new bathrooms which its a saving grace with all the well priced beer!

    up to 160. Catering classics like pigs in a blankets, is served buffet style, and of course, there’s lots and lots of beer. Food and drink packages start at $65 a person.

    There are many imitators, but this is the one true, traditional beer garden in New York. Its beer selection isn't huge, and mainly skews to imports, naturally, but the atmosphere is one of a kind.

    Amazingly huge (and famous) back patio area that gets seriously packed. Get there early to settle down with a table before they're all taken.

    This is a great place but DO NOT bring in outside food. They're insane. Made my friend finish a few last gulps of her soda in her purse. Let me slide tonight with some water in my bottle. Lighten up!!

    Ignore all the noise you hear in these tips. Bottom line: best beer garden in Astoria. Good beer and good crowd. It gets crowded and loud so get your kids out by 6-ish. Still a great time.
