    1. Pretty good date spot if you're waiting for your table at Frankies or Prime Meats to open up. 2. Open until at least 2am every night, so perfect place to come back to?

    Love me the corner table and a Kolsch. Hungry? South Brooklyn Pizza (across the street) is open 'til 4am Thur-Sat if you wanna be a hero and fetch a couple slices for the table.

    What the cozy watering hole lacks in table space, it makes up for in inventive cocktail mixes, from the Girl Scout martini to name-your-own four dollar happy hour specials.

    Nick makes some of the best Margaritas you've ever tasted. Jenn can make anything and always has a great drink suggestion.

    I like to say "What happens at Minibar stays in Carroll Gardens." That pretty much tells you what you need to know!

    Ask for cherry in your drink. It's not the typical maraschino dyed crap, trust me.

    They only have basic stuff, nothing too fancy. So "whatever you have" will be useful!

    Leave Nick a good tip because he is a great bartender and if your taste in music doesn't suck he will let you DJ.

    Great dirty martinis but ask for 5 olives.

    Love this place, other than the rude Englishman who's here too often thinking he's not bothering anybody by smoking right outside the window. #asshole
