Nicole FormicaDecember 23, 2014Great cocktail bar tucked away in Brooklyn. Back patio is awesome in the summer! Be sure to bring your paper money, they are cash only.- Serious EatsDecember 10, 2013With cocktails, beer, and $1 oysters daily until 7pm, the Narrows is a Bushwick favorite that also features a welcoming backyard and a handful of late-night snacks.
Kimmie OhhAugust 3, 2020Get the “Word” cocktail - scotch, jalapeño tequila, maraschino, green chartreuse, lime & bitters. Cute backyard for outdoor seating!
Tavonna MillerMarch 1, 2015Retro, romantic lounge bar with an extensive shelf of not-your-average/everyday liquors & aperitifs! Perfect place to discover tasty cocktails & new liquors! HIGHLY recommend!- Alex MillerJuly 26, 2015Perfect for a weekday night. Get a cocktail or a beer and share a heaping bowl of fries with your friends. The narrow bar corridor can get crowded during peak hours.
Staff PicksSeptember 4, 2014Try the Oyster happy hour at The Narrows. They offer a cocktail menu, and $1 oysters until 7pm. The Que Bonita drink mixes jalapeño infused tequila with lime, cucumber and a dash of simple syrup. Read more
Keli AnayaJune 10, 2016Perfect bar for a variety of occasions! Romantic, just friends, alone, and the patio is SO NICE!
Olessya KuzJanuary 26, 2015Awesome cocktails. Great atmosphere. Cute garden in the back. But terrible oysters (served in salt water brine = extremely salty + got me out of commission for the whole night).
Philipp NassJanuary 31, 2018Unique and cozy spot for creative cocktails and craft beer in Brooklyn. The patio is so beautiful on a summer night out.
Tiffany HuiJune 3, 2016*cash only! they can make any drink, so don't be afraid to go off the menu if you have something you really like
The Corcoran GroupApril 11, 2011Come to this art deco inspired lounge for the original and seasonal cocktails served by the amazing and sexy Lee. Try a Caufield’s Dream, or a Babushka.- Jessica LokajMarch 23, 2014backyard with rocking chairs, pretzels with beer fondue, Caulfield's Dream an Babyshka Cocktail, art-deco speakeasy, no picklebacks!
Lee LawrenceJune 19, 2015Gotta say, ballsy move to make "It's narrow!" the concept for your bar. Was getting bumped every 5 seconds in there. AWESOME patio though.
Gabriella CatoochJuly 31, 2017Cute place, but NO MORE $1 oysters :(. Nice place to stop by for a cocktail with a cute patio
Isaac ShabotSeptember 28, 2014Great bar and drinks. Try and get a seat in the outdoor backyard. Doesn't feel like brooklyn in here
First We FeastAugust 3, 2014It doesn't get much better than a pint of Fuller's ESB and some $1 oysters (daily until 7pm) in the sun. Read more
Akanksha ChauhanSeptember 26, 2018Amazing Negronis. Kinda difficult to spot from the street. Lovely Art Deco vibe.
Amanda BoekelheideJuly 17, 2011Watch out for the crazy guy who lives upstairs and has no qualms about tossing water without warning or entreaty for quiet on people chatting outside. Owner is great, venue charming.- SukiAugust 6, 2017Great cocktails, friendly staff and really nice, cozy backyard with lights strung up.
Dollar oysters until 7pm. Get a side (read: enormous bowl) of shoelace fries.
Fanny PicardNovember 5, 2012The Babyshka cocktail is so good :) large choice of beers too! Very Nice spot!
Shali NguyenOctober 10, 2015Cocktails and good beers on tap. Go around the corner pass the bar for booth seats!
CasieJuly 4, 2013The Babushka is the best drink I've ever had and I'm old and have had a ton of drinks.
Order a "Last Word" from Sean. Citrus, herbs, gin: amazing.
Bastian BeyerMay 14, 2013Great cocktail bar! Feels like in a film noir. And try the pretzels with beer fondue. No joke
Marc SchneebergerJune 30, 2016Beautiful place in Brooklyn with horrible cocktails and more horrible bartenders. We were three last saturday and thought the same thing being the most horrible thing the arrogant waitress.
Well crafted, reasonably priced cocktails, amazing back yard, beer & shot specials if you're slumming it.
If Frank Lloyd Wright and Tom Collins had a child, it would be The Narrows.
One of my favorite haunts the garden in the back is a delight in warmer weather
Quail egg, bacon jam and lemon aioli tea sandwich. Lucky Lindy. Perfect early-evening snackola,
- Overpriced spot where you can rub your junk on 12 folks backs. Although I would bring a visitor here.
Robyn RubensteinApril 17, 2011Omg - try the Word. Jalapeno infused tequila with chartreuse. Amazing cocktails, deco atmosphere speakeasy.
Caulfield's Dream -- I'd pay tripple the price for it in the East Village.
Chenge TsapayiMarch 1, 2013Babushka was AMAZEBALLS!!! That drink is awesome! Very small and quiet though
Jessie RichardsonSeptember 25, 2011Nice little art-deco speakeasy style bar. Great music. Perfect for a date.
