The bartender, Alex, was friendly and a recent(ish) transplant from Massachusetts so we hit it off nicely. The bar is clean and cozy, and the happy hour specials are great! Highly recommend!
Tørst is a must-visit! We had to change our reservation last minute due to traffic, and the staff couldn't have been more accommodating and friendly.<br><br>The extensive beer selection is incredible, and the cocktails are just as great. We were blown away by the food. Everything was amazing and came out to the table super fast.<br><br>Great vibes, delicious drinks, and top-tier service. We'll definitely be back!
I had heard about Torst as being a neighborhood wine bar with great food to order before arriving in Brooklyn, so I knew it had to be one of the first places I visit!<br><br>*Spoiler Alert*...<br>I was not disappointed AT ALL!!<br><br>First impressions: it's a bit of a compact space, but there's also plenty of tables/seating to choose from....although it does fill in fast!!<br>We came relatively early around 4pm, so we were able to take advantage of some of their Happy Hour prices, including:<br>$14 Fried Chicken Sandwich<br>$10 Cocktails, including the Frozen Espresso Martini<br>I also got the Smash Burger and the Yuzu Sake, which weren't included in the Happy Hour.<br><br>You order your food & drinks at the bar, but they bring the food out to wherever you're sitting once it's ready.<br>As for the cocktails, they were both great!! The Frozen Espresso Martini was very creatively presented and I enjoyed the look and taste of it.<br>The Yuzu Sake was strong and great quality!<br><br>For the food, both the Fried Chicken Sandwich and Smash Burger were delicious!!<br>The Fried Chicken Sandwich especially tasted so unique and creative with the sauce on it, but I also just really loved the solid burger and could tell it had excellent quality.<br><br>Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Torst, and I highly recommend stopping by to grab some of their food and drinks!
One of my favorite bars over the past few years. Their beers are always top notch and there's something for everyone - even those non-beer drinking friends. The atmosphere is chill and more like a neighborhood bar but the aesthetics and details like the gorgeous glassware gives this place a more upscale feel.<br><br>There's a backroom you can reserve for private events and the food is fantastic. Great staff as well!
Great craft beer and bar food. Complex beer list and a really good happy hour deal. Great fried chicken sandwich and fried pickles.
This is one of my favorite bars in Greenpoint. Insane tap list. Such a cool vibe inside.<br><br>Can sometimes be a bit too crowded, since the inside is a tad small, but on off-hours there is tons of space. Always fun to get seasonal Maine Beer Company on tap. Lovely spot.<br><br>Bartenders are very knowledgeable. Also, they have much more than just beer, at the delight of my partner. Will keep coming back!
Great selection of beer and wines and the service is really good. Nice atmosphere and aesthetic.
I had an amaziiing experience hosting a private event at Tørst, the biggest gathering I've ever organized for about 40 of my friends!!! The vibe was amazing, the staff was incredibly kind and friendly, and they served our catering promptly and smoothly. The whole event was a success, and I’m so grateful we chose to have it there! Oh, and their fried chicken sliders catering was sooo good!! Still thinking about it now hahahah 😆 Would visit again and highly recommend hosting your private events there!!
Got to try both the Alchemist Dark and Light side by side — absolute treat. Beautifully balanced beers in one of the best-designed bar spaces I’ve seen. The vibe here is dialed: clean, modern, but still warm and welcoming. Service was great, picked up a couple of Alchemist stickers, and left already thinking about the next visit. If you care about beer, this place should be on your list.
Loved the beers that they havr to offer here. They were featuring a Mexican brewery called Hércules. The bites are also pretty good.<br><br>5/5
Amazing selection of beer, some are rare find. Staffs have great knowledge with their menu and very helpful when you can make your own decisions. Love the atmosphere, food also tastes very good.
I finally tried this Danish Bar. They have a long draft line and rare bottled beers. They have some good cocktails. They have a limited food menu. The happy hour is good. The place is sleek and modern. I liked the different colored classes hanging from the ceiling.
The place is full of European Vibe!! The decoction is super simple but elegant. They have 21 variety of taps and a lot of Great wine and beer. I just love the dim light and music with good taste of drinks. Bartender in there is super friendly and make you feel comfortable. I just feel like love it.
Ate here with friends for my birthday and it was incredible. The staff was so friendly. We sat in doors and I felt perfectly safe because of their Covid prevention policies.<br><br>We had the burger, the fried chicken and the pastrami and all of them were cooked to perfection and each tasted just as good as the other. The beer nuts were not great, but other than that, amazing. I will be returning.
