bkbee

Scene:

Divey.

Why Go:

The backyard is PIMP. Shoot some pool, shoot the shit, have a great night with your friends.

I'd have to say that their backyard is my favorite thing about this bar. I could sit there for hours.

Rockers, mostly.

Every time I've been here it's seemed like there were more guys than girls. Even if the ratio is even I feel like testosterone is emanating from the floorboards.

@ Lulu's on Tue Apr 10
Greenpoint

bkbee

Scene:

This place has had so many identities in the last 10 years. For now, the high ceilings and loft space are pretty bare bones. It's not a bad atmosphere, but sometimes it feels a little bare bones.

Why Go:

Um, free pizza with your drink? I tend to come here at the end of the night, when my belly is grumbling...but they also play host to some pretty awesome rock shows.

Bests:

FREE PIZZA! Happy hour is pretty good, too. Dinner and a beer for $4!

Date Spot: No

I am frugal, but going to Lulu's on a date would seem a little cheap.

Crowd: Hipster, Downtown
