Great ambiance with good selection of drinks!
Stopped in for an after-dinner drink. The Christmas decorations were fantastic in an otherwise classically beautiful pub ambiance. They had a fair range of beers as well as some wines. Service was friendly and enjoyable. Lovely place to spend an evening.
Great little bar on a terrific packed street. There's so much to do in this area but make sure you stop in to the custom house for a drink. The bartenders are fast and friendly and pour generous drinks.
TVs inside to watch the game on is a definite plus in my book.
Custom House is a lovely neighborhood bar and restaurant on Montague Street in Brooklyn Heights.
I only went here to drink with friends after a sumptuous dinner in a nearby restaurant.
There were few diners and people at the bar when we came in. The place is considerably quiet. The over all ambiance is cozy, especially the leather couch by the fire place in front of the entrance door.
The sports fanatics sits at the bar since they are showing live sports events on TV.
The place is pristine with baroque tiles on the floor.
The staff are friendly and attentive. They checked on us every now and then to see if we needed anything.
For me, it's a great place to chill after work day or to come just for a nightcap.
The beer here in NYC is spendy. In addition, the mussels were a little fishy and unflavorful. Overall, unimpressed with the custom house.
Came here with two girlfriends after a night of square dancing. They had worked up an appetite and wanted food at almost midnight. We stopped in at a cute wine bar and was told the kitchen was closed but the custom house would be open for another hour serving food.
We walked a few blocks over and indeed, the custom house was open. There was a large party in the front of the restaurant chowing down on food. We snagged the couch right by the entrance in front of the non working fireplace (which seems to have a gas fire that wasn't lit) and my friends perused the food while I scoped out the place.
In the back, there were tons of people drinking, eating and perhaps glancing at the game on the few tv screens placed throughout the space. One of the first things I noticed was the incredibly high ceilings, birdcage lamps and exposed brick. The interior / ambiance is pretty nice at this spot.
It took a while for the server who handed my friends their menus to come back. In fact, one of my girlfriends had to get up to go find him to place her order. One of them got the french onion soup and the other got the burger with fries and a beer.
They both polished off their meals so I would assume it was decent enough. At least it did the job in an area where late night food doesn't seem to be a thing. The area of course is quiet, safe and again – not a lot of noisy bars since this a residential / family oriented neighborhood… although there were a few obnoxious drunks staggering out of the custom house while we were there.
I only come here for the drinks & I usually sit at the bar. I've had a few of the appetizers but I've never had a full meal here.
I've had the spinach dip, hummus w/pita bread, buffalo wings and mozzarella sticks. All were decent.
Love the ambiance in there. 3 large flat screen televisions are over the bar. They're cool with changing the channel to what ever sports event you want to watch as long as no one is watching. Not too loud. Nice and dim. The tables have candles. Very romantic with the right company.
The staff was attentive and friendly as well. 4th drink is free!
I frequent Custom House. I'll definitely be back.
Small gem in brooklyn.
I came here on break one day and they are pretty quick. I was able to get in there, order, eat, and have conversation in less than an hour including my walk there.
I ordered their cheeseburger and it was AMAZING! One of the juiciest burgers Ive had. It was cooked perfectly and I had no complaints. Also, their fries are very good as well. I enjoyed my feel to the fullest extent.
The waitress was also extremely friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend and come back here often. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is because their menu isn't very long and for picky eaters it might be hard to find any beside burgers.
I came here with some friends. We sat outside on a very nice day. I ordered a Cobb salad and my friends had a sandwich and macaroni and cheese. They liked the food and my salad was good. The service was very good as well. I really liked that they did not rush us out after eating. We stayed at the table and ordered rounds of drinks but they did not pressure us in any way. Overall, would return and sit outside on a nice day.
