  1. I love Lantern Hall. I found it through the glory of Yelp and it's so great I want to marry it. Sorry, be married in it. Which I'm doing later this year.

    They have 14 beers on tap which change basically whenever one gets kicked. I try several each time I go and I'm always impressed. Last time I went, they had an amazing beer that kind of tasted like bacon and a sour from Denmark that was subtle and super drinkable. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and love to educate about the beers, breweries, and processes.

    The food menu is pretty small, but I haven't been disappointed yet. I've tried the burger (perfectly seasoned and cooked), the fried chicken sandwich (crisp and moist in all the right places), the calamari (hand breaded and cooked so perfectly it almost melts in your mouth), and the tots (crunchy exterior, soft potatoey interior).

    Bonus: N64 on the projector

  2. During a recent visit to NY, we were looking for somewhere casual where we could grab a couple beers and we came across this place through my friend's suggestion. They said it was a new spot and I thought why not! I totally enjoyed my time there. I loved everything about the atmosphere and decor – the open space, exposed bricks, wood walls and tables, graffiti. They also had games, entertainment, and a great variety of beers!

    Unfortunately, we had someplace else to be so we didn't order any food, but everything looked delicious and everybody looked like they were enjoying their food. The bartenders were extremely kind and super welcoming. When I'm in town again, I definitely have to come back to try out more beers and THE FOOD. Definitely ordering the chicken burger and tater tots next time.

  3. Awesome for deal for $11, a well done made burger and healthy portion of tots. The menu has a great array of craft beers, with fantastic locals including Other Half and LIC Beer Project. A huge, long space with large Jenga and an N64 in the back.

    Have yet to go when it's really moving, but a great addition to the area for an Happy Hour burger and beer with the front garage door open.

  4. This by far my favorite new spot in Brooklyn. The staff really puts in a lot of effort and you feel welcome. Upon coming in, I was well greeted and I really dug the "hang out and chill" vibe. Extremely pocket friendly and the week day deals were just icing on the cake. The owner Jeff and his father, always try to really take care of the customers and you can tell its that real old school "mom and pop" bar.  This ones easy, 5 stars from me guys!

  5. Entering an empty public space feels like a transgression.

    Here is a beer hall, designed for mass merriment, but devoid of people. The last customer files out just a few minutes after we arrive on a Saturday evening.

    I continue to be mystified by the traffic flow in Bushwick. A perfectly nice, new bar just above the Morgan L subway entrance is but the latest example. The previous night I went to Yours Sincerely, a draft cocktail place much further out than this place. It was packed. Perhaps because New York magazine hadn't written a blog post about the restaurant, the hordes didn't show up. Or perhaps things really get going later in the evening.

    Whatever the case, the beer selection in here is varied enough to find something interesting, if not revolutionary. The bar snacks are greasy and heavy in an appealing way. My friend ate some fried pickles while I worked my way through a set of tatter tots. I was disappointed by the advertised shuffleboard table, which is not full size and has rather flimsy pucks.

    I see on their Facebook page a commitment to innovation, including some N64 games, parties and a chicken sandwich and beer special. While the crowds aren't there now, with a bit of luck and the right promotion, I'm sure they will stop by.

  6. Awesome new craft beer bar located right next to the Morgan L in Bushwick. They have the largest variety of beers in this area, as well as a full liquor bar and very tasty food menu. Several interesting beers that you won't find anywhere else. My favorite is the Simple Sour, which is light with nice balanced citrus flavors. The fried pickles are an amazing vegan option-perfectly seasoned and excellent with any of the beers.

    The space is large and minimalist, yet cozy. High ceilings. Candles in mason jars. Awesome bartenders-Nick and Taylor were both lovely and very knowledgeable of the menu. All credit cards accepted.

  7. I was visiting NYC and looking for a cool place in Brooklyn after browsing the art galleries in east Williamsburg. This little gem had almost no sign, nor lights, and is located on a desolate industrial street. Although it was a few feet from the subway station, the street was quiet except for this beer hall.

    Walking in, you see long wooden benches and local art work hanging on the exposed brick. The shelves above the bar are filled with mini kegs, a cool touch and fitting for their concept.

    My boyfriend and I sat down in the back and then we ordered the chicken sandwich from a bartender named john. John was incredibly well informed about the beers but unfortunately I wasn't planning on drinking that day. The food took about 7 minutes to arrive which was acceptable as the place was half filled (this was a Thursday at 6pm). The fried chicken sandwich was amazing. Perfectly crisp on a potato roll. A bit expensive for a chicken sandwich ($9) but this is NYC. Also, the burger was the same price which is strange.

    We stayed for a while and it was a chill atmosphere. Because there is no wait service, we weren't pressured with the check to turn over the table.

    The ambiance was industrial/manufacturing with hip hop playing from the ceiling. Very cool place. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone.

  8. I still like this bar as a bar. But as far as the burger, which I previously said was god damn near perfection, I rescind that. They must have gotten a new cook. In the winter I was eating there several days a week and would have more if I didn't want to become a fat ass. But the past 4-5 times I've been I might as well have just eaten a charcoal briquette. The burger looks smaller now and that is because it is so overcooked its borderline inedible now. I kept going back thinking it was an off night, but it isn't. So disappointing, because it used to be so great. their burger and beer special used to seem like a fantastic deal worth planning for. Now the place has kind of fallen off my map even though they are 20 paces from my subway stop, and it's more like 'eh…I guess if you are really hungry you at least get the beer to make the stop worthy'. In other words, where Santa used to leave you the Barbie Dream House, he now just leaves a lump of coal. story of my life.
