I already knew it was going to be a great place just by the other reviews, but I wasn't sure if it was going to be snooty or anything. Super chill, but very popular! My friend and I got lucky and got seats at the bar, but I could totally come here solo which is why I like it a lot! Beer is crafted and good. It's a tad bit bright but looks like people come to work, read a book or hang. The staff was really nice and I like how simple the menu is. I don't think I'd eat any snacks here, but I can try it out when I come back. Such a good find & highly reco!

Within 5 minutes, one of the employees comes outside to ask if I want to buy a drink. However, I'm almost finished with my lunch and answer no thanks, only for the employee to say in a huff, "Well, next time you should buy something if you want to use our seating." While I understand that as your business, you have the right to do this, it really just comes off as rude and condescending, turning what would've been a nonexistent interaction into a negative one that has completely soured my attitude toward this establishment. Considering that this establishment had roughly a dozen tables and 24 seats with only 4 seats or so occupied when I was around and I wasn't interfering with business on a slow afternoon, there shouldn't have been a problem with simply letting bygones be bygones. If this is what New Yorkers consider hospitality and acceptable behavior, no wonder people from most other states consider the population to be rude.

We couldn't find much in the immediate area we were in since it was pretty industrial. We stumbled upon The Owl Farm and gave it a try. A lot of places in the area either have food and no drinks or drinks and no food. The Owl Farm was a great bar with a cozy vibe and awesome bartender. Nico was tending bar and it definitely looked like he knew what he was doing. We ordered a couple of cosmos and they did not dissapoint. He made them perfectly and for a Wednesday night, there was a nice crowd there. The place was clean and had a laid back ambiance. There were pinball machines in the back and the fireplace made it feel all that more cozy on this rainy, cold night. If I lived closer, I'd definitely be here a lot more often but if you're in the area, definitely check this spot out!

The interior has been given a nice refurb, but still has a dark, homey, welcoming bar vibe. The backyard still open and ample and cool. A few round tables in the interior of the back are set up for crokinole which looked like a potentially fun bar game--I had to look it up but my fiancé is a fan. The beer list is impeccable--not surprising after finding out the proprietors hail from beer meccas Three's Brewing and Gold Star. Cocktails were excellent as well, with slight twists on classics--my Negroni with Punt e mez vermouth with added an interesting kick. Only had a quick couple here--we had been out watching a Knicks playoff victory, and a couple more were all we could afford! But can't wait to come back and enjoy the great beer and drinks, soak up the fine atmosphere and play us some

But the kitchen was backed up a lot that food was taking too long to come out so we left still hungry. To put it in perspective, we had a reservation at 6pm.

At 7:15p we asked if the kitchen even started on our main dishes and unfortunately they did not so we canceled our order because we had to leave soon for concert.

Hated us from moment one-not sure why. Drive 2+ hours to get here-beer seemed great. Would rather poke my eyes out than ever return. Woman was despicable. Hated her job. Hated the world. Is this why I spend $14 for a beer? To feel her vibe?! No thanks. Her mixed drink tasted like water and I don't usually care. Came for my birthday. Worst place I can imagine. Horrible. Good beer but it wasn't worth this. Really regretted this choice and will never return. Emailed owners and not surprisingly, no response to either email. You don't want this place. Try Finback or Queue for sure.
