    Fried Catfish Po'Boy
    Marisa M.

    Amazing fun place! Sundays bingo from 4-6. I won a tshirt! The drinks are excellent and super affordable around $12 for a cocktail, the drink I got was so refreshing and delicious. I also got the catfish po boy which was piled high. The catfish was so good and flavorful. There was slaw and pickles on it as well and the tots had a Cajun seasoning to them. Everything was fried perfectly, i did not feel gross after at all. It was a huge serving and tasted so fresh and delicious. Bartenders and staff are so nice and welcoming. I wish I lived in Brooklyn! Would come here more often. It's pretty chill inside. And there is a pool table in the back and they also have outdoor seating.

    My partner and I were seeing a show in the area and wanted to try a new spot, so after some research, we landed on Heavy Woods! Drinks were decent prices, and food was good. I really enjoyed the crawfish dip and the fried chicken sandwich was solid, too. The tots had a perfect amount of seasoning. Wasn't too packed when we went, and the service was fantastic. We will definitely be back!

    Ventured away from WB to give this place a try. We ended up getting a beer(they ran out of my first choice,) a cocktail, and a few dishes. The Big Easy Tofu Po'Boy was actually better than I expected, and the bread it was served on was really good. The breading on the Fried Chicken Sandwich had an amazing crunch, although the meat could have been a bit juicier. The Jambalaya and Deviled Eggs also hit the spot. It's a bit out of the way for me, so I probably won't be back. But definitely check them out if you're from the area.

    Busy little place with trendy music. Polite and friendly service. Food and drinks were good.

    I thought the food options were not great for vegitarian or vegans. This is clearly not their demographic though so that is okay. I went with a group of 6 and the seating was nice in the back room, but the music was not great. Service was good for a pub type bar, the wings were reportedly not great from my friends. Good little dive bar, not a dinner spot.

    Great food, service, and hidden New York brunch spot. Saw they have a happy hour from 3-8pm M-F. This is longer than most. Their Bloody Mary's and clothing options are worth the try.

    I came here for brunch a few weeks back and ordered a bunch of items to share. The service was friendly but a little slow so it might not be the best spot if you're looking to have a quick meal. Other than that, everything was great! Cajun is a definite comfort food and heavy woods delivered. The flavors were subtle and each dish blends into the next. My favorites from the meal were the jambalaya and crawfish cheese bread.

    OG pre date spot. Shot and beer combo was my jam. They got me through covid with their outdoor grab and go. The staff has always been great.

    Shucks I wanted to give this place five stars but it didn't start so well. The first barista who…read moretook my order was really great. I first ordered a chai latte and he said I could do two different syrups so I got the pumpkin and salted maple, though I was worried about it being too sugary so he suggested I could just do half a pump of each. He asked me what the name of the order would be and I said "Aida" (the phonetic spelling is ah-EE-dah). And then I heard the other barista say something along the lines of, "oh Aida, how about 'Aida' rather not be here", pretty rude if you ask me. And then I ordered the spicy nook sandwich. And when another server called my named to grab it she didn't even knowledge me when I tried to thank her and instead she talked to her coworker while I was right in front of her. The sandwich was really good, so was my chai tea. I really like the pumpkin and salt and maple syrups too. I did like all the options for seating although it was pretty packed. I'd say if you have a big party get there early. By 7pm the whole place was filled. There was a huge majong club that came in and took the whole back area, it was so crammed there were lines for the bathroom. Over all I had a good time. I really like the music too just know it gets very busy in there. The employees I would say were hit or miss. The ones that were great though I really liked. Just seem like the ones who didn't really give attention to customers or were kind of rude seemed like they didn't wanna be there.

Baristas were solid, price was right, everything was grand... I don't know what has happened in the last 6-9 months but I've had to stop coming here full stop. The drink I would always order and am intimately familiar with now tastes fundamentally different--burnt. And not in a dark roast way I would opt into... burnt in a non-intentional way. I don't know if something's up with the espresso machine plumbing that's burning the espresso, if the quality of the roast/beans have changed (doubt it), or if the microbiome of the ice machine is off--but the coffee now always tastes burnt in a way it never did before...and all my friends agree! I sincerely lament that this is the case and I check every 6 weeks or so to see if the espresso machine has been tuned up or something... but once again my cup was not tasty yesterday :/ !! I still go to other variety locations around the city and everything is ok elsewhere. I wasn't going to say anything but I'm just exhausted of not being able to get my reasonably priced, reliably good iced espresso drink when I get off at dekalb so I'm speaking up! For what its worth, I used to be a barista so I'm not just chatting, I sincerely want better for us all!! @Variety please just like get your guy to check the espresso machine or something IDK but summer's around the corner!

Scott Fitzgerald, or William S. Burroughs when I was in here. It made me want to be in a white button down with the sleeves rolled up, tucked into some pinstripe suit pants, with some trendy glasses on while I rip away at a typewriter between puffs of a cigarette. Instead I was in short shorts and a plain white T smh. Shelves of thoroughly used books engulf the walls, smooth jazz plays subtly in the background, as the young patrons of Bushwick have intimate conversations. A lot of passion in here. A lot of freedom. I got an americano because I'm beast, and the espresso was quality. I knew I was in good hands when one of the Bushwick creatives was making it.

I ordered a cappuccino that was good. Nice espresso and froth. I walked around the store and ended up buying a book. Prices are good for the books and pretty decent for the coffee. It can get a little hard to find seating if it's busy as it's a small shop but lots of great books to choose from. Service is okay, not the friendliest. Would come back and buy more books/coffee
