It's got such an old feel yet is clean, well kept and run by gentleman behind the bar. It was busy but didn't feel overcrowded. I loved the modern jukebox- I put on old school N.O.R.E and the bar was jumpin! I especially appreciated that they had heineken zeros, another pleasant surprise! I would definitely bring friends here to catch up. Great safe neighborhood bar!

Gotta love confusing first timers when we walk into a real working laundromat for a drink. You make…read moreyour way to the back where you go behind a door that looks like a washing machine. The space is quaint and intimate, but feels like the perfect spot to kill some time when you're doing laundry or just on a fun little date. They serve beers and cider; no liquor, although you can get a shot soju for $4. I had a mango and peach cider from Downeast that was quite delicious. Most of their drinks were $10 each, which was reasonable. This is a great spot when you want some entertainment as you can play their pinball machines ($1 each play), skeeball, or any of the free boardgames they have. Be sure to bring cash, but there is a machine that gives you a change of coins.

The bartender is super friendly and the pinball is fun! They serve pretty good drinks beers. I believe they have a pinball league in conjunction with their sister bar which is pretty cool. Also they have skee ball and you can redeem your tickets for little cute prizes. Overall, a pretty cool place if you are in the area.

When I first moved to New York nine years ago, one of the first things I did was Google "most…read moreunique bars in NYC," and this spot popped up in a Time Out article. What's wild is if you go back to that same list now, most of those places are gone..but this one's still here, still doing its thing. And it's not just surviving off novelty either. It actually feels like Brooklyn. very Bushwick, very laid-back but still a little chaotic in the best way. It can get pretty packed, so don't expect a ton of space, but honestly that doesn't take away from the experience. It's always a good time, and the drinks never miss. If you're looking for a unique but low-pressure spot for a casual date or just somewhere to talk shit with a friend..this is a solid pick. They've got board games, but the real highlight for me? The adult coloring pages lol. Also, don't get offended by the subtle insults around the bar like saying "do math to figure out the tip"... lol I promise it's not that deep.

Walked into Black Rabbit on a Saturday night around 8pm to grab cocktails ahead of meeting friends…read moreout later in the evening. The cocktail menu included a selection of martinis, including a pickle martini which I knew I had to get and happy I did so as it was perfectly made. The ambiance was dark and mysterious with various black rabbit themed decorations of art and taxidermy lining the rustic and wooden walls. The bartender was very friendly and service was quick and smooth. The pickle martini itself was delicious and I could've ordered several if I wasn't pacing myself for a longer night ahead. The bar food menu included a selection of cheeses as well as mini burgers which I personally opted for and exceeded my expectations. After the martini and grub we opted for a couple of their draft beers which were also a great choice. By the time we were leaving, the bar was full and there was a lively birthday party being hosted in the back. I'd recommend black rabbit for any type of evening you're looking to have.
