What it is: A down-to-earth Irish pub bar in the heart of Sunset Park, it’s the place to go when you want a good, cheap drink with none of the nonsense. Even though you’ll encounter lots of regulars, any newcomers will still feel right at home. This place is as relaxed as it gets, so head over and put a few dollars in their jukebox, grab a cheap beer, and enjoy.
Why we love it: It’s a neighborhood staple with great drink deals and even a few food giveaways like Taco Tuesdays. Come and play a game of foosball, pool, or darts with some of Brooklyn’s natives. There’s plenty of space and potential for a great conversation with a Sunset Park lifer.
Who to bring: Your buddies, who you’ll take down in darts or pool. If you know anybody who needs to save a few dollars, rest assured that nobody will break the bank.
What to order: With 11 beers on tap, you’re bound to find a favorite of yours, and you won’t need to be a baller to get any of them. You can’t go wrong with $5 for a perfectly poured 20 ounces of Guinness.
Fun fact(s): Irish Haven was featured in the bar scene of The Departed, so feel free to head out and do your best Leonardo DiCaprio impression. Also, Irish Haven just turned 50, so make sure to wish them a happy birthday when you get that second $5 cocktail.
