Drinks & Nightlife

This is a great Rock + Roll bar any night of the week, but they have Heavy Metal Karaoke on Wednesdays! It's one of my favorite haunts. They also serve food until 3am. BAM.

Enid's is a neighborhood mainstay...one of the first 'new' bars in Greenpoint. The food, company, and music are always solid, and the late night happy hours aren't to be missed.

Technically this is a german beer garden, but they're sort of lacking the garden. I'd consider it more of a massive bar with ~1 billion different kinds of beer to choose from. They serve food, too.
