Hippie Hour margaritas steps from Barclays Center
Burrito Bar, formally Burrito Bar & Kitchen, is a full-service Mexican and Tex-Mex spot at 307 Flatbush Avenue in Prospect Heights, just a couple of blocks from Barclays Center. It leans into a “60s Hippie Rock Tex-Mex” theme and has been in Brooklyn since the mid-2000s, after starting in Tribeca back in 1991. Between the margaritas, the guacamole, and the location, it is a natural pre- and post-event stop for the arena crowd.
The kitchen turns out burritos, tacos, fajitas, and a signature guacamole, with mains running roughly $9 to $20. The bar is a real draw in its own right, with a deep list of margaritas and frozen fruit cocktails. There is outdoor seating, and the colorful, tile-accented room is built for groups.
The Happy Hour
The happy hour here is called Hippie Hour and runs Monday through Friday from 4 to 7pm, with reduced prices on classic margaritas, beer, wine, and sangria plus 10% off appetizers; reported pricing puts margaritas around $4.50 and domestic drafts around $3.50. A late-night bar-only window brings the same deals back from 11pm to midnight. The best value is Thursday, Ladies Night, when the Hippie Hour specials run all night long in both the bar and the dining room.
The Room
The room is loud, colorful, and group-friendly, dressed in Mexican tilework with a lively bar anchoring the space. There is outdoor seating for warmer months, and the whole place tilts toward a fun, casual vibe rather than a quiet dinner. On event nights it fills with the Barclays crowd before and after games and shows.
