Red Hook Lobster Pound: $1 Oysters and $5 Gansett, Mon–Fri 4–6pm
Red Hook Lobster Pound runs the best happy hour in Red Hook: Monday to Friday, 4–6pm, $1 oysters and $5 Narragansett at 284 Van Brunt St.
The verdict: five days a week, cheap shellfish and a $5 pour, at a place that charges $41 for a lobster roll the rest of the time. Sit down for it, because it’s dine-in only.
The Happy Hour
- Oysters: $1 each, the chef’s selection (a Wellfleet is $3.50 off the clock)
- Narragansett draft: $5 a glass (a pint is $7 otherwise)
- Rosé or chardonnay: $5 a glass, $24 a bottle
- Margarita: $10, plus $3 for a flavor
- Fish tacos: $10
Not honored on weekday holidays.
The Room
A family-run lobster shack that started in 2009 with two tanks and a tent at the Brooklyn Flea, now a full restaurant with an outdoor shack and seating inside. Every draft is from New York or New England. The NYC Ferry stop is a short walk away.
