What is the happy hour at The Narrows?
The Narrows is a craft cocktail bar on the Bushwick–East Williamsburg line at 1037 Flushing Avenue, long and skinny up front before it opens onto a back patio that punches well above its size. The cocktail list is the draw, with well-made classics like the Last Word alongside originals like the Babushka.
It is an intimate, dimly lit neighborhood spot with a deep whiskey and mezcal selection and a garden that becomes the best seat in the house in summer. One important heads-up: it runs cash only, so hit an ATM before you go.
The Happy Hour
Happy hour is Monday through Friday from 5 to 8 PM, with discounts on draft beer and the frozen 16-ounce tropical cocktails the bar is known for. The $1 oyster deal runs daily until 7 PM and stacks nicely with a happy-hour drink. Remember it is cash only.
The Room
A narrow, atmospheric front bar gives way to a surprisingly roomy back patio, the real prize once the weather warms. The vibe is intimate and cocktail-forward, with a well-stocked whiskey and mezcal back bar.
