Happy Hour at Troost
Troost is a small, softly lit cocktail bar on Manhattan Avenue that has quietly become one of Greenpoint’s most beloved neighborhood hangs. The room is intimate and unfussy, the kind of place where the bartenders know the regulars and the drinks are made with real care rather than theatrics.
The real draw is out back: a lush, plant-filled garden that feels worlds away from the street. Come for a natural wine or a well-built Negroni, settle into the greenery, and you understand why locals treat this place as a living room.
The Happy Hour
Happy hour at Troost runs daily from 4pm to 8pm, a generous four-hour window that covers the whole early evening. The headliner is the $8 Negroni, and the deal extends across beer, wine, and cocktails, so there is something for every mood. It pairs especially well with a seat in the backyard before the after-work crowd fills in.
The Room
The front room is compact and candlelit, with a handful of seats at the bar and a few small tables. The heart of the space is the back garden, densely planted with flowers and greenery and open when the weather cooperates. It is casual, comfortable, and built for lingering.
