Flatbush
Happy Hour

A seven-day happy hour from opening: $6 well drinks, $1 off the eight draft lines and wine, $2 off frozen drinks. The all-day specials are better still: a $7 Lucky Shot of Cazadores or Four Roses, a well shot and a Narragansett for $10, or $4 for a well shot with any draft. Over 75 bourbons and whiskeys behind the bar, and a flower shop sharing the building. The Verdict: the best happy hour in Flatbush, and the only one with prices. The Local Move: free trivia on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday, free karaoke every Saturday. The Honest Caveat: 21+ after 5pm, and there’s no phone line for the bar.

A Caribbean restaurant and lounge (the name stands for “people in Caribbean heritage”) with a weekday happy hour, Taco Tuesday and weekend brunch from 11am. Open until 2am Thursday to Saturday. The Verdict: the only other posted happy hour on this page. The Honest Caveat: no happy hour prices are posted, so we can’t tell you what it saves.

The happy hour menu lists $10 classic margaritas, mojitos and piña coladas, $9 sangria, $7 mimosas, $6 drafts (Allagash White, Sixpoint Bengali) and $5 bottles. It just never says which days or hours. Weekend brunch comes with bottomless cocktails. The Verdict: the best-priced margarita on Cortelyou, if you catch it. The Honest Caveat: with no posted window, we can’t list it as a happy hour.

More than 70 rums and a garden in Little Caribbean, open 3pm to 2am Tuesday to Sunday. Signature drinks are $15–16 (a three-rum Rodney Bay punch, a Ms. Ting with Worthy Park overproof); the happy hour menu lists $10 wines, margaritas, sorrel daiquiris and lemon drops without saying when. The Verdict: the late-night rum bar in Flatbush. The Honest Caveat: closed Monday, and no posted happy hour times.

Cocktails at $14–17, wines by the glass at $13–16, 16 oz drafts from Talea, Threes and Other Half at $10, and cheese or charcuterie at $12 each or three for $30. Open from 11am (10am at weekends) until midnight on Friday and Saturday. The Verdict: the date-night bar on Cortelyou. The Honest Caveat: nothing is discounted at any hour.

Named after Arsenal’s old ground and billed as the home of the Brooklyn Gunners, with every Premier League match on. One of Arsenal NYC’s partner pubs. The Verdict: the place in Flatbush to watch a match. The Honest Caveat: no hours, drink prices or happy hour posted online.

Thomas Ferlesch, of Café des Artistes and Thomas Beisl, cooks Viennese here: a $13 pretzel with liptauer cheese, $25 schnitzels with four salads, gulasch with spätzle at $29. The Verdict: the best dinner in this part of Flatbush. The Honest Caveat: cash and American Express only, and reservations only for six or more.

Momos at $14, jhol momo in broth at $16, a Nepali thali at $17, and a bar with $6 beers, $8 hot sake and $14 house cocktails, including a Ditmas old fashioned. The Verdict: dumplings and a $6 beer, the easy dinner on Cortelyou. The Honest Caveat: hours aren’t posted online.

Home-style Thai with classic Isan dishes, beer and wine on a list you ask for at the table, and a backyard patio in the warm months. Open daily for lunch and dinner. The Verdict: the backyard dinner on the east end of Cortelyou. The Honest Caveat: no drink prices online.
