Are These the 10 Best Bars in Brooklyn?
The Voice’s Fork in the Road blog recently released a ranking of the 10 best bars in Brooklyn. Selections were based on “atmosphere, company, value, and the quality of the beverages,” and Williamsburg’s Spuyten Duyvil nabbed the top spot. The rest: 2.

The Tip Top is delightful.
Ginger’s!!
and if 11217 says so, it must be true.
Agree with a lot of the Top 10 list, but put me in the camp that dislikes Clover Club and all places like it the are characterized by (1) being unfriendly and (2) overpriced. They just are not neighborhood bars.
That plus Clover Hill displaced Johnny’s Bootery which was an institution andjust about the only place in this part of Brooklyn where you could get good old fashioned children’s shoes.
“Is that paper relevant in any way at all now?”
Negatron.
Haven’t looked at it in 5 years.
I just noticed this article is from the Village Voice. Is that paper relevant in any way at all now?
c-gar & 11217, her name was frankie. Always enjoyed myself there but I think if 40 people showed up they wouldn’t be prepared. Brooklyn Ale House wasn’t happy with the plusas one night either.
Just what is it about listicles that gets people in such a tizzy?
Surely the inclusion of Denny’s Steak Pub as a runner-up was a joke.
