Bearded Lady - Brooklyn

I am not the one to write reviews unless it's absolutely necessary. I would not recommend this bar to my worst enemy. We were treated poorly and unfairly by the staff through condescending remarks and slow service. My party (60 people) rented out half the bar at a $2,800 minimum tab to celebrate an engagement. The whole night was a consistent battle to get the staff's attention and be served food and drinks. Due to only having access to one bar tender and slow service, we came up $1,400 short of the minimum tab. Instead of the Bearded Lady's staff understanding our frustration, they would not let us speak to a manager and demanded the residual payment. I have never been more disgusted with a staff crew in my existence. Please save your time, dignity, and money, and go someplace else.

Amazing Bar, Best everything, martinis cocktails are great here and the owners, bartenders, manager, and servers keep everything Super Safe.Best pool table in Brooklyn, delicious snacks, and if they could remember to put the mop in the champagne room it might be easier to quickly mop up the broken glasses that happen every once in a while.I’m a Singer, distiller and a cocktail designer on Wall St now from Hudson NY, been in BK for a long time and also worked here, started training as bartender @15 years old, Upstate.Love it, keep coming back and keep your friends safe.

This place was just okay!The drinks were okay nothing spectacular as was the Chicago hotdogs with the accepting of the bun that it was on which was great. The service was quite fast though it was a pretty full house. The ambiance is Extremely loud, so this will not be a quiet evening oyt. The patrons are noisy ,bartenders taking shots at the bar out of the bottles. The decor was nice for theme I believe 50s .

Great ambiance! Delicious drinks. Beautiful presentation and very well balanced flavors. Had a wonderful time here with good friends. Would definitely come back.

Short answer: definitely worth a visit!Longer answer: we popped in for an afternoon cocktail and my first impression of the Bearded Lady was the wonderful color scheme that felt tropical, perhaps something from southern Florida. The vibe required me to order a rum based drink, but my girlfriend had a glass of excellent red wine and I had to honor my Nordic roots and try their “Dill or no dill” which was an aquavit based cocktail.. you don’t really see too many of those in the US so naturally I had to try it. I’ll say this, having grown up on the Swedish west coast, I’ve had my fair share of aquavit variations, but this cocktail was so incredibly good it’s the only thing I’m choosing to focus this review on. That cocktail in itself is well worth the visit!Other than that, the staff was super friendly, it was a clean place, their cocktails were strong and delicious. Well worth a visit!
