The bar is a good vibe and the moules frites and spicy margs were solid. The service, unfortunately, not so much. Our bartender was (apparently) getting off their shift after taking our order, yet never told us nor the new bartender. We waited around for a bit, and no one helped us out or said anything, so I went to the bar to re-order. The new bartender was nice and made a great drink, and while apologetic, it was still a bit clueless...But, this stuff happens. Unfortunately, it happened twice tonight. We had a server come by later to check on us, and he took our food and second drink order. The drinks never showed nor did he check on us again. Food was very solid though.
We're hoping it was just an off night for service and we're going to give it another shot and I'll amend my review if so ... 🤞🏻

Great place for French casual food & atmosphere. Went there 3+ times, got steak frites, charcuterie board once. Recommend! Wish they would serve fresh baguette instead of rye bread with certain dishes though.

If you happen to be in the Boerum Hill area I would stop by and grab the salmon burger. It was juicy, lemony and super fresh. The calamari was also very well done, crispy and the sauce that comes with it was tangy and mildly spicy. I was not the biggest fan of the charcuterie board we got. The meats were regular cuts of deli meat and a patee that was good but I have no idea what it was made from. I still ate it though- it’s an acquired taste. I wouldn’t recommend it but if you’re in need to grab something to share then that’s a good idea.

Had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday at Bar Tabac and had a wonderful time! We enjoyed great wine recommended by their sommelier, Pierre, who is very attentive and kind, and were able to cut my birthday cake there. As a group of 16 we were able to book the back lounge for a cozy private experience. 10/10

Excellent experiences here and I’m writing this review after my 4th visit. Each time I thought it was excellent and each time has been ever better than the last. I have to say, the calamari is amazing. I don’t usually order calamari and am not a fan of the fried version generally, but their version was perfect - tender, not even the slightest bit of greasiness from being fried and amazing flavor and the accompanying sauce really complimented the calamari and did not mask any of the flavor at all. If I lived closer I would go all the time.

This place is as French as can be when you're in Brooklyn. The ambience, the decor, the music, the bottles on display, the food and drink menu.
I had the tartar, and it was great! Will come back if I'm in the area again!

I'm a big fan of bar tabac! I live in the neighborhood nearby and whenever i'm in the area I make sure to stop by. everything on the menu is pretty classically french, not a "riff on a classic" so you know what you're getting into. the french onion soup, burger, niçoise, and frites were great. I love the jugs wine. on weekends they have live music which is a special treat! the staff is lovely and very french too.

A nice laid back restaurant. The food and cocktails were great. The atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing afternoon. We went for late lunch and the service was a little slow, however we didn't complain as the ambience was nice. The outside tables are spaced out enough unlike the cluttered NYC places.

Went for Bastille Day. It was so busy and full but we still were seated in 15 minutes. Got the steak Frites. Staff was very kind and swift. Brunch at this spot is also great. Live music on the side walk and at night in the bar. it’s a great vibe in the neighborhood

Stopped in here for drinks and appetizers and sat at the bar. The lighting is low, music at a good level, & the service was great. The calamari was perfection, French fries were pretty basic for truffle fries. But overall this is a great spot for quick bite, a date night, or solo dinner/drinks.
