This place is so awesome, that I proposed to my girlfriend there this past Saturday night. Our friend Liz brought us last year and we had such a great time and everyone was so nice and real, that it is now a special place for us. Such a great place with great people. Special thanks to Liz, Kerry, and Michael, as well as anyone there in the back with us when I popped the question. Awesome bar!
All the food was awesome and very sharable here and they have a great selection of drinks as well. Shots are kind of small (served in tiny plastic shot cups), and it is exclusively cash only, but there is an ATM on site and their outdoor space is very spacious and can accommodate larger groups.
Tasty burgers, cold beer, good customer service. What more could you want?
Ended up here for food on a Sunday night when everywhere else has closed their kitchens already. Classic cash only dive bar vibes, in a good way. ATM on site for cash!
Such a dingy, no frills bar. Cheap beers, shots and food. Frito pie and hot dog was a nice snack. Fairly busy and pretty quick dor service. Would happy drop in again any time
I Love the Ice House. I don’t go as much as I did ten years ago but I always create warm memories and I’m always treated well, which is a real treat these days. It’s cash only, and I hope that by saying so in a review I’ll remember for myself next time. (There’s an ATM on site!)
Oh, and ten years ago I was here drinking my cash tips and I met my lawyer! It was one of the most New York City moments I’ve ever had.
Don't trick yourself looking from the outside. Once you get inside you will find a cozy, lay back and cool atmosphere to enjoy drinks, food or be in the backyard with friends. There is no push from the bartender to get drinks every time, no drunk people yelling, good spot with music, tv and special event. This has become our place and we had a great time everytime we show up. Don't expect to have a waiter checking on you all time time because the bartender is pretty much the one who run the tables when they can, still they are always available and helpful for whatever you need. Prices are very affordable including for drinks and they got special and happy hours.
Highly recommended place if you want a classic old school bar in a cozy warm place in a safe environment to eat or drink.
A true Red Hook gem, and an unparalleled place to spend a Sunday afternoon. These guys have everything you want in a day drinking spot: awesome burgers and wings (especially the wings), cheap beer/shot specials, board games and a jar of candy by the door. Spend an afternoon at this place and you’ll wanna come back again and again.
Good people, the food smells incredible (we didn’t get a chance to eat, though)
Love this place. Food is always tasty. Drinks are cold.
Great dive, reasonably priced, and Miller High Life
