Park Slope Ale House is one of Park Slope's older eating and drinking establishments, known for its burgers and a rotating cast of 20-plus draft beers. Despite the beer-stained tables and old-school pub vibe, it's a family-friendly place.
Black Horse Pub is a friendly neighborhood bar in the classic English style. Featuring a rotating selection of 16 beers on tap, Black Horse shows all of the English soccer games on a big-screen TV. A crowd regularly forms to enjoy watching the sport together, even if it's 7am. On the weekends, a DJ usually keeps the place lively.
"Have a beer. Bring your dog. Share the love!" This is the message chalked on the board outside this late-night bar and it says it all. This popular neighborhood spot has pinball machines, a billiard table and bar and table seating.
Smith's Tavern has been with Park Slope on 5th Avenue, near the corner of 9th Street for more than 75 years. It's hard to tell its age since it received a renovation in 2000. Smith's continues to be frequented by locals for drinks, sporting events and the lovely music played from its jukebox. The bar has 15 beers on tap and several TVs to watch sports.
Washington Commons opened in 2009. From the outside one may not be able to tell this was a bar, but this is a local place to hangout and the bar has 10 local beers and a wide range of spirits. The back porch is open in warmer weather. Happy hours typically run from 3pm to 8pm on weekdays and 1pm to 4pm on weekend.
