The Bodega Lounge

"I’m not saying this because the owner is my family but I’m saying this because it’s truly a vibe here. There’s never a delay in service. It’s catered to black and queer communities but also open to all . I’ve celebrated my pre birthday here and the service was exceptional. I tell everyone about it . I definitely recommended most of my friend list here"

"Authentic & full of life.The atmosphere alone will make you feel like you’ve found your “cheers”. Great drinks, superb music, fantastic service, great vibes."

"One of the best lounges Brooklyn has to offer. Everyone is very welcoming and I always have a great time and thoughtful conversations."

"It’s a vibe. If you’re looking for a spot to grab a drink, listen to good music, and have a great conversation, this is it. Our bartender Jordyn was an absolute gem and offered excellent wine and beer recommendations. She’s highly attentive and will be sure to keep the drinks flowing. In lieu of happy hour, there are impressive drink specials. And if you’re hungry, you can go to any of the nearby restaurants (I’m talking five feet away) and bring your food here to eat while you drink. As random as this may sound, the restroom is one of best I’ve ever seen in a public space. I don’t want to ruin the surprise, but I’ll just say that it’s a really creative concept that has inspired me to repurpose things. Check this place out! You won’t be disappointed."
