The Crown Inn

The Crown Inn is basically the social center of Crown Heights right now. It's warm, inviting, friendly, and incredibly social. After even a few visits you'll start to see familiar faces. And while they have a great beer list (with great prices) the bartenders also make fantastic cocktails both on menu and off.

The most reliable spot on Franklin Avenue for beer on tap, a nice wine, a staple signature cocktail. Popular joint, nice bartenders, swell backyard patio. Been around awhile for a reason. Nice dark interior with all the vibes. After 10 or so can get crowded on weekends, mostly in a good way. Get there in the pm after they open at 4 for a straightforwardly close space to have a chat. Wonderful place to spot a drink with friends before or after dinner. Great location on Franklin. It’s a bar you want in your neighborhood and the people you find there are usually the ones you wanted to find.

This was a great bar with low key vibe. We got there at 1am the thr music was upbeat and tge drinks were flowing. I ordered a spiced apple cider with bourbon. It was amazing. The 5qst of the holidays mixed with the warmed of a NYC feel gave me what I needed. It was definitely a sipping drink with enough alcohol to put everything in the right perspective
