Emerson Grocery

Best bar pool table in Brooklyn! Good Scotch too.

A pretty new place with an even newer back patio. Cheap Lionshead in cans, beers on tap are on par with the area price & selection-wise. I haven't tried the food but it's very basic, I recently moved to the area and tend to come after dinner elsewhere. The patio is really lovely, it's a deck off to the back/side with nice lighting for night time & even a couple of trees for daytime shade. The bartenders have been kinda hit-or-miss, really nice but not altogether together, sort of like they have too much fun hanging out with the customers & taking turns playing pool to be really good tenders. The decor is a little fancier than the place actually is, it's very dark with shiny wood, brass accents & snazzy mirrors but the clientele and staff are pretty casual, much like the area where it's located.
