The Brass Tap

This place has a great beer selection and will even give you a to go cup if you're riding the ferry. Just let them know and they'll have you out in time. I've had nothing but good food from this place also.

This bar needs to have quicker service since many of us are coming in just for a quick drink before catching the next boat - they're frequently late at serving you a simple bottled beer and even slower when it comes to closing out your tab. Skip this place and just grab a beer from the deli in the terminal or on the ferry itself.

Great beer selection, food could be better

Despite a menu offering beer by the can and bottle, they did not have any beer by the can or bottle when I visited. As far as the food is concerned, I don't understand why any establishment that advertises food being served would serve such terrible food. We ordered four appetizers for the table to share, and they were all quite disgusting. No one at the table is a picky eater but the food was barely edible. The food was stale, tasted funny and cooked wrong, we took one small bite of two of the dishes and returned all of the food and left. Having a craft beer bar and restaurant at the ferry terminal is a great idea, but it needs to be run by someone who knows what they are doing. It amazes me that someone runs a craft beer bar and restaurant that doesn't serve half of its beer menu and has terrible food and hopes to be successful. Very disappointing.

Great beer selection and an awesome location. Nice to stop in for a pint when you've missed the boat back to Staten island or for a pregame on your way into the city. I haven't tried the food yet but the sights and scents were promising.
