Left Hand Path

Been coming here for many years and it’s one of my favorites. It is a rare place in that it can seamlessly adapt to your drinking needs. Great cocktails; but can also be your highlife and shot combo spot when you want that. Service has always been wonderful.

I’ve been coming here for a couple years and it’s such a gem in bushwick. Brian the bartender is always an amazing person to serve you drinks. Don’t forget to checkout the backyard!

Super cute spot that is a perfect date vibe with pretty solid drinks. Only reason for the lower stars is that the outside area (which is incredibly cute and inviting) allows open smoking. It wouldn’t be such an issue if it was an open top, but as there is a roof, the smoke ends up just circling around. There are tons of "no smoking" signs, but when I brought it up to the bartender, she said "oh we just have those up for DOH. We don’t actually enforce that." So, like I said— super cute spot and wish we could enjoy the backyard, but if you’re seriously averse to cigarette smoke like myself, just enjoy the inner establishment!

Love this bar. Probably my favorite in Bushwick. Good selection of both niche and crowd-favorite beers, relaxed vibe with great lighting, and a spacious backyard area. Maine Beer Company often on tap. Bartenders are always nice. Good times.

a+! i celebrated my birthday at left hand path and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. the vibe is chill and cozy and the frozen painkillers were dangerously delicious. highly recommend!

I went here on Friday October 17th for my birthday around 11:30pm to get a couple drinks to celebrate with some friends. When approaching the bar to order drinks the female bartender working immediately put her finger in our face to signal us to wait. She then proceeded to respond rudely to a friend of mine ordering that wanted a mock-tail and said she doesn’t have the ingredients with no alternative options before walking away mid conversation. Later in the night when my friends surprised me with a birthday cake my boyfriend politely asks the same bartender for a knife for the cake and her response "I’m not going to give a knife to you people" (we were the only people of color occupying this bar). After all of this I tried to salvage the night and have a good time regardless. When I attempted to close out the tab to get my card she insisted she returned it to me personally when that did not happen and was given to someone else in my party of friends. Then proceeds to laugh about the mistake in my face to another customer at the bar. This used to be one of my favorite neighborhood bars that I was excited to bring my friends to for the first time. I’m deeply disappointed and will not be coming back again as I no longer feel comfortable.

One of my favorite spots in Bushwick. Great cocktails, a solid beer list with local options, and a backyard that’s perfect when it’s nice out. The bartenders are friendly, know their stuff, and make it easy to find something you’ll actually like.
