Astoria Bar Crawl: Better Than The Beer Garden!


Don't feel like waiting in line to snag a seat and a pitcher at the Bohemian Hall and Beer Garden this summer? There are plenty of other places in this diverse 'hood to get your drink (and dance) on. Here are a few of my favorite spots.

    The Sparrow - 2 1/2

    2401 29th St. - Astoria

    Brought to you by the same folks who operated one of the hood's best watering holes, the now shuttered (and sorely missed)Tupelo, The Sparrow is a hip and cozy pseudo dive that's located right across the street from the beer garden. Grab a table here if you're seeking something a little more exotic than charred brats and bland pilsner. Try a yummy bulgogi burger and wash it down with a pint of hearty chimay blue ale. It's so good, you'll forget you're not even sitting outside!

    Cavo Cafe Lounge - 4 1/2

    4218 31st Ave - Queens

    It's big in every way. One of the best outdoor patios this side of the East River. Stay late and get your groove on with the local, mostly Greek, masses or go early, sip a cocktail and skedaddle before the DJ (and the thirsty crowd) shows up.

    The Quays - 5

    45-02 30th Ave. - Astoria

    Any old-school Irish pub that Shane MacGowan frequents whenever he's in town is golden in my book (and within stumbling distance from my apartment)!

    Hell Gate Social - 5

    12-21 Astoria Blvd. - Astoria

    Sunday night summer movies and outdoor patio. Need I say more?
