Love this place! Started coming for their Survivor viewing parties last year, but come back more often since the staff is so wonderful. They have lots of great events in the back room. Good snacks, great drinks.

Came in on a very slow July 3rd night and sat by the windows drinking beer with my wife. We loved it! The bartender was super nice, we wanted to be friends with her. The big windows are great if there's a breeze on a warm night. Drinks were great, loved the vibe, will be back when we're in the neighborhood.

After having a terrible experience at another bar, we were happy to find our way to Crystal Lake where we were instantly greeted by Jon upon entry. He was so accommodating, helpful, and kind. He made us the best drinks, and we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves. He even helped me look for my cell phone which ended up being in my pocket – don’t ask. I cannot say enough positive remarks! We’re definitely planning on going back and making Crystal Lake a part of the normal BK rotation.

I wasn’t planning to come here. I didn’t know about this place. I have to give them 5 stars, the atmosphere has an ambiance where the bar n the kitchen has an addictive welcome. You can spend it with friends or be by yourself and never feel alone. Now nice twist is the kitchen, called “bitchn kitchen”, to die for, chicken wings are amazing, a tender crispy delight evenly tasty with every bite sweet n spicy to perfection. Queso frito, wow, my mom would be estático delicious salty tasty cheese bites dipped in a guava sauce that compliments every bite. Plain fries better than McDonald’s but as addictive. You can’t wrong here. Good atmosphere. The picture its your typical I eat first n remember later to take a picture. If you meet the couple behind the Bitchn kitchen, you’ll understand their flare to bring up simple dishes n the dishes taste good n satisfy the soul

Great neighborhood bar. Delicious drinks. I had heart of darkness cocktail, loved it. If you like sour and spicy this is it. Old fashioned was little too sweet. Anyway, great place!

Such a cool space. Comfortable with little nooks you can sit in with a date or group of friends. Great cocktails at a reasonable price, considering time and ingredients. Great art and design throughout. Plus the back room usually has some whimsical entertainment.

Huge back room space for hosting groups needing to watch a big screen. Kind workers too! Just a heads up it’s $20 card minimum

I LOVE the decor here it's amazing. Excellent happy hour, great staff, great music, and fun movies on the tv. My only complaint is that as a vegetarian there's nothing I can eat - the fries are made in the same fryer as meat so I can't eat any of the food. BUT if you do eat meat, it looks delicious!

I had a great time at Crystal Lake Bar in Brooklyn. My bartender, maybe her name is Christine (who is to say), was very polite and made a mean drink. I let her know how much I loved the theme. She replied by putting on the newest Scream movie while serving the best drinks. If you like booze, this bar is for you. If you like classic horror movies, this bar is definitely for you!!! I'm not near the area, and yet I will definitely be coming again and bringing friends.
