Not hard to miss this hideaway, but worth finding! Fantastic Bar and cocktail menu a real throwback to quality neighborhood Bar we thought didn't exist in this day and age.
Whiskey drinks my favorite.

From the street it seemed like just a door with a neon lamp that spells "BAR"...

It was wayyyyyy better than i initially expected.

Dutch Kills Bar has an amazing wood panel lined interior. All dark wood throughout the entire bar. There is a killer booth section for exclusive seating and it great because it allows you to have a bit of privacy. Staff is great, and they're quick, too. Learned so much about cocktails and history of bars, speakeasies, and craft ice too!

When I visited the ladies room, it was spotless. I was impressed to use fancy hand soaps and fancy napkins. Really cute posters in the ladies room, too! Selfie lighting!
The bar area is enormous, and theres plenty of seating bar side, if thats what you like to do. I like tables.

Staff was super, we even got complimentary round for a group of 4, which is pretty generous. I love this bar!

If you see a BAR neon light near Queens Plaza, go inside and enjoy some drinks perfectly done. Cool place and nice guys. They also have a not so short list of hot drinks also good.

Cool setting and great drinks. Would go back daily if the area. It's out of the way but good to tie in with a visit to MoMA ps1. Nice fit out. Good staff. Great drinks.

Dutch Kills was the first location I attempted to find in LIC upon arrival. There is a lit sign well above the entrance: BAR Once found, it is a sweet retreat from the mean street. The ice cubes are artwork in themselves.
