The Binc

Brooklyn Heights’ 13 Go-To Restaurants and Bars

"An intimate cocktail den that’s been around for less than two years, The Binc takes its mixology seriously, with unexpected flavor notes and often lushly accessorized cocktails. It’s a snug space with neatly dressed bartenders, better for dates and quieter catch-ups than group situations. There’s a tightly edited food menu, with options like roasted marcona almonds, pastrami tacos, and speck-wrapped artichoke hearts with whipped goat cheese and honey truffle sauce. Drinks-wise, in addition to carefully prepared cocktails, there’s a wide selection of Champagnes and cavas available — the place’s name, short for Bubbles Inc., is actually a nod to effervescent sips." - Alexandra Ilyashov
