Fort Defiance

Restaurant · Red Hook

"After relocating down the block on Van Brunt Street, these days Fort Defiance (a part of the same team that owns Gage & Tollner) is a general store selling sandwiches and provisions — with a bar in the back. Dinner items lean snacky, with pimento cheese tip, oysters, deviled eggs, all best enjoyed with the spot’s Irish coffee it's come to be known for." - Eater Staff
