"Look out at the water from Brooklyn Crab, and you’ll see giant container ships sitting on water you probably wouldn’t swim in for anything less than a bottle of very nice Scotch (or three bottles of Canadian Club). Even still, this Red Hook spot definitely feels summery. The crab traps and fake sharks hanging from the ceilings will take your mind off the fact that you’re next to warehouse parking lots. After finishing off some crab legs and popcorn shrimp, take off your bib and play cornhole or mini-golf in the backyard." - matt tervooren
