"This Boerum Hill bar on the corner of Hoyt and State Streets benefits from not one but two Open Streets closures, making it possibly the most fortunately positioned spot in the entire city. Every day, you can sit in the middle of State Street (or on Hoyt Street on weekends) and enjoy big towers of seafood and well-made cocktails. Plus, they run a daily Happy Hour (from 4-6pm on weekdays and 2-4pm on weekends) where you can get a dozen oysters for $25 and $1 of wine by the glass and draft beer. Also important: all of their summer cocktails are currently Nicholas Cage-themed. We’re not kidding." - Hannah Albertine
