I like a place that's different. And Fort Greene is one of those places...it's got all the good vibes.
I'm a little ashamed to admit that I'd heard of this place a few times and just never made it happen. Then, while flipping through our Denver drinking passport one snowy evening, we decided to make the trek to Fort Greene. For us, it's a bit of trek, but oh-so-worth-it.
It was one of those evenings with crazy snow which meant the place was EMPTY. As in completely, totally all to ourselves. As we walked in, I noticed the beautiful, intricate wooden bar, and I was hooked. It's one of a kind. Then, add to that the unique pieces, including their tap, and hanging plants galore. *swoon* All the vibes. Couches and other cozy ways to lounge that you can get lost in...wallpaper that is a bit reminiscent of your grandma's house but it just WORKS here...flora and fauna everywhere...perfection.
When it comes to drinks, go with a classic. Hard to miss when the bartenders are as knowledgeable as they are here. We also ordered the tots, because yes. They did not disappoint. (Sidenote--on select nights, you can get some Longipie options. Also delish!)
Why do we keep going back? The vibes; the service, the bar, the drinks. That first night resulted in fabulous conversation and we were well cared for. When we mentioned the next spot we were headed, the bartender mixed up a boomerang for us to pass along at the next bar. Now that's fun!
