Ginger's Bar

"While Ginger’s in Park Slope is a lesbian hangout at its core, the bar welcomes all members of the LGBTQ+ community and attracts bar goers of all ages and genders. It’s a legit dive with cheap drinks, kitschy decor, and a pool table. There’s an enclosed garden out back, and the bar never feels clubby, so it’s an ideal spot for a chill night of pool and music. With plenty of space, it’s great for groups. This year, the bar opened a sibling location called Mary’s in Greenpoint." - Eater Staff

"Ginger’s is the last remaining lesbian bar in Brooklyn as of early 2021." - Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner

"Ginger’s is highlighted in The Lesbian Bar Project docuseries." - Emma Orlow

"After remaining closed for 19 months during the pandemic, New York institution Ginger’s Bar reopened in November of last year. Brooklyn Magazine checks in on the storied queer space — said to be the last remaining lesbian bar in the borough, and one of three left citywide." - Emma Orlow

"Recalling one of the last nights they spent together pre-pandemic, at Ginger's, Brooklyn’s only (and still shuttered) lesbian bar, the two wanted to find a way to protect these 15 or so remaining safe spaces now, and sustain them long after the COVID-19 pandemic ends."
