Little Rascal Bar

We visited Little Rascal Greenpoint for weekend brunch and were thrilled to find a table without a reservation! As a Turkish foodie, I especially loved finally finding delicious sucuk done right. The halloumi croquette was pure elite—perfectly balanced and beautifully served with apple butter and Marcona almonds. Of course, we got honey and kaymak.. The smoked salmon fattoush impressed with toasted sourdough, zesty za’atar, a fresh minced salad, and diced avocado. The Red Zhoug Shakshouka was vibrant and comforting, with house-made tomatoes and red bell pepper sauce. And the summer burrata salad featured top-quality olives, perfectly delicious burrata, orange zest, watermelon that made every bite memorable. Our server gentleman was so nice and friendly, which made the experience even better. If you’re in Williamsburg and love brunch with a creative, high-quality twist, this place is a must-visit.

A great Cocktail Bar with a cool Backyard and Dog friendly. Cute decor. It's pricey but worth checking out. Good service, not warm but it is what it is Iykyk. Might go back but it's not a priority.

+ Get $25 off $50 using the link on my profile! Tried a few different drinks here and they were all satisfactory! The fruity pebbles cocktail was probably the most on-point “fruity pebbles” cocktail I’ve had. I’m excited to come back to try the drinks I didn’t get to this time around.

4.5/5 - We stopped by Little Rascals on a Monday evening without reservations and were immediately seated. The patio was inviting, but it got hot and buggy as the day wore on. Thankfully, the restaurant provided repellent. Our server was understanding when we decided to move inside. The ambiance is great, and the staff is friendly. We ordered a few rounds of cocktails, including El Cantinero with Mezcal, La Catarini, Blue Jinn, Beyond Ripert, and Perfect Prescription. All were well-made and popular enough to order twice. We also liked the food, which included Hummus with extra bread, Feta Phyllo Rolls, Fries with Truffle Salt, Halloumi Croquetas, and Smoked Lamb Tacos. Overall, Little Rascals is a great spot for a big group or a nice evening date.

Really cute bar. Fantastic cocktail for happy hours. We also ordered oysters and they were so good! Bartender was very friendly and welcoming. Will visit again.

Had a great time at this spot! Our server, Ursula, was warm, attentive, and took the time to explain all of the drinks to us, which made choosing so much easier. I tried the ‘A Moveable Feast’ cocktail—it was perfectly balanced and unique without being over the top. The truffle fries were also amazing. Definitely a place I’d come back to.

Absolutely love the ambiance and staff at Little Rascal. Unfortunately was not a fan of the octopus carpaccio but have had other dishes here that I’ve loved, such as the American breakfast with sujuk! Drinks are yummy and service amazing! Bonus is their beautiful backyard area. Great for a Sunday brunch vibe. Shout out to Ursula and Keith 🩷 Definitely will be returning

We had a large group walk in on a Sunday evening and the Little Rascal team was super accommodating of our multiple tabs and had excellent service. On top of that, all the cocktails were spectacular. Highly recommend!

Stopped by here for drinks one night because I've always passed by Little Rascal in the day time. I loved the fact that this gem is open so late and caters to the local vibe. The drinks seemed reasonable and the interior is beautiful. My only concern was how booming the music was which seemed to make the crowd yell, so it's not really a place to have normal-voiced conversations. Overall, I would come back though to try the rest of their drinks. The Cosmic Debris was interesting and cute but didn't taste at all like pistachio. Service was fine and she was able to seat us elsewhere so we could be away from the speakers. Bathroom available. There's more room in the back and seating outdoors as well. Accepts cash, card and Apple pay. Drink up!

Tasty and inventive cocktail menu and food is up to par as well! 5/5 Flaco and Audrey 4/5 Cosmic Debris 4/5 Portrait of Ivy 4.5/5 Feta Phyllo Rolls -- generously stuff with feta, slightly crisp exterior, touch of sweetness at the end with fig jam 4/5 Okra -- very acidic profile overall, okra is super tender (not slimy!), wish we had bread served with it to soak up the tomato sauce. We visited as a party of 3 on a Sunday evening around 6pm, and were seated immediately at the booth by the entrance. There is also a spacious backyard area here if you do happen to come with a larger group. Note that there was only one server while we were here, so service is on the slower end.

I have nothing bad to say about this bar. Every drink on the menu tasted good. Everything felt original and well curated. Highly recommend

I came here recently for drinks with a friend. It was a nice evening, so we sat outside on the patio. It's really cute and cozy- it would make a great date spot! I ordered the Three Gueyes, which had tepache, a pineapple and cardamom foam, and a piece of dehydrated pineapple. The drink was pretty good, although I didn't really taste the flavors in the foam. The service here was fantastic. Our waitress came back multiple times to check on us and made sure we had everything we needed.

Stopped by for non-alcoholic drinks to catch up with a friend the other day - the bar was busy but not packed when we came by on a Saturday afternoon around 5pm. I got the Everleaf Spritz for 14.00 which had prima pavée n/a sparkling wine, everleaf forest, lemon, agave and my friend got the 3 Güeyes for $14.00 with tepache, pineapple & cardamom foam, dehydrated pineapple. She liked her drink but I wasn't a fan of mine. I'm not one to send orders back or complain so I continued to drink mine, but I was expecting a bit more flavor / something refreshing and/or sweet from the agave in my drink. Instead, it tasted just like if I just bought a stale lime La Croix that had lost most of its carbonation. The flavor wasn't there and it was extremely diluted. Service was decent, although it seemed like they were rushing us out the door. We got there around 5pm, each got a drink sitting at the bar, and chatted for about an hour to an hour and a half while there were still a few empty seats in the bar. It was pouring buckets of rain outside so we wanted to stay out of it until it got better. A friend had told us it was fine to stay longer since they were there the day before, but I think I would have preferred if they told us there was a seating limit or if they had reservations if they wanted us out so badly. I'm guessing it was because we sat at the bar that it was more obvious we were there for so long. I'm not mad about this spot but wasn't satisfied with my drink or the way it felt like we were being rushed out without a visible reason. If there genuinely wasn't a rush when they handed us the check then it would have been nice for them to tell us that as well. The place is really nice otherwise, with gorgeous decor and a cute patio in the back, although it's quite loud from all the people talking.

We stopped in on a Friday in May for Happy Hour. It was quiet (great!) and the server was very attentive, friendly and nice. We rode our bikes be wanted a place to stop and have a drink. Great place for a pit stop! We ordered a glass of the champagne ($14 for HH) lovely and Prosecco ($10) uninspiring. We also ordered half a doz n of the oysters (good) and French fries (just ok).

I've been a long time frequenter of Little Rascal's Manhattan location and have sung praises of their kahvaltı, but I unfortunately feel that the nuanced Turkish drink and food offerings of their original location have been dumbed down a bit at the Greenpoint outpost to appeal to a broader crowd. When I asked if they had any cocktails with rakı, I received a fully blank stare from the waitstaff. Service was also egregiously slow. I'm still giving 3 stars because my white Negroni was excellent, and I enjoyed the sigara böreği, even if everyone working here only knew them as "feta rolls."

If you're looking for a dope bar in GreenPoint BK then definitely stop here. I was impressed with the gorgeous lighting, the small details in the decor, and the bathroom smelled amazing. The menu is top tier filled with well crafted cocktails (spring/summer ready). Also I want to point out the friendly bartender who did an excellent job at guiding us through the menu. This one you should definitely add to your list.

Great drinks!! Love the aesthetic and wonderful service. Indoor and outside seating to fit whatever mood you're in. Great music indoors as well.

Super cute cocktail bar in greenpoint, I went during the week after a dinner and loved how quiet and cozy it was! Our drinks were very good too. Would be a good date spot,

Outstanding drinks from skilled and experienced bartenders who care about what they're serving. Inventive cocktails while maintaining well balanced flavors - surprisingly drinkable. Noticeable care and attention to detail for the preparation of the drinks and ingredients. I've visited a couple of times now, but popped in here on a whim after searching for a place to have a drink late at night as things were closing down. The menu has non-alcoholic options that they took the time to craft carefully so it didn't seem like just another overpriced juice option. My partner and I enjoyed that this space allowed us to talk and hear each other at a comfortable level. We always have a lovely time engaging in conversation with the bartenders each time we've visited.

One of my favorite bars in Greenpoint . the vibes, ambiance, cocktails, and staff are all amazing - Such a good date spot or somewhere to go to hang w friends. Cute outdoor area too!

Walked in on a Sunday evening of a holiday weekend and my party of 3 grabbed a table inside. I tried: + Key lime daiquiri + Flaco and Audrey + Turin S. tonka + Bend Sinister + Kurosawa's dream + Expendio de maiz The standouts were the Flaco and Audrey and Bend Sinister. Only miss was the Expendio de maiz; thought the flavors didn't quite work. Also ordered the baklava, which was ok. Overall a cute spot!

My family friend and I came here earlier this evening around 5pm and were able to snag seats at the bar as it was pretty quiet. It seemed like all the tables had been reserved already for the evening, but we enjoyed the bar. The bartenders were great and friendly. We each ordered a drink and they were delicious. My friend ordered the Spanish Bombs and I ordered the Perfect Prescription. For food, we ordered the pear salad, the mushroom kebab and the prawns and everything was seasoned and cooked so well. By the time we left, the place was packed with people, but we were able to take our time with eating and drinking and never felt rushed. Little Rascals is great for a drink with a friend or a date, and I would absolutely come back here again!

Little Rascal could easily be a 5 star establishment. They have just about everything going for them; a super cute and welcoming exterior, the interior decor is lovely and well thought out, cocktails are great, music is on point and... they have a great outdoor space out back! There are a handful of different nooks to sit at - choose based on your mood - order your cocktail based on your mood. Yes, the ambiance here is a vibe. First time we visited, we scooped up a cozy window seats - just as you enter, you'll see the first and only table on your right. That's the one. Directly in front of the bar. The drinks were on point - we ordered multiple rounds - the cocktails were consistent and delicious. We also ordered a couple of bites; fries and hummus. Simple but good. Second time around was a bar seating kind of evening. This is unfortunately where a star comes off. The bartender. He didn't want to talk or give information about the cocktails, like it was a huge effort on his part. He barely responded, he was cocky and a bit condescending the little that he did speak. I had a couple of martinis my first visit - they were great, but this time the charred lemon oil was left out of the cocktail. The lack of an ingredient made for a very basic martini. I'm interested in a well crafted cocktail, what goes into it and appreciate when a bartender has ideas around a cocktail I might enjoy. This guy? Crickets. We had 2 drinks and left. Will I go back? I absolutely will, but will make sure to sit at a table to avoid the Grinch. You should too.

Food - particularly the mushroom dish, creative cocktails, and friendly staff - all great!

One of my new favorite places to grab a drink. The interior is spacious, breathable, intimate, and nice. The drinks were absolutely delicious, and the service, friendly and accommodating. I got this drink with lychee, raspberry, mint, and it was SUCH a treat - one of the best tasting drinks I've had in a long time. Like, I will remember this for a while. Refreshing, sweet like candy (but not saccharine) and the subtle hints of all the flavors kind of running through, well-married together. My friend got the drink with szechuan peppercorn which was a nice touch but wasn't too mouth-numbing. There were a lot of other components so it was hard to single out the szechuan peppercorn but it was definitely there. There are so many creative drinks on the menu as well, including one that has fruity pebbles inspirations to it that I will get next time I return (which I plan on). They have a lot of housemade ingredients as well, which is a great sign.

Turkish food with a fun vibe. Good service! A very fun spot for a group hang! By day, there's a fun patio where you can brunch. Food is tasty and well seasoned. I had the mushroom toast and my friends had the quesadilla for brunch. The highlight is the backyard patio, which is nicely shaded. I have been here at nighttime for the cocktails, which I don't remember being particularly good or bad. All in all, a solid spot!

This place is a vibe- so cozy and intimate! The cocktails are all so unique. The Cosmic Debris ($18) is infused with fruity pebbles! The Constantine's Cosmos ($17) was a delicious fruity choice as well. The halloumi croquettes ($18) were average. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside and this would be a perfect place to catch up with friends. Overall, a great cocktail bar!

This place does not miss! I stopped by with 4 friends after completely exhausting ourselves like children at Ferox gym. We decided to undo our labor with a cocktail. I had the el cantinero with a beautifully smoked rosemary shrub. Other drinks my friends had: moss Adonis (adult fruity pebbles cocktail), and Hugo disco (alcoholic beet juice). My friend had another cocktail that I forgot the name of, but she was very refreshed by it. Anastasia was amazing as always! I encourage everyone and their little friends to take a road trip here

Loved every second of my life inside here. We ordered caviar, cheeseboard, halloumi croquettes and a variety of cocktails. Everything about the experience was great, including the bartenders.

Lively and cozy spot, love popping in for a post dinner drink Only complaint is that some of the cocktails are pre made, so making substitutions can be a bit tricky

Great bar with sophisticated, creative cocktails featuring unusual spirits and flavorings, often riffs on classic cocktails. Super friendly bartenders and comfy vibe.

Little Rascal is a hit! Will definitely be back. My friend and I always pick new spots to try, tonight he insisted on here, and I'm so glad he did. This place is thoughtful, tasty, and lovely. Beautiful environment, props for the blue bathroom and nice paper towels. The drinks were exquisite, don't play yourself and just order off their menu. El Cantinero (I believe it was called) is the 11/10 perfect spicy mez/teq drink, pink peppercorns give it a unique spice beyond the average jalapeno marg. They make and do everything themselves, and it shows. The bartender tonight was friendly and helpful with menu suggestions, he handled the work of fine cocktails and crowd like a champ. All in all, can't wait to come back.

Decided to stop by after work with my sister and friend. The ambiance and decor was definitely well though out to be formal but relaxing. It was Friday after 6pm and this place was packed! There was no where inside to sit so we went to the back outside for quick drinks. Other then it being cold that day, the wait staff was attentive and the drinks were GREAT! They were beautifully decorated and the fact that they tasted good is always a plus! Definitely would recommend to anyone in the area but if you are going Friday and Saturday evening it will be packed! We will probably come back to try out the food next time.

My husband and I stumbled upon this little bar while walking from Williamsburg to greenpoint one evening. Lovely Art Deco decor with a curved bar, seats with chair backs, and stained glass accents. I got the Rascal martini, which had nutmeg oil and was a little sweeter than a normal martini but well balanced. My husband had the Negroni, which he liked. A nice little find. Also - they have a great backyard area. Super comfy seating and lots of fans in the summer!

Is it possible for a place to have no vibe? The backyard at Little Rascal might be just the place. No music. No view except that of other uninspired patrons and a red brick wall. Fake turf. Real mosquitoes. Good drinks, to be fair. The flatbread could have been ever so slightly more toasted. The front bar/restaurant is a far better bet. At nighttime...

Came here on a Friday night which was the first warm night of the year and everyone and their mother was out and all the bars were full. Little rascal promptly seated my group of 3 at the bar. Pros: ambience was very nice. Great for a date or a night out with friends. The back patio is very pretty. We asked the host if we could get seated at a table once something opens up and he moved us to the patio soon after. Cons: when we were seated at the bar, my friend ordered a glass of Prosecco. The bartender (Keith?) poured her a glass but it got very foamy so he stopped and said "Dw I'll top you off." Before the foam settled, the host moved us to the patio. Once we got there, the foam settled and we saw there was less than half of the glass had prosecco in it. I mentioned to our waiter "hey the bartender said he would top off the Prosecco but we moved here" and he said "oh okay let me talk to keith." Disappears and never comes back. 30 minutes later I flag down the same waiter when he was seating someone at the table next to us and asked him about getting topped off and how my friend never got the full glass and again "oh okay let me talk to Keith about it." And never came back. Still ended up paying the full price for less than half a glass of Prosecco.

Up there with the best cocktail bars you'll find. Craftsmanship, detail, precision, scenery, decor, and personality.

Best experience! Loved the vibe and the food, staff was amazing. We had chicken kebab meatballs cauliflower and cheese board. Highly recommend

Great atmosphere and cocktails. You can tell that the menu is professionally put together by mixologist. They have a food menu which we'll be trying on our next visit. We are here on a sunday night and the music sound level is perfect to gather with friends and chat. Friendly and professional staff.

Great house-made cocktails. Creative and made with in-house infusions and top shelf spirits. Great atmosphere. great food (mezes) - try the halumi croquettes or the truffle salt fries. Do not miss it.

Nice vibe in here. Bartenders are cool, good spot to relax with friends and have a decent drink.

Fancy late night basic everyday Brooklyn cocktail bar? that may be true, but the service is down to earth. Stacy my server was kind, attentive and knew what I needed before I asked. Great cocktails!

Bartender couldn't be more of a jerk if he tried. Genuinely feel bad for the servers, who don't look like they enjoy working there. Every drink I ordered was met with teenager-like passive aggressiveness and he definitely looks old enough to know better and behave like an adult. wouldn't go back, even if the drinks were on the house. Advice to management: reboot and hire people who actually want to work there. Advice everyone else: go somewhere else, there are plenty of other wonderful neighborhood bars, and cocktail joints in the area.

My friend and I have been conducting food and drink adventures in Greenpoint and this spot had been on our list for a while so we finally stopped in Saturday afternoon (around 3:45) for some backyard cocktails! I will certainly have to go back in the winter for some inside dining (especially now that they have an incredibly delicious looking menu) because the inside is what my architect's aesthetic dreams are made of - absolutely stunning, beautiful, retro, modern and classic all at the same time! It's a vibe I want my apartment to take on if only I owned it - one day! The backyard is truly perfect - we felt like we were chilling at a friend's place. The plants and lighting are simply perfect and they've created a truly special space away from the hustle of Franklin Street. There were two occupied tables when we arrived but by the time we left, the entire yard was full. Two families came in with very young babies as well as a dog and the space seemed so welcoming for both, which I loved! Since we intended to end our evening at a whiskey bar, I was eyeing the Cosmic Debris. I inquired with the server if it was on the sweet side and she said not really, so I gave it a go. It was perfect! Not sweet at all and quite refreshing. Not going to lie, I was intrigued by fruity pebbles-infused sugarcane extract, and I can never miss an egg white cocktail opportunity. The entire menu looked so good and I'm unsure I can ever deviate from this cocktail - maybe if we're coming for a multi drink afternoon, although the drinks are pricey ($18). My friend had the Luzina's Blue Jin which she truly enjoyed as well - love that they used my favorite gin, Hendrick's, for this one! Our server was attentive with filling our water glasses frequently which was much appreciated on a warm summer day! Cannot wait to go back and (maybe) try some more drinks. The table next to us ordered food and it smelled wonderful so looking forward to that as well!

Great drinks, nice atmosphere, but the music was very very loud. Not the best place for a first date.

if you are dining with more than four people, this restaurant is a disaster. I ate there on 12/31/22 for dry inner and after drinks and a few apps, they brought out the dinners for only four of the six people at the table. They said nothing about the other two entrees, so I figured they would be brought out Ty get away. Well, the waitress disappeared and more than 10 minutes went by with no food being brought out. I got up and walked to the other side of the bar and told two men working there who looked like managers and asked about the status of the other two entrees. I told them that two of their guests hadn't received their meals and it was now more than 10 minutes since the other people in my party had gotten their entrees. the two men said nothing. About five minutes later, one of the two entrees was brought to the table, not by our waitress or one of the managers. Nothing was said by the food runner about the other entree. More than five minutes passed (now 20 minutes after the four entrees first appeared) when the last entree was brought with nothing said, no apologies, no acknowledgment of the entrees being brought out 20 minutes apart, etc. When the waitress finally appeared, I complained about the delay in the good and how it prevented us from actually eating together. She stated that they can't bring out more than 5 entrees at a time. I told her it would have been nice to be told that ahead of time and that her explanation was insane as any good restaurant makes it a priority to have the food of the party brought to the table at or about the same time. Her attempt to justify what happened was incredible rather than own the horrific service and try to make it right. no such thing occurred. Later, one of the managers came over and poured us a drink on the house. No credit offered for the food not brought out. This restaurant doesn't appreciate its customers and treats them hooinly. I would never go back there again as I try to go the restaurants that appreciate their patroons and make it a priority to insure excellent service. This place doesn't care. The food and drinks weren't cheap for what they served and their utter disdain for their customers was disqualifying as a place to go back to. Their are many good restaurants in Greenpoint and Williamsburg with reasonably priced quality food who care about your dining experience. I would choose one of them - establishments that truly appreciate their patrons.
