Matchless

Go for the wings. Some of the best buffalo wings in the city. Incredible Mac and cheese. Pro tip: add buffalo chicken to kick it up a notch. Great beer selection and chill vibe. Also a good brunch spot.

Decent sized bar with a back room which has a small stage and tiny bar for bands to play. Has a mechanic shop theme from it originally being a mechanic shop back in days of yore. Service is pretty tight. Gets quite crowded on weekends, though. Food is great. Love stopping by here when I'm in the neighborhood but has been slowly attracting "those people" ever since it was featured on that show Girls. Still love going here regardless, though. Check it out if you're in the neighborhood.

Good selection or beers and cocktails, nothing fancy. Feels like a down-home dive-bar for punk kids, but has a mixed crowd. Young and old people from the neighborhood are there for happy hour, bands later at night tend to attract an edgier/younger group. Cool space indoors and out and definitely worth checking out for a solid happy hour near McCarren Park. Need to try the mac n' cheese next time I stop in!

Brunch is no joke. The menu will make you want to get everything. Draft selection is pretty good. Not beer snob good, but way better than average. Service speed is hit or miss for brunch, but comes with a smile. Weekend nights get rather packed, and getting a drink is kind of like playing twister to get to the bar.

Love the vibe here! Good beer selection and music. They have a DJ come for special events. There's only one bathroom though, so that's not fun. They have comedy shows in the back and there's a photo booth too.

One of the first bars I frequented after I started working in the area and it's sill one of my favorites. The wings are great. The mac and cheese is actually some of the best I've had anywhere. Nice selection of beers and always a good crowd!

A great atmosphere and friendly service make Matchless a great local bar to visit in Greenpoint. Located in an old auto repair shop, the bar has a mechanic motif from an all brass bar to a big car themed mural on the wall. There's also fuss-ball and a photo both to round out the atmosphere. Check the schedule online too as they feature local bands on the weekends. They have a very good selection of Brooklyn and New York beer on tap and offer a large brunch menu. We had some of the nearby Brooklyn and Six Point beers and our friendly waitress offered us free irish coffees as well. We didn't eat anything while there after trying the Peter Pan donuts nearby, but the smothered wings a nearby table ordered looked very good. Matchless definitely seems like the kind of bar you'd quickly become a regular at if you lived nearby. Great service and a great selection of drinks already have me considering going back.

food here is awesome, love the brunch, but I recall their kitchen getting really backed up the last time we were here and waiting a super long time for our food. it was delicious when it finally arrived. also, waitress seemed to have one too many responsibilities. maybe just overwhelmed from the kitchen backup?
