Union Hall

The bar area is nice, very lowkey and good for conversation; the staff are all nice. I went here because my friends and I bought tickets to see a comedy show in the basement; it was sold out, but it was insane how many people were there considering there were only 50-ish tickets for sale. Doors for the show opened at 7, we got there at 7:15, and there were so many people that there was not enough standing room to see the show. We could only get standing room right next to the door, and even so the door wouldn’t have had enough room to close completely because we were legitimately blocking the hinges, half-outside of the basement. We got stamped, tried to tough out the standing situation, but ended up leaving by around 7:30. It was so unenjoyable to be in there, aside from it definitely being a fire hazard, that we left. I don’t know how the venue allowed this situation to get as out of control as it did. I think that the venue should sell the tickets directly in the future so they can track the attendance and cap it after a certain number. There were no less than 120 people downstairs, it was a dangerous situation at worst, and a disaster at best. Like I said, the staff were nice. I’m sure the entertainment was great, I just hoped that my group would have been able to actually be in the room for an event that we paid to attend. 2/5 for poor event planning, everything else was good or passable

We stopped here for a quick drink and I wish we could’ve stayed longer. The cold brew espresso martini was so good. One of the best ones I have tried. The bartender was really nice and fast service. In less than 1 minute we had the menus, waters, and he was making the martini. We will return!!!

If I lived in a brooklyn, specifically near the barclay center or further out, this would be MY SPOT. I had never gone here for a show before and the downstairs area is quaint and adorable. Fits about 80-100 people. Went for a book launch/comedy show and it was spectacular. Prices on food and drinks are relatively cheap and the staff is super accommodating. Love the shuffle board and the old school library vibes when you enter. So far my experiences are 3/3 and it’s also pretty close to several trains!

I’ve only ever came here for karaoke. But it’s an awesome venue. The bartenders are chill and nice. Karaoke is a great time every Friday. And Jay tremendous always brings the energy and makes us smile.

Hosted an after party for my wedding here and it was fabulous! Staff, especially Nora, were so helpful in getting everything set up and it was all ready for us when we arrived. Great drinks and communication all around! So happy to have ended our weekend here!

We had a small private event at Union Hall on the “raised platform” for our wedding weekend and we were so pleased! Nora – the general manager – was our point of contact for organizing the private party. Nora was prompt to provide information, describe the food & catering options (including concerns about dietary restrictions), and explain the options available to us for an event bar tab. We had Union Hall provide a large amount of food for our guests including mini cheeseburgers, French fry platters, hummus & vegetable platters, and pretzel bite platters. The food was enjoyed by ourselves and our guests, with not a single piece of food leftover! We had requested food come out in two “waves” and when the first wave was quickly finished, Nora and the Union Hall team were flexible and able to accommodate an earlier start to the second wave of food which was greatly appreciated! We opted to distribute drink tickets to our guests which they redeemed at the bar. This worked very well for our guests who had no problems redeeming them at the bar. Overall, we would highly recommend booking Union Hall for any semi-private events you’re hosting in Brooklyn! Between the thoughtful staff, great food and drinks, and bocce ball, it’s the perfect location for a laid-back party!

Vibey bar with a great small venue downstairs. Comedy, book launches, who knows what you’ll find!

I went there for the LA comedy relief night. I was surprised by the interior of this place. It looks like a country club! Huge games to enjoy, a wide bar, comfortable couches like you’re in some mansion, and an event place to throw your comedy gigs and acting skills! It’s a great venue to throw your gigs at for sure!!!
