Greenpoint, Brooklyn · bar
Want a credible neighborhood bar in Greenpoint that doesn’t pretend to be a rooftop club? Banks Tavern is your move. With deep-blue booths, artwork by local friends, a pool table and a backyard that clears out all the pretense, it leans into comfy and unforced. Expect solid drafts, a few casual bites until sold out, and a crowd that’s quietly happy to hang in the hood without showboating.
Happy hour runs Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
