    One of my biggest pet peeves is a bartender who fails to acknowledge a customer standing right in front of them. It to me is one of the most disrespectful acts in the service industry. I visited here on Friday evening, and was greeted warmly by the hostess. The bar was less than packed. I then proceeded to order drinks for myself and a friend, so I went to stand at the bar placing my hand on the bar and looking dead into the bartenders eyes to acknowledge I wanted to place an order. As I tend to respect a bartender's craft when they are making drinks and not bark at them, I waited. The bartender then went on to turn his back, continue shaking his shaker, turn back around, and do everything it seemed in his power to avoid eye contact and take my order. I stood there for over 7 minutes, fixed on him waiting for him to give the slightest acknowledgment as he proceeded to make other drinks, til it became so apparent that I was annoyed, that the other bartender standing at the far end of the bar came over to take my order. I then proceeded to give her my drink order, but then thought to myself, "nah, im good." I wouldn't want to give my money and have tips pooled with such a poor excuse for service bartender. If it's not your night, call out, go home. But if you're on the clock, have the decency to acknowledge a customer standing directly in front of you. If you prefer customers to bark at you, thats fair. Just wear a sign next time.

    Delicious cocktails, food and love the design inside. There’s a pretty plant wall that’s simple but adds a lot in terms of mood and ambiance. Went for Happy Hour the other day for the first time. Had a great time and loved my drink. We also ordered some nibbles to go along with our drinks and everything was delish. I think we had the beet salad and hummus? I forgot. But remember loving the flavors. Can’t wait to try it again.

    Hello!!! Visiting from south florida we found this golden bar far away from tourist new york city areas where they are still learning how to treat customers. We had a table inside (25% capacity) by the plant wall close to the window... Ordered two orders of empanadas (3 per order) which were very tasty. Drinks by killer bartender NAZ were top notch, no words can describe the style and dedication. Just look at the pics people!!! See yall soon on my next trip!!!

    Cocktails are exquisite but the true star of the show is the kale and artichoke dip. I get it every single time!

    The cocktails are phenomenal and out of the ordinary . Service can be iffy but they are always courteous, you can tell they need a extra hand at times . Happy hour is awesome, I really miss the pesto Mac they used to have ,that was for sure a banger. This place has a beautiful decor as well. Highly recommend!

    I really liked it here! At first I thought it was too noisy but I realized I was just being silly. It's a very cozy environment to bring your partner or some friends to chat and have some drinks. Our waiter was very friendly and very attentive. I originally was going to eat anything but then I decided to order the grilled cheese and I'm really glad I did. The bread was pretty crunchy but overall it was really good and it was great with the pesto sauce on the side. Would definitely recommend coming here! The drinks were pretty pricey but overall good.

    Excellent little cocktail bar on the edge of Prospect Heights behind Barclays Center. Cocktails were creative and delicious as was the queso fundido. Waitress was super nice and extra friendly. Great experience overall and will definitely be back. EDIT: Staff here have ALWAYS been super nice! And the cocktails are consistently tasty!

    Hands down one of the best cocktail bars in Brooklyn and NYC. Amazing drinks, hip vibe and atmosphere, cool decor, music and so much more. But what makes this place really special is the incredible staff who make sure everyone is taken care of and having a great time. Special shout out to Joaquin the manager and Blair the bartender! They’re an amazing team and they make it look so effortless. And they also make the best whiskey sour I’ve ever had….highly, highly, highly recommend!

    I've had a bad experience at the bar where I've received unpleasant and rude service - it's not normal to spend 15 minutes trying to flag down a bartender, where there are 3 of them behind the counter and only 8-9 people at the bar. Furthermore, they didnt just do the check after being flagged down and needed to be reminded again. A 2 minute procedure took 20-25 minutes in total to accomplish. When you're on a date it feels downright humiliating to be ignored for so long - so think twice about bringing a date to this establishment. To the manager who chased us for 2 blocks because I didn't leave a tip: no, the standard tip for alcohol isn't 20%. Here's a tip: if you spent less time chasing customers on the streets and more paying attention to how your staff do service, you'd get better results and better tips. And better reviews.

    Fantastic drinks and an even better staff. We are new to the neighborhood and the lovely staff gave us lots of tips on places to enjoy in Park Slope. Thank you for the great service!

    So everything here is great, including the service. But every now and then you’ll get a night where there just isn’t enough help. So you will find like 20 minutes post-drink, sitting at the bar without someone checking in you. BUT, the cocktails are sensational. Bites are good too. It’s all worth it. The service is good like 90% of the time. And I have been here like 10 times and just once they didn’t have enough people. The people worming there themselves are great

    Sweet Polly is a great addition to the area. The space is cozy and romantic for couples yet can accolade smaller groups for a nice hang. The food was very good and the mixologist concocted some really nice drinks. The only issue I had was with our mixologist, although the drinks were good, he had a slight tude or maybe just lacked personality. Would certainly go back!

    Update - I gave this place another try and have loved it. I think they made staffing changes. The drinks are so good. Cocktails were good but service left much to be desired. This will be your detriment. Willnot be back and i live 3 minutes away.

    It's really nice cocktails in a cozy spot. Great vibes for date night. Cocktails are gonna cost you but I think they're worth it on the right occasions.

    first time there, loved the cocktails and ambience. unfortunately, the young lady at the door was borderline rude and very unwelcoming. i noticed same attitude given to other arriving clients. some ppl arent cut for hospitality. we almost left after being “greeted” like that. the server w the red beanie hat was nice and explained the drinks to us

    A mellow neighborhood spot with cute atmosphere, friendly service, and great cocktails. We went on a Friday night around 9pm and were greeted once we walked in by a hostess who asked if we had a reservation, which we didn’t, but she led us to the last two open seats at the bar which were perfect. The bartender was friendly and helped with questions we had about the drinks, and the cocktails were delicious! Will be going back.

    My favorite local cocktail bar, hands-down. It can sometimes be a little hard to get a seat, and it can be little bit dark, but the drinks are always really inventive and the staff are super friendly and helpful!

    Great small cocktail bar with tasty small bites and lovely drinks. The interior design is gorgeous and very discrete. Great place for a date! Oysters are really yummy as well.

    Good cocktail bar that sits a little on the expensive side. But the inside is beautiful, and the drinks are fairly inventive. Leaf through the menu every time — they sometimes do specialty drinks themed around the events going on at the neighboring Barclays Center.

    We absolutely love this spot. We’ve been coming here for a few years. Great drinks, friendly service and a solid happy hour menu.

    The lady there seem to having a bad day. Me and my brother were there and got 4 drinks, she felt the need to be entitled amd say because we ordered 4 drinks we should tip but tips are only for decent to pleasurable service and she was just nasty and wanted us to order and leave her be. We left a 10% tip and she didn't see cash tip and went off on us and bring up she had a 3 yr old to take care of and stuff. She kinda ruined the experience for us and said she was gonna tell her boss not to let us back in. Don't even wanna go back after that anyway
