    Manhattan has lots of sports bars, and most feel about the same. The Commissioner has a laid back atmosphere and there are enough TV’s to watch the games. Great food, especially the special cheese sauce!

    What can I say except you will love this little bar. The staff and owner become your friends and have you talking and laughing for hours. It's friendly and family feeling is just what you need after a long day. The drinks are great and not expensive at all. Happy hour is dangerous but worth the risk 😂 especially as the prices are good.

    I’ve been to The Commissioner a few times for a pint but today I had the food. Holy smokes, I had no clue! I met the incredibly nice owner and he suggested Tenders with Ranch and Nasheville Hot dipping sauce and a side of tots. First of all, if the owner recommends something, just do it. The food was out super quick and cooked perfectly. Tots are easy to screw up, these were crispy on the outside and tiny potato clouds on the inside. I can’t even describe how good the chicken tenders were, how??? Just perfect. The other staff was also helpful and friendly and I’d go there everyday if I could. If you’re in Park Slope go to The Commissioner. If you’re not in Park Slope… go.

    This is one of the places I don't want to review so I can keep it to myself but I have to share that this bar feels like home. Incredibly friendly staff, great prices and comfortable seating with a photo booth to boot!

    Brendan is an energetic and enthusiastic owner. This was a great find for a Brooklyn visitor. It felt like a local place where everybody knows you, but is exciting to meet you. The "tots" are the best.

    went in for a local hang to find UNDERAGE girls being served drinks and shots by 30-year-old+ men. kids will be kids but the establishment should have better awareness and standards when it comes to underage girls/female identifying persons in their space and when those peoples’ safety are potentially at risk

    Fyi - the commissioner is having women's world cup watch parties for every usa match! the prices are super reasonable for drinks and food, and they are playing the matches on their outdoor tvs so you can see from their street lined patio. they even have the game sound turned on. it's such a party!

    Solid, no-frills bar with reasonable prices. Wish they would turn the music down a bit though. Good wings.

    I liked the place. Very attentive bartenders , decent pub food and interesting selection of beers. I was there during lunchtime when the bar was not crowded and I was surprised how fast the beer arrive after your order.

    Food was meh. Service was good. Cheap prices. Unfortunately, I did spot a large roach. No Guiness glasses for Guiness. Just kind of dissapointing

  • 5/5 Brad H. 9 months ago on Google
    The Commissioner makes the neighborhood better. Brendan is the nicest guy. The vibes are lovely. Solid for sports. The music on open streets days is great. Park Slope is better because this exists.

    Made a reservation for my birthday, we had a whole section to ourselves and we did not have to pay to hold it. Cheap, strong drinks and food was good. Waiters/bartenders were all very nice! Music was a bit loud though...will definitely come back!

  • 4/5 Olivia Del V. 2 years ago on Google
    I liked the atmosphere, but drinks are pretty simplistic. I was hoping for some greater variety in spirits as I was hoping to get a different spirit than the well but I couldn’t see any other options. The food was very very good. Would recommend the fried chicken. Would come back if in the area

    I love the drinks and the food, great to watch games. But when they have a live DJ, the music is to loud, the sound just gets completely distorted… you can’t really enjoy the game… otherwise, is a great place

    Neighborhood bar with a very friendly staff, and some of the best frozen margaritas. Also, the tots are a must!
