Bohemian Hall Beer Garden

August 11, 2008
Huge outdoor social area is this bar’s greatest feature. The beers on tap aren’t out of this world, but they are fairly quality European brews. 15 buck pitchers seemed par for the area. Even with all the space and seating, finding a spot for the three of us was difficult. Great place to go with a group of friends as long as you don’t the possibility of standing for a while. The food was excellent. The kielbasa went well with their beer selection, too. Completely different than most any other place in NYC.

Agree with most of what Peter said. Actually he said it all. In the summer this place is great. Used to go here a lot from college in the city with massive amounts of people because the outdoors is enourmous. A descent selection of German brews and has an authentic beer garden feel. Lots of fun and easy to get to by subway.

This place doesn’t have a great selection for some of us real beer geeks out there, however, it’s an amazing place to go with a few friends. They have your generic German hefeweizens and lagers. There’s most bottles you can get anywhere else with some others. There taps always change, but they always have Pilsner Urquell, Budvar (Czechvar), Hoegaarden, Erdinger, Spaten, Paulaner, Burgerbrau, Warsteiner, Staropramen and others. It’s a huge outdoor area, surrounded by high stone walls. Reminds me of a Renaissance Festival type place. The ambience is amazing on a cool summer night or crisp Autumn night. They have an indoor bar with about 10 on tap which vary, and a decent bottle selection. There’s also an outdoor bar just like the inside one, along with a hot grill for burgers, czech sausages, dumplings and some other great, inexpensive foods. If you go here it’s for a nice eveing with friends, not a night to find a rare brew or top quality trappist. A must for people in the NYC area.
