Dutch Kills - Long Island City

Craving a night of delightful cocktails, I sought out a charming speakeasy bar in NYC and discovered Dutch Kill Bar in Jackson Eve, Queens. My visit on a weekday evening proved to be a great choice, as it wasn't overly crowded. The cocktails, while not exceptional, were just right for a pleasant, tipsy experience. Opting for front seats with the bar in view was perfect for engaging conversations. Overall, Dutch Kill Bar lived up to my expectations for a cozy and enjoyable evening.

Great! Went here with froms for some drinks. A very prohibition-like atmosphere, with very little lighting and no windows. Drinks were fine as well as service. We didn't visit, but there was also a section with live music. Would recommend!

Best cocktail in queens and one of the top bars in the whole city

Ever since I saw the video with Jeff from Epicurious on YouTube, I had to come here and it didn’t disappoint. I came back here on a date (not successful), but I do highly recommend it for a date. The ambience is relaxed and intimate but also very personal and I can say the same about the drink. I had the Old Fashioned and it was perfect. I can’t wait to go back to Dutch Kills.

Loved the vibe and a cocktail I had, with a caveat that I only stayed for short amount of time. Tentative 5 star mainly to remind myself that I’d like to revisit this bar. One concern though is that this whole place seemed to have a layout of very thin and long space, which I think that makes it much more easily crowded and packed.
