\"Sycamore<\/p>\n

There’s not many bars I can think of that double up as a flower shop, but the Sycamore at Cortelyou Rd, Brooklyn, NY 11218 can boast that that rare distinction.<\/p>\n

Named after the sycamore trees in nearby Ditmas Park, the bar offers a\u00a0temptingly\u00a0wide range of beers (with pints costing from $3-$8) plus bourbons, ryes, wines and whiskeys, and bar snacks.\u00a0There’s also the\u00a0option\u00a0to buy a ‘beer and a bouquet’ for $10, which is a nice touch.<\/p>\n

You can’t go wrong with Coney Island lager. I wish I’d nicked this glass though!<\/p>\n

The bar staff were friendly and welcoming, and the\u00a0client\u00e8le\u00a0was pleasantly mixed too.<\/p>\n

The back yard area – there’s also a separate live music\/performance area known as the ‘whiskey cellar, hosting less mainstream acts, with shows usually on a few times each\u00a0week.<\/p>\n

We drank rather a lot at this bar and rather enjoyed ourselves, so we’d definitely say it’s worth a visit of you’re after a quiet drink in a friendly tavern.<\/p>\n
