a cozy supper at brooklyn public

On a recent chilly autumn evening, I found myself out and about with friends in Fort Greene in search of a cozy to grab a bite. In the mood for a good pint of beer to warm us up, we ended up at Brooklyn Public House, a cozy Irish-style gastropub located in a beautifully-renovated brownstone on DeKalb between Clermont and Vanderbilt. Drawn to their comfort-food menu, my friends enjoyed their fish & chips and my hearty turkey chili was just what the doctor ordered to stave off the cold. A snappy Coney Island Albino Python topped it off nicely.

Originally built in the mid-1800’s, the Public House hosted a candy store during Prohibition, and its current owners now display a number of historical artifacts to admire while you chow down: original tin ceilings, vintage newspapers and posters, beautiful vintage mirrors, and more. So charming to this vintage-loving Brooklyn fan!
