Cheap Drinks and Tiki Cocktails in a Warm Brooklyn Dive
A neighborhood bar pairs friendly energy with late hours and a small menu in Bushwick.
🍹 Happy Hour and Wings
Merv’s keeps its Brooklyn bar identity straightforward. The drinks run cheap, with tiki cocktails, beer starting at three dollars, and a happy hour that suits a casual neighborhood stop. Board games and pub wings keep the visit relaxed, Wednesday brings one dollar wing specials, and the small food menu and occasional drag brunch give the calendar a little extra range.
At 266 Irving Avenue, the bar opens at 5 PM Monday through Friday and at 2 PM on Saturday and Sunday. Closing time is 2 AM from Sunday through Thursday, and the weekend runs until 4 AM on Friday and Saturday, a natural fit for a night that starts with drinks and drifts. The atmosphere is basic and warm, with a friendly neighborhood feel and room to linger over a card game. Bring a friend, order the wings, and leave room for a second round.
