Sunny's Bar

A knickknack-covered Red Hook saloon that's been around in some form since the 1890s, Sunny's keeps its dive-bar ethos with cash-only service and no-frills nights. The backyard patio and live bluegrass jam sessions in the back room draw regulars and visitors from anywhere taking in the neighborhood. Reviewers call it a community staple that's everything a dive bar should be, though the music can get tough to hear when it's packed.
