Sweet Polly

Tucked near the Barclays Center, this compact room aims for an exclusive speakeasy vibe. Because the footprint is small, securing a table can be a challenge. Visitor experiences tend to split: some find the spendy, creative drinks excellent—highlighting the Aviation cocktail—while others suggest skipping them entirely. The food menu of small plates similarly divides visitors, though the deviled eggs are a recurring favorite. Service swings from highly attentive to overwhelmed, making this a spot best suited for a flexible pre-concert drink.
