Get classy, Bro: Bushwick Country Club in NYC

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

Things I like: drinking, drinking outside, drinking on the cheap, drinking with fellow-minded attractive single people. I tend to prefer bars where all of the above can happen, but finding a comfortable in-between is difficult. Usually bars that are super cheap are also lacking in atmosphere (which is, fine, whatever, but sometimes I want some goddamn ambiance) and bars with a great space and hot patrons are usually stuck up and expensive.

But Bushwick Country Club is different. It’s a dive, sure, but they put some thought into decor and they’ve got both a photo booth AND a great backyard featuring putt-putt. It’s not as intolerable as the Williamsburg bars that are closer to the water, and the drinks are pretty damn cheap – especially during happy hour, which runs ’till 8 and offers 2-for-1 on well, draft and wine.

They also have great beer-with-a-shot specials and give out free cheezballs to soak it all up.

Polina Yamshchikov - Flirt Poor

Polina is Siberian by way of Alabama, and therefore cannot pronounce "fire" or "iron" correctly but despite this can still woo men with her cooking skills and enormous Russian cheeks. She can usually be spotted on the streets of Brooklyn either yelling into a cell phone in one of five languages or swilling gin at an inappropriate hour of the morning.
