    Found my new happy hour spot: Ainslie Bowery 🍸 Wed/Thu/Fri 5-7pm + Sun 4-7pm, indoor and outdoor seating! Perfect happy hour vibes at an amazing price: • $12 cocktails (Midnight Daydream, Botanical Spritz, St. Germain Spritz) • $8 wine, $6 beer • $10 wood-fired 10” pizzas (six flavors) • $9 wings, $8 burrata, $6 fries Bonus: their honey deuce cocktail isn’t on the happy hour menu, but it’s worth ordering anyway! No need to go to Flushing for the US Open version, and it’s cheaper here too.

    I came here for my bridal luncheon and from the moment everyone arrived the staff was incredibly accommodating. The food was delicious as always and the drinks definitely matched our crews vibe! The level of consistency that I experience at Ainslie Bowery is why we always come back! Thank you Ainslie fam!

    The food, the server were amazing but we had an horrible experience with the owner, he was absolutely rude with our group and unreasonable. If wasn’t a Saturday and we had a 7 people group we would have left without even eat there. The rest of the night was good, thanks to the stuff that helped out, but really, hope you never have to meet the owner of the place.

    The waitress disappeared for 40 minutes on the table, preventing us from being able to receive our last round and they also did not comply with the full 90 minutes of bottomless drinks

    This place ended up being a last-minute option for my birthday dinner and I was not disappointed. I had a late-night reservation at 10:45pm due to a photoshoot prior. I'd recommend reserving an earlier time since when my group (7) arrived, we had to order everything fast since the kitchen closes at 11pm. They check ID at the door but it's nothing crazy (my group's ages range from 19-23). Decor looked amazing at night with the dim lighting. It was kind of hard to read the menu, but that's not really an issue. Music was also kind of loud. Prices are generally affordable, and food came out fairly quick. We were seated for maybe 1 hour and 10 minutes. Food was good. I'd personally recommend the hot honey pizza, penne alla vodka, and cacio e pepe. I wouldn't get the calamari again though; it was kind of cold and needed salt. They gave me a tiramisu for my b-day dessert. Bill was $476 for 7 people. Honestly, not bad, and would go back.
