Bar of the Winter Week

We’re mentioned as one of the best Winter bars in PaperMag.com’s Word Up. In their “Bars That Bring That Heat” special they said “In Crown Heights, the garage-turned-beer-garden Franklin Park (618 St. John’s Pl., (718) 975 0196) has a new “annex” (they purchased the vacant hardware store next door), which has a copper fronted fireplace in the center of the room, toddies and Irish coffees, and a soon-to-come Ginger Root martini ($9).”

Ice Rinks and Nice Drinks

Franklin Park just got a nice shout out as one of the City’s best Winter bars:
“This chilled out Crown Heights beer garden from the brains behind Southpaw, the popular music venue in Park Slope, gets winter-ready with a new 2,000-square foot indoor annex, complete with a second bar and working fireplace. The bar has also begun serving hot toddies and Irish coffees for $6 a piece, but be sure to hit the ATM beforehand—it’s cash only.”
