Brooks 1890

Celebrating 130-plus years, Brooks 1890 is a staple in Long Island City. Enjoy drinks at the long wood bar and the more than standard fare in a casual, old-fashioned setting. The menu includes Italian favorites like chicken Parmesan, fettucine with seafood and lasagna, which arrive in generous portions, or indulge in a hearty ribeye steak or half-pound burger. And the options don’t stop there, with fish mains as well as salads and sandwiches, plus a dozen cocktails (a baby blue martini and mango cosmo among them), an impressive wine list and 10 beers on tap at any given time.
