Small, local dive bar. Staff is friendly and inviting. Atmosphere is basic but warm. Food is limited small menu but tasty. Drinks are good. Not bad pricing either. Came for drag brunch. Had fun. Will definitely go back.

Dromedary is the definition of a safe space. My first time visiting I felt very welcome and was treated so kindly by every single staff member. The drinks are fantastic and the fries are top tier munchies.

Giving a second star because there were nice people who seemed like regulars.Staff was super not friendly and honestly made my group feel unwelcome even though we were low key and barely asked for much.Such a shame when the suburbs comes to bushwick and then pretends to be super open but really comes off as subconsciously racist. I wish I could say this was a rare experience but it’s endless in this new Brooklyn I barely recognize.

This place is so much fun for a night out for some drinks and fries. My girl friends and I love to come by on Thursday for karaoke or on a Sunday for their famous Drag Brunch! The drinks are strong and cute and oh so yummy!

Great food but unwelcoming bartender… as if they’re mad they have to serve you. I would go back for the food, but I hope a different bartender is there.(Pictured: Feisty Fried Pickles - $10,Scorpion Tots - $12,Double Hump Cheese Burger - $12,Goat & Honey Bacon Burger - $11,The Delightfully Delicious Chicken-Less (Vegan) - $12,Side Fried Pickles - $7,Vodka Martini - $11)Prices were great for the amount and quality of food!

Nice tiki bar in Brooklyn! I went toward the end of Covid regulations in NYC (May 2021) just when things were opening up a bit more. Our drinks were tasty and the place had a cool vibe. I especially liked controlling the Jukebox with our Spotify playlist. You have to pay to do it, but it was fun regardless.

Super dope neighborhood bar. Ive order (GREAT) burgers from here countless times, but finally decided to walk inside. So glad I did. The decor is super chill, like the city version of a Tiki Bar if that makes sense lol. The drinks were awesome. The bartenders helped me through the menu, as I was a tiki virgin. Overall good spot, definitely being a regular.

Actually this bar while deeper in bk is great! It has a large indoor space, with great selection of drinks. However proving feels like your in Manhattan.Drinks are strong and they have some funky specials with cool ways of serving then to you.Its well worth the travel and take a bunch of friends for a good night.

Went to Dromedary for the first time to attend a fundraiser hosted by a friend. The drinks were perfect, and the Poutine and Fried Pickles were delicious! The staff were all very helpful. The only downside was the 9 inch step I had to be carried up in my wheelchair.

I ordered the Frickin Chicken, They Flock Together (cocktail), and Boomerang Bowtie (cocktail).Both cocktails were delicious and balanced; strong, but subtly so.The Frickin Chicken sandwich was well worth the $11. I imagine some might think it a little small for the price, but it compensated perfectly with flavor and simplicity. A chicken sandwich is usually just a chicken sandwich, but this is a chicken sandwich printed in BOLD letters.Social Distancing and adherence to City/State Guidelines should help anyone feel safe while dining here.

We went there last Saturday and I just have to say their burger was THE BEST burger I’ve ever had in Bushwick. It’s so juicy and the fries are perfect! They also have this cute looking cocktail in little flamingo floatie which you get to keep :)The locals are super friendly, great bar atmosphere.

Review №33

I dont know if its because of summer, but this place is quickly becoming my favorite bar in Bushwick. Its a tiki bar with indoor and outdoor seating, plus dog-friendly, plus the always amazing Duncans Burgers situated neatly in the back. The summer drinks are top-notch, Duncans high-falootin fast food is dope, and the staff are really great. I dont care how unmanly I look drinking a piña colada while having my cheeseburger in paradise.

So we came here today for my best friend birthday and definitely enjoyed ourselves. The performance was outstanding and worth the travel. What we didnt like is that we brought the Brunch bottomless mimosa which was $40 and It included a Dish which we didnt get because we ate before we arrived so we ordered fried & tater tots but was charged $40 pp & that wasnt stated on the menu ANYWHERE.. Anyway we might return to see the performers again they where a blast❤️💃🏽& the energy was awesome

Food is always tasty and the drinks aren’t bad either. Cheap beer and tiki drinks available. The cheese curds are a must try. All the burgers are great. Everything on the menu is done well. The drinks have fun cups sometimes too. Staff is usually friendly and attentive. TouchTunes available earlier in the day usually.

Review №37

Went there last night for dinner and drinks. The drinks were not great, my girlfriend got a shot with a pickle back and she almost threw it up, it was not pickle juice.When it came to the food, we both got a vegan options. My vegan burger was not cooked and my girlfriends chicken sandwich was hard to bite through. Overcooked, rubbery, and tasted foul. We were hoped to be saved by our old bay crinkle fries, which had zero seasoning on them and were stale. It was a super disappointing night and the food made us sick.The place wasnt even busy and few orders were coming out, but the bartender said they were slammed in the kitchen. Which made no sense. There was only 4 other people in the restaurant and maybe 2 to go orders i saw come out.We have been coming here since they opened and have always spoke highly of this place to friends encouraging them to come try it. So this was very disappointing to us.

This place is adorable. The murals on the outside welcome you to a cozily lit, well decorated interior. They have 2 pinball machines, a stage, and outdoor seating. Their events are frequent and interesting. The food is great which is actual how I first found them. Their smoked tofu is ridiculous. The owner and bartenders are all super nice and the drinks here are amazing. There can sometimes be a wait but its absolutely worth it.

Great place to come for a cheap beer or a fun tiki drink. The bartender Danielle was super nice and very engaging. They usually have karaoke on Thursdays which is super fun. The food is definitely above bar average, the cheeseburger is delicious. Definitely a fun place to hang out.

Review №47

Was here a few weeks ago. Good place for tiki drinks. Service is slow though even when you’re sitting at the bar and can clearly see they’re not busy. But it might be related to the next point: my white friend showed up before me and the bartender working that night didn’t ask him for a proof of vaccination before serving him. Then when I got there I had to show mine—which is fine, but it’s weird that he didn’t have to but I did. So if you’re Asian, you might experience a double standard in service and treatment from one of the bartenders. She was the woman working the bar on August 28th.

Review №48

This is a nice place. Love the open wall/doors to outside. We was there for a drag show. The show was great. Very entertaining. Loved it.The bar offered a brunch special with endless mimosas. But waited util the check to informus that the mimosas is a seperate charge per person. $40! But i just paid for finger food that comes with that. But not. Food was seperate from the pitch of mimosas.

Review №49

Came here last night with my 4 of my girls, we called to see if the kitchen was open and they told us we had 20 mins. We rushed over there and got there in 5 mins and the guy at the bar (Nick) was annoyed with us from the second we got there. Gave us a nasty attitude and told us you better order in 5 mins when we still were supposed to have 15 mins. Whatever, Ive worked in food service so I understand it can be frustrating but he clearly wanted us to leave from the moment we got there. We rush ordered our food and when it came time to order drinks, he refused to serve my friend because she only had a temporary photo of her ID (along with multiple other forms of ID and all of her cards that had her name on them) The most annoying part about that is that the bar was dead to begin with so it was weird for a little hole in the wall bar like that to refuse service. When he checked my ID he stared at it for probably a solid 30 seconds and stared at me and shook his head? It was weird I am 28 years old and definitely dont look under 21. Regardless, we stayed because we had already ordered our food and were hungry. I waited 30 mins for my drink and when I asked him about it he said I had never ordered it and then asked me if he had already checked my ID. I was so confused why he didnt want to serve us so bad. The drink was okay, the 3 stars are for the food which was really good. They have Vegan options which I was happy to see. When our food arrived he basically slammed it on our table and then didnt give us water until we were basically done with the food. I wish they wouldve told us that the kitchen was closed if they didnt want to serve us. We had to rush everything since we couldnt enjoy some drinks together and ended up going to another spot nearby for drinks. We walked up to the bar to wait for our bill and sat there for about 15 mins just waiting when the bar wasnt even busy for it to take that long, I dont even want to know what the service is like on a busy night. When he finally came over to us he skipped right over the itemized bill portion and when we asked to see it so we could see how much he tipped himself, he said he could e-mail it to us. Overall, the place has potential. The environment was cute, food was good, drinks are okay but they could definitely improve their customer service. I think if they brought in stronger employees this place could do really well. Maybe an additional bartender would help since Nick was so overwhelmed on a slow night.

Bartender greeted us wordlessly, handed me a cocktail menu then ignored us for 25 minutes. Midnight on a Friday, place was FAR from packed. Maybe 10 people outside, about 20 people inside. Left without placing an order. Typical of the too-cool spots in this town, where two people finishing an almost 20 hour day of work cant even sit down to enjoy a drink. First time and last time inside Dromedary. Too bad, we live blocks away, and the food is quite good. But I will NEVER bother coming back, and Ill be sure to tell others not to go. This wont be the only review.UPDATE: maybe instead of answering a Google alert at 1am, as the owner of this place you should spend some time training your wait staff in hospitality. Your apology is not sincere, as you never offered one. Also, this is not the first time someone has complained about being totally ignored at the bar in Dromedary.

Review №51

The moment I turned 21 this was the very first bar I ever step foot into. And, in all honesty this place is hands down my go to place and even my home. But lately me and my friends have encountered a rude bartender. We understand that bartenders should be tipped but I don’t understand why she feels the need to call us out, especially if she isn’t the one that made our drinks in the first place. We always tip OUR bartenders, especially if we had a good night. The bar over all is such a great place, besides our encounter with that bartender.

I enjoyed the atmosphere at this local bar a lot. Everyone was having fun and although it was a little noisy, not so much that you couldnt hear your friends. The tiki drink was not the best Ive had, but I would still give it another try. At the very least it felt like a place you can really spend some time and meet interesting locals while enjoying some cold drinks. Will go and give it another shot!

My absolute favorite bar in the neighborhood. Super fun and creative cocktails, a burger joint in the back, never too crowded, music isnt too loud, AND a variety of games! Usually everyone is pretty friendly here, but there is one bartender who is kind of rude, though I wouldnt let that deter anyone from checking it out!

No bar will ever make you feel more at home and taken care of than Dromedary. Best drinks, best food, best prices, best bar tenders, best friends. Period. A shining beacon of affordability and quality in a city where a can of beer can very easily cost you 15 dollars. Definitely the best place to spend an evening.

Used to love this place, went back last night for first time in 2 years. Vibe is different, service was BAD. Bartenders didnt acknowledge or say hi, wasnt busy. Just very unwelcoming. We left and went somewhere else. Menu is slimmed down, front door looked locked and closed. Sadly not the same as it was before.

Dromedary Bar have been doing an incredible job on dinners to-go for large groups for several weeks now. Their fun tiki-inspired cocktails are always delicious and the food is always a treat. They do a great job time and time again. Would highly recommend ordering dinner and cocktails to-go from Dromedary Bar and cant wait to dine in-person soon.

They have karaoke from 10 until 1 on Thursdays and free comedy on Sundays at 8:30 or 9. They deliver food as well and the riders are pretty fast within a one mile radius. Any further is only a slightly longer wait. Solid joint in the hinterlands of Bushwick... only a short walk to the train.

Review №67

I went on Sunday for the drag brunch. I ordered a breakfast burger with fries , and tbh , it was soooo delicious. Disclosure : when it comes to the pitchers, I’ve seen bigger for the price. However, if you participate in the brunch it is 3 HOURS.I do wish there were more pitcher options besides Bellini. When it comes to the wings, they are good, however , the sauce they put is overwhelming. It’s almost as if they just dipped the chicken and put it in the plate to serve. The decor and vibe is beautiful though it is a small and intimate space. So if you have a big group, do not show up at busy times or show up early if there is an advertised event. I live fairly far from Brooklyn , lol, but I would definitely come again with a friend for a chill time.The photo attached is a screenshot from a video I took.

Review №79

Cute space, well themed, well-decóred - overall good vibes. Was there for an I Heart Burlesque show - featuring a variety of burlesque artists and the event was sponsored by some rum company.My party and I arrived about 15 minutes before the show was scheduled and the space was pretty full. The food looked and smelled delicious, and judging by some of the other reviews, it probably tastes good too.That said, this place DEFINITELY has a management/service issue. I was originally going to write-off last nights experience as just a bad night but after reading MANY others review, there seems to be a pattern. There were 3-4 people behind the bar at any given time, however, only 2 were actively making drinks and they were not particularly responsive and worked really slowly. I mean, I get you have some complicated drinks on the menu, and thats fine, but at least acknowledge everyone else whos standing around waiting to make eye contact (also, if youre gonna have a major event with an influx of patrons, perhaps make a toned-down menu with easier cocktails? Just a management suggestion).The 2 other folks who were behind the bar were just there collecting and cleaning glasses - in fact one of them had to insist that they were only a bar-back and couldnt help with taking an order, or even splitting a $5 to make change. Like, youre (the venue) hosting an event - with the plan to make money and increase revenue - and then severely under-staff the bar, and have insufficient amount of bills in the register so that people could leave tips to their servers and the burlesque artists - thats just REALLY REALLY POOR PLANNING (and frankly undermines the point of having a SPONSORED event, and frankly suggests a deep lack of respect for your patrons).Then, to add insult to injury, it took 20 minutes (I wish I was exaggerating, but I timed it) for us to get acknowledged and have 3 drinks served. One of them was a Sazerac (the other two were simple, a vodka soda and scotch on the rocks) - the minute the bartender asked if I wanted it on the rocks or straight up, I should have just changed my order.If you dont know that a Sazerac is SUPPOSED to be served SUPER CHILLED and STRAIGHT, then you have NO BUSINESS MAKING THE DRINK. After I had clarified that Id like it super cold and straight, I received a *clear* drink, lukewarm, with a lemon twist (Ill take responsibility for this one - thats on me, I should have known better).It did NOT taste like a Sazerac. It wasnt a Sazerac. I drank it in silence, because I didnt want to deal with having this corrected and having to deal with the bartenders attitude when I eventually would get their attention again.Of course, the standoffish attitudes coming off the 2 bartenders who were actively making drinks didnt help (as if they were doing ME a favor for being there and I was annoying them with my drink order), but Im just chalking that up to being understaffed and overworked for the evening - but this does seem to be a pattern at this place.Overall, I like the space, but the service really puts a major ding on the experience. Unless this improves significantly, I dont really see myself coming back here.

I tried to get a drink and was ignored. Girl next to me waiting asked if she wanted to place bets on if we ever get served. Tried again an hour and half later when I piggyback off someones order. Made someone else order me fries.Vibe is chilled with good friends and food is greasy good.

Review №82

This tiki bar isnt phoning it in! Decor is tasteful and not overly kitschy. Good collection of tiki mugs on shelves. Pinball machines. Limited Outdoor Seating. Friendly staff. No freakin teevees, so that was good. Music was audible, but not too loud. A very chill environment.Tried 4 of their signature drinks: Dromedary, Frozen Flamingo, Welcome to Havana, and Mt. Kilauea. Dromedary is their mai tai variation, using cricket bitters!?!? Still, tasty. Mt. Kilauea was on happy hour and well worth it. Frozen Flamingo was tasty and came with the inflatable cup holder. Only the Welcome to Havana was a disappointment. Maybe just not my thing.Bartender was a young woman who could sling a shaker like a pro. Around 7pm, the bar was flooded suddenly with youngsters ordering cheap beer and vodka drinks. The bartender was overwhelmed and many of us who wanted drinks had to wait A LONG TIME (25+ minutes) just to order. Not the bartenders fault. Management should post additional staff earlier in evening.Will be back to enjoy this bar. Definitely a geek and nerd vibe here, and theres apparently burlesque once a month. Cant go wrong with tiki and burlesque.

Re
Review №84

As an owner, you should do right by your staff. You had a single bartender making signature cocktails during happy hour with no help. She was swamped. And because of this she won’t get everybody’s drinks in a timely fashion thus she won’t get tipped. You’ll get your money but she will suffer. Do better. Have a bar back. Have help for her.

I think my friends and I caught or spread COVID19 from this place back in March 2020. We all got sick, myself being the first.

I can say with the upmost certainty that the flamingo fries and chicken sandwiches alone will be enough to keep this seasonal depression at bay. Throw in those glorious cocktails and heat lamps and I might even forget for an hour that theres a pandemic.

Nice low key bar. Karaoke nights are the highlight.The bar reminds me of the mid 2000s Williamsburg vibe, thats a good thing!

Their bartenders are nice, drinks and food taste good but service is slow. This was my second visit but I left after nobody even took my order for 10 mins (bartenders were busy, I understand them). So, beware.

Get Your Panties In A Brunch might be the best drag show Ive ever seen in the city! Food was good & bar service was great. Highly recommend.

Place is all sorts of awesome. 90s hip hop blasting, French bartenders, cricket bitters in tiki cocktails, and random flicks projected on the wall. kudos to being as weird as Brooklyn is.

Normally I love this restaurant, they have great food and the customer service is usually great, usually being the operative word. On July 6, 2018 I placed an order via Grubhub. I was informed my order would be delivered in about 1 hr, which is typical and I would never complain about that. I waited and waited and after an hour and a half passed I have them the benefit of the doubt and figured it’s friday night, must be busy. Once it approached 2 hours with no contact however, I called the restaurant directly to track the order progress. At which time I was told by whomever answered the phone that they had attempted to deliver the order and made two attempts to call and contact as well as informing Grubhub who also apparently tried to contact and got no response. At that point I informed the gentleman that I had not received any missed calls or texts about my order. I asked the man to repeat the number they had on file for my account and sure enough it was correct so I’m not sure why I had no missed calls registered. I chose to contact Grubhub directly. Immediately after hanging up I placed a call to Grubhub and informed them of the situation. I was told by the representative that it stated that delivery had been attempted but that NO communication had been on the restaurant side or by Grubhub. After I concluded my first call with Grubhub, luck would have it that their customer service line called to let me know that the restaurant had tried to deliver but was unsuccessful. I asked the young lady if they had just received a call from the restaurant and she confirmed which would suggest that the man was dishonest about previously contacting Grubhub. This more than anything was what upset me and despite the great food, I WILL NOT order from this restaurant again. I am very disappointed with the customer service and hopefully the restaurant management can address issues like this so they don’t occur in the future.

This place has all the bones of a cool spot. !! Too bad that specific staff had such a ‘tude’. You were gonna be helped when they were damn good and ready - and you were meant to know it. So It’s off the list for a new regular spot. Movin on.Maybe not worth your time either.

Walking by I fell in love with the esthetics. Walked in and found a seat at the bar, but no one asked me if I would like to see a menu, I was waiting for 15 minuets.Not even a “I’ll be right with you”....I guess.The group of people that walked in 10 minuets later had drinks, I didn’t even get acknowledged.
