Nice little spot. They're still working some things out -- no credit card machine yet, so cash only, and when I got there at 7pm they didn't have any food yet, but eventually they got some chips and salsa and bbq meatballs. There were two flatscreens, people playing on the one pool table, and drink specials ($4 margaritas and 2-for-1 Coronas). It's a nice chill vibe, and Anthony Mackie was actually behind the bar serving drinks. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/nobar-awning-up#post-734503 Sat, 25 Jun 2011 22:41:11 +0000 xlizellx 734503@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>according to their facebook, they're open!

Then fb page said they were opening "soon" in April and now we dont know when it will open.</p> <p>I suspect they are waiting for their liquor license.

He'd mentioned about doing something when we ran into him a few months ago, but didn't say what it would be. Looks like there is a lot of stuff going on on the southside of Nostrand. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/nobar-awning-up#post-730427 Wed, 04 May 2011 09:45:32 +0000 Ben 730427@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>The papermag article linked to above says they will open this month. Even more interesting is this quote:</p> <p>"He's already planning further neighborhood investments across the street; he's opening a speak-easy-style wine bar and performance space called InTheNO"</p> <p>So it looks like even more is coming to this area in the near future. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/nobar-awning-up#post-730335 Mon, 02 May 2011 12:02:51 +0000 Trumystic 730335@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>Hey Nostrand Park I think you misread the page though I am not positive (without having a screen shot from previous readings).

Given how nice Ms. Dahlia's is, I wouldn't expect anything but another quality establishment. Word is they will be opening very soon as well.</p> <p>Just like on this end of Nostrand, there is a lot of stuff going on on that end of Nostrand. In addition to the new addition of Voodoo, the Golden Krust and the Trinidadian restaurant, Melanies, recently got really nice makeovers. There is now a Checker's. An Indian restaurant. A new wine bar. A nice spa. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/nobar-awning-up#post-729215 Wed, 13 Apr 2011 22:43:00 +0000 Ben 729215@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>Just saw that the space where NoBar was originally going to open (corner of Nostrand and Halsey) is looking like it is about to open as a bar as well.

For decor he should take a card from the back room at Gureje- that does a good job with afrocentric art. But the wood that I can see of the bar is lovely and it generally looks swanky based on the pics. According to interviews Mackie actually built the bar ( if so he's fine and has mad skilz yo!!!)</p> <p>Anyway I will be excited to grab a few drinks when it opens. </p> http://brooklynian.com/forum/crown-heights-and-prospect-lefferts-gardens/nobar-awning-up#post-727591 Mon, 28 Mar 2011 21:45:11 +0000 NostrandPark 727591@http://brooklynian.com/forum/ <p>I'd posted a pic in another forum, but it's worth posting here too: <img src="http://nostrandpark.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/NoBar-Gets-An-Awning.jpg"> </p>
