The Bell House
From the owners of Union Hall and Floyd comes this mammoth bar and music venue, converted from its former life as a printing press and fly-by-night shipping company. Outfitted in deep reds and rich golds, it coos warm holiday cheer year-round, making it the perfect place for couples, singles and Manhattanites looking to spend some time in Gowanus. 149 7th St between Second and Third Aves (718-643-6510, thebellhouseny.com)![]()

They need a drink!
From Cosmo girls to finance guys, these recent victims of cutbacks share their picks for where to buy yourself (or them) a cocktail (or two).
I can't believe that under Feature / Winter 2008 bar guide / Brooklyn Bars that Red Hook is not listed. How can you leave out Sunny's bar on Conover Street, and the new establishment of Botanica right up from Sunny's and Annabelle's across from Ikea with weekly jazz and r&b live performances. Moonshine at the enterance to the battery tunnel and Jalopy - the best music venue ever! Or have you listed it elsewhere - where?
