Smith’s Tavern
With Jackie’s on the way out, a lot of people are bringing up Smith’s as Park Slope’s natural successor for Lone Neighborhood Holdout, and with good reason. You can get a beer for $2 or under, the jukebox is decent, and its Yelp page is peppered with glowing reviews from locals alongside this one-off: “Had a beer here last night. There is a terrible smell here. Not sure what it is. I think the health department should come and find out. I think there is a dead animal here.” Funny as long as it doesn’t happen to you. Like most things.
