Battery Harris Features Caribbean Vibes Under The BQE

[tw-divider]The Scoop[/tw-divider]

  • Battery Harris — a Williamsburg craft beer and cocktail bar that honors the Rockaways and all things Caribbean — could be your quick island escape (under the BQE) with beachy decor, adult slushies, and a menu of jerk-spiced snacks
  • Owners Etan Fraiman and David Shapiro brilliantly thought to install a slushy machine (it was about time someone thought outside the strawberry daiquiri box) and create expert frozen drinks to cool down New Yorkers; the frozen dark and stormy sells like crazy (five spice ginger reduction, fresh lime, Gosling’s rum float) for $11, or house cocktails like the D.F.D (bourbon, maple, lemon, topped with house IPA), and the Ultimate Warrior (roasted jalapeño infused tequila, rhubarb, pineapple, and lime)
  • You’ll have to try the jerk wings, Battery burger, and baked patties; combat the heat with their selection of 20 draft beers
