Super Power Features Tiki Dreams In Crown Heights

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

  • It’s time to venture up to Crown Heights for all your dollar oyster and tiki bar needs. While NYC has a whole slew of tiki-themed destinations (The Royal Palms Shuffleboard Club, Featherweight, The Happiest Hour, and Mother of Pearl), Nostrand Avenue deserves some tropical love — Super Power has over 100 kinds of rum with casual craft cocktails at a reasonable price
  • Why not experience beach vibes all year long with $10 concoctions like the Frozen Tiki White Russian, John the Beachcomber (after Don the Beachcomber who invented tiki), and the Slow Reveal — drinks are served in tiki cups and garnished with mini umbrellas
  • Co-owner Justin Olsen and his three partners bring their tiki expertise to Super Power. The decor is refreshing with palm tree-covered wallpaper and colorful accents. Head over for happy hour and grab a bite to eat off the snack menu — go for the pulled pork sandwich, banh mi hot dog, and nachos

Owners Justin Olsen, Hunter Fradkin, Keith Ward, and Patrick Britton all worked together at the Gowanus Yacht Club in Carroll Gardens. The Yacht Club team, minus Keith Ward, went on to open the Bearded Lady in Prospect Heights, where the tiki dream sparked. In an interview with Brooklyn magazine, Olsen mentions they would often experiment with Super Power’s cocktail menu over at the Bearded Lady
