Great place for a cocktail before a show! It was a fun little spot with excellent service considering how busy it was!

Hollow Nickel is a charming neighborhood bar and restaurant nestled in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn. Just a stone's throw away from Barclays Center, it offers a selection of craft beer, whiskey, cocktails, wine, and classic American fare.
What sets Hollow Nickel apart is its unique backstory inspired by the 1953 Hollow Nickel Case. Three friends established this establishment in August 2012, infusing it with a touch of intrigue and history.
Guests can enjoy happy hour seven days a week until 7 pm, relishing signature dishes like the HN Classic Double Burger, Spicy Smash Burger, and Breakfast Burger. The hand-cut fries, fried pickles, and wings are also crowd favorites to complement the extensive drink menu.
