Bar hopping on a weekday afternoon in Sunnyside, Queens

Pub Crawl NYC enjoys hanging out in Sunnyside.  It had been a while, so on a recent weekday afternoon, we ventured over there to hit some spots along Queens Blvd and Greenpoint Avenue.  Below are the highlights:

Molly Blooms at 43-13 Queens Blvd, this location is the old Flynn’s Inn.  Molly Blooms has a Victorian theme going.  Small outdoor area in the back. 12 tap beers and 18 bottled beers offered.  Fairly simple bar food menu.

McGuiness’s at 44-23 Queens Blvd.  A comfortable neighborhood corner bar.  Six tap beers.  As the name suggests, it’s an Irish bar.

Bliss Street Station at 47-02 Greenpoint Avenue.  Another Irish pub offering six tap beers and decent pub grub.  Fairly sizeable dining area also.

Greenpoint Lounge at 43-22 Greenpoint Avenue.  Probably the diviest of the five pubs we visited this day.  Long bar area followed by a pool table toward the back and a small outdoor area in the back.

Bantry Bay Public House at 3301 Greenpoint Avenue.  From the looks of the outside, it looks dive-y, but rather pleasant on the inside with both a sizeable bar and dining areas.  I’m unsure if this section of Queens is still Sunnyside or Long Island City.  Perhaps it’s on the border.  If you have any thoughts on this debate, please share!

Good times await in Sunnyside’s bars, definitely worth a trip if you are looking for something slightly different.  Please share your thoughts on this excursion.
