The Penrose is a piece of Williamsburg transported uptown to 2nd Avenue. With a great drink menu and delicious beer battered fried-pickles, The Penrose is an obvious choice for this list. Add the fact that all of their food is locally sourced, the crowd here is impressively attractive in that uptown-hipster kind of way, and they make an amazing brunch. Check out this bar for a great time with a fun crowd.
