Henry Public

I just have to gush over the new bar in my neighborhood. I recently moved to Brooklyn Heights where there isn't too much of a bar scene so I was delighted when Henry Public opened a few weeks ago. Turns out a friend of a friend knows the owners (who also own Brooklyn Social in Carroll Gardens) and they are involved with theater which I think translates into the space - very theatrical, like a set. Apparently the place used to be an old TV Repair store but they've completely redone it and included so many lovely details.
