Sunken Harbor Club

Sunken Harbor Club sits up a staircase above Gage & Tollner in Downtown Brooklyn, a small, dim, wood-paneled room strung with ropes and buoys under a pirate-ship theme. The cocktail list plays along with names to match the decor, but the drinks themselves are seriously built, down to a housemade banana liqueur. There's no reservation book, and the room is small. Come early to grab a seat before it fills.
