Merry Time Bar and Grill

Known For

Back-garden surprise tucked inside a reliably moody bar setting

Merry Time Bar and Grill balances a cozy nook interior with garden vibes that extend to a back area most first-timers don't find right away. The moody atmosphere makes it a natural date-night choice in Astoria — dim enough to be romantic, interesting enough to carry conversation.
