Frog Wine Bar
A natural-wine-forward Bed-Stuy bar with backyard seating, pool, pop-ups, and a loose modern-Brooklyn feel.
Why we ranked it a top bar:
At 358 Marcus Garvey Boulevard, Frog Wine Bar carries Bed-Stuy’s present-tense cool with a looseness that saves it from preciousness. Natural wine, backyard seating, pool, pop-ups: it has the grammar of a modern Brooklyn hangout, but the charm is in the mixture. It can be romantic without being delicate, lively without turning savage.
Who would like it: Bed-Stuy locals, wine drinkers, casual daters, pool players, and people who want a bar that can change mood by the hour.
Drinks: natural wine first, with a social rather than academic attitude.
Food: pop-ups may matter more than a fixed food identity.
Crowd: neighborhood creatives, couples, friends passing a bottle around the table.
Best night: Friday for energy; Sunday for backyard softness.
Price: not confirmed in the report.
The report says Frog was added to Time Out’s Brooklyn best-bars list in 2025.
