Fodor's Expert Review The Lock Yard
Bay Ridge
In an old locksmith shop where owner and local restaurateur (he also owns the Kettle Black bar and Ho’Brah taco joint) Tommy Casatelli worked as a kid, this neighborhood hot spot summons a young craft-beer-loving clientele with its impressive array of American beers, plus a handful of sustainable wines and specialty cocktails—and the 1,300-square-foot heated beer garden with picnic tables and festive lights. The menu features artisanal sausages and hot dogs, knishes, and fries.
