I have a new favourite bar in NYC. We came for a drink and stayed for many. Lucinda, the owner, was a fantastic cocktail maker and host. Shes put a lot of effort into the place, and it shows. The place has a great mid-century aesthetic. Decent beer selection too! If you havent been here, go.Thank you for a great evening Lucinda, well be back!

Can’t believe this place is real. Lucinda fixed us the most magical cocktails - she just asked what kind of drinks and flavors we liked, and mixed out-of-the-world drinks like I’d never had before. I will be going back!!

This is a fantastic place to come, chill, and get some quality cocktails and great conversation. This is a real neighborhood place in so many ways. It is welcoming, comfortable, and unpretentious. Watching the folks behind the bar make the cocktails this half of the fun. These are folks who love the art of the cocktail and are fantastic at it.There is so much to try, that. If you dont spend the whole day here, you have to keep coming back again and again.I cant recommend this place enough.

Lucinda mixes a mean cocktail (or mocktail), you can tell her the flavors you like or your vibe that night and shes got you. A hidden gem 💎

Not sure why theres a closed permanently note on this page but it was open when I went a month ago and was delightful! Great drinks, best vibe. Was chill when the rest of Red Hook bars were slammed. Excellent hang, owners were incredibly nice. Wish this bar was my neighborhood local, Id be here daily.

Lucinda is one of the best bartenders in New York and she needs some respect on her name!!!Bar rocks drinks rock vibes rock.It’s like the coolest place on earth I think.Great outdoor seating vibes, but the action is inside.Get whatever the bartender is making

The most magical bar helmed by the most magical human. Lucinda has created such a special space—a true neighborhood gathering spot with exceptional cocktails. I wouldn’t consider myself an extrovert, but I’ve wound up having more lovely conversations with fellow patrons at Seaborne than I’ve had at all other bars combined. And I feel like that really says something about the environment of conviviality and warmth that Seaborne fosters. A rare diamond of a place.

Stopped by here on a warm day before they were open. The staff brought us some cold water while we waited! So very thoughtful. Top notch drinks and super cool little space. Will be back.

Slightly off the beaten path, this cozy bar has great cocktails and/or the old beer and a shot, all expertly served up by pros. Highly recommend. Oh yeah, and pinball in the back.

If you ever find yourself thinking that the cool, the quirky, the artsy is gone from NYC- come here. If you’re disillusioned and think it’s all millionaires and big-box stores, this place is the antidote. The drinks are made with such care and the patrons are lovely. It’s very special.

Lucinda is a master of creating cocktails and making her guests feel welcomed. Being a pillar of the New York classic cocktail scene, her creations are unbelievable. Seaborne is a must destination for great cheer and drinks.

Lucinda made me a tuxedo #2 and it was one of the best cocktails I’ve had in a very long time.

Great drinks and will specially craft to your whims.Summer haven: Water taps (and a deck of cards) at every table and the A/C works wonderfully too.

Love this little hidden gem in Red Hook. The endless water at the booths and the pin ball are my fav oh yeah and the delicious cocktails!

Review 29 (2023-03-20 - Rating: 5)
My favorite reason to go to Red Hook is sharing this gem with friends. Whether it’s Willie or Lucinda providing the hospitality and delicious drinks, you’re in great hands. I recommend their G&T or an M&M, but they truly can make anything you desire a reality!

MIAMI IS IN RED HOOK!!!! They are worth the hype! I’ve heard about Seaborne through neighbors and just people in Red Hook overall. I finally decided to give them a shot being that I’m no longer pregnant and man oh man. Their drinks are affordable and taste outstanding. I loved the variety of drinks I was served & their hours of operation are pretty convenient. I’ll definitely be back with some friends.

I dont like bars. Bars scare me and I dont like drinks. If this bar is open, GO TO THIS BAR. This is a magical experience. This place is so much more than the sum of its parts. It is a gorgeous getaway in a wonderful part of Brooklyn. Tell them Sandwich sent you.

Great cocktails for a reasonable price!

The late legendary Sasha Petraske conceived of this lounge and the very talented Master Mixologist Lucinda Sterling realized its creation from top to bottom. The craft cocktails are original, mouth watering and totally in keeping with the stature and quality of the great cocktail lounges that brought about the exciting cocktail revival that we are witnessing today
