Longtime restaurant & bar offering a menu of burgers & other American eats, plus outdoor seating.
From Google Maps reviews.
The short ribs and burger were fantastic! Three of us shared bites of our food so we could all enjoy both entrees. Two of us got ribs and one of us a mushroom burger. All come with delicious fries, too. The atmosphere was spectacular - decorated for Valentine's Day, and the service was top-notch. This place must win many awards! Wow!!
The holiday decorations were wonderful for Christmas and loved the wrap around train for the seating in the back. Food was reasonably priced for Bay ridge with friendly and fast service. The calamari was not super crispy but the crispy chicken sandwich made up for it.
I lived in Bay Ridge Bklyn for most of my young adult life. And Skinflints is one of the most iconic bar / restaurants in Bklyn, with one of the best burgers ever. I don't think I've been here since 1999-2000!?🤯! What a treat to visit last night, remembering, always order the English Muffin well done!😁
