Rivercrest 7.7
Astoria (North)-Ditmars-Steinway
Vibes: Brewery & Beer Garden Republic Sports Bar Central Happy Hour Hotspots Group Dining Gatherings
Rivercrest is a modern beer bar named for the old Astoria sanitarium site, pouring a deep tap list alongside burgers, wings, and brunch-y comfort dishes. It straddles sports bar and neighborhood hangout, with TVs for games but enough menu range to work for groups that care about food too.
Must-Try Dishes: House Burger, Buffalo or Dry-Rub Wings, Crème Brûlée French Toast
