"Sunny’s lille havneknejpe - siden 1890’erne. En tidslomme, der med sin stamstemning, skæve gulvbrædder og finurlige interiør indkapsler Red Hooks sjæl. Absolut et besøg værd - sammen med den lokale sømandscharme. I weekenden er der jamsession med bluegrass og country, mens der drikkes Dark ‘n’ stormy."

"I have got to get personal with this one: Sunny’s Bar is the reason I moved to New York. Red Hook, more specifically. But the thing is, Sunny’s Bar is Red Hook; it’s the beating heart of a tiny seaside community dead set on supporting each other’s creative, oddball excursions, dead set on maintaining the weird, wild heart of New York City’s finest. That’s why it isn’t surprising to see legends like Smokey Hormel routinely returning to Sunny’s for late night sets. That’s why it isn’t surprising to see the likes of Norah Jones and Jeff Tweedy in the audience, soaking it in. This is New York. This is the dream you came looking for–it lives. But you’re just as likely to come on a night where the only thing going on in the back is a bunch of locals sitting around picking through standards in a guitar circle. Both occasions have moved me to tears, multiple times. The most recent occasion to do is the passing of the bar’s namesake and spiritual emissary, Sunny Balzano. That the music goes on in his bar night after night is just what he would’ve wanted, it is the memorial that he deserves. So go ahead and make your way down to this waterfront spot, but please make sure you understand the importance of what goes on in here before you step a foot inside. Best For: Big nights of small magic."

"do you believe in ghosts? sunny���s, whose namesake owner died in march, makes a strong case that you should (at least the friendly variety). the sunny���s you hear stories about ��� the one that operated without a liquor license for years, was open only on fridays, and had sort of a magnetic pull on new york���s most lovely misfits ��� was part of a time that really no longer exists in crowded, trendy, young red hook. but sunny balzano imbued his bar with a sense of love and a joyful feeling that does still exist on slow, pleasant, lazy nights spent sharing stories over budweisers in the pretty little back garden, or posted up at the worn wooden bar, or listening to a bluegrass jam in back. in that sense, the old-timey-ness here is more of a spiritual feeling, so don���t miss it."
