Halsey’s Tavern Looks like Mr. Met has been hanging out on 31st Ave! I’ve been a huge fan of Halsey’s Tavern since they opened earlier this year. The laid-back craft beer haven is one of my favorite places to relax and catch a game. They offer an astounding 30 beers in bottles and another 20 on tap, so even the most particular of beer connoisseurs can find something they love. And special bonus for tonight’s game: they’ll be offering 2 for 1 Harpoons all day!
