43 Bar & Grill

Sunnyside’s bar scene has its constants. 43 Bar & Grill sits at 43-06 43rd St, a corner where the neighborhood’s mix of long-timers and weekend crowds often converges. They keep a rotation of bar games and trivia nights, drawing solo diners and groups alike—regulars who come for the beer selection as much as the plates. Lunch and dinner service moves quickly, a nod to the fast pace of the block, and the menu includes at least one local specialty that changes with the season. Sports play on screens, though the volume stays low enough for conversation. Directions are simple: plug the address into your map. If the evening’s lineup isn’t listed online, a call to (718) 361-3090 will fill in the gaps. Cocktails lean toward classics, and the taps favor regional brews.
