Our event spaces

Main bar area

This is our main bar area

The main bar area features a sophisticated, intimate, and warmly lit interior, combining contemporary elegance with a vintage cocktail lounge atmosphere. A long, polished white countertop serves as the centerpiece, extending nearly the entire length of the room. The bar is lined with deep emerald-green upholstered stools, creating a rich contrast against the dark wood paneling and flooring.

Guest capacity

20-24 Seated

60-80 Standing

Lounge

A beautiful lounge

The room features deep forest-green velvet sofas with oversized, rounded cushions arranged around small, circular wooden cocktail tables. The low, plush seating creates a cozy, secluded environment designed for relaxed conversations. The walls are covered in rich, dark wood paneling arranged in a geometric grid, with concealed warm amber lighting illuminating each section from below. This creates a beautiful contrast between the glowing walls and the shadowy seating area.

Backyard

Our beautiful backyard

Barely Disfigured feels like a hidden tropical oasis tucked away in the middle of Brooklyn. It has the atmosphere of a secluded garden in Tulum, Bali, or the Caribbean rather than a typical New York City bar. The space is lush, intimate, and beautifully layered with greenery. Towering palms, broad banana leaves, tropical plants, and mature trees surround the seating areas, creating a natural canopy that makes the garden feel almost completely removed from the city.

    Came for casual drinks with friends ✅ David was a hilarious, honest, and attentive server. Asked him if I could have at least 1 minute to decide, but no more than 3 minutes. He came back in 2. Dedication. Drinks were creative, delicious, and well-priced for the area.

    Gets hyped up for their wonderful backyard, which is legit. But should be more hyped up for being one of the best cocktail bars in Brooklyn. Dim but comfortable vibe, and yes a tremendous backyard when the weather is right. The bartenders are very friendly and know their stuff, they will gladly share their process. But the star are the cocktails. The Terencingo is so much fun, starts as a delicious dry mezcal martini and when you flip the ice, becomes wonderfully savory. The Reply to Red is a unique take on a dirty martini and The Human Condition is one of my all time favorite rum drinks. Overall, Barely Disfigured is a must try for anyone who loves cocktails!

    Over all was great loved the drinks, like they were seriously good. Service was good just the wait staff ( server) wasn't dressed to work at a bar more like a gym. But still a great place would recommend trying there drinks out.
