Definitely the neighborhood bar that everyone loves! Friendly and welcoming bartenders. Pool table, air hockey table, pinball machines, pacman arcade game that doubles as a table, and Big Game Hunter.Plus, an eclectic clientele that really helps to give the place character. Its the dive bar that puts other dive bars to shame. One of my absolute favorite places to go in South Slope, hands down.Oh, and the drinks are priced very well.
In an area under constant gentrification, this is a great corner dive bar. Run down and cheap booze - great alternative to all the new establishments that have popped up in recent years.
Awesome neighborhood bar with pinball machines, a raised pool table space, amazing service (Ali is amazing! Give her all your money!), awesome music, an air hockey table way in the back and this weird shuffleboard bowling game that will steal all your money. Ive spent 20 buck on that thing before.The place has a ton of space so big groups are good to go. Drinks are priced right and the local crowd is super friendly. Buttermilk 4 lyfe!
Buttermilk is one of my favorite dive bars. Great bartenders no matter the shift, a good pool table, and a decent beer selection guarantee I will always love this bar. The crowds are decent too, and the bartenders are not afraid to 86 someone who shouldnt be there.
Small dive bar good for a low key evening. Pinball machines line the front of the place with a pool table in the middle and an air hockey table in the back. Small place so wait times could be long for pool/air hockey. $2 a game for pool.
The definition of a good dive bar. Ive had countless good memories here. They actually have a lot of games here as well; pinball, pool, big Buck Hunter, darts even an air hockey table. No food but you can bring in anything from outside that you want and the bartenders are hilarious. If youre in South slope definitely stop into Buttermilk. Ask for Mel!
Good vibe, friendly bartenders, and a good array of bar games (pool, darts, pinball).
Very high dive its a must go to place overall , pinball ,pool table ,full bar ,indoor and out door seating , very cool bartenders, lively atmosphere.
Awesome bar. The atmosphere is great. There is arcade games and a pool table that is shabby at best but it fits perfectly with the setting. The shuffle board is my favorite.
Nice dive bar option. Vintage games, darts, pool table, and decent beer selection.
Kaite and Tom are both great people and bartenders. Kaite even let me use an app on her phone to order Dominos (they have one right across the street and I was starving) and gave me the napkin hookup for my sammich. Buttermilk is supposed to be divey but thats exactly the kind of bar I like. Most of the people who walked in the door while I was there were either regulars or big groups of friends, so the atmosphere was familiar and friendly. Also, pinball and good music.
It’s your standard Park Slope, Brooklyn low-key hipster bar. They removed the free popcorn machine! I’m a little upset by that. But grab a Miller High Life and a shot of whiskey for seven dollars. Apparent they serve Bloody Marys for brunch. There’s an Iron Maiden Ping Pong machine in the front. Good times.
Fun dive. In my heart of hearts its a 3 star, but thats because this is not a true dive bar city. This place has good pinball, cheap drinks, and a great staff.
Even though I no longer live in the area, I still regard it as my home pub of sorts: zero pretensions, solid bar, good crowd (most of the time, anyway...you know how these things go). A dive Ill always recommend.
Love this place. Friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Great staff (love Ali!). great drinks...great pricing. A true neighborhood bar. Absolutely love it!
Love this bar great deals on drinks and they gave a pool table n games fun for a quick drink to blow off steam from work or a night out wit friends been goin here for Years
Bar tender is always rude. Tall lady brown hair. She’s terrible.
Bartenders are always cool
Friendly bartender, pool table (small size), air hockey, darts, pinball games, pacman..a lot of fun!! No food but they let you bring food in
So many bar amusements: 6 pinball tables, pool, darts, big buck hunter
Pretty good drinks and fun atmosphere!
Bar 5, bathrooms 2. Great bartender. A little overpriced.
Fun dive-but-not-quite with cheap drinks and ample seating. If youre looking for someplace less fancy to get your booze on, this is a good one.
Friendly bartender, cold beer and good pinball machines. A winner!No food or snacks, but you can order in.
Nice it has a pool table me and my husband has a wonderful date night out
Great local joint. Good drink price specials and feels like a dive bar upstate, which makes my boyfriend feel right at home!
DOPE bartenders, real rock music, a pool table, a few pinball machines, pacman/Galaga, air hockey, AND a dart board. What more can you want from a bar?
Cool bar, make sure you sign up for the pool table line if youre gonna use it.
Stopped in here last time I was in Brooklyn (day drinking 😂) and was really layed back. Unfortunately this time I was obviously early cuz they werent open yet. So goes my luck.
I think this place is called Wheelers now. Good bar to sit and relax with friend at. More of a local bar than a going out bar
Good drinks and I played pool here for a few. The bartender joined in and it was good night
The ambiance of the bar was pretty cool. Full of lovely people. Good drinks!
Great bar. Amazing bartenders. Wonderful people/atmosphere. Go to dis bar!
Nicely priced drinks, friendly staff and the pinball games are in great shape!
Cheap booze. They have a pool table and other games. Its a pretty chill place.
The last true dive bar in Park Slope? Bad lighting, pool table, bathroom graffiti, nice bartenders.
Cool bar. Nice vibes. Understaffed with longer than usual wait times
Really great bar with awesome bartenders, drinks are amazing!
Love this place. Basically I walk past a dozen others bars to visit this one. What more can I say.
Wow. I was suprised how much rudeness was be shown at one place. These reviews are written by locals. Careful if you go here dont expect good service or politness
Second time there really nice place. Arcade games too
Always a blast here. Staff is amazing and the atmosphere is great
Cheap drinks, jeopardy on TV, pool table, air hockey in the back, and good music. Yep.

All Taylor, all the time.
Thanks for making me feel welcome and at home! Great service great prices and great people.
Fantastic as always. Cheap beer, cheaper whiskey. Love it.
Photo booth, air hockey, drinks. Thats all you need for a great night.
Too much second hand smoke inside, from the smokers who stand in the open door. it makes me physically ill.
Perfect carnivalesque dive bar. Awesome staff!
Nice place to play pool and people are friendly.
A casual joint, with good drink prices.
I loved it. Nice place to relax and enjoy the company.
I have always had nice quick service, the music is always great
Meh ….
Good vibes, good games and fun environment
Cheap beer, but really needs to clean their lines.
Low key vibe with interesting and social people.
Gave my girlfriends credit card from the tab to someone else.
Love all the bartender there.
Best place to kick back and inebriate yourself into oblivion.
Just great local dive bar
Love a good neighborhood dive.

2022-05-31Great place to chill. The bartender was really nice and professional. I loved the pinball machines, it really made the night fun. The beers where reasonably priced and the pool games were great. Definitely a place to revisit.

2018-10-02A classy dive bar, if there is such a thing. Beer and shot specials, a pool table, pinball, photo booth, air hockey and arcade bowling machine are among the pleasant distractions. No food is served, but pizzeria across street takes care of that, and you’re welcome to bring it in. Music pleasant but not too loud. Bring a friend or ten.

2022-03-20I have come here two times before with male friends and had an okay time, nothing to report. I came here tonight with one other girlfriend and was completely disrespected and I can only imagine it was because it was only me and another woman. The bartender was extremely rude and dismissive and every patron there was offensive and misogynistic. I will not be returning to this bar and I hope this post informs others about the quality of this establishment.

2021-10-30I love the ambience at this place. The pool table is like, on the stage! The fence or the wall around it though can become detrimental to anyones game unless you are used on using the midget cue stick🤷 Otherwise, I love this pool bar. I guess, all bars that has a pool table will always be close to my heart!❤️They have a clean bathroom (this is very important to me! Of course, to everyone else😊). And the bar has variety of drinks you can choose from from hard to soft.

2022-03-21If you have ever wanted to play pool at Buttermilk in Brooklyn, absolutely turn around and go to another bar. Every single person in this bar was dismissive, rude, and misogynistic to my friend and me. They do not respect women, and I hope none of you who read this ever go there.

2021-07-14Honestly, the best bartender for miles. Ali is fantastic, takes care of new clients and regulars alike. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the neighborhood.

2018-09-09Love the place. Super friendly with an unpretentious and chill crowd most of the time. The pinball machines are good enough, the drinks are good. They have a good selection of board games too.

2021-08-27Great staff, drink deals, pinball selection, and pool table. This is a low key, welcoming bar. If your looking for local flavor, you found it! And it comes with a shot on the side.
