Loki Lounge Reopens in Half of Previous Space
Wednesday, January 14, 2025 at 8:07AM
Loki Lounge, the bar that's been on the corner of Fifth Avenue and Second Street since 1999, closed up shop a couple months ago, about eight months after the owners put the space on the market. They didn't close for good, however; while about two-thirds of the space (facing Fifth Avenue) is still for rent, the remaining space, accessible via a staircase around the corner on Second Street, has reopened with a brand new concept.
The cozy new space, above, is certainly an improvement from the rather dour previous one, and the owners probably should have given it a new name to separate it from its past. There's plenty of exposed brick, a working fireplace, and light woods, with a bar that seats eight and a handful of tables. There's a solid selection of craft cocktails made with fresh-made juices, as well as a food menu of small bites and sandwiches that looks pretty good: dishes include soy-glazed chicken wings, bay scallop tacos, BBQ pork sliders, lamb flatbread with olives and gryuere, a burger, a shaved Italian beef sandwich, fried baby chicken, and cheese and charcuterie, topping out at $13.
The new bar is a little difficult to find, hiding behind a small door with no sign, but it's hard to argue that it's not an imprevement from its previous incarnation.

I had a glass of wine there last week, they have a great list with cocktails too. The new space is delightful and the bartender (I remember him from the old Loki) was so nice. We can't wait to go back and try the food. The new Loki is a great addition to the neighborhood.
This is a really good idea. Nothing against the previous place, but it was like drinking in an Elk's Lodge.
Is that LeeAnne girl still the bartender there?

Still looks like a place to meet your coke dealer.
Went last night - the new space is welcoming and warm. With all the closings in the neighborhood, I'm happy that this latest iteration is still with us.
Best bar in Park Slope hands down.
They should've changed the name. This place is nothing like the original
Loki. It does not feel like a bar at all, its like Benchmark's waiting room now.
Yeah, who was that bardendress? LeighAnne
Went here last week and was really impressed with the nice, inviting space, a very good beer selection and surprisingly excellent food. We had the wings, flatbread, and the burger and they were all fantastic. Far better than expected and the two apps plus burger were enough food for 2 of us. It is an odd location, but a really nice space and they were very friendly. Big improvement over the old space. When we went it was cash only, but hopefully by now they have the CC machine working.
