Ridgewood straddles the Brooklyn-Queens border, and the bar scene reflects that in-between energy. Dive bars, neighborhood hangouts, and creative cocktail spots line the blocks around Seneca and Wyckoff Avenue, with some of the best happy hour prices in either borough. The neighborhood has attracted a wave of new spots without losing the old-school character that made it interesting in the first place.
