A new film pays tribute to one of Brooklyn’s oldest bars
Farrell’s Bar and Grill was “Facebook before Facebook.”
WINDSOR TERRACE — Windsor Terrace is less than a square mile in size, yet it’s a neighborhood known around the city for one reason: being home to one of Brooklyn’s oldest drinking spots, Farrell’s Bar and Grill.
Drinking out of Farrell’s iconic Styrofoam cups is equivalent to eating a Nathan’s hot dog or riding on the Cyclone. All three are quintessential Brooklyn traditions. (Though New York City’s Styrofoam ban put an end to that particular cherished pastime, the memories live on.)
