Anable Basin Sailing Grill

What a great hidden spot. Ok, on the way there my wife did make a few jokes about where I was taking her, but I had faith in my friend's recommendation. That said, he had only been there once by boat and was also a bit surprised by the access. Not often in the city do you come across this kind of super industrial area. But keep going and you come to the East River waterside with a full view of the city. The food and beers were good and reasonably inexpensive by city standards. The place was well run with friendly staff that kept the bathrooms and tables clean. Smaller groups sat at picnic tables, enjoying the last sunny days of summer.

There were beautiful trees, framing the fenced in property. But there was an odd barge next door, a burnt out, shabby property that once thrived as an event hall. Despite its current condition, I enjoyed watching the ducks float along the river on a very brisk afternoon. I'll definitely return in the summer.

Cash only! ATM on premises. Beautiful view of the water and city skyline. A little bit of an odd back alley entrance but you can walk right into an area to be closer to the water too. Great strong drinks limited options but seems like a full bar they could probably make what you need. Several burger options and veggie options. It's just simple wooden benches all around and two bathrooms, all this wonderful space for great views. Music plays the whole time and it's just down to earth! With the right people the hours will just pass by :

CASH ONLY SPOT! A good summer/spring spot to hang out outdoors to have a nice beer with a nice view. Its self service, so you order your own drinks at the bar. Not a lot of seatings so I suggest getting here early if you want to secure a seat.
