Highly anticipated “urban tiki” destination Dromedary Bar officially opened last Friday, April 22nd, and Bushwick turned out to celebrate the new spot in remarkably high numbers.
Located at 266 Irving Avenue on the corner of Menahan Street off of the Myrtle-Myckoff stop on the L and the M trains, Dromedary seems poised to become a neighborhood favorite. Bushwick Daily previewed Dromedary back in November, when it was scheduled to open in December; a few months after the original opening date, the spot is finally open and serving upscale beach staples sans messy sand, just in time for warm weather days.
Dromedary’s signature cocktails are sophisticated takes on classic tiki drinks: Two of them contain absinthe and one has cricket bitters. Among the best offerings are the Marlin Chasing a Mermaid (Cognac, Mezcal, Banana, Lemon, Rose) and the Mt. Kilauea Colada (Rum blend, Pineapple, Coconut, All-Spice, Blood orange, Absinthe).
