Besides being one of the best Irish bars in New York City, Rocky Sullivan’s is where the working class of Red Hook go after work to relax, enjoy a hockey game and have pizza or some good Irish stew. No matter what, one always has a friend at Rocky’s.
Now one can enjoy Rocky’s before work as well. This month they have expanded into the early morning hours. Breakfast is now served between 8 am and 11 am, Mondays through Saturdays.
The food is freshly made in their kitchen, and the menu was created by George Kornienko, one of Rocky’s owners, but better known as their star bartender.
The fare includes a heaping bowl of oatmeal topped with a generous portion of blueberries, for $5; bacon or fried chicken sliders with eggs and cheese, served with home fries for $8; a breakfast pizza, also for $8.
The topper, or perhaps perfect game, is the Sandy Koufax special – named after the great Jewish Dodger pitcher. For $10 you get a hefty portion of smoked salmon atop a pita replete with red onions, grape tomatoes and cream cheese.
Of course, this is a bar, and if you would like to start your day with a Bloody Mary or Mimosa, this can be done for a measly $3. And yes, Rocky’s has coffee as well.
We think this is a great idea, and addition to Red Hook, as long as one remembers to go to work afterwards!
