Profile

The true glory of the Gate is its proximity to Prospect Park. After playing football for a couple of hours, stumble a few blocks downhill for some reconstructive surgery in the form of a pint, maybe a whiskey (an impressive array of both are available). By the time your body completely stiffens up on you, you'll be numb and happy in the cozy, tavern-like room. Or, split a pitcher with your teammates on the Gate's space-doubling outdoor patio. And feel free to stay deep into the evening if you think you're young enough to fit in with the flirty crew who call the place home.
