B.k. Sweeny's Parkside Tavern

I can't recommend this place enough. We had a change in our reservation and were accommodated seamlessly and kindly; especially from Damien and Reilly. The food was super fresh and tasty. Everything was the perfect temperature which is a pet peeve in my family. The drink were strong and fabulous which was needed after the day we had.

Went in for lunch today, Friday, and requested the round table. The rude blonde waitress very curtly stated that there was only room for 6 chairs, whereas we had 7 in the party. Upon looking at the table, we could definitely have fit one more chair and gently pointed that out. She obnoxiously refused and blamed the policy on the owner of the establishment. She also stated that if we tried to add the extra chair, she would kick us out. Well, she didn 't need to as we left and went to 'Me You Restaurant ' and had a lovely, sweet server who served us a delicious meal... I will never ever walk into Sweeney 's again, and apparently not a lot of people do as there was only one patron, sitting at the bar. (I would give this place a -5 stars if I could)

Awesome place. Go to place for meeting old friends and meeting new friends. Too bad Fish (bartender) is retired.

This type of Bar is a dying breed! Great beer, great food, all reasonably priced but most of all it's the heart of Bethpage!!! This is where the neighborhood comes to see old friends on or around holidays. I guess I crave that because my NYC neighborhood became deadly dangerous in the 80's! Everyone left and I never saw them again! Here the same people have been here for 2-3 generations and there's something to be admired about that. Come see the love here and you'll understand!

If you live in the area then this could be a place you go for brunch. Definitely not a destination place after a long drive. It's a bar that does brunch too. We came on a Sunday morning and was the 2nd table seated. There was only one waitress taking care of the 2 tables but even so it took over 10 minutes before she came back after seating us to ask if we wanted coffee. Then another 10 minutes she came back with the coffee and the cold crumb cake basket. Then another 10 minutes before she took our orders. The crumb cake was nothing special, the topping completely separated from the bottom but it was fresh. Definitely didn't see a need to order another basket for an additional $2.95. We barely touched the first one and we were hungry. Mimosa was watery, the flavor of orange juice was hardly present, it reminded me of bubbly Tang. Didn't bother with the second one. Hubby wasn't thrilled with the bloody Mary either. My sister got the eggs Benedict but the English muffin wasn't even toasted, it was basically raw,, when the waitress finally checked in she asked for the muffin to be toasted, it came back with a light brown ring around the edge, Still not toasted enough, she gave up and skipped eating the muffin. My burger was ordered medium rare and it came well done. I didn't bother to try and flag down the waitress since so there were so many other disappointments with the whole meal. This establishment was a one and done for our family.
