New York Meet Up III

jwillefo

There was talk from the last discussion about having one more meet up before the end of the summer. What do people think about having a meet up next Wed (22nd) or Friday (24th)? Should we try Goodworld again or there was also talk of trying out Brooklyn (Williamsburg or Carroll Gardens)?

Finally, a NYC meet-up I can attend. I vote for somewhere in Carroll Gardens, but I'm not picky.

Isn't Cafe Habana in Fort Greene just a food truck with some benches? Or at least it was the last time I went there. Brooklyn Social is great bar, but gets too packed for a meet up. There's also the Boat.

too bad, i'll miss out....especially since it sounds like the meetup will finally land in my backyard....
you could always meet up at floyd's on atlantic ave.....it's a pretty good size place and has it's own bocce court.

*bump*

I'm trying to schedule appointments this week with prospective landlords and roommates, so it would be helpful to know what evening we plan on meeting. Anybody have a strong preference for one evening or the other? Is there anybody who can't make it one evening or the other?

Either evening is fine with me, but it would be nice to know beforehand so that I can schedule my appointments around the event.

Thanks....

i think friday night would work best considering we'd have
three more days for people to figure out what's goin on..
where we're going to go and such...it could be early so
people could still go out afterwards or whateva..

Sounds like a plan.... How about Friday at 7 PM, at a location yet to be determined? (Bonus points if said location also serves food.)

i'm in, +1...probably won't be there (wherever it is) until closer to 8pm.

brooklyn is fine...floyd's on atlantic ave sounds good to me...but anywhere reasonably close to a mta station is cool.

Unfortunately, something has come up for my Friday evening. If I can make it, it'll be after 10. Floyd's sounds like a good pic though.

Works for me... Does Floyd's serve food? If not, I can always grab a bite to eat nearby.

Floyds doesn't have food but on the same block there's the Chipshop and Waterfront Ale house that both serve food.
Floyd's website is floydny.com
