Sunny’s Bar – Red Hook Dive Bar Print by John Tebeau 🎨

A Brooklyn Waterfront Classic, Loud with Soul (and Live Music)

Sunny’s Bar, tucked near the end of Red Hook and a stone’s throw from the harbor, is one of New York’s last great bohemian holdouts. For over a century (!), it’s been slinging drinks, thumping with music, and standing tall through storms, time, and tides. You walk in and feel it instantly—this isn’t just a bar, it’s a living memory. So I drew it.

This is my illustrated tribute to Sunny’s Bar, featured in my book Bars, Taverns, and Dives New Yorkers Love, and now available as a signed print in multiple sizes—including handmade silkscreen editions.


Why Sunny’s Deserves a Spot on Your Wall:

  • Historic & Legendary – In business since the 1890s, Sunny’s has survived Prohibition, hurricanes, and real estate booms. It's still going strong.

  • Musical Heartbeat – A dive that comes alive on music nights. If those walls could talk, they’d shout, “PLAY LOUDER.”

  • Red Hook’s Soul – Cobblestone streets, power lines overhead, old trucks out front—it’s got grit, heart, and style.

  • Artist-Crafted – I didn’t just snap a pic. I drew it. Carefully. With love and ink.
