"Starting on November 21, most matches will be screened in the indoor part of Nowadays in Ridgewood. Their izakaya serves two types of ramen and a tempeh and veggie sandwich, so this place is a good option if you want to eat something other than wings and nachos. There are fire pits and heated yurts outside for when you need to get away from all the yelling and cheering." - kenny yang
"Holy spaciousness, Nowadays! This outdoor bar reminds us of why we came to Bushwick in the first place: it's vast, it's community-driven, it's casual, it's FUN. It's like you're hanging in someone's backyard: picnic tables, umbrellas, grass to lounge on, bocce, ping-pong, burgers + beers, and great tunes. Nowadays is what dreams are made of." - WSDIA | WeShouldDoItAll
"Sunday at The Frying Pan feels kind of like wedding brunch at the hotel the day after the reception. The space is about half as full as it was last night, people are hoping that there’s science behind the concept of hair of the dog, and there’s a vague scent of regret in the air. For something much more upbeat, head to Mister Sunday at Nowadays in Ridgewood. The daytime dance party that happens in the massive outdoor space here every Sunday is a great way to make the most of your weekend (even if it means you won’t make much of your Monday morning)." - matt tervooren
"If you’re looking for space, Nowadays has it. This giant bar in Ridgewood has a park-sized backyard full of trees, picnic tables, and games like ping pong. Your dog technically needs to be on a leash, but at least they'll be outside where there are birds to stare at." - team infatuation
"With a huge outdoor space filled with trees, dogs, and picnic tables, Nowadays feels a bit like a park. But instead of cold cuts, water bottles of pinot grigio, and aggressive rollerbladers, you’ll find fried chicken sandwiches and spicy margaritas. And rather than a “park closes at dark” sign, this Ridgewood spot has illuminated signs and hanging lights that stay on until midnight during the week and 2am on weekends." - matt tervooren
