The Good Fork Pub

We were in Red Hook and just googled for a place near our location for a quick bite and we were pleasantly surprised. Warm vibe, great beers and super tasty food. We loved the fact that everything was handled electronically because it made the whole process seamless. I had the grilled cheese made with gruyere and prosciutto and it was a delicious combo of tastes. My husband had their burger and said it was great.

I tried to walk in at Red Hook Tavern to try their famous burgers, but there was no luck getting a table. After searching on Google for nearby burger spots in Red Hook, I found The Good Fork Pub — and it did not disappoint.

The restaurant had a nice, steady crowd, and the food came out quickly and exactly as ordered.

Definitely a great spot for burgers and drinks. Highly recommend checking it out!

Food was delicious!! Drinks were great.. we tried a little bit of everything. Fried chicken and Brussels were my favorite..&& The Fries were perfectly crisp.
Everyone was super friendly, amazing service.
We went while they were holding the 481 Fire Fundraiser.. There was live entertainment. A few bands played The Thing, Figure of Fun, Rabbit Hole

This place never disappoints. The food is always good; the staff is always friendly and the ambiance is always welcoming and relaxed. Recommend the smash burger; the kimchi and phili steak sandwich; the fries ( any of them ) and the Ceasars salad. Honestly you can't go wrong with anything offvthe menu.

I stumbled into The Good Fork Pub while exploring Red Hook, and it ended up being the highlight of my day. There’s something about this place that just feels right—cozy, welcoming, and full of personality. The staff was warm and attentive without hovering, and you could tell they genuinely cared about the food and the vibe.

I had their double smash burger and wow—easily one of the best I’ve had in the city. Crispy-edged patties, melty cheese, the perfect ratio of bun to meat, and that house sauce tied everything together beautifully. It was indulgent without being over-the-top, just pure burger bliss.

I also tried the Korean-style steak & eggs, which was just as impressive. Perfectly cooked steak, rich yolky eggs, and a seasoning profile that packed serious flavor. Their cocktails are no joke either—thoughtfully crafted and strong in all the right ways.

The menu blends comfort food with creative twists, and you can tell there’s real heart behind every dish. What I love most is how local it feels—like a true Red Hook gem that hasn’t gone overly trendy or lost its soul. If you're in the neighborhood, The Good Fork Pub is an absolute must.

I forgot their names but the entire staff were amazing. It was a pleasure meeting them all. I will be returning.
