History

Third generation behind the same dive bar

Turkey's Nest opened in the 1980s as a local dive and sports bar, and that's still exactly how it describes itself1. It's now on its third generation of management1.

Four decades in, the dive is eyeing the great outdoors: in June 2026 Brooklyn Community Board 1 reviewed its application for a city outdoor dining permit2. It's still at 94 Bedford Avenue3.
