A social event and reception at the Jaywalker bar and distillery in Bushwick, Brooklyn

Weddings & social · Bushwick

The Brooklyn wedding weekend

Rehearsal dinners, micro-weddings, and reception afterparties in a working distillery — an intimate, design-forward room with cocktails on our own rye and gin, steps from the L.

Intimate, not cookie-cutter

Not every celebration wants a catering hall. A micro-wedding, a rehearsal dinner, an anniversary, a reception afterparty, Friendsgiving, a reunion — they want somewhere with character. A distillery with an aesthetic all its own gives you that, for 30 up to 370.

Your night, your way

Seated or standing

A room that adapts

A seated rehearsal dinner or a full standing reception — the floor reconfigures either way.

The signature

Custom cocktails

Jane Danger and Jamie Gordon can build a signature drink for the couple on our own rye or gin. A custom-label bottle makes the favor.

The afterparty

A late room with a pulse

The reception ends, the afterparty starts — bring a DJ and keep the whole room until close.

The part a loft can’t copy

Every booking can add the distillery itself. This is the difference-maker, and the reason people remember the night — priced per guest, on top of the bar.

Hands-on

Cocktail class

Your group builds Martinis and Manhattans behind the bar with our team — a team-builder that actually ends with a drink you made.

Guided

Rye & gin tasting

A led tasting through the New York Distilling range — Jaywalk Rye, Dorothy Parker Gin, Perry’s Tot — poured feet from where it’s made.

Behind the glass

Distillery tour

A walk through the working distillery and the story of the 17th-century Horton rye revived over thirteen harvests. Add it to any event.

Recurring

Private barrel select

Your company picks a cask, then comes back to bottle it with custom labels — a reason to return, and favors no one else can hand out.

Good to know

How many people can you hold?

Up to 370 for a full buyout, and comfortably down to an intimate 30 in a reserved area. The room adapts to seated dinners or standing receptions.

What does it cost?

We work on a food-and-beverage minimum spend, tiered by space, day, and season. Monday–Wednesday is our best value, since the bar is otherwise dark. Send an inquiry and we’ll quote your date.

Can we bring outside catering?

The bar is ours; food is flexible — we’ll talk through in-house snacks, a guest-chef pop-up, or your own caterer — whatever the night calls for.

Is there AV and sound?

Yes — a proper sound system and big screens, DJ- and live-music-ready. There’s a dedicated performance space for panels, talks, and podcast recordings.

Where are you, and how do people get there?

573 Johnson Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11237 — Bushwick / East Williamsburg, a short walk from the L train at Jefferson St. Walkable from the agencies, studios, and offices nearby.

Do you do shoots?

Yes. Film, photo, and commercial shoots rent the room — a design-forward working bar and distillery, camera-ready.
