History
Located in the beloved home of Lentos Pizzeria and Yellow Hook, The Brooklyn Firefly is built on years of Bay Ridge food history. It extends the legacy of Lentos' pizza institution, giving it new life while telling a story of its own. The Brooklyn Firefly is a hub for romantics, nostalgics, and lovers of pizza, music, and art. It is the culmination of years of living, working, and representing Bay Ridge by owner Michael McLeer- world renowned artist, graffiti writer, and musician. It was built as a gathering space and eatery for locals and visitors alike- a place to come to for a cold drink, a hot slice, a Saturday jazz set, and the love of Brooklyn.
