A new late-night pizza and wine bar is opening in Brooklyn Heights. Frenzie, located at 129 Atlantic Ave. in a space that previously housed Pips wine bar, will start serving eclectic pie varieties alongside a curated wine list this week. Food and drink will be available until midnight on weekdays and until 2 a.m. on weekends.
According to a report from Grub Street, the project comes from the team behind Confidant, the neighborhood restaurant that relocated from Industry City to Brooklyn Heights earlier this year. The menu will include 14-inch sourdough pizzas topped with sausage-and-peppers, spicy vodka sauce and ’nduja — a soft, spreadable, and fiery-spicy fermented pork sausage. There’s also three-cheese and white pie varieties, along with a range of small plates for noshing.
The late-night destination will not open its doors until 4 p.m. Monday through Friday; 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
Chefs Brendan Kelley and Daniel Grossman, who own both Confidant and Frenzie, told A Table for Two that they noticed a strong late-night crowd in Brooklyn Heights and wanted to create a casual spot for industry workers and other night owls after 9 p.m.
“This neighborhood has a lot of family energy, but there are also a lot of people like us, who get off work and are looking for a place to get a drink and hang out,” Grossman said.
Frenzie features approximately 40 seats inside and room for 25 more outside, weather permitting, and is intended to be ultracasual.
After 10 p.m., the menu will include late-night specials like square slices or one-off pies, all first-come, first-served, chef’s choice. Special bar combos will include deals like a martini and a slice for $20 or a Narragansett beer with a shot and a slice for $15, A Table for Two reported.
