Museum of the Moving Image

The only museum in the United States that is devoted exclusively to the history, art and technology of movies, television and video.

Reviewed By travels_galaxy - San Miguel de Cozumel, Mexico

This place is worth visiting just to see the Jim Henson exhibit. Original muppets from the Muppet Show (Ms Piggy, Kermit the Frog and the Swedish Chef) We visited last April, and they also had a history of sports video games, from pong to modern eSports (and everything in between). Definitely a good museum option in a city full of museums.

Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden

Bohemian Citizens’ Benevolent Society of Astoria The purposes of the Bohemian Citizens’ Benevolent Society of Astoria, Inc. are to encourage, support and maintain Schools, Dramatics, Lectures and Libraries for Czech and Slovak children and children of Czech and Slovak parentage: to maintain a social home for people of Czech and Slovak ancestry, in which the Czech and Slovak cultures may be taught and blended with American traditions and culture. The Society owns and manages the Bohemian Hall & Beer Garden. The Society consists of individuals of Czech and Slovak descent and their families who have pledged themselves to work for and promote the purposes for which the Society exists. In the late 1800’s many Czech and Slovaks emigrated from Austria-Hungary, and made their way to America. Many found a home in Astoria, Queens. In 1892, the Bohemian Citizens’ Benevolent Society was formed, named after the medieval Kingdom of Bohemia.

First, let me preface this review by saying I have never been to a Beer Garden and I do not drink beer. However, I had the opportunity to attend a family function at the Bohemian Hall and Beer Garden. It is a very warm and friendly tavern with a downstairs hall that probably seats about 100-150 people. There is also a bar downstairs if needed. The staff was very accommodating and the food was delicious. Our limited menu chosen specifically for the occasion was Hungarian goulash. potato latkes, and apple strudel. They also served a very tasty bread that I was unfamiliar with, but that was delicious. The actual outside garden was adorable and all decorated for Christmas. It was unfortunate that on the night of our party it was pouring rain and being in winter it was dark by the time we arrived. The staff lit everything up for us anyway. For beer drinkers, they served many different kinds of beer in large glass steins. I would recommend this place if you are ever in the area and just looking for a different and quaint atmosphere, or for an informal gathering with friends.
