Drinks & Nightlife

I used to bartend at this James Beard Award Winning Cocktail Bar. The vibe is amazing, drinks are hand-crafted, and you can see the backyard garden from my living room.

This is one of the funnest/cheapest bars in the area. Dogs roam wild in the bar and in the extensive backyard. Grab a PBR, a shot of Fireball, and a puppy for $5. Free shuffleboard.

Hahahahahaha. You'll see. Free cheeseballs, red licorice whips on the bar, connect four, jenga, and all the hipster you can handle. Meet some new frenemies at the hotly contested pool table. $3 PBR.

Awesome dive. No games, but great 80s movies on the tv all the time. Best chicken sandwich in Williamsburg. Oh man. Now I want one...

Relatively new, this honky tonk has great live country and blue grass but gets crowded as balls. If you want to rub elbows (literally) grab yourself a seat and enjoy the show. $3 Hi-Life.

Food Scene

I'm from California and I give this Mexican food my stamp of approval. $7 for a bomb ass pollo burrito. 45 second walk. Love this place.

Hot Damn That's Good BBQ. Any place that sells meat by the pound gets my vote. Busy during the weekends, but you're on vacation! Go during the week.

Every drink comes with a free pizza. Seriously. A whole pizza. Buy a $5 Yeungling - get a free 6 slice cheese pizza. Is the pizza amazing? Not really. But it's FREE! STOP QUESTIONING IT?!

Everything Else

I used to bartend here too. Great beer selection in those big ass steins. The sausages are ridiculous and this place can get BUMPING with a live band. Tell em I sent you.

80s video games that still cost 25 cents. Oh yeah...they have an amazing selection of microbrew beer. I'll be the guy on Ms. Pacman. P.S. I'm better than you.
