The Commodore

The Commodore is a true locals’ bar with boozy slushies and bright red drinks. The chicken biscuit stands up to the one at Pies ‘N’ Thighs, and the chilaquiles are an easy brunch order.

Three-thigh fried-chicken plate, with biscuits and hot sauce ; the hot breast sandwich ; the equally incendiary hot fish . There’s also a classic burger , an irresistible pimento-poblano grilled cheese .

They'll let you awkwardly stand up eating your AMAZING fried chicken on the pinball machine after getting kicked out of a table reserved for a Monday night DJ , unaware there's an outdoor area ????

The menu is designed to go well with booze, but the thing to order is the Fried Chicken Plate , which consists of three juicy thighs inside sweet batter; a couple of sauces; and a handful of biscuits . Read more

$3 Schaefer's Beer and $7 grilled cheese ?! Child, please... Best deal I've come across NYC to slum it. For $5 more, upgrade to 'adult' cheese sandwich (w/ peppers ) plus tomato basil soup . #MomSlapGood

I had the hot sandwich , really good, wish it was crispie , next time I am gonna get the 3-piece plate! Also the house drinks are good! Combined with a divey/tropical theme, I’ll def come back!

The cheeseburger 's patty is seared & slipped onto a Martin's potato roll with lettuce sliced to ribbons, thick pickle chips , chopped white onion , bound with mayonnaise . It's reliably delicious!

You may have to be a bit aggressive to snag a table; but it's absolutely worth it. All of the food is beyond incredible, and they have fun old-timey cocktails like a sloe gin fizz !

You'd never expect such a divey dive bar to have such amazing food... The hot fish sandwich is perfectly crispy , fish hanging off the sides of the bun , perfectly spicy , and piping hot. Chkn is oily.

ALMOST as good as Pies N Thighs. We get in fights over this one all the time. Either way, excellent fried chicken and the honey butter is a winner. Get a tiki drink with your meal. Read more

Dive bar & fried chicken ? Doesn't make sense. But somehow, it works beautifully. Seat yourself (you may have to wait a bit) & order @ the bar . They'll bring it to you. The honey butter is MAGIC.

I never see the same people working. Everyone working is always the greatest, which is more than I can say for the obnoxious customers like myself. A great place and I love it.

Your day will improve as soon as your cross the threshold of this establishment. Now, get a table and order the following: hot breast sando + a million boat drinks + nachos for the table. ????

The portions are huge! The fried chicken is banging. Did I mention the portions are huge?

Burgers aren't eaten in a vacuum. As with all dining experiences, a good product can be augmented by the surroundings, which is exactly why this food-focused dive bar wins every time. Read more

Wow the fried chicken biscuit was OUT of this world amazing. With the grits !!! Also tried the burger and pork hash .

I had fish tacos . Surprisingly good. Good salsas .... a green and a chipotle, decent slaw , fish was nice and really thin crispy batter, not a heavy floury batter. Six or so beers on tap . Totally decent

For the fried chicken lover, Chef Stephen Tanner’s kitchen serves up three crispy mammoth thighs and honey butter biscuits with the Egg and Pies ‘n’ Thighs, a dish you’re sure to love.

The only dive bar where you can play video games , drink cheap beer and eat some of the best fried chicken on earth. Read more

Love this place! The burger is delicious and well worth it for $7. The nachos are kind of weird w "queso " instead of melted cheese .

The fried chicken is solid - one of the best in the city . Comes with mini melty biscuits and if you want to feel a bit better about yourself, the kale salad is quite good.

Burger with cheese , egg and bacon , pork hash and chicken sandwich are amazing choices. Be advised that there is no sign. Know the address!

At $12, the fried chicken meal is an inexpensive and ideal bar snack to line your stomach before you consume multiple piña coladas (or frozen mojitos , if that's more your thing). Read more

Amazing fried chicken sandwich . Might be as big as your face. Split one if you're not starving to death and grab one of their cheap essential cocktails .

Seriously this place rocks. Order fried chicken and beer at the bar . The chicken is easily big enough for 2 to share - or to give away a couple of pieces and make friends. DO IT!

I should hate this place (looks like a '70s basement ), but instead it's my favorite spot in Williamsburg. The fried chicken is the star, and the honey butter will leave you licking your fingers.

Really wanted to try the fried chicken but kitchen currently closed due to fire. Free pizza was a nice consolation; will be back someday!

I guess you gotta just look at the fried chicken as (admittedly very highly) elevated bar food because I dunno, it’s not THAT good otherwise. $14 for three thighs and three small biscuits . Lotsa skin

Best fried chicken I have ever eaten. Now everywhere else I get fried chicken is a disappointment. Also, Cyclone pinball machine on free play!

Dunno if it’s the best fried chicken , but the hot breast sandwich was pretty darn good. Small, loud space that I like better for day drinking than late night .

Hot breast sanga was spot on. Nachos were quality too and solid drinks. Outdoor patio is chill . Only downside is trying to order food at a very hectic bar .

The fried chicken was probably the best I've ever had. The biscuits and honey butter are heavenly. I already can't wait to come back!

The hot breast is about twice as big as the bun . Bring a hefty appetite. There's also cheap beer , you can't go wrong.

Is basically someone's very dark retro den and has tiki drinks , is a good time.

Hot breast ???? + Nachos + Frozen Mojitos

Of course the hot breast is great, but the very unconventional green salad with pickles and cheddar is easily overlooked and an excellent starter.

This is not your average dive bar . This southern style restaurant offers up some of the best burgers and fried chicken in the city . Leave a trust rating to help spread the word: http://bit.ly/1mOq5L4

Hands down best fried chicken I've had in New York. Commodore cocktail is just okay though

12$ for three HUGE fried chicken pieces with biscuits and three delicious sauces. Also had an amazing frozen margarita . Go! Now!

Bacon Cheeseburger : Free-range Angus beef , melted cheese , raw onion , lettuce, tomatoes and pickle chips ? Oh, if you insist. Read more

Order this: Fried chicken plate , hot fish sandwich , kale Caesar salad , cheeseburger , biscuits with honey butter Read more

Get. The. Nachos . Best in Williamsburg. UFO goes best with the slightly spicy treat. Also, perfect date if you're on a budget.

Great place to go when your rum loving sailor friend is suddenly killed in a freak accident and you need a dank corner to drink yourself stupid. Try the fried chicken and the Piña Coldas!

Fried chicken and biscuits were great, beer great, atmosphere great, Cadillac nachos sucked.

Sick amazing insane food! The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside and the green salad was light and refreshing.

A grimy bar with the best Micheladas you’ve ever had. Fried chicken and rolls come with 3 kinds of honey butter to help you slide into a booze-fueled, deep-fried dream.

best fried chicken in the neighborhood . order from the bar , seat yourself. grab a table on the patio out back on a soon to be fall night

Piña coladas , cans of beer and diner staples. Get shitcanned and dance to rock n' roll.

Solid dive. Love the porthole with the fish tank. Drink here while u wait for your table at St Anselm

Order: Spicy fried chicken sandwiches , nachos , micheladas , and dancing .
