Prepare to dance the night away at this Williamsburg staple. Drinks are reasonably priced; a DJ rocks the inside, while the taco stand and picnic benches out back offer a repose. - Green Guide Editor

Erik Cintron

Cool hipster spot a little bit for everyone. Huge inside bar with a place for a band which they do. Great prices at the bar , unisex bathroom . There is an outside patio with a taco truck that is yummy

Really chill & lovely venue in Williamsburg. Dance to an eclectic DJ set or stay in the backyard and meet new people in their 20s to 30s. Not the night of your life but definitely worth the $5 cover.

Kristina Rudic

On Sunday nights, the wild dance bar transforms into a quaint jazz place full of life. The band that plays is truly not to be missed and they're incredible entertainers!

Omari Allen

This is the only place I know where you can get down on the dancefloor with a fried chicken sandwich in hand. ????????

Adam Schuit

One of the better bars in Williamsburg to check out. They have a cover charge usually which sucks but the music is on point. Also they have food in the back... aka drunk food on demand!

Bee Williams

I love The Woods but it’s become super popular! Arrive early to avoid cover and a long ass line ! Other than that it’s reasonably priced drinks and great music !

Joanne Reinard

Come with friends, don't pay a huge entry fee, get a real long drink and date to smoke on the patio outside. Perfect old-school music ????????

Marcela Erazo

If it's late, and you're still up, and you wanna dance but can deal with the drunk people-this is your place! Good music , the margarita is surprisingly good!

Emily Wilson

Go for a beer in the daytime or evening on the weekend. You'll have the huge space basically to yourself! It's cool.

Liza Dye

Check out the Wednesday night party MISSTER with one of the best (if not the best) DJs in Brooklyn, Amber Valentine. Her crunk 90's trill DJ set will be sure to keep you coming back every Wed!

Cecilia Williams

The food in the back was delicious. Bacon on a stick. Hot dogs . Grilled cheese . And the drinks are pretty affordable . AND THE MUSIC WAS FANTASTIC!

Thrillist

Come for grilled cheese , stay for Tiki cocktails . Read more

Courtney Bolton

I come here to dance all night. You won't realize it's 4am until they knock up the lights at 3:50a. I enjoy how crowded it is - easy to get lost in the crowd.

Francesca Krihely

Great for happy hour 5-10 M-F. New taco truck in the back makes great carnitas nachos . Get a blueberry lemonade and enjoy.

Kevin Skobac

The roomy back yard is also home to Landhaus, maker of one of my favorite cheeseburgers and a delicious maple bacon on a stick

Natalie V

Great dancing , like that they have a couple sections so you can order food and get away from the noise if you want

Ana Patricia

Go to the back patio . Great feel on a nice day. The Haus burgers are soooo yum! And they're on potato bread !! ????

Sarah Maguire

Perfect mix of music and epic munchies, I will be back. Bacon on a stick is way too fancy , much happier with my corn on the cob

Audrey Tolbert

If you have to be here, go to the bar in the back across the patio and countdown the minutes till it's socially acceptable to leave.

Danielle Cardona Graff

There's a new dance party at The Woods every Monday called VVYNL hosted by the band Lexelle. DJS and live bands every week, showcasing the latest in the NYC electro-synthpop music scene.

Michelle Wiles

fun fun fun! great dancefloor on the weekends, open patio and tacos in the back. Perfect for a night out

Caroline Elizabeth

Fun dancing and a night outdoor space . Like a slightly more remote and smaller version of Union Pool . All the same people frequent both.

Jim Taylor

The Woods attracts a crowd over the entire weekend, and some weeknights too, with it’s lively ambience and late night DJs . Read more

Compass

Affordable drinks, live bands , and groove-conscious DJ's draw an eclectic twentysomething crowd of North Brooklynites to The Woods.

AmateurConcierge

Cool space with a big open area in the mids. Solid tuneage

Carola Ferreyra

Great food and drinks, great servers, great security, TERRIBLE HEAD OF SECURITY. Got kicked out for complying and having a good time, don't go here.

Jess Kao

interesting crowd, food in the back is the best!

Wyngspan

A place to dance the night away and have a few beers for a decent price. We think it deserves a trust rating: http://bit.ly/1iDBFv0

Drew Diver

The food in the back is pretty amazing. Probably the best chicken wings I've had.

Portlandia

Enjoy $2 snacks from the taco-truck-in-residence and watch the cool kids make out to "Rump Shaker". The Woods is South Williamsburg's finest high school party for adults!

Macdem Teklemariam

Music it's great and the vibe it's relaxed leave your troubles at the door and prepare to dance

Simon Green

Love the big outdoor area next to the dancefloor. I need more spots like this one. Union Pool comes close but I like the vibe here more.

ᴡ Elliot

The bartenders here are the sweetest. And the shrimp burger was better than it sounds - pair with fries for sure.

Renée Taylor

my go-to night out spot! They have really awesome music on Saturday nights :)

Gideon Olshansky

Great mixed drinks . Gets crowded after 11. Cash only in the backyard .

Erindira Tejada

Great music ranging from 80's and 90's House and Hip Hop . Don't forget to order the pickle shots!

????T

Great DJs and you can smoke in the outdoor area they've got in the back

ReALTO

Great pickle back shots. Wait, all pickle back shots are great. If it's not too busy, play some shuffleboard in the back.

Will Tower

$1 Miller High Life drafts for Happy Hour on weekdays. Awesome backyard with a greenhouse and taco truck .

Brady Dale

$20 minimum on credit cards here, which is, by the way, completely illegal since the banking reforms in the President's first term. $10 limit is the max.

Tucker Aust

Great vibe. Big space , and super fun live music .

Brigitte Perez

I enjoyed this place until someone stole me and my girlfriends coat Wednesday night 11/18/2015.

Maya Jimenez ????

Amazing music ! The cover is annoying but at least there are munchies in the back.

David Letts

Bacon on a stick. Plus the people working the back taco stand Ive met have all been pretty cool

Jordan Crook

Big space . Good music . Huge patio with outdoor bar .

What an awesome time! Good people music and energy

Calvin Teoh

Great on a weeknight, avoid at all costs on a Friday or Saturday. Unless you are creep, then you can join the other creeps there.

Patrick Hayes

The bathrooms are easy to enter and hard to exit. Which is the opposite of what you want in a bathroom .

Amazing Brazilian vibes. Only downside is the size; it's very crowded with hardly any room to dance. Also note that the watermelon drink everyone recommends is basically vodka w/ a splash of fruit. - Omari Allen
