Kelsey✨

Love this divey, dog-friendly bar in Williamsburg! Games, darts , cheese puffs and 2 diff. brands of gluten-free beer ????

Brendan Lewis

This place is heaven. Lone Star Beer AND Miller High Life AND Bologna & Cheese Sandwiches on Wonder Bread with Miracle Whip AND bowls of cheese puffs

brittany

Local haunt offering cheese puffs , Jenga , screamo music (to scare the manhattanites away) and the $5 sportsman (beer + whiskey shot) -- what more could you ask for?

Village Voice

Boasting an impressive (& still cheap ) craft beer list , order the chili drenched Frito pie , enjoy the free cheese balls and make sure to try the house specialty : Beam Cream (Jim Beam & Cream Soda )!

Sheyla Concepcion

It's open for most of the day. The music is great and the location is even better. It's a great place to end your night if you're in Williamsburg.

Gothamist

Crank up some Bikini Kill, X-Ray Spex or Stiff Little Fingers on the jukebox and stuff your face full of complimentary cheeseballs until they shuffle out. Read more

Jana Taylor

Cheese balls , games and great drink specials available at all times!!! Come in you will definitely have a great time. Bring a group and play the board game Drinkopoly it will not disappoint!

Brandon Papworth

Great atmosphere keeping the dive bar dream alive despite new families taking over Williamsburg

Will Scholl

Cheap (gross) whiskey and beer combos. Eat handfuls of cheese balls to mask the taste.

Chris Karcz

Play Jenga , Connect Four, or other fun games while you're drinking cheap beer and eating cheese balls . If the bartenders like you, you'll even get a cozy for your beer . Any questions?

The sportsman is a shot + beer combo for $4. You can't go wrong. Make sure you get a cozy with your beer .

David Guerrieri

Buck hunt, pool, Jenga ! You really can't beat this place, atmosphere of a dive bar but it's clean warm, and homey !

Hailey Caldwell

CHEESE BALLS. It's almost terrible because I can never stop eating them. Such a fun dive bar in Brooklyn, and pretty great drink specials .

Joel Lewis

Cheap drinks , darts , pool, games and a patio - perfect place for a group

Tom Conte

Free cheese puffs , good tunes , and the smell of BO. The perfect dive bar in Williamsburg.

Michael Haarala

Great beer + shot deals, free koozies and cheeseballs – solid Williamsburg dive!

shea

When you don't feel like being classy (& you feel like running into everyone you know) this is the place to go. Plus, they have super cheap vegetarian bar food (& a backyard ).

Luis Mendoza

Get cheese balls and beers with friends. You can also buy a friend a drink in advance, their name goes up on a chalk board and they have 30 days to redeem! + So much good food.

Marissa H

At the reopening of the levee.. Clearly every one also wanted to welcome them back. Its packed at 11:30.Anyways the Dreamsicle house drink is awesome.

Vlad

The music sometimes is strange, but bartenders are friendly and you always get a snack for your beer ????

Critics' Pick winner of The Village Voice Best of NYC 2012 Best Smoking Patio !

Good beer & shot specials, Happy Hour every day and random drinks like a Gatorita (tequila with lemon/lime Gatorade)

Ryan Ambs

Black label is what you want. Also make sure to lick your fingers after each handful of cheese balls .

Jack Osborne

They might have closed the back yard but is this still the greatest dive bar ever established? You betcha.

Jackson Isaacson

Great dive bar with excellent shot + beer specials to get you going for the night :)

Ben Gasparini

Divey but cool and open very late. Pool table and free cheese puffs and other snacks .

j'aime

cheeseballs for one and all!!!! also various beer/shot combos with clever names. beware the morning after those $5 beauties (ie a bottle of Texas Lonestar with a shot of tequila )...

Steven Lambiase

better during the day these days. Grab a beer shot combo for $5 and play some pool

Fun metal-ish bar . Free cheese balls ! Tom and I used to drink here almost every night.

Come hang at this joint before the yups completely takeover. Beer as cheap as $2! Frito pie and sloppy joes pair well with cheap beer . A friendly tip from BoozeParty.net

Came for the pitchers (who doesn't love a friends and pitchers ?), stayed for the cheeseballs.

Tom Meng

Drink some Gatoritas to quench your thirst.

Zack Sheppard

They have Big Buck HD, but it's not connected to the internet! Great for casual games but take your league play elsewhere.

qwertney

Frito pie . It's a bed of Fritos topped with cheese and chili . Get one. Play Buckhunter. Be cool.

Nicole Formica

PBR and cheese balls ...is there anything else that needs to be said?

Emily Kane

Reasonably priced drinks and cheese balls for days. It's heavenly.

$1 off from 7-9 on drinks that are already cheap for New York prices? Yes please! And these drinks are NOT watered down, so you definitely get your money's worth.
