You'd never know from the outside that this place has one of the best outdoor, finished backyard decks in Williamsburg.

A perfect neighborhood bar with friendly bartenders. Enjoy decently priced drinks in their gigantic backyard patio or play a few games of Shuffle-Bowling.

Quite possibly the perfect bar. Big patio, doggies, shuffle inn, great jukebox, hot whiskey cider, friendly bartenders and even friendlier owners. Only thing that's missing is a popcorn machine!

LJ's is a neighborhood hang dedicated to no-frills, straight-ahead boozin with a vintage Shuffle Bowling machine and a dimly-lit bar made from reclaimed 100-yr-old Virginian wood. Read more

Let those around the house give you the experience you didn't come for. That's how they do, every fixup is a foot up and out the door for more! Pour me another.

Get two-for-$5 cans of Lionshead. Hang with Sam, Miles, Kahlen, Troy and everyone. They're some of the coolest, most down-to-earth people you'll meet on Grand Street.

Bartenders have been pretty rude every time I've been in. Shame that, it's got a nice atmosphere otherwise. (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
