Good bars in Williamsburg, Brooklyn

June 5, 2013 9:52 AM

Seeking a good bar or bars in Williamsburg, Brooklyn for this Saturday night. We're a group of about eight (for a decidedly non-rowdy bachelor party), and we'll be wrapping up dinner at Cubana Socíal (N. 6th & Wythe) at around 10:30 or so. We'd love to head to a place somewhere within reasonable walking distance that's fairly low key, not overpriced, not terribly loud, and (this is the holy grail, right?) not super-crowded. I'd be grateful for any recommendations. Thank you!

The Gibson. But don't tell anyone. The good news is that it's close enough to a number of other bars in case it somehow gets insane. Just avoid The Wythe Hotel etc.

Crown Vic, on S 2nd and Wythe. Has loads of outdoor space, reasonably priced, tasty food. It was formerly a garage for police cars. I know the owners and they're good folks.

I'm partial to Fabbrica, but then it's right across the street from my apartment.

The Levee may be a little too loud, but they have great beer and shot deals and it's usually not crazy crazy.
