Editorial Review for Royal Oak – by Meg Duffy

In Short
A discreet entrance masks the casual bar's spacious interior. Dimly-lit brass fixtures, red textured wallpaper and wood paneling give Royal Oak the feel of a 1930s speakeasy. Red leather booths and intimate tables are spread throughout the bar's three rooms. With weekly special events and a wide array of live music and rock DJs, the watering hole brings in Williamsburg locals by the dozens. Beers on tap are from Germany, England and Belgium.

User Reviews for Royal Oak

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Sorry we are not in Long Island and you are not going to find girls with fake nails, boys with "blowouts", and Usher remixes here ! UMMM it is in Williamsburg so yes, there will be hipsters but not everyone. It has great music and nice bartenders. This place is great. I'm 24 and I have never felt there were junior high school student's there. People need to calm down, enjoy a beer, and dance their a$$ off!

Pros: Fun, Close by, beer specials, great dance music...

Cons: Haters...HA

When you roll by Royal Oak after midnight be ready for the backroom dance party. On weekend nights you'll find no shortage of dark-haired beauties in bad need of a dance partner. The best course of actions is to dance a few quick numbers with her then suggest a sejourn to a darkened booth for some drug-sharing or below-the-waist adventuring.

Pros: girls wearing tight pants and boys wearing tight pants and I live only a few blocks away

Cons: the lost and found would be better named "lost and never found" but I bought a new handball glove last week so they can have it
