When people talk about LOVING Williamsburg or HATING Williamsburg, this is pretty much what they're talking about. It's a cool space, and the back garden is great, and if you go right after work, it's not such a bad place for a drink. However, after the hipster hordes descend on it later in the night, it's pretty much insufferable if you're over 25. Bartenders aren't especially friendly, and the lines for the bathroom are always mysteriously long.
