What People Are Saying About Metropolitan

In Short – The heart of Williamsburg has adopted this hangout with open arms. A mix of gay and straight hipsters flock to the laid-back space, where all sorts of nightlife bonuses await. Two fireplaces, a pool table, intimate lounges and a checkerboard dance floor--which gets packed during weekend dance parties--conjure a flirty and friendly mood. But the large, leafy backyard and multilevel outdoor deck are the biggest draws, and affordable drink prices the cherry on top.

Down-to-earth bar

by justinh

Great spot, my favorite gay bar in the city. Great beer selection, friendly bartenders, a mixed crowd (woman-friendly) and a lush back garden where they do BBQ in the summers. Best of all, it's always lively without ever being so packed you can't move.
