Best Brooklyn Bar

by tomtomslug at Citysearch

Hands down the best bar in Brooklyn. I've been coming to LL for a couple years, and have always had a great time. Service, drinks and music are always top shelf.

• Pros: Service, staff, music and atmosphere
• Cons: none

Rude Staff!!!

by djdrew at Citysearch

I agree with the last review. My friends and I visited Larry Lawerence bar last night and could not believe how incredibly rude, disrespectful and condesending the bartender was to my party. To top it off, it was in front of the owner which leads me to believe that this in an acceptable form of behavior towards the customers. Save your time and money and head elsewhere because there are tons of other bars in the Williamsburg area where they will treat you with respect!!

• Pros: nada
• Cons: the staff and owner of the joint

Down the tubes goes another Burg staple.

by jayabond at Citysearch

I must say I tried giving this joint multiple chances over the last year or so. I use to love it, and even after I moved to Fort Greene I would still make the trip to enjoy it. But, now the vibe and energy of the place is that of a members only mens social club. Aside from the fact that I think they have been playing the same music for the last 3 years, the staff is by large the rudest in years.

Although it does have a great smoking area (it's only saving grace) I would not recommend even my ex boyfriends go here. I have too much respect for even people I loathe.

• Pros: Outdoor Smoking Area
• Cons: The place in general

My new favorite bar

by michaeligor at Citysearch

I just moved to the neighborhood, and this is hands down my new favorite bar. The space is awesome, the drinks are pretty cheap for the area, the crowd is mellow and friendly, and the bartenders are extremely cool. It's a great place to hang with friends or to make some new ones; everyone feels like members of a secret club - if you can find the door! Love it love it.

• Pros: great people (attractive too!) great vibe, outdoor smoking 'lounge,'

Great for Birthday Parties!

by amylala at Citysearch

I recently had my birthday party there and it was great...I called a couple of weeks in advance and they reserved the back room for us and there was a staff member who was assigned to make sure we were content all night...the staff were all wonderful and the place wasn't too overly crowded. All of my guests raved about what a great bar it is and how much fun they had...great place!

• Pros: It's cheap, the crowd is great, the staff is wonderful, the abience is nice
• Cons: it's hard to find a cab home from there, bar could be better stocked
