Editorial Review for Alligator Lounge – by Citysearch Editors
Pink flamingoes and swimsuit-clad mannequins jut from the walls at this pizzeria-cabana club-sports bar. Free food is the great equalizer for a friendly mixed crew of artists in paint-stained overalls, local ladies shrink-wrapped in tube tops and tight jeans, and neighborhood dads in baseball jackets. Though the pies are free, the toppings will cost you ($2 for the first, $1 for each additional). Groups crowd into booths and wash down slices with well-priced pitchers of Guinness and Stella or get more beer for their buck with pitchers of Rheingold. Regulars shoot pool and watch sports at the bar, and an easygoing rock jukebox--spanning from Steely Dan to the Shins--aids the digestive process.

Well sorry but a lot of bars do not allow children/babies into their bars. Perhaps you can start a bar that is baby friendly!!! Sounds like a great a idea-Have a place where hipster parents can bring in their children and drink. I don't think you will win any Parent of Year awards by starting this trend. Sorry, call me old fashioned, but sort of getting tired seeing Williamsburg parents acting like 21 year olds by bringing in their children into bars and then getting angry/distraught when they are not allowed. By the way, right across the street there is a pizza place and also two blocks away-perhaps that is the proper place to have children eat because children shouldn't think its the norm to see mom and dad drink at a bar during the afternoon. By the way ask the manager next time-he will tell you the same thing. And I really doubt, the bartender saw you with your baby going up to the bar, let you order the beer and pizza and then said you had to leave. Doesn't make sense. If you didn't want to give up your drinking in a bar phase, perhaps you shouldn't have had children.
Pros: Free Pizza
Cons: Hearing the "You can have whatever you want" song

Malibu Ursie .. please ask for the manager in this instance. As an owner, I can tell you this isn't policy, just an out of line bartender. You can curse the darkness in citysearch, but it doen't get fixed until you talk to the management !
