What People Are Saying About Abel River Inc
The Editor
Karen Hudes

In Short – A typical Thursday night finds this Williamsburg watering hole relatively uncrowded, with some longtime residents and a few neighborhood newbies sitting at the bar. Work by local artists decorates the one-room space, which has a pool table, Big Buck Hunter video game and a jukebox with a solid rock mix. Tuesdays bring the wildest crowd--a hip, gay pajama party in which men and women often get down to their underwear.

I love this bar. The owners make you feel right at home. 2 for 1 Beer Happy Hour till 9pm gets the day or night started. The regulars (locals and newbies) are friendly and funny. There's always a soft-tip dart game or pool game going. The jukebox is cranking with all kinds of good music. On Sundays there's free homemade food that varies week by week. It's free and good. Wednesday is Guitar Hero nite - it's awesome you can play and compete. I am a regular now.
- Pros: Friendly, fun and a bargain
- Cons: Needs Buck Hunter
