BABA

Night of Joy is an antique-filled cocktail bar with a seasonal roof patio and frozen margaritas that become one of Williamsburg’s best-value happy hour plays. With herb-infused spirits, $7-ish frozen drinks early in the evening, and a crowd that ramps up quickly, it’s a go-to pre-dinner or pre-Barcade stop.
Must-Try Dishes:
Frozen Lime Margarita, Dill & Beet Vodka Cocktail, Basil & Lime Vodka Gimlet
What makes it special: Frozen margaritas and infused cocktails on a vintage-feeling rooftop patio.
Worthy Picks
7.9
We Got Company is a small, design-minded cocktail bar where daily happy hour, thoughtful drinks, and a short snack menu skew more mellow than party. It’s a strong choice when you want serious cocktails without blasting music, especially before moving on to busier Williamsburg spots.
Must-Try Dishes:
BBQ Mixed Nuts, Antipasto Plate, Tequila Chocolate Balls
What makes it special: Cocktail-focused happy hour with low-key music and snacky plates.
#6
Tacombi
7.7
Tacombi’s Williamsburg outpost brings the brand’s Yucatán-born taco stand aesthetic to a larger neighborhood space, with Baja fish, al pastor, and snacks backed by cocktails and aguas frescas. It’s not the cheapest on this list, but works when you want sit-down tacos with a bit more scene while still staying below full-on restaurant pricing.
Must-Try Dishes:
Baja fish tacos, Al pastor tacos, Elote or esquites
What makes it special: Beachy taco-stand energy with polished service and a full bar.
