Free personal pizzas.
Cindy Z.

Free mini personal pizza with each drink? Say less. We came here to start off the night around 8pm on a Saturday. It was crowded, but the bartenders worked really quick to get everyone's orders. I had shots and mixed drinks throughout the night where we accumulated so many pizza tickets. Mixed drinks were $9 and they had 4 shot deals for only $25. There's also a variety of beer and shot deals all for under $10. Seriously, it's such a good deal to come drink here. For each drink, you also get a red ticket to claim a mini personal pizza. For the pizza, head over to the pizza oven and say how many cheese pizza you want and hand over the tickets. Note that you can only order one pizza per person at a time, so you can get it for the whole group or saving it for later. Despite that, the pizzas came out quick! We went back a few more times and some time we had to wait 10 minutes. Either way, I'm not complaining because it's free. Even without much expectation, the pizza is delicious! It's thin, crispy, and full of flavor for being just sauce and cheese. I seriously love this spot and will definitely make my way over whenever I'm in Williamsburg. It's such a fun, affordable, and yummy spot!

Pizza and s*x in brooklyn drink

This was my first time going our in Williamsburg! My friends and I got there around 9pm on a Friday and it was not too crowded. Bartenders were quick with our drinks and very efficient. For $10ish, you get a drink and a personal pizza! Pros: -affordable drinks ($10 cocktails and $8 mixed drinks) -PIZZA with drinks -music was not too loud, you can still talk and hear conversation -pool table and karaoke available Considerations -would LOVE if they had a (free) coat rack available that we can all risk our coats on... this is NYC after all... it gets cold. or even like hooks under the tables -some of the tables were wobbly so get those screws tightened When we left around midnight, it was very crowded. If we arrived then, we wouldn't have enjoyed it as much as we did.

Pizza comes with the purchase of a drink

My friends brought me here on a Thurs night, the drinks were decently priced ($7-10) and the best part is that you get a ticket for a cheese personal sized pizza!! The front room had a pool table and the back room had karaoke and a photo booth. Def fun place to stop by while bae hopping!

thank you alligator lounge

My boyfriend dragged me to this bar on our NYC vacation because of a tv show he really likes. I wasn't sure if I would enjoy myself here, but I ended up having a pretty memorable experience! Drinks are very reasonably priced and you get a free pizza with every drink purchase. They also have karaoke which I loved. Service was great!

My friend invited me to a Bingo Night, and I had freaking blast. The bartender is the reason one star was taking off because he seemed like he was over it by the time we pulled up. Which is fine; I get it (he was by himself), but it wasn't a busy, busy night. If youvorder a drink you a get FREE pizza but toppings are $1.00 each that you ONLY buy the bar. The pepperoni was slamming in general. It's a typical bar so the atmosphere was cool and open. The have an outside also..

Beer

This was a fun bar to hang out in on a Friday night. The best part was that you got a free pizza for every beer ordered. Their beer selection is pretty good here, too. I tried two different IPA ones, and they both tasted great. The beer prices were not that expensive either. Since the pizzas we had were free, you only had to pay $1 for a topping, so we tried the pepperoni and sausage. I must say, for a free pizza, they were very good. The perfect food to have after having some beers. We were sitting at the bar area while hanging out, and it was pretty spacious. The bartenders were nice and efficient in asking if we wanted additional drinks. Overall, we had a great time here. This is a fun spot, and I would come back again.

The Alligator Lounge is a great (and super cheap) spot! I've been several times for their Monday night trivia at 8pm which is always a good time. Be warned though that the trivia does tend to run rather long and usually takes around 3 hours. They also have a pool table! But the real reason you should come to this place is because every drink comes with a free personal pizza. Even $5 beers include a pizza! This place feels inflation-proof and you really can't find a better deal anywhere else. I will say that the pizzas are definitely more on the light side (honestly, they could use more sauce and cheese) but who am I to complain about a $5 beer and pizza combo.

Walked into Black Rabbit on a Saturday night around 8pm to grab cocktails ahead of meeting friends…read moreout later in the evening. The cocktail menu included a selection of martinis, including a pickle martini which I knew I had to get and happy I did so as it was perfectly made. The ambiance was dark and mysterious with various black rabbit themed decorations of art and taxidermy lining the rustic and wooden walls. The bartender was very friendly and service was quick and smooth. The pickle martini itself was delicious and I could've ordered several if I wasn't pacing myself for a longer night ahead. The bar food menu included a selection of cheeses as well as mini burgers which I personally opted for and exceeded my expectations. After the martini and grub we opted for a couple of their draft beers which were also a great choice. By the time we were leaving, the bar was full and there was a lively birthday party being hosted in the back. I'd recommend black rabbit for any type of evening you're looking to have.

Nice place to visit while in Greenpoint. Inside is exactly the way I like it. Dark ambiance. Old…read moreschool booths with swinging doors. Outside is a nice size space for day drinking with a large group Crowd is great, service attentive and they make a mean Moscow Mule. I haven't tried the food yet but am eyeing the pimento cheese next visit!

What was formerly known as Capri Social Club is so normal looking you wouldn't necessarily…read moreunderstand it's cult favorite status in the neighborhood at first glance. Understated would be the best descriptor for this bar known for their PBR's and cheap beer+shot combos. In fact this has been the site of many film sets, chosen for its non regionally specific qualities because from the outside and inside it really does feel like it can be as much a bar located in a town many states over as one right here in Brooklyn, a little out of place among the new buildings and new age cocktail bars that populate the Greenpoint. It isn't just one demographic that you'll find filling most of the seats here either. Different age groups, personalities and backgrounds will find themselves here, much like the makeup of the surrounding neighborhood. A great equalizer of a bar, which is part of the draw. That you can have a raucous conversation with folks you may not otherwise find yourselves rubbing elbows with.

This bar is lame! People keep telling me "oh it's for locals" or "oh, this is a blue collar place",…read moreand I don't buy any of the excuses. It's just not fun, and the thought of it being any sort of "social club" (See: previous name, categorization on Yelp) is complete hogwash. I mean, they do beer/shot combos for cheap. That's cool I guess, but I had quickly learned it's what half the dives are adhering to. I don't care if their draught selection is sparse, what gets me is how tiny the pours are. I do not think it was even a full 12 oz in my little mug. Maybe 10. Can someone measure this out for me? Goodness gracious I don't like paying pint prices to get just over half a pint. Liquor selection blows. It's cash only, which you'd only know from a very small, inconspicuous sign above the register. And to make matters worse, their ATM was down! And they were completely unaware. Goodness gracious, I'd never come back here.
