Had a great time here, great prices on food and drinks while watching the Buffalo Bills! My friends and I decided to try new places to watch the Bills game and we came across Redd's Tavern! At first we were hesitant on going since we've never tried a Bills Backers bar out of Manhattan/ couldn't gauge what kind of crowd would be there - it ended up being a great afternoon there! It was sunny/clear skies so we sat outside and I liked that they staggered the tables so that everyone could easily watch the game. The volume is on loud enough that you can hear the plays (and your friends talking won't over power the TV's audio during plays). I'd say it was a really good set up especially for outdoors. Later on I saw a pupperoo so I'm assuming the bar is dog friendly which is a major plus?!? The food and drinks are definitely the plus side to this Bills Backers Bar- $10 Labatt Blue pitchers, $25 for the larger iced dispenser contraption! And I think $10 for the wings. read more

Hey went on a night that the Knick's were playing and the joint was a real NY vibe. Sat down with the owner and talked history of the street and enjoyed a round of shots. No food was involved but the drinks were definitely on point. read more

I have been to Redd's a handful of times but it has been quite a while since I was last there (until earlier this evening) and I was a bit disappointed. PROS: -great prices on beer and mixed drinks, plus a beer and shot special which is only $7 so you really can't beat the prices! -very laid back vibe and no frills -NFL Sunday ticket for watching games on the weekend! If you are a Bills Fan they are a "Bills Bar" so you will enjoy watching those games! -They have Purple Haze on tap (this is one of my favorite beers and I rarely if ever see it on tap so that was very exciting!) CONS: -attitude of the bartender! The place was fairly empty earlier and they had 3/4 of the football games on and one of the games had ended as well and 60 minute was on the TV! I politely asked the bartender if he wouldn't mind putting on the Commanders football game (again they have the NFL package and it was not busy at all). He rolled his eyes and in a huffy response said he would try to change it...long story short he never even attempted to change the channel--I wouldn't advise you to go here for Sunday football if you are interested in watching a game that is not very popular... -Cash only--this is a major bummer as they never used to be cash only... -Ambiance-It is so dark and dingy in there you can barely see what you are drinking, it is pretty depressing...I understand this might be more of a neighborhood bar but it does not seem friendly to those who come from time to time read more

Just wanted to update my review. This place is still awesome. Still a cool vibe with good, cheap drinks. Just one thing has changed. It's now cash only, which I get, but still a bummer. Had to use the grimey ATM there. Also, that digital jukebox kicks butt. It has pretty much any song you can think of. Plus, you can take pictures on it and then have them sent to your email. Pretty cool! read more

This is a dive bar that actually has great drinks. I came here with a few friends at the end of the night, and we were each pleasantly surprised by how delicious our drinks were (and how cheap!). I had the lavender rum punch. It had a delicious herbal taste and was as good as many of the overpriced drinks I have had in Manhattan. My friend had the hot cider spiked with coconut rum. The combo sounds weird, but it tasted great. My other friend got a beer and was happy. Server was also very friendly. All in all, this is a great place for tasty drinks that doesn't break the bank. read more

Redd's - Lavender rum punch - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great bar a good spot to watch sports! Outdoor seating was nice and the drinks are very well priced with good food options. We got the empanada and it was awesome. The beer & shot combos were great but my favorite part was the staff who were all super cool and provided great service throughout the football game. It is a Buffalo Bills bar so this is worth noting for any fans of other New York football teams read more

Redd's - Patio - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Williamsburg Hiphop Dive Bar. A strange concept. But it works. Mostly regulars out back. Cool group of people. Cheap drinks. Always good old school hip hop music playing. Check it out read more

I think this place may be the last great neighborhood bar. I mean it's got some high impact action sports like Skee Ball, Pool and Darts. Bonus: The back yard offers the freshest air on Grand Ave. The drinks are killer and Jen may be the best bartender in NYC. This is my spot to hit up before and after and sometimes during. read more

Awesome lowkey bar with lots to do. The bartenders are always so friendly and service is excellent. There's a pool table in the back, so just claim your spot by chalking up your name on the board. There's also a foosball table and skeeball machine which both take quarters. I don't believe they have a kitchen, but have seen people bring in food from other places. No credit card minimum here! Cocktails are nicely priced- $6-8 and all made very well. read more

Redd's - Moscow mule - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is one of my favorite go to bars in Williamsburg! The drinks are really great prices. Cocktail are $7-8, I personally love the Painkiller and the Tea-Bag in the summertime. I really like that they have touchtunes so I can play my music. It's a Buffalo Bills bar and great if like me, you wanna go out for drinks and your boyfriend wants to watch football or hockey. There's also a pool table, darts and a back yard. read more

I like this bar, its less packed and has more games than alot of other bars in the city. They have darts, megatouch, pool, foosball, and a skeeball machine where if you score 300 you get a free beer, so if youre really lucky its $0.50 cents beer! I like the vibe and the fact that they have cider beer! Bathrooms were clean when i went and it looks like a local neighborhood bar. I would definitely come back and I would definitely recommend others to. read more

Redd's - Cider beer - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Redd's is a laid back neighborhood spot where you can watch sports, play bar games, and drink strong cheap drinks. What more could you want. Welcoming to all types. read more

Redd's is a nice, divey (in a good way), neighborhood bar that does it right. Drinks are cheap, good, and the bartenders are very attentive. They have free popcorn which is a nice touch. I go here after my dodgeball games on Thursdays and it's always a relaxed and chilled atmosphere. They have a pool table and dart board in the back and they set up tables for us to play beer pong and flip cup. For a small bar, they also have a lot of TV's so it's great place to watch a game. They don't serve food, but you're more than welcome to bring outside food (there's Chinese, Mexican, pizza, etc. all on the same block). Just an overall very fun bar with a good vibe. read more

I went for my first Bills game today and they were SUPER BUSY. Usually in NYC a busy bar means a-hole bartenders...INCORRECT. The bartenders were so nice despite everything going on, Bills won, drink specials were great. All around this was a super fun and friendly bar during NFL season. read more

This place has all that you need if you just want a couple of drinks and to chill out. They have some old-school skeeball and a beat up pool table but what you're coming here (or at least should be your focus), are the inexpensive and very stiff poured drinks. Thats the reason you come to Redds. To be away from the bros in the area and to have a couple of cheap drinks. This place is going to be my new neighborhood spot for great drinks. I am looking forward to that. read more

Redd's is what some might call a "townie bar." Well... like if Redd's was located in a small Northeast town, not in Williamsburg. You'll find locals (it's an older crowd), not hipster transplants. The backyard area is amazing and while a lot of folks like smoking in the back, it's worth the exposure to second hand smoking, I think. It feels like it's just your friend's backyard. Also, drinks are cheap. read more

Redd's - Outdoor area is bombbb - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I've been coming here FOR YEARS! and idk who that new bartender is but she's so fucking rude and it's truly disgusting. I recommend this spot to a few friends & they all say the same exact thing. Hire some extrovert bartenders who are actually cool af! Where my girl at with the red hair , i like her better !!! read more

So me and my roommate are seriously considering making the move to Brooklyn the more we run into great establishments like Redd;s It's such a clean local bar! Like really clean! It doesn't smell like a meat market or a dive either. I'm totally in love with the dark interior. They have Blue Moon on tap, a rarity these days. And the bar is GIANT! Seriously spans 3/4 the length of the room. A friend of mine who lives nearby was able to organize a small get-together here yesterday so we could watch the Kentucky Derby. (YAY BIG BROWN!) Our joyous time was diminished when the party favorite, Eight Belles (RIP) broke both her front ankles after coming in 2nd and was immediately euthanised. Then the whole party turned kind of weird. I was rooting for Big Brown but I was sad for Eight Belles and all I wanted was another Blue Moon but our bartender was painfuly unattentive. But I've decided it's because he was so sad about our girl EB. We did our best to distract ourselves and play spectator in a pool foursome my friends put together. Playing some eight ball for eight belles served to ease the pain a bit. And the quality indie music was a good distraction. Early evening on a dreary Saturday it's not too busy. So if you're in the neighborhood, stop by. Skeeball. Darts. Pool. And I may have even spied Pinball. Oh and my pint was only 3 dollars! What?! You 'Burg hipsters really know how to treat an uptown girl. read more

Wow, normally I like this place for a couple pints after work, but beware of Meegan, the bartender in the middle of the week. She's a huge jerk if you don't hear last call. I work as a bar tender around the corner & am used to bars being open until 4. I ordered a round at about 1:40 and was treated as if I had spit on her mother's grave. Apparently she had called last call (despite the fact that no one I was with heard her) and she actually raised her voice when I simply asked. She eventually made fun of my weight (I am fat, granted) and called me an asshole. All because I said I didn't hear her. If she's your bar tender, don't tip her. Honestly, I don't think she deserves to be employed. I would never treat a customer that way. I want to emphasize how I work in the service industry. read more

This place is meh. Nothing particularly fantastic about it - and I would give it a better review were the bartender willing to give me a beer-back. Maybe it's just me but I figure if we're dropping a lot of $ into this joint and I'm lining up shots, it's not an unfair request for a beer-back. I don't need a full beer or anything but even the acknowledgment of one goes a long way. There are some fine points here. 1. Skee-ball. More on that later. 2. Buck Hunter. 3. Photo Hunt. 4. Free popcorn. Now, the highlight of the evening. After spending an ungodly amount of money in Skee-ball in an attempt to win a free Coors Light (you get one if you score 300 points which is almost impossible), I did it. I mean, I really did it. I scored 300 motherfucking points. I did a victory lap. We weren't leaving until one of us got a free beer (going back to the beer-back thing) and I did it. I couldn't be more proud of myself. read more

Redd's: $4 Knob Creek until 10pm on Weeknights. Are you trying to kill me?! read more

My friends and I stop by Redd's whenever we are in the neighborhood (which is not at all often). Free pizza (not sure when, but I do believe that it's a regular "thing"), free popcorn, cheap drinks, Buck Hunter, and Skee-Ball. read more

4.5 stars.... close to a subway, 50 cent skeeball, buck hunter, photo hunt, large back patio, darts, pool, $3 Coors light drafts, free popcorn, and 25 cent candy machines (might skip that one)....'nuff said (oh and if you hit at least 300 on skeeball you win a free drink) (unfortunately there are are negatives like the fact that the skeeball table isn't in the best conditionb, the darts they have are cheap plastic ones, and I'm not too sure about the crowd here, but none of those things will deter more than a half star from my rating) UPDATE: I came back here and couldn't get a drink for awhile because the bartender was outside chatting and couldn't try the popcorn because no one refilled it. I still love the place but still can't round up to 5 stars read more

290, 290, 290, 120 (stoned), 290, 290- Thats all I can get at fuckin skee-ball. I remember rolling the high scores at arcades across the country- 440- Riverside Park- Agawam, MA 450- Dollywood- Pigeon Forge, TN 490- Cedar Point- Sandusky, OH But lo and behold- my arm is not what it used to be- and the bounce spot may be a little soft- I cant get the free drink. Reminds me of a cleaner version of the Mark Bar near my house, which I love. too clean to be a dive bar- more sports bar- real heavy couch for some real heavy petting. read more

This place is horrible. The service is lousy, the beer is terrible (but cheap) and the owner is classless, rude, and uncouth. In a neighborhood full of awesome bars, why? They ought to put in an Arby's. read more

Why wasn't this place crowded at midnight on a Saturday? The sign reading "$3 pints and $3 shots" lured us in. Come to find out the specials only include Bud Light and cheap whiskey, but hey, this is New York. Will update this review with the regular prices if I end up back there. Place was clean and had pool, a few arcade games, and a chatty bartender. Gave us crackers for free, haha. Crowd looked to be mostly late 20's to early 30's. read more

I was planning on going there with my friends and hanging out, but tried to call ahead for TWO days to see if they allow dogs. Nobody answered the phone and every time I called it would continuously ring before going to a busy signal. Come the day of I decided I would try anyways, because I'm not getting any answers through other means, I show up and the bartender gets indignant with ME for trying to bring a dog. read more

The first time I was there an incredibly awkward and weird fight broke out among two men sitting at a table out back. They both stood up, angry, and then one shoved the other, put him in a headlock, and proceeded to stick his fingers in his mouth. The head-locked gentleman responded by starting to bite the head-locker's fingers. That's when I went inside to get the bartender. Apparently while I was gone both men admitted that they were gay and their fathers' were veterans. That did not seem to quell the tension between them. They were then kicked out. Apparently this is an INCREDIBLY rare occurrence here. This last time I was here it was incredibly chill and relaxed. A good place to hang with friends. read more

My athletic prowess is concentrated in the form of foosball mastery. That's a challenge. If you beat me on aTuesday I'll buy you a beer....just ask for Arthur If I beat you I'll question an existence spent writing yelp reviews and playing bar games...please...someone beat me at foosball read more

You know what's awesome? SPEED SKEE BALL! It's when you play many many rounds of skee ball at Redds as fast as you can (this evolved after the almost as fun No Blinking Skee Ball) - I won with a score of 210! Go me! Drinks were just ok, but its not fair to judge since I'm the nerd who ordered a Mimosa... read more

I spent a few hours here last night and it was great. It was surprisingly empty for a Saturday night. The bartenders were very nice, the pool is cheap and casual, darts and skeeball are always a good time. The backyard patio is amazing. All those things are nice, but it's a sweet bar because it's got a great laid-back atmosphere. No huge crowds, no expensive bar tabs, no super-tacky decor.... Go grab a pint. read more

Solid bar, stumbled in last weekend after having a few drinks elsewhere. My friend wanted to play pool so I looked up places nearby with a table or two. We walked over and were surprised that this bar wasn't very crowded just like others had stated in previous reviews. We got served immediately, pretty cheap drinks too, and each time I returned to the bar he remembered my drink and tab name. We ordered nine mixed drinks between three of us and our tab was $33 before tip. I'd have to say this was the cheapest bar I had been to in all of New York. We played a few games of pool, but mostly hovered around the skeeball machine while we were inside. We also spent quite a bit of time outside on the back patio. It was a great place to sit to soak up one of the last warm nights of summer. We headed out of there and were happy, buzzed and ready to party. read more

It's been a long time since I've been to Redd's. Not since my roommates moved back to LA in fact. Back then it was imperative to have a tv near by with a sports game on. I wasn't really into football, but let me tell you, I was all about some Photo Hunt. My roommates and I have since moved on but not much has changed at Redd's since then. Photo Hunt is sadly gone but skee ball is a welcome replacement. Skee ball. Take that Barcade! read more

Redd's - Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Came here on a random evening after eating at the French restaurant up the street. The guy behind the bar was really nice. It seemed like everyone here knew each other from somewhere which felt really cozy and the crowd was so nice! People were so easy to talk to and funny. It's good to go to a bar and feel like we're old friends. My boyfriend and I played some darts and watched the islander game. The prices for beer were not pricey and overall we enjoyed this bar. read more

Pretty good, low-key bar. Went here after Barcade to investigate if the rumors of Skee-Ball were true (ah, the life of a skeptic). Average price beers, a few TVs set up to watch some sports game, a couch, some random objects (part of a gas station?) all give it a pretty good ambiance. Pool table too. I would definitely come back. Not a particularly outstanding place, but a good place to regroup and just chill out. Also, no one complained when I brought in potato chips from the deli next door. read more

Chris L said it best: "Perfect. But please stay away." I can deal with a cranky bartender every now and again if it means not having to go to a bar that's shoulder to shoulder on a Friday night AND happens to give away free beers for a skeeball score of 300+. If you have any skeeball skills at all, you'll be opaying 50 cents for beer all night. the end. read more
