Came on a casual Tuesday, the bar was 4 people as well as two bartenders and I'm assuming a coworker (They chatted the entire time and were eating outside food together at the bar?). The bar was pretty empty, asked for the one booth in the building and was told its reserved for large parties (at 8pm on a Tuesday) (not one customer came in after we did) Immediately after, I was rudely approached about my service animal, and after informing them it was a HYPOALLERGENIC service animal, was told "sorry our bartenders are allergic", stayed any way because my date picked the spot. Worst espresso martini I've ever had (coming from a former bartender) and the vibes were rancid, will not be coming back here. read more

Cool cozy quiet unassuming bar. Very nice cocktails and my party of 4 middle of Saturday afternoon were delighted to have found this place. Bartending staff were all very hospitable. read more

Happy hour happy hour happy hour! Popped in for a drink and it was a dope spot. The bar tender knew every customer except me lol. Folks were hanging out, definitely felt very neighborhoody which i love. They have a menu of solid drinks, and small bar bites. It's a spot that I assume many folks in the neighborhood consider home. A place to shake off a rough day of work, pregame with friends, or have weekly date nights. Super solid liquor selection and bar tender was helpful and nice! read more

I agree with another reviewer who said, "We've Got Company is the kind of bar you almost don't want to tell anyone about, but can't help raving about." First off, the bartenders here are so chill and real. Nothing pretentious about this place. Maybe this could be like the Williamsburg version of "Cheers," as this is definitely a place where neighborhood people come, rather than tourists or influencers. Yes, it was a Tuesday night, but I still get that vibe. And even for a Tuesday, it was not crowded AT ALL and they were still open until 2 AM! They have soooo many drinks and I am impressed by the number of cocktails they serve, and how different they all are. They have vodka, tequila, gin, whiskey, scotch, bourbon, rum, and any type of liquor you could think of. Made with flavors of sweet pepper, strawberry, vanilla, vermouth, cucumber, ginger, agave, and even apple cider vinegar. I had a few, and they were all stellar. The Swayze was not a drink I would normally try, but with that name and the interesting ingredient list (green chartreuse, suze, falernum, apple bitters, and sparkling wine)--had to try it. What a weird and delightful little drink! Another popular one that I liked was the Strawberry Letter (tequila, strawberry, habanero, agave, lemon). It was fruity, but not too sweet, and I think would please most anybody in your party. Even their sazerac was pretty damn good. No food outside of bar snacks here. Prices super reasonable at 14-18 dollars. You can't go wrong with this place. Drinks STELLAR. Vibes IMMACULATE. read more

I came here on a Tuesday night for drinks with a friend. Thank God they had a few tables outside because it was a warm day in April and there was no A/C inside, so it was HOT! They had quite a few craft cocktails, but I opted for a glass of wine, which was very good. read more

My friends and I had a terrible experience at We Got Company in Brooklyn. One friend went inside first and was told the bar was "at capacity." But while she was outside explaining that to us, several white patrons were allowed in with no issue. When the rest of our group arrived (six of us total), we sat outside trying to figure out what to do. The bartender came out, said again they were "at capacity," and spoke to us aggressively. When my friend calmly asked why others were being let in, he responded, "You must not be told no often." It was clear the issue wasn't capacity, it was race. Other people of color who tried to enter were also turned away, while white customers were welcomed and served. This place was openly discriminatory and unwelcoming. In a neighborhood as diverse as Williamsburg, that's unacceptable. I would give zero stars if I could. read more

Best bar in Williamsburg. I stop by here everytime I am in town. They have the best Penicilin, and I always get their BBQ nuts mix with it...a killer combo. The staff has that BK cool, and the music is great. It's the kinda bar you want to become a regular at. Bonus tip: Try the "Thinking About You." A very unique and beautiful drink read more

TLDR: a male bartender here called me a b**** and told me to get the f*** out after him and another male bartender were wildly rude and unprofessional to my group for an hour. i didn't believe the previous reviews about this and basically FAFO by going for a cocktail on my birthday. *full review* i popped in with a group to have a cocktail before a comedy show and turns out the joke was on us. i've never encountered more vile, bitter people than the male bartenders there. from the beginning the two acted like having 10 people ordering drinks in an otherwise empty bar was their absolute worst nightmare. with the older aged male: i've never had a worse encounter with such an unprofessional, madman of a bartender who's so dissatisfied with life that he has to take it out on his customers, particular the women. after a ridiculously unpleasant, unfriendly hour (wanted to finish my $20 cocktail before leaving), i asked for the check. we told them the amount of people who would be coming, asked if separate checks were possible as we were just doing one round here before leaving. the younger male and a woman confirmed that was all good and that they were keeping track (they force you to do sit down/table service anyway). however they immediately stopped coming up to get orders from us after a few people ordered and it was confusing because the bar was pretty empty otherwise, and again you're not allowed to order at the bar. i went to pay my bill, and the older bartender was weirdly angry about it. he said "your group has been confusing since the beginning and I'm worried about even getting paid now. you need everyone to come up to the bar right now to pay". i was confused because again, i had come to him to pay and it was fairly obvious we wanted to pay and leave. after dealing with patronizing and rude attitudes from several staff, i paid my bill, and didn't tip. when he saw no tip, he called me a b**** and told me to "get the **** out". when i asked he repeat what he called me, he lied and said he didn't say anything and to stop antagonizing him at his place of work. someone then put hands on us when he left. overall 0/10, the cocktails weren't even good enough to justify all this. the margaritas and mezcal cocktails were overly sweet with no real flavor. the silver lining is that i will never have to see this man again in my life. though he does have to live with himself and i cant imagine a more unpleasant existence read more

The atmosphere is great, the bartender who served me was friendly and chatty, and he made some seriously great cocktails. It's also employee-owned, which I'm happy to support. Definitely worth a stop! read more

Tucked just off the BQE between Bedford Avenue and East Williamsburg, We've Got Company is the kind of bar you almost don't want to tell anyone about--but can't help raving about. The vibe is sultry and sophisticated, with dim candlelight casting a warm glow over a small, intimate space that's perfect for a date or solo escape. The cocktails? Flawless... and let me tell you, the Mezcal Mule is world-class--smoky, balanced, and dangerously drinkable. I'm also obsessed with their Strawberry Letter, where habanero agave meets tequila and strawberry in a perfectly fiery yet sweet dance. The Thinking About You? Smooth and peppery, and the bartender's shaking skills are a performance in itself. Service can be a little slow when it's busy, but that's because there are usually only two people working hard to keep the vibe intact. Plus, with a beer list that's just as thoughtful as their cocktails and a window seat made for people-watching, you won't mind waiting. This is not the place for rowdy groups or club vibes--it's for quiet conversation, a good book, and those who appreciate great drinks and an unpretentious atmosphere. Mature, moody, and always delicious, We've Got Company truly lives up to its name. See you by the window seat. read more

Nice classy spot for a first date. Ambiance is very nice. Service is good and the drinks are good too. I had a mezcal old fashioned and the Company Toddy (hot). I'll be back. read more

We Got Company - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Found myself in Williamsburg craving a cocktail which is a very rare circumstance for me. Wanted a lowkey spot where conversation could be held and there would be no trouble being seated. Went on a Friday around 8 or so and we just happened to walk in as a party was closing out and snagged a table. The interior is simple but quite cozy. The lighting is warm, and the bar is situated in the center with some tables by the outer walls. They post the menu outside which I really liked, and is rare for cocktail bars. Cocktails definitely are the focus here but they also have options for wine and beer. Very minimal snack menu. Loved my cocktail, though in my typical fashion I was one and done, preferring to move to beer/wine for my next beverage. The cocktails here are on the smaller side I noticed. They are standard pricing around $17 per drink. Would love to come back and sit at the bar next time! read more

My buddy and I have been coming here for 2+ years and we absolutely adore it. With wonderfully charming staff (shout out Stevie and JP!), We Got Company serves up quasi-pricey but intentionally made--and DELICIOUS-- cocktails right off the Metro-Lorimer stop on the L train. Stop by and ask for a red pepper gimlet. read more

Great for a small and intimate date. This spot near the BQE is situated between the Bedford Avenue area and East Williamsburg. It's the perfect in between spot and also is near the train! Vibes are dark with candle light setting a seductive ambiance. Servers here are usually two at most and try to accommodate the crowd best they can so be patient when it's full! Never had a drink here I didn't like. read more

We Got Company - Classic vodka martinis. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

If you're looking for a true cocktail bar in Brooklyn, here it is. We Got Company gets 5 stars from me and it's an easy 5 stars. Been coming to this bar for a few years now. It's under the radar, it's classy yet casual, music is great and the cocktails are fantastic. The ingredients are fresh and the bartenders know their craft. As if you're not already hooked, they have snacks... and good snacks! The space is small, it's dim. It's exacly what I think of when I think true cocktail bar. The space is minimally decorated but gets straight to the point. Makes you feel comfortable and important. There's bar seating, a handful of stools at the window and a few tables. It's just perfect. Their Happy Hour is a force to be reckoned with - guys, they do a weekend happy too. I mean, c'mon. Monday to Thursday: 5-7pm Friday: 4-7pm Saturday & Sunday: 2-5pm Tips *not good for groups *great happy hour menu *they have snacks *close to the train read more

Small space with cool, speakeasy vibes. There's not a lot of seating and no room to wait, so definitely get there early. The drinks were delicious. Only downside was the music. While the songs were absolutely perfect and enhanced the atmosphere, it was so loud I couldn't hear my own thoughts. Really great neighborhood spot. read more

Overall rating: 5 I am obsessed with this place! I know I'm surprised too. Me, liking a bar in Williamsburg who am I. This happy hour deal is insane, that I will be coming back over and over again. The bartender was a grumpy cat but in the best way possible. He barely asks you any questions and you can keep to yourself. The chairs are so comfortable and I love how dark it is the old fashioned was so good! And for $9!?!? Chefs kiss. Clear instructions on wifi. I've made it! Highly, highly recommend. read more

Absolutely love coming here, it's kind of a hidden gem. Really mad that I drove by it 100 times before realizing it was there. Usually go in on Mondays when they open if I'm in the area and I've never had a drink I didn't like. Always get Paul bartending, he has great conversation and always enjoy my time there! 10/10 would recommend! read more

Came here with a friend to grab some drinks. And the drinks were pretty good. They had a selection of signature cocktails. It's great for catching up or a date night. Recommend the strawberry letter, and the shrub fuse. Thinking about you was good, but it was a little too peppy for me. But if you enjoy the teeth, definitely recommend. read more

This bar is dope. Small and quaint but lovely. They really want you sitting and not standing around the bar like a normal bar, but that makes the experience so much better. They have a happy hour (even on a Friday yay). And, they have great cocktails. My partner ordered the old fashion ($9 on HH) and I ordered a Negroni sbagliato which was perfect. I highly recommend this place! read more

We Got Company - Negroni - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Good drinks but shady pricing. Went with two friends who ordered martinis for $17 and asked for dirty martinis. I asked for a tequila drink and the waiter recommended mezcal with it instead. When we finally got the check, he had upcharged the martinis +$2 for being dirty and mine +$2 for being mezcal vs tequila. For the prices of the drinks, seemed like a money grab. Unfortunately will not be going back read more

My husband and I stumbled upon this place while we were in Brooklyn. Dont let the outside fool you, its actually a very cute intimate bar. The bartenders are extremely friendly, they answered all my questions about some the of liquor they were using and gave a little history as well. We've tried most of the cocktail and they are delicious, and strong. All in all, this is a cute date night spot with great vibes and good cocktails. read more

We got company is a cute little bar in Williamsburg with great cocktails. This was the perfect spot for my friend to catchup over drinks - the space feels intimate and there's a vibe but it's not terribly loud. We each had 2 drinks and enjoyed both of them.

Cute little cocktail bar in WB right off the Met G and Lorimer L! Keep your eyes peeled so you don't miss it. Awesome cocktails around $15 each. We really loved the Strawberry Letter (a spicy strawberry marg), Memory Bliss (gin & aperol spritz), and Paradise Shandy (vodka + IPA). There's indoor and outdoor seating but highly recommend the indoors since it gets really hot outside. Nice and attentive staff whether you're chilling inside or outside. Lastly, got to give it up for their name. I totally dig it. read more

REALLY loved it here. Their drinks are delicious and strong but not bitter. Classy. No tv, dim lighting, cozy atmosphere. Overall the place is relatively small but a perfect hidden spot. Their small bite snacks are also very very great quality. read more

I'd rate we got company four and a half stars. Great variety of wines, beers, cocktails, and spirits. On the weekends, their patio spills out onto the car shop's unused driveway offering spacious seating. The staff is very attentive and accommodating. I had a couple of draft wines while my fiancée had one of their spicy cocktails. They were kind enough to bring us plenty of cold water on the hot afternoon. read more

They have one table outside by the street. I remembered the cocktails were really good. Would love to come back again. read more

super friendly staff. they answered all my annoying questions about each cocktail and were excited to share. i really enjoyed the tequila cold brew drink.. highly recommend it with the dough ball treat that comes on top. i would prefer different music, the rock music felt dive bar like but the ambiance without the music was much more intimate. read more

Sometimes I walk past a place and know I have to go in, even without checking the Yelp reviews. One glance at the pitch dark interior and I was sold. It's just the intimate space that I'm always looking for. Luckily we were able to be seated inside because although their outdoor seating is plentiful, I wanted to be ensconced inside the womb of We Got Company. Like anywhere else, you must order some kind of food and the nuts do not count, but the olives do. Shrug. Those were the only two vegan options. Food was not on the brain. Those cocktails though! A CLOVE daiquiri?! Sign me up. Admittedly, I didn't taste cloves (which I feel some people might think too overpowering), but this daiquiri is divine, not excessively sweet like many daiquiris can be. Super refreshing! I kept marveling over the scent of fresh citrus and then realized it was coming from my guy's drink: Gimme the Sun. With one sip of that, I knew what I would be ordering next, as good as the daiquiri is. The smokiness of mezcal is tempered with the fresh grapefruit bitters. It's such an incredibly unique cocktail. I observed the bartender mixing each drink expertly with so much loving attention and it truly shows in both the presentation and quality of the cocktails. I love that this place still seems like a secret, too. One of the most overused expressions on Yelp surely is hidden gem. In this case, that expression is valid, but let's be more specific and say that I feel like I've discovered the rare black opal of bars. read more

Drinks were solid, though it took a bit to get one. Bar is small and they only allow people in who can get a seat which is nice because it wasn't overcrowded. read more

Bartenders we have tonight was just ok. One is friendly one is a bit tricky. My friend who hung out with me, she is also bartender so she saw when one of bartender mixed drink for me and just let ice melted there without taking the water out so my drink had been diluted. She likes the cowboy bartender in another day more because he is so experienced and don't miss anything. read more

Just to be clear this is a bar, like a modern day cheers. No food just nuts, a great staff, amazing mixed drinks and the best tap water in Brooklyn. Stopped by while bar hopping through Williamsburg with 2 friends, great for date night drink or a small group of friends. read more

Brooklyn has no shortage of cool cocktail bars, that's for sure. I was staying in Williamsburg for a few days during my trip to NY and a local friend recommended this spot to grab a few beverages. Upon walking in, it took a few seconds for my eyes to adjust transitioning from the bright outdoors to the dark interiors. We sat up at a hightop table right next to the bar, making it just in time for happy hour. It was pretty empty when we came in and there was one bartender taking orders from the entire bar at the time. She came over, explained the menu, and let us know about the happy hour deals. I saw that old fashioneds were on happy hour, so got that. My pal got the happy hour margaritas. We seemed to really love both because we got 5 more orders of each drink. By the time we left, the bar was packed! I was almost bummed to be moving on to the next bar. For 5 rounds of happy hour old fashioneds, I paid less than $40, which I thought was an amazing deal seeing as how cocktails usually run you $13+, especially in NYC. Everything from the ambiance, to the service, to the old fashioneds, make this a 5 star experience from me! read more
