Pennylane YilmazNovember 17, 2011Honestly one of my fav bars ever, has everything you want! People watching, tacos, disco, and cheap good drinks
Kien NguyenAugust 2, 2015When did his place become so basic. Essentially a spot for tourists and Manhattanites to flock to because it's a quintessential Williamsburg spot.
NancerellaDecember 2, 2011Love sitting by the outside fire pit, but will smell like burnt wood!!! gotta love the crowd though... Never a dull moment...
Chez StockMay 16, 2015your standard hipster bar made epically better by having an in house taco truck.
BingJuly 6, 2012Outdoor bar space that has a fire pit that they light in the winter (reflection pond in the summer).
jon ferrerAugust 23, 2014Crowded but fun. Especially if you get drunk beforehand and go straight to the back room to dance.
Marco SolisDecember 3, 2015Good staff. As an new comer to the city this seems like a good place to meet people.
It turns into a nasty brawl of sweat and face-sucking after 2 am, but it's all part of Union Pool's charm.
Noah WeissJune 18, 2011Outdoor summer concerts free every Saturday. Starts at 4pm. Tacos from El Diablo. See the lineup at http://unionpool.blogspot.com/.
Come here if you want to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with 500 people who are all convinced they're better than you.
Ladies, watch your drinks. Union Pool has (rightfully earned) a reputation as a hook-up bar. That means creepy dudes during peak hours. Mess with them. It's fun.
Nik AndresenJune 9, 2012Pretty cool place with as much space. U can get cheap drinks (friday night 2 for $5 buds) and fuckin tacos!! Definition of dive
Nadia KazmiApril 7, 2013Total meat market but can have great bands in the back if the vocals aren't completely muffled
William CarnesMarch 11, 2012The DJs can be assholes if you have requests. We requested Biggie 15 years after he died, and he was like "Do you need Biggie to dance?" yeah. Yeah I do.
Salih Seckin SevincNovember 29, 2017Had a very crazy night. Listened a rock band, drank a lot of beer. Enjoyed till morning.
J ScottDecember 4, 2012There's a crew here made of cheekbones, leather and an attempt at coolness. Be them or be the opposite of te
If you go late on a weekend it's a sweaty mess. During the week it isn't so bad though. And the taco truck is totally decent.
Nitzan BDecember 11, 2017The place is cute but when it’s full it’s hard to hear anything or have a decent conversation- EdJune 16, 2015Local hipster bar, cool backyard, obnoxious bartender at the front bar. Now, charging me $3 for a club soda (tap water+ Co2) while ordering "real" drinks?!Congratulations you lost my business.👎🏻
danielle mApril 27, 2011get a beer, go to the taco truck, and enjoy the view of fine looking gents roaming around the back HUGE patio.
Theodore KSeptember 28, 2016Awesome outdoor space...used to have 2 buds for $5 but apparently that's gone
Go here on weekends if you like long bathroom lines and crowded places where you a decent chance of seeing a sweaty stranger naked.- J ScottDecember 4, 2012There's a crew here made of cheekbones and an attempt at coolness. Be them or be the opposite of them
