A low key "artists bar," Stain remains true to a Williamsburg ethos that disappeared about 10 years ago. It's relaxed, friendly and a strong supporter of the local artist community - the kind of neighborhood bar where people stop in to say hello to their friends when they walk by. Exposed brick walls, comfy couches, board games and candles make for the perfect hangout.
Overview
Why You Should Go
- PAINTstain, the low-key "talent optional" crafts night is a ton of fun.
- The drink menu is all New York, boasting 20 NY State wines, 15 New York beers, and Brooklyn Cream Soda.
- The huge garden is a smoker's paradise in the summer.
What You Should Know
- None of the musicians here get paid by the bar, so if you're digging it drop a few bucks in the tip jar.
- If you want, add your own touch to the 12ft mural in the back.
