Description

Between the spacious outdoor garden, free live music, and Wednesday night trivia nights reminiscent of Grandma's house, Pete's has something for everyone in Williamsburg. The tattooed bartending staff is generally friendly, and wallets sigh with relief at the easy prices for such specialty cocktails as the Pomegranate Margarita. The warm, wooden interior expands into a long, narrow room, where bands play an old-fashioned stage to mellow crowds. The outdoor area, never lacking for seats and glowing year round with Christmas lights, endears Pete's to local smokers.

  • 2003 | best place to win drinks in exchange for useless trivia

    A rotating cast of self-proclaimed nerds compete for tables at what looks like a burlesque show turned spelling bee to play "the only sport we're good at." MC Quizz Off! at PETE'S CANDY STORE takes place weekly, and leads up to a "superbowl" noteworthy for its additional sensory rounds. If you can identify the top 10 losing vice presidential candidates, pictures of historic supporting actors, or the hometowns of golf heroes, you might win third place and a sandwich. First and second-place... More »
