The Scene

WILLIAMSBURG, NEW YORK –

In a neighborhood known for its microbrews and themed DJ nights, Rosemary’s Greenpoint Tavern brings the old school back to Williamsburg and welcomes a diverse clientele of everyone from salty older regulars to local young professionals.

Once past the clusters of chain smokers out front, dive hunters and serious drinkers will find the dimly-lit dive of their dreams where patrons at the mirrored bar or in the weathered leather booths huddle over their pints in the neon glow of Christmas lights.

A TV mounted by the door entertains grousing locals with westerns and 70s classics, while seen-it-all bartenders serve Big Cups – a 32-ounce Styrofoam cup of Bud – to the crowd of indie rock hipsters and blue-collar types.

Filled with opinionated older regulars and in-the-know drinkers by day, at night the place overflows with a rowdier crowd of neighborhood party animals, young professionals, and laid-back rockers looking for a break from the usual rock club and wine bar scene.

Often joined by the spunky proprietor herself, patrons at Rosemary’s Greenpoint Tavern will find a welcoming watering hole unmatched among bars along the oft-crunchy thoroughfare of Bedford Avenue.

Tip from Lucas:

It’s definitely all about the Big Cup here. Show up early and throw back one of these 32-ounce bad boys with the regulars. Sooner or later you’re bound to get into discussions ranging from Eli Manning to Robert De Niro – and it’s practically guaranteed that the phrase ‘You talkin’ to me?’ will come out of someone’s drunken mouth.

  • Crowd

    Older regulars, local young professionals, blue-collar workers, and dive hunters, diverse crowd of 20s to 40s+.

  • Entertainment / Music

    Jukebox and digital bowling. TV showing classic movies.

  • Food / Miscellaneous

    Basic bar snacks and bags of chips. Happy Hour daily 3–7pm.

  • Prices

    Bar snacks $1–$2. Beer $3–$6, 32oz Big Cup $4+, wine $5+, cocktails $4+.

  • What to Wear / Dress Code

    Casual: work clothes, jeans, t-shirts.

  • Hot Nights / When to Go

    Fridays and Saturdays for the biggest crowds.

  • Close By

    Only a few blocks away, Turkey’s Nest Tavern (94 Bedford Avenue) has a similar divey atmosphere and a shared love of Styrofoam cups.
