"A wide window of Williamsburg’s Skinny Dennis is painted with the image of a horseshoe and the words “Honky Tonk.” On the other side of it, beneath an American flag, bands like Demolition String Band, the National Reserve, and C.C. and the Boys play honky tonk music—as well as country, roots, rock and roll, bluegrass, and Americana—seven nights a week. The bar can get wild on Friday and Saturday nights, when twenty-somethings and country-music lovers pile in for a Willie’s Frozen Coffee (a coffee and bourbon slushie served in a blue Anthora coffee cup) and to dance beneath the stuffed boar’s head that can be seen baring its teeth from the wooden ceiling. The black “SKINNY” hand stamp usually takes a couple of days to wear off after a night at Skinny Dennis—about the same amount of time as the hangover you'll take home."
