Rustic-chic Italian beer garden with pizzas and pasta
"Your dog’s vet told you that you’re going to hit it off with her son, but all she knows about you is that you’re not great at brushing Bruno’s teeth. So you really have no idea what you’re in for. Recommend meeting at Ainslie, which has two bars inside, as well as another on the open-air rooftop. You can share very good wood-fired pizza or some spaghetti pomodoro at a table, or you can stand close to the DJ booth if you get tired of hearing about how cats are people too." - team infatuation
"If the area where you're hanging out with your group starts to get a little too crowded, there are plenty of other nooks to move to at this Italian wine bar and beer garden in Williamsburg. The space—converted from a warehouse—has an outdoor patio, a rooftop deck, and a ton of tables spread across multiple levels, and it's open until 4am on Fridays and Saturdays. If four more friends want to unexpectedly join you for some arancini, gnocchi pomodoro, and wood-fired pizzas, it probably won't be an issue." - bryan kim, katherine lewin, neha talreja, kenny yang
"Assuming you’re celebrating another year on planet Earth, your friends will likely buy all your drinks at dinner. However, just because you’ll be running up the bar tab doesn’t mean you have to settle for dry buffalo wings or dollar slices. Check out Ainslie instead - it’s a three-floor beer garden serving pizzas, housemade pasta, and excellent bar food in Williamsburg. If you’d prefer a more formal meal, opt for the multi-course, family-style dinner for $38 per person, and then get some drinks from the bar on their covered rooftop." - hannah albertine, nikko duren
"If a party gets uncomfortably close to you here, there are plenty of other nooks to move to at this Italian wine bar and beer garden in Williamsburg. The space—converted from a warehouse—has an outdoor patio, a rooftop deck, and a ton of tables spread across multiple levels, and it's open until 4am on Fridays and Saturdays. If five more friends want to unexpectedly join you for some arancini, gnocchi pomodoro, and wood-fired pizzas, it probably won't be an issue." - kenny yang
"If you’re looking to day drink In Williamsburg, check out Ainslie. This beer garden and Italian spot offers backyard and sidewalk seating, with pizzas, bar snacks, and a bunch of different beers available every day except Monday." - matt tervooren
