"Arrive just about anytime to this South First Street bar to find that it’s definitely divey and a lot of fun, but quiet from the rest of the bars in the area — lending itself so well to an effortless first meet. The cocktails are just $10 at this Williamsburg bar so go ahead and stay for hours before ending the night at the bar’s photo booth." - Patty Diez

Good drinks. Cute set up. Not gorgeous but I loved it.

This awesome little dive bar in the heart of Williamsburg South has so much to offer, it's hard not to love it. The decor is sweet and old school with a pool table and nice bar and stools. Small back yard is great for catching a breath of fresh air. The bartenders are fabulous and friendly serving up some amazing cocktails and super cheap bears. Including crazy happy hour specials. Parking is a breeze on the block. All in all, a superb bar.

Dardy bar is a great place to stop for a chilled drink. The barman Joe is very friendly and will go out of his way to get you the perfect drink. The watermelon margaritas are amazing and there's usually a sports game playing. Happy hour is from 6pm-8pm

It took me a couple of minutes to get acknowledgement from the bartender, who proceeded to tell me "hang on" while she left the bar to sign for something, then do shots with her friends before ever asking what I wanted. After 20 minutes I left prior to being served, and I have to guess it was because I was in a suit that day and not my hipster costume.

GREAT BAR! The prices are great, the specials are great, and the dudes who run the joint couldn't be more accommodating. Also you can get some seriously delicious wings here.

My favorite place to hang out in Williamsburg for good vibes and cool people. I love the front and back patios when it's nice out. In the colder months, free shuffleboard, games (think Jenga and Connect 4), and TVs make it easy to keep all my friends happy. Good deals and wine on tap (!!) make it even better. The recent addition of a Megatouch machine? Perfection.

Music was loud AF inside so not a place to talk or meet new ppl easily INSIDE. But fun looking place. Cheap drinks. Patio in back and porch in front less noisy so get your date on there

My favorite bar, maybe ever. Reminds me of drinking in my friend's parents' basement in high school. Friendly staff, good music, surprisingly good food.

The second I spotted the mural at the entrance, I knew Femme Fontaine was about to quench my thirst in more ways than one ;). This artsy, woman-owned bar in South Williamsburg serves up cocktails, music, and a good time with a liberated feminist edge. When you make your way inside toward the long bar, you'll notice it's perfect for sidling up to cute strangers. Off to the left you'll find a DJ set up, primed to bump all night. A small dance floor to the right and a mingling area in the back create some promised spaces to dance around, and there's even a little backyard area for when it gets too toasty inside. They do serve food but the cocktails are where the place shine. The spicy margarita is actually spicy while going doing smoothly. When I've returned on weekends the place was crowded at an ideal level, not suffocating. Between the pretty murals and feminine edge, this bar stands out from the usual Williamsburg bars. Shout out to the bad ass owner for dreaming up this sexy oasis.

After dinner in the area, we stumbled into this floral and cute bar. It was empty on a weeknight, but the bartender was chatting up with us and very friendly. The spot is nicely decorated with neon lights and florals all around. There's even a pay phone for you to call your ex, how silly. I ordered the Big Chris ($16) and my friend had the Violet Femme ($16). My drink was pretty much an Old Fashioned and pretty solid while the Violet Femme is so pretty with the lavender hues. Overall, great vibes and fun spot with your girlies.

It's popping on a Saturday night! Love this area of Brooklyn for a fun date night. We had a PULSD deal for drinks, and weren't disappointed. They have tons of unique cocktail options and despite it being so crowded, really kind service. Speak up, it's super loud! Lol Aesthetic was really well thought out and eclectic. Would come back!

This place is super cute and chill - came on a Sunday afternoon since my friend was the DJ - I had a great time - met some chill people - the bartenders are on point (drinks yummy) after a couple drinks I felt like I needed food - ordered Parmesan fries and chicken empanada - really hit the spot !!!! The owner is super friendly and welcoming - def looking forward to coming back

As a non drinker it's hard to impress me but they did it. In the heart of Williamsburg is this little gem tucked away in the middle of the block. You're going to be in awwww from the beginning, art covered wall as you step on the front porch, which gives you Caribbean feeling of the bright colored houses. The great thing about this space there's a good amount of seating so you can relax and enjoy the music and the atmosphere, if you need some fresh air you can step out of either the front or back porch. The bartenders are quick and the drinks are beautiful as they are tasty. So if you're looking for an after work spot or even a weekend hangout this is definitely on the top of the list for Brooklyn.

Espresso martini was a hit! The espresso martini had a great flavor, different but delicious! Very sweet so personally could only have 1 or 2, but for those who love the sweeter aspects of cocktails I'd highly recommend! Service was great, bartender was very friendly! Dj was great, and the atmosphere was intended to be electric. Wouldn't recommend getting a Moscow Mule, probably wasn't ginger beer.

This is an absolutely gorgeous bar and the staff is incredible! I came here as part of the Tippler. The decor is absolutely gorgeous. You are going to love the feeling - it's almost like taking a trip to the tropics. Drinks are absolutely great. I got a Tippler Cocktail which had a mix of pineapple juice, and a few other drinks. Not too sweet, very well balanced and refreshing. Staff is super friendly too! Easy to park around the neighborhood. Absolutely loved this place and cannot wait to come back.

Amazing, cozy spot in Williamsburg with really unique cocktails and incredible service. We loved the ambiance and Vane, the owner, was incredible helpful and also so fun and nice to chat with. Definitely worth going to if you're in the neighborhood. We tried a bunch of the cocktails, but the Espresso Martini, Spicy Margarita (really spicy, yum), and Santa de Flores were standouts for us.

Fun and friendly bartender and staff. Came here for a pre cocktails before bday dinner and enjoyed the vibe and drinks. Espresso martinis are yummy

Oh Yeah! Made it to my 1st Yelp event If your driving to there get ready to look for parking space It's a cute hidden gem you can say it's pretty cool place and it has a backyard big enough for 10 people very cute The drinks are different but good I try only the alcoholic drinks because they do have a menu for non-alcoholic too I'll definitely be back in the summer time!

Cool vibe, cozy atmosphere, great drinks and even better service! Came here for some pre-Valentine's drinks during happy hour, and it was the right way to start off a date! The drink list concise and has some really interesting combos. Myself and my date decided to stay with bourbon as we got steaks later in the evening, and the Southern Belle was really delicious. A maple bourbon sour that had great notes of vanilla, maple and lemon. The bartender was sweet enough to ask, as we were the only folks there at the time, if we wanted the drink balanced anymore, but they absolutely nailed it! Our bartender was just a delight and even though we were the only people in the bar for a bit, didn't feel like they were on top of us and even when more people came in, still had great intimacy! The happy hour price was a nice touch and I would definitely come back to try some of the other drinks as some bites!

Amazing cocktails, ambiance, music, and staff! You feel transported to the Caribbean when you come here and they play great house music. The quaint backyard is a great touch too.

We found this new cocktail spot while walking around the neighborhood and decided to give it a try. The drinks were good (my Violet Femme was essentially a lavender margarita) and the service super friendly. It was too cold out but there is a small patio in the back for when it's warmer out.

I love coming to this bar. They have amazing drinks, fun bartenders, and great DJs. The decor is beautiful and the vibes are immaculate. Come by and have a drink on their outdoor patio next time you're in the neighborhood.

Absolute hidden gem! Run, don't walk. This cute bar has everything you need for a chill evening. We were surprised to find such a cool place off the beaten path. Owner and staff were welcoming and really felt the passion for home down fun. Cocktails, were well designed and strong for the price! Small bites, we didn't try but looked yummy. Will be visiting again.

Wow!! I saw an amazing dj here the other night, Maggie Z. She was phenomenal, absolutely blew my socks right out of my Birkenstocks. I hope she will be back

Meagan Bianca B.

Drinks were tasty but cost $16.50 for just one cocktail that was less than 8 ounces. It was 7pm. Prices weren't listed either. Found out when paying the bill. Too much competition in the area to put up with. Can walk a block down and get just as good of a drink for half the price at a better location more spacious.

It's a vibe. Good drinks. Great music. I like the outdoor patio. A little hidden gem on south 1st in WillyB. Just reopened labor day weekend from the old Wilson Lives and Dardy spots.

I checked out Femme on a whim and I don't regret my deviation. The interior is unique and the vibe is decent. The drinks cocktails were decent. Many looked good but ultimately went with the spicy Margherita and the Gata Salvaje. Both were good. The staff is very attentive as well.

Hidden gem in the heart of Williamsburg. Love the drinks. It's a good spot for drinks before the actual turn up. Good for a quick bar run with a few friends. Bartender was extremely attentive and friendly. Thank you

This place was new to me but the happy hour menu looked great. The bartender (perhaps owner?) who served us was so lovely and friendly, and the cocktails were fantastic. The ceviche was delicious, and she brought us some blistered shishito peppers on the house (also delicious). The decor is so pretty and the vibes are immaculate. I'll definitely return!

I really loved this place. I was in Williamsburg looking for a spot to meet my friends for a drink and after checking yelp, this place has the best reviews. They were absolutely right. The drinks were amazing as the staff was very friendly. My friends didn't stay long and I ended up hanging and talking to the staff after they left. Can't wait to get back.

I visitied Femme Fontaine with a friend recently because I heard both their drinks and happy hour special were hard to beat in the area! When I arrived on a Friday around 6 PM I was one of the first to arrive, since the space did open around that time. I made my way to the bar and waited for my friend to arrive. In the meantime, the owner who was working behind the bar struck up a conversation with me and told me her story! Originally from Haiti, she wanted to create a concept that incorporated local ingredients into her cocktails as well as traditional small plate dishes to serve to patrons. I only had a few beers but from the conversation I had with the owner I know a lot of thought and love has already been put into the menu and location. That will continue as it grows even more. Come by here and support a local business. you won't be disappointed!!!

Amazing ambiance and staff. The décor and playlist makes you want to stay all night! Did I mentioned the drinks? Go for the Gazolina a real treat! The patrons are everything you expect, good vibes and elegant. This new place is already on the map and the crew behind it really know what they are doing and it shows!

I stopped in here before they were officially open and the owner and bartender were absolutely delightful! The drinks were great and we had a lovely chat and I had every intention of writing this 5 star review the next morning. I didn't. I feel bad about my failure but hope you will read this and go give them your business. They are great. If I lived nearby I'd be a regular here. Please support them.

Came for a couple drinks with friends, but the bartender was very rude and dismissive. Maybe I came on a bad night?

A lovely low key bar in Brooklyn with wonderful cocktails. But the staff there are pretty friendly and nice. Would highly recommend a stop over if you're in the neighborhood.

I was not originally supposed to come here the other night but my friends wandered in so I met them there. This place is located in such a good spot, right in the heart and soul of Williamsburg! A must try. We met a rockin bartender named Cisco who was so nice to us and made us the tastiest cocktails!! They were so fresh and creative. I was shocked because they were so affordable!!! This is my new BK go to! Not only does this place have a quaint outside area in the back but also in the front!!! I will definitely be back!
