Humboldt & Jackson

"Longtime neighborhood bar owner Bill Reed sold his seven-year-old, laid-back Williamsburg spot Humboldt and Jackson to hip butchery the Meat Hook founders just one month before COVID-19 shut the city down." - Erika Adams

"The upcoming project is located at the former home of neighborhood restaurant and bar Humboldt & Jackson, which will close on February 16." - Erika Adams

"Williamsburg’s community-driven tasting room, Humboldt & Jackson, went out with dancing, smiles, and high fives this week after six years of business." - Luke Fortney

"Humboldt & Jackson calls itself an “American tasting room,” which is mostly just another way of saying “restaurant.” They serve mostly-American things like mac & cheese, steak, a cheeseburger, and salmon, and the space is split between a bar area up front and a big room that you can rent out in the back. The front is essentially a tiny tavern where you can eat a full meal or just hang out and drink, and it works pretty well for a very low-key date. There’s also a pretty good happy hour here, and they make some very good cocktails." - Bryan Kim
