Union Pool

Editorial Review

Slick corner cooler is one long ongoing Williamsburg party, although claustrophobics and those with self-respect should stay away on summer weekends. Former pool supply store but you'd need more than chlorine to clean these dirty minds now. Live music space in the back, massive outdoor smoking lounge, and unparalleled views of the BQE's fabled underside. Also a renowned late-night, last-chance hook-up spot.
