Travis is the best. The food is fast and fresh, just what you need. Great beers on tap. Killer bloody Marys. Great outdoor area. Ski ball. Cozy lighting. What more could you ask for?

Review: Starlight Tavern, Williamsburg, Brooklyn If you’re looking for a venue that perfectly blends great vibes, fantastic music, and amazing food and drinks, look no further than the Starlight Tavern in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I had the pleasure of attending a Prince-themed celebration here in October with the Prince Fans of New York and NJ Facebook group, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The venue’s ambiance set the tone for an incredible evening. The space felt intimate yet lively, making it the perfect spot for a themed celebration. The music was on point, with an incredible playlist that kept everyone moving and singing along to Prince’s greatest hits. The energy in the room was electric—fans came dressed in their best Purple Rain-inspired attire, and the camaraderie was unmatched. The food and drinks at the Starlight Tavern were equally impressive. The menu offered a great selection, and everything I tried was absolutely delicious. The cocktails were expertly crafted, perfectly complementing the festive mood of the evening. What stood out most was the attention to detail in creating a welcoming and fun atmosphere. The staff was friendly and accommodating, ensuring that everyone had a great time. From the decor to the vibe, the Starlight Tavern nailed it. If you’re planning a celebration, looking for a spot with a great playlist, or simply want a fantastic evening out in Brooklyn, the Starlight Tavern is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return for another memorable night!

What a blast at starlight tavern. Been for a birthday party , and for a relaxing December evening with friends. Although I did walk in on this freak who would not lock the bathroom door, and I did find a man passed out on the skee ball table (EMTs came, he was just catatonic after losing a $10 bet on the game) I always have a great time here. Helpful staff. Drinks sort of pricey but par for the neighborhood, 8 dollar drafts etc.

Bartender was super welcoming. Ambiance was perfect. No pretension, just a good time. I loved the TV aquarium and parogis... and no, I didn't eat the aquarium!

I'm so glad this bar was here for us before the Rona, and I'm looking forward to when they're back at it. They serve my favorite cocktails, and the meats just can't be beat! The staff have always been friendly and kind and I have yet to find anything on the menu that I don't love. High marks!

Found this place a few blocks off the Metropolitan Ave exit of the BQE. Parked right in front, and walked into a warm, fun spot. The amazing bartender was filling orders for drinks AND food, and yet I had no delay in getting served. The food, BTW, was awesome. I had the John burger, a treat, and the poppers. The atmosphere was great too, 70's prog rock but at a moderate volume, so chatting wasn't a chore. Put this on your list!

Very chill, old school bar vibes. Budweiser Clydesdale lamp and everything. Customer service is excellent, Anthony will take care of you.

The Starlight Tavern is a local gem. It’s the place you meet up with friends, have some cocktails and enjoy a truly delicious meal. Many restaurants and bars have come and gone over the years - but it’s the unique combination of great food, perfect pours and immaculate service that separates Starlight from the crowd. Highly recommend and will continue to come back every time we are in the neighborhood.

Love this place. Has an amazing vibe with the cool 70s theme. Good bartenders consistently. Food is pretty good, I’ve gotten a few items that have all satisfied. Kitchen is open late. They also have Skee Ball!

Starlight is back and better than ever! I used to live next door and would frequent this place pre-covid. Now it’s back with delicious food (seriously, the mac and cheese is amazing) and great cocktails. The staff is always so kind and conversational. I have yet to go and not have a great conversation with one of their bartenders. Please show this place support. The food and atmosphere make it feel like a your local watering hole and the staff makes keeps you coming back.

This bar hasn't changed in like 10 years (in a good way) except I think they have more food options now. I have no idea how they stay in business but I am very glad they're still around. I can't recommend the burger enough. Enormous, well priced, delicious

I used to come on a regular basis, it was such a nice place. The person behind the bar was great and the music as well. I went back twice recently though, and the new barmaid is really blunt/aggressive, which removes the nice vibes there used to be in that place. Also, it’s a bit of shame but the music also changed - in worst as well :(

Unbelievably slow service - only one bartender on a Friday night. We waited forever for drinks, and it genuinely felt like we were being deliberately ignored. The female bartender with tatted arms was unbelievably bitter and hostile. Do not recommend

No experience being at this place. My bad experience and I believe of all neighborhood is of this place causing noise from visitors. Also the annoying noise from the cooling system motor at backyard. It is about time for the owner to do something to silence this monster. I do not think He would like to have it at side of his bed when sleeping. Proceed Mr Owner.
