Clem's

No frills bar with friendly bartenders that shows soccer on the projector sometimes. It can get loud and a little rowdy on weekends, but most of the time it’s pretty low key. Great place to get shot + beer combos or a frozen boozy lemonade. Limited outdoor seating available.

Place is rad. Rock solid bartenders, dope music, killer vibes. My friend pissed himself there one night and no one blinked an eye. My other friend sprayed beers in someones face and walked out with his head held high. Probably the best place in Brooklyn. I'll never stop going.

Stiiiiif Negronis. No-nonsense bartender(s). They had a pretty good DJ playing Culture Club and Jorge Ben Jor records. A bit loud. Not too crowded.

Bartender Fletcher was so friendly and gave us great recommendations for Williamsburg! And the drinks were great and the atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for for an afternoon drink.

One of the best local bars in Williamsburg. Clem’s is perfect for a low key drink with your significant other or a rowdy night with friends and co-workers. Their drink prices won’t crush your bank account and the relaxed, laid back vibe will have you feeling like you’re partying in your best friends home without any of the cleanup. The bartenders are all professional and welcoming. Their outdoor seating on the front and side of the bar make for excellent people watching.

Dependable neighborhood dive with a heated outside seating structure and additional heated tables under their awning on Roebling. Window service on Grand. Solid hot toddies and tamales.

Simple and straightforward bar. A good amount of outdoor seating, which is probably it's greatest strength. Other than that, the beer selection is okay, and the staff was pretty friendly. No complaints.

We went there on a Friday night after dinner. It’s a neat atmosphere. We drank the hard Kombucha ($5) really good. I would say Clem’s esthetic is Midwest with a Brooklyn twist. Antlers, deer heads, rock and roll music. The DJ (Jan 31 2019) was good and created a cool atmosphere. I believe she was spinning vinyl too which was impressive.

Came here a couple Sundays ago and the bartender Say was the absolute BEST. Would probably give this bar 2 stars but they were so great to the point I felt like I had to write a review about it. Super personable and attentive to everyone. Was having a rough day and they made me feel so much better and it was really fun chatting. Usually that bar is kinda ehhh bc not much is going on and it’s so boring looking. Glad whoever is in charge of hiring finally hired some interesting diverse bartenders! Def recommend going in when they work on Sundays! You won’t regret it!

Very cozy space. Inside and outside seating. Went late night 7/4, and we both got frozen margaritas. They were ok. They were in these mugs; the drink had a good consistency. Although I wouldn't go back to try this same flavor, I would of tried the other flavor "Rose". While sitting outside, the animals of the night were out to play. Although I don't blame them for the animals I wouldn't choose to come back at night. I like that the bar tender came outside to tell everyone it was a last call as well. Not just coming with a bill and shoving it to pay and leave. Especially for it being a holiday. So I really appreciated that.

Great dive bar in Williamsburg. Long wooden bar and have TVs for sports and outdoor seating during the summer. Come as you are kind of bar.

Outdoor seating in the summer, dark and cozy in the winter. Your regular mixed drinks made stronger than you're used to. Like most bars in the 'hood, it's hard to find a seat during happy hour, but the generous deals make standing worth it. Then the crowds clear out and you can continue the conversation with your friend — or that cute bearded dude down the bar.

Neighborhood staple. Known for cool pop ups and showing important sporting events. When NY ( all teams) are doing well, they have it on. Far as I have experienced. Standard williamsburg crowd. Adult adult. Post hipster- pre yuppie/ fiance bro. Lol If you know you know Food is good when they have pop-ups but don't expect food on regular. regular. Weekends- if you have a crowd, come earlier because seating is tight. Close quarters. Two bathrooms.

No food just snacks which is fine . Bartenders are lovely and it's a nice old fashioned narrow bar with no TV which is a blessing. It feels like a cozy comfy neighborhood hangout with a few cocktail specials, basic "red/white" wine by the glass and standard spirits. Great so far. What brings it down are the prices. About 50% higher than they should be. 15 a glass for no name $8 a bottle wine and well-liquor drinks. Too bad bc it makes it impossible for it to be a place to hang out get comfortable and have a few drinks. The tab would be too high and better to get a 15 wine at a place with choices and higher quality

I've been to this bar several times and have enjoyed it generally. However, tonight the bartender was especially rude. We were so excited to come and have a drink here, and instead we were met with a rude comment and a rude attitude. We will be back, but it would be easier to do so if the bartender wasn't awful.

Really weird DJ. Honestly, if they had stuck with the bartender and his iPod it would’ve been better. The transitions of the songs were at best fade outs, at worst random jarring starts. The setlist made no sense either. Just awkward.
