Pete's Candy Store

Fodor's Review:

Off Williamsburg's beaten path, this bar has a retro feel, a friendly crowd, and cheerful bartenders. The back room, smaller than a subway car, hosts intimate performances. Brainy hipsters come here on Monday nights for spelling bees and bingo, and on Wednesday nights for infamous trivia contests. Sorry, there's no actual candy here, so order a tasty sandwich instead.
