Crystal Lake Brooklyn

I hosted my boyfriend's 30th birthday party at Crystal Lake, and could not have been happier with this venue. Right from the beginning, I was pleasantly surprised by the reasonable pricing for a private party in Williamsburg. The back room of the bar where the party was is large and roomy, which is a rare find for bars/restaurants in NYC. The drink menu offers unique and interesting cocktails beyond the standard bar options, which really elevated the party and made our guests happy. Rebecca & the other staff members there that night were very helpful with party setup, and I appreciated that they didn't kick us out immediately at 11PM when our allotted time ended. They also provided wristbands so they could tell who was with the party and who wasn't, and ensured that our party guests were served quickly at the bar. I also worked with Mike & Jacqui, the in-house caterers (their business is called BiTcHn KiTcHn), and had an excellent experience with them - the food was delicious, and the service was great. If you're looking for a spacious, fun, and cool party venue your guests will love that won't break the bank, definitely check out Crystal Lake - I'd host another event here in a heartbeat.

Bar has a great chill vibe. Music is awesome lots of throwbacks playing. Chris is a cool dude, great bartender. Recommend a good beer.

Love this place! Started coming for their Survivor viewing parties last year, but come back more often since the staff is so wonderful. They have lots of great events in the back room. Good snacks, great drinks.

Awesome bar with a cool little event space in the back. Friend reserved for a birthday party. The staff was attentive and helped us set up DJ equipment, especially Chris. Recommend this for a group event

Great neighborhood bar. Delicious drinks. I had heart of darkness cocktail, loved it. If you like sour and spicy this is it. Old fashioned was little too sweet. Anyway, great place!

Stumbled in here on a Thursday night, unfamiliar to the area but super happy we came here! Christian took really good care of us and he was such good vibes the whole night. Had so much fun and would definitely consider trekking it out from Queens to come back!

We rented the back room of Crystal Lake for our Sunday farewell brunch after our wedding. It was perfect! Excellent amount of space, full bar for those who wanted it, chill environment. They were flexible with our needs and easy to work with. Reasonable rates for a large private room!
