Still pouring

Checked October 18, 2026.

Overview

Once the last hold out of old prehipster Williamsburg, now a crappy restaurant.

History

It has outlasted our complaint

When we listed it, we said it had once been the last holdout of pre-hipster Williamsburg and grumbled that it was now a restaurant. The restaurant has outlasted the grumbling: Sweetwater says it has served North Williamsburg since 20041. It still lists 105 North 6th Street, and its site names Pablo as its beloved founder1.
