Clem's

264 Grand St. · at Roebling St.
Williamsburg North Side, Brooklyn

In 2026

Still pouring

Checked October 16, 2026.

Overview

An attractive cocktail bar where the average age of the crowd boarders on 30. In a neighborhood where anyone over the age 25 can feel decrepit that's a strong selling point.

History

Mellow on Grand Street, by its own account

Our old listing called Clem's an attractive cocktail bar. These days it describes itself as intimate in size, with expansive outdoor seating and a very mellow neighborhood atmosphere1. The crowd, by the same account, is a healthy smattering of regulars, neighbors, passersby, moviegoers and tourists1. It's still at 264 Grand Street2.
