Cedric DavisAugust 28, 2014All the beers. Things we don't have In the brewskiest corners of Vermont. Have the Williams burger. Drink a beer. Play foosball. Then play skeeball. Have another beer. Play pool. Play darts. Enjoy.
Erik RowleyFebruary 1, 2015The beer variety is impressive even if it is most of the mainstream drafts found in every state. I dig the 50's cafe look though and those stools. Be warned the basement is full of bros and nuts.
Natalie DevineNovember 20, 2010LOVE the array of tap beer. sat down. looked at the beer list. amazed to find 70 beers at one bar and wondered where they kept them all? ah the 30 foot wall of taps behind the bartender. brilliant.
Lonnie ClarkJune 16, 2017Check out Friday night's 9oz Steak Grilled any way you like it with a side of fries or salad. Food service until Midnight!- Andrew KurcanJanuary 1, 2015If you can handle the bros, it can be a good hang. Great beer selection, good cheap sand which menu!
- Michael FoehseApril 23, 2012Good selection of taps, free peanuts, and a cool vibe. One of my favorite joints in uptown. $2 Chicago Dogs late night!
Peanuts, ski ball and so many beers on tap you can't read all the choices in one sitting!
Eat a burger. Drink some American beer on Wednesday. Tip Anthony very well.
Leib YardleyDecember 12, 2014Always a pool table available and a great selection of beers upstairs and downstairs.
Check out the happy hour selections - great discounts on good beer!
Good people watching, and free peanuts! What more could you ask for.
Actually the bottled beer has been improved and is fresher than ever, don't believe me...... Try one for yourself
Jeremy LebensSeptember 28, 2015Cheap beers, but has sticky floors and a weird smell to it. Probably only noticed cause it was mid-afternoon aka dead. Oh and the queso dip is just microwaved cheese sauce.- Happy Hours and Wednesday Nights you get a BIG burger and fries for $5. It ain't fancy but it's surprisingly tasty.
- Awesome place to watch a Twins game. The downstairs bar passes the "Baseball requires Peanuts" litmus test that most sports bars fail.
On multiple occasions I've had skunky beer from the tap. They're usually good about it though.
Follow them on Twitter for specials. Lst night was an extended 2 for 1s for Twitter fans
My bartender tonight was awesome. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name.
Kristin KJanuary 31, 2010Williams gets very crowded on weekends, but if you can brave the sketchy crowds, get one to their dozens of tap beers downstairs.- Elizabeth KeoughSeptember 4, 2017I was roofied here on Friday night. Tried to talk to the manager on Saturday, he didn't even act surprised & didn't care. Filing a police report. Be safe if you go there.
- LaurenDecember 9, 2010I'm not a big fan of this bar but on Wednesdays after 7pm you can get a burger and fries for $5 and a domestic beer for $3
- Chase ChondonMarch 19, 2011Thurs night 10 to 12 2-4-1 and tickets for free hotdogs with cocktail purchase!
- Play skee ball. Eat peanuts. Throw them on the floor. Laugh about it.
Get a beer, and make sure it's in the mug that's bigger than your face.
Check out Williams' Facebook page for kick ass specials. Free beer? Yes, please!
- They forgot my food and bought me a shot. Thanks, guys!
Own the billiards situation, then own the niight! Drink also
Eric WilkinsonNovember 6, 2011Upstairs is not worth it... Downstairs...that's right... oh yeah... you see it? a million beers...and a million drunk bros...
