Great small bites!
Ok, this may sound frivolous, but we went here simply becaue they make an old classic cocktail called Aviation, that has Creme de Violet in it. That was a very good cocktail, indeed. We also enjoyed some great nibblies: candied pecans, citrus marinated olives, bacon-wrapped dates, pigs in blanket bites, and this great grilled cheese on focaccia with shallot relish. OMG! The service was excellent! Crystal really hooked us up. The atmosphere was nice; it was a dark lounge, but not so dark you couldn't see. There was music but you could hear your tablemates. There were 4 of us and we all agreed we'd go again.

the tiniest portions ever!
this is a great BAR but a horrible restaurant! the food was expensive for what it was - small portions that looked like they should have been in a 80's movie trying to depict a high class restaurant - big plate with little baby bites. i could have eaten 3 times as much and i wasn't even that hungry! aside from the poor excuse for food the bar itself is great with one of the neighborhood's best backyards!

great drinks but overpriced bar food
I love this bar, but I have to agree with previous comments. This is not a restaurant. This is clearly a nice cocktail bar with a selection of expensive bar eats. While the food quality is high, the prices are insane...considering what you're actually receiving. $6 for pigs in a blanket...which are 6 pieces of sausage wrapped in pasty dough and topped with a dab of mustard. While they were tasty, they were TINY...and on top of that, the chef actually used his electric knife to cut one in half since he didn't have 6 left in his tub...just 5. I didn't think that was a classy (or common sense) move on his part (we were sitting right behind him at the bar!!). Either the prices on the food need to go way down or the portions should be bumped up to match the current prices. But as I said before, the bar itself is great!

love this place!
Huckleberry is one of those hidden bars in Williamsburg that you feel privileged to have fstumbled upon. The food is excellent, unique and adds to the flavorful drinks. Drinks are awesome- infused vodka and the like. Love the random dance parties, the decor, the atmosphere guaranteed to enjoy yourself!

nice bar
great space, huge backyard, decent drinks, tasty but way overpriced and tiny portioned food.

It's an awesome bar...
I was surprised to find Huckleberry listed on menupages, as it's a bar, not a restaurant. They do serve some food, but it's basically high class bar food. As a bar, Huckleberry is excellent. I absolutely love it there, except for the fact that everyone knows about it now and it's getting more and more crowded by the day. Also, it's May, could you guys turn down the heat just a little? Thanks. The main reason I'm posting this is to warn people that may not know about Huckleberry and who may want to try going there to have a meal. It's a bar, not a restaurant. If you want to get a drink, hurray for you! If you want a sit-down meal without loud music and dancing drunkards (me) crowded around you, you're out of luck.

Love this place
I think this bar is a great find in Williamsburg. It has an adorable back patio, a friendly staff and an ever changing mix of music. The cocktails are either delicious classics or innovative and unexpected originals. My favorites are the Jack Rose a delicious fruity blend and the Tina Modotti with its signature chile spiced salt rim. I find the tapas and daily specials are a refreshing break from the norm. The mix of flavors in the food, cocktails and desserts are innovative and well worth trying. I highly recommend the chocolate cooked cream with Huckleberry Jam.
