    Date Night Is...April 24, 2013
    Ba'sik is a great spot for a Date Night. Pop out to the back patio once the weather warms up for tasty drinks (don't miss the Poppa's Pride), and delicious share-worthy snacks.

    Set in a beautiful space, Ba’sik has a friendly staff and a crowd which is generally the same. There’s a low-key, casual vibe here which is free of pretentiousness. Great food too! Read more

    Live jazz night every Sunday. Lovely outdoor and indoor space to street watch. Drinks are good but pass on the food. Tiny and overpriced.

    Sunday nights feat a Jazz band and is open for other musicians to join and jam. Be sure to give a few bucks when the collection hat goes around, too

    Selection of wine and beer is top notch, and of course wonderful cocktail menu too. The food looks bomb!

    Easily one of the best bars in Williamsburg. Can hangout here for hours and the patio (weather permitting) is amazing. They do everything right!

    Ba’sik is a pretty—not precious—bar that could be today’s version of Cheers minus Sam Malone and plus Jay Zimmerman and Derrek Vernon. Read more
