Williams is one of the largest bars in Uptown. It is multiple levels, with pool tables, free popcorn, and they are the only peanut bar (free) I know of (although you are limited to the basement if you choose to partake in these tasty morsels). Its usually packed later in the week and on the weekends, which makes it a little hard to get a drink, but if you head back to the pool tables, a waitress might be by soon.
They also usually have a beer tub when you walk in. Music is usually top 40 and more mainstream. During the summer they have a small outdoor patio along the sidewalk great for people watching. The crowd is usually well-hipply dressed and 22-28 years old. For any night, Williams is a safe bet because they are almost always packed and one of the best spots to play pool in uptown.

Well 'J', you must be one of the suburb white dudes or bimbos, or in the Elizabeth Hasselbeck fan club. The bartender was obviously racist- I 've heard of things like this happening more than once at this place.

What does your friend's ethnicity have to do with anything? $3 pints on Wednesdays rocks!

This place sucks donkey nuts. I went there with a friend on her birthday, she's African American. We sat there for 1/2 hour before we were served, and there were only 4 other pairs of people at the bar, and just a few people at tables. The bartender, some trashy blond woman, threw a fit when I asked for good tequila in my Sunrise and not the worst house crap. I'll never go back here. It WAS fun at one time before the yuppie craze hit in the mid 90s. Strictly for the college-age, suburb whitebread man looking for inner city thrills. Don't be surprised if you see the patrons on "Girls Gone Wild" or a gangbang of a teen girl video.
