$10 Mommy Dinner Combo, $20 Big Belly Combo, $10 Hot n’ Easy, $10 Naked Strawberry, $10 Classic caesar salad, $10 Buttermilk Brined Fried Chicken Bites
About Mommy’s Cocktail Bar
Mommy’s opened in January 2025 in the East Williamsburg corner space that was home to Ba’sik for 13 years, and the team behind it knew it had big shoes to fill. The trio — Josh Spiezle (who opened Bee’s Knees in Williamsburg and worked at the East Village’s Pineapple Club), Dane Johnsson, and beverage director HK McClendon (previously a manager at Bonnie’s) — gut-renovated the room, added a full kitchen, and hung a family photo wall of the staff.
The concept is right there in the name: think of the cool, friendly mom in the neighborhood. Mommy’s aims to be approachable but a little elevated, built around comfort food and quality cocktails in a room that feels like Mommy’s living room. It’s nostalgic without being precious, and it stays open late — until 3am on weeknights and 4am on Fridays and Saturdays.
The Happy Hour
Happy hour runs Monday and Tuesday from 5pm to 10pm and Wednesday through Friday from 3pm to 7pm — a generously long window by Williamsburg standards, especially the Monday and Tuesday late finish. The deals lean into the kitchen rather than just discounted wells: a $10 Mommy Dinner Combo, a $20 Big Belly Combo, $10 Classic Caesar Salad, and $10 Buttermilk Brined Fried Chicken Bites, alongside cocktail features like the $10 Hot n’ Easy and the $10 Naked Strawberry.
Because the bites are priced into the deal, this is a happy hour you can actually eat at, not just drink through — a good fit for an early dinner that turns into a longer night.
What to Order
The cocktail list is McClendon’s playground, and the signatures show it: the Tang-arita pairs tequila with Tang, agave, and lemon, while the Greek Martini is built on yogurt-fat-washed gin with orange bitters. On the food side, the mac and cheese is the comfort-food anchor, and there are gluten-free and vegetarian options on a menu that mixes innovative dishes with familiar bar classics. If cocktails aren’t your speed, the cheap Miller High Life is a feature, not an afterthought.
The Space and Vibe
Retro decor, warm lighting, and that family photo wall set a homey, living-room tone, and a heated backyard extends the space when the weather cooperates. Sundays bring live jazz, which pulls in locals who treat the place like an extension of their own block. It’s a sit-and-stay bar rather than a quick-stop one — the kind of room that fills in and stays buzzy well past dinner.
The Williamsburg Angle
Mommy’s sits at 323 Graham Avenue on the North Side / East Williamsburg edge, a short walk from the Graham Avenue L stop and the Grand Street restaurant corridor. With its long happy-hour window, late hours, and food-forward deals, it slots neatly into a Williamsburg crawl as either the early, eat-something first stop or the 1am landing spot.
