Worth it, says Antonina. Cold beer and a jukebox filled with classic rock greet you at this Williamsburg bar nestled under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.

What I wrote thereFold it away

Step into Rocka Rolla and you’ll feel like you’ve traveled back to the era of Aqua-Net and neon-lit bars. Though less dingy than its nostalgic portrayal, it embodies the essence of an old-school neighborhood dive. Cold beer and a jukebox filled with classic rock greet you at this Williamsburg bar nestled under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway.

Arrive early to snag a spot for shuffleboard or ping-pong, but be prepared for a lively crowd as Rocka Rolla is one of Williamsburg’s most popular bars.
