ANIMAL is a gay bar on Meeker Avenue in Williamsburg/East Williamsburg, Brooklyn, open late — into the early morning — seven nights a week. It reads as a small, neighborhood-scale venue rather than a large-format club, but our single search did not surface specific published reports of a regular door line or wait at this location.

We don't currently have documented wait-time, cover-charge, or reservation details for ANIMAL beyond its listed hours. As general guidance for small bars in this stretch of Williamsburg, weekend nights later in the evening tend to be the busiest window, with early evenings and weeknights typically calmer — but we'd rather say that plainly than invent specifics we haven't verified for this venue.
