NY MAG SAYS: Like a homesteader who finally landed a house on Main Street, the owner of Williamsburg's almost impossibly out-of-the way dive Rockstar Bar has set up a second joint just two blocks from the Bedford Avenue subway stop. Given the prime location, you’d think that this cozy, red-and-brown candy-striped room would teem with the young and fashionable. But Cyn, like its predecessor Rain Lounge, is a chasm in the middle of the swirling hipness that surrounds. Aside from the replacement of the former tenant's hip-hop soundtrack with an internet jukebox and DJ's spinning rock, little has changed. Amidst the dim red lighting and the modest crowds, you come here not because you want to join the see-and-be-seen carnival outside, but because you want to escape it with a $2 Pabst in the spacious back garden

I used to go to this Bar when it was Rain lounge which to me was way better than what it is now. Its sad that this place has done nothing to revitalize the bar. They did nothing to upgrade the interior and the outside is a disater. The drink selection is minimal at best. The Bartenders are friendly and the DJ can sometimes brighten up the night. Perhaps many others are just too attached to the old Rain Lounge concept of its people and staff. However it is a place to get away and relax and not worry about the usual issues when it comes to a bar, you rdrinks are speedy and the prices are great.
