“Love the atmosphere here and live music! might be Birmingham’s best hidden gem. Also, don’t skip out on the cheeseburger….the best I’ve had in a really long time!!!“

“What an incredible experience! Visiting from out of state and was told to check it out. After a couple rounds, I left saying bye to two bar tenders, a regular, and the owner. Service is top notch friend and recommended great drinks, the place is beyond one of a kind, leaning into its name and its love for their customers. I wish this were my neighborhood bar and I will be back ever time I’m in town.“

“Stopped by The Electric in Avondale and was honestly impressed. Grabbed a pub sub and the white chicken chili and both were fantastic. The sub was fresh, filling, and packed with flavor, and the white chicken chili was rich, comforting, and perfect on a cooler day. Great spot with a solid menu and a relaxed Birmingham vibe. I’ll definitely be back to try more.“

“In the heart of 5 Points Birmingham is a hidden jewel. It's one of those rare venues where you immediately meet new friends and easily become the extended family of the staff and patrons. Every time we open the door we feel like we are home! Definitely check out the music, they have the best in wonderfully talented and often local bands and performers! They are handicapped accessible and have a lift in front. The owners are fantastic and very accommodating, we've attended friends' birthdays there with DJs and catered food. if you are looking for a spot to feel like home, please treat yourselves to Dobber's!“

“I had a fantastic time at Billy’s Tavern! I stopped by after work to unwind, enjoy some great decor and music, and I was immediately greeted with a smile and excellent customer service. The place is filled with thoughtful touches that can take your mind back in time. I thanked the owner for helping me choose a drink and for creating this amazing, tucked-away dive bar treasure. There’s even a pool table, and I can’t wait to come back!“

“One of the finest meals you will ever have …. anywhere !“

“Our favorite bar in Bham, hands down. Taffy and Di are the best bartenders in the city! They make everyone feel welcome. The ambience is exactly what you’d want in a dive bar. If you’re in the Homewood area, this funky little dive is an absolute can’t miss! Make sure to bring some dollar bills for the jukebox when you stop by!“

“First of all….it’s in the CUT! And they are ONLY OPEN ON SUNDAY NIGHTS. The glow from warm neon sign welcomes you on arrival near the front door. Parking was easy. On the street or the big lot.

As a first timer you just have to go in and find a spot. $5 cover charge so bring some cash. They also have security. There are lots of tables and chairs and of course a few seats at the bar. If a table or chair is open feel free to snag it. The service at the bar was quick. They accept cards. Bartenders were very nice.

If you want food head for the back corner and go to the window. Two guys will hook you up. A menu of chicken wings, fried fish, and pork chops and fried will satisfy you. The food came out HOT and it’s packaged to go.

Will for sure be back on a future Sunday.“

“The bartender is a geriatric but he’s okay I guess. I think he was here when they founded the city, so that’s pretty neat (maybe he built the old building they’re at??). He made fun of me when I asked for a water. Maybe they didn’t have that back then, idk.

Ambiance is unique. Theres always old people movies on the television. So between that, and the boomers hanging about I feel like Im visiting my senile grandpa whenever I stop in. All they’re missing is some backgammon and bingo!

Drinks were cheap and cold. My Cool Ranch Doritos were prepared to perfection 👌

Solid 11/10. Highly recommend.

PS- Someone said you can cash your Social Security checks here? Idk what that is but apparently thats a good thing so yeah, there ya go 🤷‍♂️“

“Lou’s Pub & Package Store in Birmingham, Alabama, is a beloved neighborhood bar that seamlessly blends old-school charm with modern flair. Located in the heart of the Lakeview district at 726 29th St S, this establishment has been serving the community for decades, earning a reputation as a local favorite.“

“Went to 2 different locations before visiting Prive/Palace. You get entry to the restaurant for free and the club in back for $10. Security will check you before entering and parking spaces were nice.

The bartender was very nice and the people eating were also very nice. We ate wings, fries, catfish nuggets and had some drinks in between visits to the back club“

“New spot but feels like it’s been around for decades. Can’t think of a more relaxing and cozy space I’ve seen across multiple cities. Food was excellent, staff was beyond warm and welcoming. Instantly jumped to the top of my list of places I want to spend time on a day off.“

“I love this establishment. The atmosphere is great.“

“My wife and I were looking for a nice place to hangout and enjoy a mature crowd with some good music and someone recommend this spot because it was fairly close to where we were staying. This bar and grill had only been open for a week and it was exactly what we were looking for! The ambiance was perfect and the music was on point. The food was also very good. Definitely a spot to revisit when we are in town. The staff was really nice and one of the owners even came out to check on us. Love this spot!!!“

“RosėRita is so good and the Wings!!!??! 😋 O-'M-'G! the wings❤ I love to get a Margarita or 3 on Taco Tuesdays they just pair so well together 👍🏼“

“I walked from the hotel and dare I say that the walk was a little sketchy. If I had to guess, I’d say that I wasn’t in the most favorable area of Birmingham, but nevertheless I blended in because I was in a familiar environment. Initially, I thought that the food truck outside was the bar, but I was able to go inside the bar and watch the game until my food was ready. I ordered a double shot of Jameson and the price was a bit more than I was accustomed to paying, but needless to say I didn’t scoff at the price. I like how both of the business were working together and from what I was able to see from the short amount of time that I was there is that it’s a popular corner of Birmingham. I would recommend it.“

“It's already got a "'Nick' name", lol, pun intended. To be around for such a short time and already be addressed so affectionally says it all.“

“Great environment for family and friends to enjoy themselves congratulation Nephew Dee good job happy belated birthday sorry I can’t make it but I always love from Unk B“

“Everything about this place was amazing. The staff and atmosphere were so welcoming. Not to mention the drinks!! 10/10. They were super delicious. Only downside was the baker wasn't in so I didn't get to try any infused desserts but I will definitely be back. A good girls night spot but also has a romantic atmosphere for date night.“

“the history that is still prevalent at the API is simply astonishing to me. I absolutely LOVE all the members and their unique personality they share with each other“

“The setting is distinctly laid-back. The DJ's playlist seamlessly blended music from various eras, sustaining an upbeat mood. Guests interacted freely, fostering a convivial atmosphere. This establishment is geared towards individuals aged 40 and above. It offers a secure space to relax, unwind, and escape the stresses of work without unnecessary fanfare.“

“First visit here, everyone very friendly and welcoming, good grilled burgers, hot dogs, and all the extras!!! Nice Building, very clean, and had a Great band " The Real Horizon Band" with a wide variety of music, from country, to Heart, and some Great old Rock&Roll... The Female Singer was Awsome, and they had some great harmony too!!!“

“Great chill spot. Drinks on point“

“Great food and excellent customer service me and my daughter liked it“

“I was genuinely excited to try this restaurant after passing by it so many times while traveling through Downtown Homewood. Unfortunately, my experience was a bit of a letdown. That said, it wasn’t terrible by any means, which is why I’m giving it 3 stars. A friend and I dined here together as most of my readers know, I often bring someone along for reviews to offer more than just my own perspective. Appetizer: We started with the Tallulah Wings, opting for the Sweet Heat Dry Rub with Alabama White BBQ sauce. The first surprise was that the wings arrived already coated in the sauce. In my opinion, when a sauce is meant as a dip, it’s best served on the side, not as a coating. Unfortunately, the wings themselves were quite underseasoned it reminded me of drinking a LaCroix, with just a faint whisper of the sweet heat flavor. That said, the little flavor I could taste had a nostalgic charm, reminiscent of Golden Flake potato chips and those are undeniably delicious. I just wish the wings had packed more of a punch. Entrée: Next, we tried the Social Stack, essentially their version of a McDonald's Big Mac. I have to say, it was significantly better than a Big Mac. The sauce was flavorful, the patties were fresh and well-seasoned, and everything came together beautifully. It’s a rich burger, but the crispy, seasoned fries helped balance that richness. The freshness and flavor made this burger a standout I’d absolutely order it again. If it weren’t for the disappointing wings, this meal would have earned a solid 4 out of 5 stars. As it stands, I’m giving it 3 out of 5. However, I do plan to return and explore more of their menu. I believe there’s potential here, and I’m hopeful my next visit will be a more satisfying experience.“

“We visited this renovated food hall on our way out of Birmingham. The space itself is really cool and features some great food options. I had the poke and a bubble tea, which were both delicious. There is seating inside the hall and in the attractive patio space outside. Fun spot for a quick lunch!“

“Party all the time with Eastside Lounge“

“Everything I had was great and fresh the atmosphere and energy was amazing I’ll definitely be back“

“The people we sat next to were very friendly and “added” us to their fun group. Even the people on the other side of us wanted in on the action. Had a blast!!!!“

“Awesome venue, especially in good weather. Ownership is sustainability-minded. The olive appetizer was super salty, yet the olive oil had a sweet back taste. Would visit again and try different food items. Server says the place has a huge wine selection. The interior seating area is very tiny.“

“Loved spending the past week here! Love the place the environment and workers! Shoutout to cam for being an awesome bartender and jamming out to the music! Yall all did such a wonderful job with the ff after shows and pre shows! Thank yall 🖤🖤🖤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻“
