Sam, the bartendress, was great. My boyfriend likes stouts, which are hard to find. Blue Sky Bar had 3 and Sam was able to describe them so my boyfriend picked the best one for him. I am no fan of stouts but I tried it and thought it was great.

Then I asked for a jalapeño flavored beer. Sam said the bar didn’t have one but then she made two draft beers with spicy bitters for me to try💙.

We sat in a great booth that overlooked the campus.

We did leave after we smelled an employee, I assume, smoking weed nearby behind a closed door

No food. Just a bar. Small chalkboard sign indicating the stairs leading to upstairs bar. It was before a NCAAF UGA game day so the bar was empty. The bar tender was friendly and attentive so we had a good chat. We liked the bar for the bar tender and had a good time. It’s probably swamped on game day!

To get here you need to go through Walkers Bar (which is rustic and nice w a great staff) part of their seating is an alleyway which was cool! Then out back you go up stairs and find Sky Blue. Super friendly staff, atmosphere was awesome- academia but with natural lighting. Full bar AND great prices. I had Bookers on the rocks and it was only $8.

As much as I wanted to try this spot, I couldn’t. My fiancé and I came in and was never greeted by the only bartender visible. We were out to celebrate a birthday but unfortunately the vibe wasn’t there. She was in a deep conversation and it seemed to me that we were not important. Guess you have to be a college student from around or a regular to be acknowledged. I can say the atmosphere was right, however the service sucked and we immediately left right out.

Greatest bar in Athens and it is not even close. Also, if you ever meet a bartender named Sam, she is awesome!

Jack was our bar tender but met Parker and Ben. Couldn’t ask for a better group of guys. We will definitely make this a twice a month plan. Enjoyed the atmosphere.

VIBE! What a chill place with a 70’s soundtrack. Huge variety of brews served from the fridge or draft options. Cool chatty bartender. Entrance on Broad street via staircase.

Easily my favorite place to drink good bourbon in Athens! Great selection of various spirits and some great house cocktails as well!

Staff is all around very friendly and enjoy what they do! Very social and creat a very welcoming environment. Love Sikes, Dan, Kristen and the whole team.

Lower music so you can have conversations and a relatively cleaner bar than most of the other places in this city

Overall 5 out of 5 stars, can’t recommend enough!!

Great selection of Bourbons and Whiskeys..Too bad they don't go al out on the small details, like big rock of ice or the right cherries for old fashions , but I still come back regardless. Also NO food..??‍♂️
