“I went there to see and hear Perry D'Andrea sing Sinatra, and enjoyed the other attendees as well. Bartender got creative; loved the concoction she dreamed up for me. The place has barstools and booths, intimate lighting, and a separate area for folks to play pool, all of which allow a good view of the stage. There are special engagements on a wall calendar, and the regular show is on the last Thursday of every month. Y'all come by and set a spell, you never know who you might meet there on any given evening. You might meet a stranger, and leave with yet another friend on your contact list, haha!“

“I enjoyed this place! The service was great. The food was timely and tasty, except the slaw. Get the fries instead.

Parking: Paid street parking. We were lucky because we were early. I can see this being a problem when it's a busier day or time.“

9d's Bar Plus Bar • $
400 E Clayton St ste b, Athens

“When I first started going it was great every time. Since this year I think they got a new DJ and he to pauses the music at the beat drop and is terrible at mixing the music. It kills the energy and is hard to dance to. He cannot read the room, and I don’t have as much fun :(Lastly, out of nowhere they started charging a cover fee and didn’t let me and my friend know until AFTER we waited in line and got to the front And we had to get cash and wait in line again.I liked the cool 90s vibe they had, with a group of and now it’s completely gone.“
