What an incredible place! The wait staff is top notch, prices are very reasonable, and the DJ does a great job of engaging with the audience to get people to drive the musical direction! Will definitely go again!

Some of the best bartenders we’ve had in years! Tori and Eddy have been absolutely incredible—friendly, attentive, and genuinely made our honeymoon extra special. We’ve been here a couple of times now, and every visit they go above and beyond, even on the busiest nights. We’re from Houston and Austin and have been out to 6th Street plenty over the years, but this has truly been the best experience we've had together so far! . Because of Tori and Eddy, we’ll keep coming back. They made us feel celebrated, and we can’t thank them enough for the unforgettable service! like neither of us are from here and we wanna come back because they genuinely made us feel so special, even on busy nights 🫶

So I see a lot of these reviews are capturing one element or another about Nickie’s. “The fries were great!“ “Really good beer!“ “The service is really nice“

These reviews, however kind, do not begin to describe the magic, beauty, grandeur, and essence of Nickie’s 1971.

Let me put it to you straight: this is the best bar in America. I love this place more than I can describe. It’s a familiar fireplace on a cold winter night. It’s your mother wrapping you in a hot blanket when you’re sick. It’s the loving embrace of a wife to her soldier upon his return home from battle. The vibes are the best of any bar I’ve ever set foot in. If you do only ONE THING on Tybee Island, go to Nickie’s.

Karaoke is tight 10/10.

Service was great! Food not so good. Pizza and wings weren't cooked thoroughly. It was smoky too.

I’m a Savannah local who never really goes down to the bars on tybee. But when I tell you I had the BEST TIME because of Stef the bartender. Stef is AMAZING and made me want to make the 40 minute trip to come see her. Her drinks are good and her vibe is contagious. Definitely should go check out the bar and her if you’re looking for a spot with good music and cool locals.
