“I can’t say enough positive things about this place. The new location has a nice staff, laid back atmosphere, and terrific food which is the perfect mix for a hometown bar & grill. The “Cocky Cowboy” is the best chicken sandwich in the game and I’ll die on that hill. So glad to have them back in Watkinsville, looking forward to more good times, and good food, from great people.“

Wonderbar Athens Bar • $

“Wonderbar has been my go-to spot since moving to Athens! The specialty cocktails are always a hit—you have to try the Starburst shot. The place is packed with entertainment: video games, arcade games, table games, and theme nights!

Also Wonderbar might just have the cleanest bathroom in all of downtown Athens.

Whether you’re local or just visiting, Wonderbar is definitely worth checking out!“

Bloody Mary Bar

“Finished up 3 nights of DBT Heathens Homecoming at the 40 watt club, next door at Flicker. I got their drink called “Dr. Zhivago” (an espresso martini) with a bit of a twist with the help of my favorite bartender, Jeanie. She was so fun and accommodating so I now call that drink the “Jeanie-tini” Thank Jeanie! You’re the best!“

General's Athens Bar • $$
164 East Clayton Street, Athens - 6.85 miles

“Been going to this bar for a while, only problem I've ever had is not being able to get an old fashion here because they don't have bitters. People say it's racist, redneck, or a bunch of "aggressive idiots" are clearly the kind of people to judge without spending some actual time there. Give it a chance, talk to the staff and people who go there, hangout and listen to country for a bit. I can promise you this, while there may be little things, you won't be entirely disappointed.“

Little King's Shuffle Club Bar • $$

“Visiting from out of town and wish I found this place sooner. It's a great place to get a drink (or NA/THC/CBD beverage) and catch up with a pal or even hang out and read.

Good vibes, cool music, and loads of comfortable indoor and outdoor seating options. Kind and attentive bartender. Very reasonable prices.

Stop here when you need a fratboy free watering hole in Athens!“

The service was friendly and the place was clean and inviting. I've had them before via food apps but they're definitely worth getting in person and supporting directly. I'll be back!“

Bourbon Street Bar • $
333 E Broad St, Athens - 6.87 miles

“No food, no bottle service, no frills, nothing pretentious. Bourbon Street isn’t trying to be anything but what it is.... and what it is it does very well. Right on the edge of the UGA campus, it’s Divey, loud, crowded, with great music, dancing, beer specials, beer pong, always showing sports... I’ve been to Bourbon Street many times, since it opened nearly 20 years ago. The times have changed, and I’ve grown older and my tastes have changed as well. But this UGA bar has pretty much stayed the same. Guess when you have a good formula, you stick with it...“
