I only went to see Dusty Dial perform but I will never go back there for anything else. The bartenders were rude as hell and the drinks sucked. The atmosphere was ok. Need new upbeat bartenders that actually want to be there having fun and smiling. All of them never smiled and always had a mean look on their face and really didn't want to serve me or my friend at all. They all ignored both of us until we both said something to them.

The drinks taste like day old socks soaked in water like they were trying to make tea with it every time I come here. The best tasting drink I’ve had was water. The food and vibes are good

Actually the worst espresso martini i have EVER had. Its just vodka and this is AFTER we "watered" it down with coffee and it still made me throw up in my mouth. Terrible. Plus the bartender was kinda rude.

Karaoke on Wednesdays is definitely worth staying out late on a weeknight. And they have great food - especially the fries!

I would give this less than one star, but it's not possible. I would not suggest waiting a single moment to get into this half of chromosome establishment. The staff are incompetent. In a way of dealing with what it is that you need. They waist precious moments of your existence. They may refuse service because you're a person of cork or. Taking from the very core that is you. Miserable. Do. Not. Go.
I adore going to Art Bar any day of the week, they always have something going on to entertain you. The food is also great bar food, I recommend the Mocking Bird burger if you're vegetarian and the pimento cheese fries with reaper ranch. ? The staff is always spectacular as well.

Great spot to spend any night, but especially a night out at a punk show with your friends and a few drinks.The picture was taken and edited by Josh Watson and features When I Say Jump, a trans and nonbinary fronted queercore group local to Columbia. The picture also shows the stage and some parts of the pit and walkway at Art Bar.

We were immediately profiled at the door and not let in!I just picked my friend up from the airport who was coming to visit for a girls weekend. We decided to check out Art Bar because online it looked like a good place to start for some food and drinks. Immediately walking up we were turned away for being “too intoxicated” we had zero drinks at this point and thought bouncer may have been joking, but he was not. Walking away we felt very profiled. We decided to go over to the next bar and our feelings were validated when found out it happened to multiple others there!Not sure if it’s the establishment as a whole or just the bouncer, but will never go again!

I always come to art bar, and I've always LOVED it. However, tonight I experienced the bar tender throw away a drink of a man who was not drunk claiming he was too drunk because he was mad at the customer. It left me speechless. He was SO rude. He was the bald male and cussed out customers. Unacceptable. Questioning if I will come back. Only reason I'm giving them 2 stars is for other coworkers backing his unacceptable actions saying he was just in a "mood." For other workers out there , keep doing you... as for that man ... please correct your actions.

I would give zero stars if I could. My friend & I are new in town & decided to check this bar out. Upon arrival the doorman told us we were not allowed in, when I asked why he said we were "too intoxicated" keep in mind we had just walked up & hadn't had anything to drink at this point. So I asked several times if he was joking thinking he was just messing with us but he was persistent & rude & would not even take our ID's. Save yourself the hassle & spend your money at the country bar next door at least they know how to treat paying customers
Fun improv Fri Night??
