7 Best Bars in Brookings

“It has been 20 years since I've been in Skinner's pub. And while it is not the same as when I remember, and really nothing is, it is still a great place to grab a beverage and hang out with some friends. It still has that same warm welcoming environment. It still has that same awesome bar. It still has that same chill, relaxed vibe. If I lived in Brookings, it would be my go-to place to hang out.“

“This was a cool dive bar and my favorite during a week long stint in SD. I tired several places but always found myself back here for cold drinks and good times in a great atmosphere . Bartenders were the best . It is cash only so bring paper money .“

“Jim's Tap is super old-school, but you're going to love it. It's got the craziest medieval decorations and dark furniture; you feel like you're walking into a bar in the Middle Ages. It's awesome, though - great patio, great drinks!“

“Fun bar. Friendly people.“

“We were a little disappointed. Hubby ordered the Prime Rib Medium Rare and it was very on the raw red side ... he ate half of it [will cook the rest for a lunch]. Dispite that, he said it was good beef. I ordered the grilled salmon with grilled veggies. The veggies were delicious, but the salmon was very overcooked and very dry. The service was good.“

“I have been to Main Street Pub a few times as a SDSU Alum and always make sure to stop in. I love the improvements that they are making - it looks great. The staff is a blast.My friends and I really enjoyed the pizza. I have been there for karaoke and also to see a band. Both times we had so much fun.I heard they have more plans to improve in the future. Good luck to them!“
