45 Best Bars near Bountiful

“Great bar, the kitchen was closed when we got there but they didn't care if you got food delivered. The furniture is outdated but still comfortable. Good amount of billiards tables. Bring quarters, or they have a change machine that takes cash. Great staff, good drinks.“

“Found this place for last minute business dinner. Unique cocktails, amazing small plates. Brussels and Truffle fries didn’t disappoint. Entrees were fresh and well composed. My only knock was our server that wasn’t that personable and didn’t provide any recommendations.“

“We came in for a special five course whiskey dinner and it was an amazing experience. It is something that restaurants in Utah are usually hesitant to do, but I have been to dining events in other states before and the food and pairings at Twigs were on point. We look forward to coming back, great menu and specials!“

“Absolutely loved this place, very beautiful. The food is phenomenal here. My husband got the pork belly bowl - meat was very good, in all very flavorful and filling. I got the vegan mushroom banh mi with papaya salad - extremely flavorful as well. Maybe the best banh mi I have ever had. The papaya salad is also great, loved the peanuts and fried onions in it.

The drinks were all good too. My husband got one of their seasonal cocktail and ginger sumac cider and I got their ca phe.

Definitely ask for their house made chilli crisps! It is heavenly!“

“Best dang booch in all of Utah!“

“2.5 stars The beer selection is amazing. The food is wonderful…however!, it will take more time than you’d think for service and food. We’ve given this place 4 tries, and while sitting at the bar is amazing for drinks, the table service and food is super slow so just set those expectations appropriately. This is a consistent experience, every time, which is a bummer with the service and food because the food is great! But even if you’re sitting at the bar, food service is *extremely* slow (40 minutes for an order of wings). It’s so unfortunate because otherwise, this place is a gem.“

“Fantastic theming and atmosphere, the drinks are super creative and quite good. Everyone is very kind and the bathrooms are also so cool. I left my jacket by accident and the staff was super awesome and held it aside from me. Amazing customer service and an awesome place all around!“

“Killer IPAs! Good food and service. Came for trivia night and had a blast.“

“I have been regularly dining at Finca Pintxos Bar before my shows at Eccles and am always happy with the yummy food and excellent service. Love the dates, meatballs, salad, and desserts!! I try to sit at the bar so I can watch them cook and visit. The staff are always so friendly and helpful. I especially like visiting with Pete; he is talkative, helpful with the menu, and a great chef! Go check out Pintxos is you get a chance!!“

“Great venue everyone is so nice“

“I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The service from Maria was excellent and really efficient; she's genuinely one of the best waitresses who has ever taken care of me. I loved the food. I'm leaving really pleased and will definitely be coming back soon.❤️“

“So good, I adore everything about this place.“

“This is a Real Bar! They have an excellent selection of house cocktails, but can execute any classic cocktail with ease. Domestics and imported beers are at the ready, as is Underberg. I am chuffed to have sidled up to this bar while passing through town.“

“Love this spot! Utah’s Godfather! Everything we aspire to be and more. Most fun in Salt Lake, hands down! Great vibes, great music, great drinks, great games, and pinball! Definitely the best spot in town!“

“Thanks Sammy. She’s an awesome bartender.“

“The atmosphere is beautiful and the live music-saxophone-player is was amazing, (and an unexpected surprise). The craft cocktails were delicious. The presentation of the food was beautiful and very good, however it was a bit pricey compared to the up scale bars and restaurants nearby. Unfortunately, our bartender seems to be more interested in talking to the other staff, instead of paying attention to his customers. We had to wait to order drinks, we waited and waited to order food, and he had a really difficult time checking back to see if we needed more drinks. When the food arrived, the bartender had gotten our order wrong, but he was quick to correct it. The scallops, the fennel salad, the calamari, and the miso chicken were delicious. We did inquire about gluten-free options, but our bartender didn't seem to know what "gluten-free" was, and had nothing to suggest. It would be nice to have gluten-free indicated on the menu. (Also, the online menu was different from the in person menu. Not a big deal, but it should be updated.) Overall, we had a really nice experience and were very happy with our food and drink selections. We will be coming back with friends.“

“Best breakfast in Salt Lake. Gorgeous location and the nicest staff.“

“My partner and I stumbled on this place on our way to another bar we were just going to grab a quick drink but ended up enjoying ourselves before we knew it we had three drinks and a desert. Great place for a date or to catch up with friends comfortable yet stylish I could hear well enough to actually have a conversation. Every drink we had was delicious! Highly recommend.“

“The food was delicious… I will be back possibly tomorrow for lunch. Highly recommend. Great atmosphere. Our waiter Ehsan was great as well.“

“The food is inventive and delicious. The cocktails are carefully crafted by hand and very fun. Prices are reasonable and the atmosphere is chill and relaxing.“

“Great caberet in SLC. Features flow dancers, live music.“

“What an amazing little bar. Just a stones throw from Flankers, my favorite bar & grill in America.

Kelley is amazing and so is Ethan and Hannah is wonderful too. I’m sure there are other people and that they are wonderful too.

Only complaint is that there was a frozen hamburger outside.

(Updated)
I went back and talked to the manager, it was a hot n’ spicy mcckicken, not a hamburger. Anyway, they were out of banana pudding when I went. Weird. I don’t think they even have it. Super weird.“

“D&D's is a classic neighborhood bar. Really great staff and very reasonable drink prices.
Food is available through a counter in the wall, that lets you order from Yoko's next door and eat it in the bar. Friendly owners. Great people and dog watching through the big windows is a plus.

“A nice cocktail bar / lounge in Salt Lake City in the Monaco hotel. Service is good & attentive and the ambiance. My steak frites were cooked perfectly but founded the food to be a bit too salty. If they slightly reduced the amount of salt on the food it will be better. Overall will come again just for cocktails.“

“Fun atmosphere, light crowd, delicious drinks and food! The surf and turf was divine ❤️“

“We arrived roughly at 9:30pm prior to the cover and had a great time winding down our evening at Sayonara. The bar staff were kind, attentive, and responsive. Quick to take your order and had bar staff coming to your table with drink service.

Of the course the vibes are some of the best in downtown SLC. We particularly enjoyed the bar back and pool room.“

“Great food choices and the server jimmy he is awesome!! I would recommend him if you want great customer service experience and helpful feedback on your food choice at the restaurant. I had the rainbow trout and it was a 10/10!! The rainbow trout was by far the BEST rainbow trout I have ever tasted!! If you’re into seafood I recommend to try the rainbow trout.🙌🏽❤️“

“My experience was divine. From the second I walked into lake effect to the second I walked out I felt seen and cared for. Hannah and Kana at the host stand told me exactly what I needed to hear and did it with integrity. From then, o sat down, and Kell approached me. Asked all the right questions and provided me with an excellent recommendation that might be one of my favorite cocktails I’ve ever had. Then, feeling peckish after my first drink, I delighted myself to some chips and salsa. Jasper, the food runner, came by and dropped them off. Explaining the process in which the salsa was made and the drink profile I should pair it with. JJ, the security guard was a hoot whilst simultaneously exuding an air of confidence that made me feel safe the whole night. Again, those employees are the ones that defined and made my perfect experience.“

“Love this spot! Utah’s Godfather! Everything we aspire to be and more. Most fun in Salt Lake, hands down! Great vibes, great music, great drinks, great games, and pinball! Definitely the best spot in town!“

“Katya is a wonderful bartender! Attentive, kind, and very creative with her cocktail creations! I asked for a White Russian with a Fall twist, and it was AMAZING!! I also love the wonderful atmosphere this bar always has as the seasons change. As you can see in my photos their Halloween decorations were very fun and elegant.“

“SOOO GOOD! Definitely a five star experience.“

“We came here for brunch for my girlfriend’s birthday and it was also our first time coming here. The food was absolutely delicious AND we got a free dessert for her birthday. Not only was it free, it was a delicious, house-made crème brûlée! We will definitely be coming back!“

“because it's awesome.......water shots all around.“

“The Garten is one of the best outdoor venues in the city. Huge outdoor patio with a full service bar, fire pits, and a full stage for live music! Food trucks show up regularly.“

“Blue Gene’s is a hidden gem in salt lake! The vibes are immaculate. I’ve come here with my girlfriends for drag shows, karaoke and for trivia. We always have way too much fun taking pictures in the Photo Booth and the drink options are great!“
