Bars near Bloomington

“Good food, pleasant staff. Don't expect a fancy diner or yuppie bar, this is a small town bar/restaurant.I believe they're currently going through some restructuring. However as of the last time I went they were closing the business. I hope they plan to reopen as it's a good dive to swing into.“

“What a great experience. First time to visit Alabama. Athens was a convenient place to stop on the way to Florida. I looked for a local sports bar to watch Monday Night Football and the Yankees game… in Alabama. We couldn’t have felt more welcomed. The food was great bar food. The locals also love it. Mark the bartender is the most efficient restaurant employee I have ever experienced. Polite, attentive and does the job of 3or 4 employees. I recommend the pork chop sandwich with fried okra. Delicious.“
