Great price on drinks with different options (spiced hot chocolate, eggnog, etc.), especially during the cold months. Cozy setting for a small group of friends.

One of my favorite bars on the planet. If you enjoy a wide spectrum of cocktails in a lynchian environ of 50s cool and kitschy charm this is the place

By far our favorite bar in Athens. Tremendously reasonable prices for a wide selection of cocktails, beer, bourbon, and tequila, and the atmosphere and vibe is like none other. A relaxed bar for a good time

It looks strange on the outside to some, possibly, but this is a great bar. They have a jukebox and classic bar decor. There are few places like this anywhere. Queer friendly and welcoming.

Amazing bar off the main strip in Athens. Much more relaxed than the other bars frequented by college students. No loud music. Great place to grab drinks with friends and have a conversation you can actually hear.

Didn't order food but ordered shots of tequila! Good price. There was a popcorn machine! Cool atmosphere but one of the chair was almost falling apart and something poked real bad on the seat.
