  • 180 Degrees

    180 Degrees

    1917 Greenville Ave. Dallas, TX 75206-7438
    214-821-1700

    http://www.180degreesdallas.com It's pretty straightforward: A direct shot to the back of the club, a big bar and a DJ booth are the offerings of 180 Degrees. Spinning Top 40 and hip-hop off lower Greenville Thursday through Saturday, the club draws a typical younger pack looking to party. The bar top itself lends color to the joint, pulsing green, red and orange, and the kitchen serves a selection of tacos, burgers, hot dogs and wings late into the night. Special evenings include "My Ice Got Ice" Saturday nights and "Spin It, Flip It, Smack It" Thursdays. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Across The Street Bar

    Across The Street Bar

    5625 SMU Blvd. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-363-0660

    http://www.acrossthestreetbar.com The Across the Street Bar was named for its location on SMU Boulevard on the other side of Central Expressway from Southern Methodist University, and the auto-garage-turned-bar-and-venue does see its fair share of college students. But it also draws folks from the surrounding area. This Upper Greenville no-frills bar, venue and billiards parlor is in a great location that's seen a recent facelift with several new lofts, restaurants and businesses moving into the area. And, like its sister bar, SMU Boulevard Ice House, Across the Street Bar is known for its cheap pitchers of draft beer. The bar regularly features local musicians and acts on its stage, and for more than 15 years the bar has hosted drum jams on Wednesday nights. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Arcade Bar

    Arcade Bar

    1825 Abrams Parkway Dallas, TX 75214
    214-827-5253

    http://www.facebook.com/search/?q=arcade bar&init=quick&tas=search_preload#!/pages/Dallas-TX/ARCADE-BAR/238937525174 Located next to the historic art deco Lakewood Theater and underneath the Balcony Club, this dive is popular among people in the Lakewood and Lake Highlands neighborhood. There's some café seating out front under the theater's marquee, but don't be disappointed -- there's no arcade inside. The long wooden bar runs the length of the establishment, and there's lots of seating available at the bar and at tables and chairs along the adjacent wall, which is decorated with old concert posters ranging from The Misfits to Jane's Addiction to Polvo. Arcade Bar offers weekly specials like Procession Mondays with $2 you-call-its all day, and karaoke on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Babalu

    7315 Gaston Ave. Dallas, TX 75214
    214-953-0300

    http://www.myspace.com/babaludallas Loud, Latin beats pump away at this upscale dance destination, so take your wallet and your salsa shoes if you're looking to get down around McKinney. Make sure to show up fashionably late, as OK takes its sweet time filling up, but man, does it wind up getting crowded. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Backdoor Comedy

    Backdoor Comedy

    8250 N. Central Expressway Dallas, TX 75206
    214-328-4444

    http://www.backdoorcomedy.com/index Bare bones comedy club on the eastern edge of downtown. Ample parking thanks to the hotel. Intimate room. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Balcony Club

    Balcony Club

    1825 Abrams Parkway Dallas, TX 75214
    214-826-8104

    http://www.balconyclubdallas.com If you can overlook the awkward design that puts the stage right by the front door and leaves just a narrow path to the back seating area, this Lakewood hole in the wall is a great place to catch live jazz almost every night. While the club has a repeating weekly schedule of musical acts, you never know who might climb up on stage to guest-improv for a song or two with that night's band. Drinks are pricier than one might expect from such a dark, homey bar, but the selection of liquors, beers and wines is well-chosen. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Barcadia

    Barcadia

    1917 N. Henderson Ave. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-821-7300

    http://www.barcadiabars.com/barcadia-dallas/ True to its name, Barcadia is half bar, half arcade, and offers video games from Centipede and Dig Dug to Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat, plus skee-ball ramps and popular bar food. And with 24 draft beers to choose from and ample mixed-drink selections, Barcadia is not far from a Chuck E. Cheese with an adult twist. Not feeling gamey? Have a seat on the bar's spacious front patio, which is great for accommodating large groups of people-just make sure to watch out for falling wooden blocks from the giant Jenga game.

  • Barley House

    Barley House

    5612 SMU Blvd. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-824-0306

    http://www.barleyhouse.com It's no surprise that this Dallas institution is jam-packed with coeds after dark; it's a beer-pong bounce away from Southern Methodist University. However, the endless rotation of original and cover bands brings in live-show fans from across Dallas. While the kitchen does turn out food, mostly appetizers (e.g., "Totally Fried" Sampler: onion rings, stuffed red chiles, chicken strips, fried pickles and fries) and sandwiches (Barley House "Wing" Sandwich: spicy chicken breast with ranch dressing, carrots and celery), some entrées are available. The emphasis is on the musical acts and beer selection, which includes 17 drafts and more than 30 bottles. And for local historical kitsch: The Barley House is proud to advertise, "Laura Bush mentions the Barley House in her 2009 commencement speech at SMU." Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Beauty Bar

    Beauty Bar

    1924 N. Henderson Ave. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-841-9600

    http://www.thebeautybar.com Straight from the '50s, Beauty Bar brings a fresh, mature venue to the Dallas bar scene. True to mid-century aesthetics, the bar's bold Atomic Age décor in gold, emerald and peach provides patrons with a hip, vintage-modern hangout, all covered floor to ceiling in glitter, glitter, glitter. Along with salon-style dryer chairs, it offers a broad import selection and martini list, and a full bar including its own house-brand vodka. Featuring a rotation of local DJs, music revolves around disco, funk, soul and electro, and during the week, guests can splurge on a dash of the glamorous with martini and manicure specials.

  • Blue Goose Cantina

    Blue Goose Cantina

    2905 Greenville Ave. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-823-8339

    http://www.bluegoosecantina.com Fajitas, tamales, enchiladas -- the trifecta of Tex-Mex cookery -- are the specialties at Blue Goose, matched only by the much-lauded (and guzzled) margaritas. From the original Greenville Avenue location to the locations scattered around the Dallas area, the Tex-Mex restaurant's slogan holds true everywhere. It's "Where Every Day is a Fiesta," with its all-the-colors-of-the-rainbow paint scheme and neon lighting. The signature Goose Eggs app is a plate of jalapeños stuffed with chicken and cheese with the house Durango sauce on the side. Along with the aforementioned Tex-Mex standards are signature items like the Chimichanga a la Blue Goose, Pollo a la Chipotle and twin chiles rellenos. A table with all that food on it is definitely for a party. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • The Bottle Shop

    The Bottle Shop

    2116 Greenville Ave. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-828-2873

    http://www.worldbeercompany.com Clay Hartmann opened up the World Beer Company a few years ago. The business, which allows patrons to send gift baskets with exotic imported and craft beers to friends, was successful. But Hartmann had a problem finding a home for all the leftover beer. His new venture, The Bottle Shop, located next to The Singlewide on Greenville Avenue, solves his problem. The place operates as a beer store and a bar, so you can have a beer and, if you like it, take home a six-pack. The Bottle Shop is designed for the curious beer drinker, though. With more than 400 beers to sample, including the Spanish Estrella Damm-a rare find in any Dallas bar-it's hard not to try something new. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Bowery Dallas

    Bowery Dallas

    3407 McKinney Ave. Dallas, TX 75204
    214-965-9110

    http://www.bowerydallas.com Bowery brings not just hot dogs to McKinney Avenue, but fancy-pants sausages, too. While most hot-dog stands stop after banging out a few of the great American dogs (Chicago, chili, corn, etc.), this Uptown restaurant takes tube steaks to a new level of creativity. There’s the Mac Daddy, which tops a link with mac and cheese and bacon, and the Croque Madame, which employs bechamel and a sunny-side-up fried egg, and it only gets crazier. The Flying Dutchman adds waffle fries, bacon, chives, smoked gouda and mornay sauce, while the Bahn Mi tops a lemongrass-tinged pork sausage with carrot and daikon pickles cilantro and hoisin. Come hungry, because the buns are the size of catcher’s mitts. And come thirsty, as there’s a small beer list and a decent cocktail program, too. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Brackets

    Brackets

    5300 E. Mockingbird Lane Dallas, TX 75206
    214-823-0123

    http://www.bracketsdallas.com There are two very different eateries lurking in the cavernous space Brackets took over from the beloved Trader Vic's: a dismal upscale restaurant dealing in $25 steaks and seafood dishes its kitchen can't quite handle and a thoroughly enjoyable sports bar. The secret to enjoying a meal here is cherry-picking the menu for the items that define pub grub. Bypass the filets and tuna steaks for burgers and pizza, which, while not extraordinary, will provide all the sustenance needed for a round of darts or competitive game of pingpong on one of the restaurant's two tables.

  • British Beverage Company (BBC)

    British Beverage Company (BBC)

    2800 Routh St. Dallas, TX 75201
    214-992-8220

    http://www.bbcpub.com A sleek new bar that hopes to serve as Uptown’s go-to brew house is what the locals have coined “BBC.” With a massive draft beer setup, there are more than 52 reasons to visit The British Beverage Company, not to mention the place’s impressive collection of bottled beers. The sleek interior is only half as impressive as the outdoor courtyard, which features multiple fire pits and comfortable seating. Although it doesn’t have the greatest happy hour deals, the bar makes up for it with its live acoustic music three nights a week. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Bryan Street Tavern

    Bryan Street Tavern

    4315 Bryan St. Dallas, TX 75204-6738
    214-821-4447

    http://www.bryanstreettavern.com It’s a wild scene at Bryan Street Tavern on weekends. Indie-rock and punk acts perform in the music venue, a separate room located in the back of the bar, while other patrons play pool or sit and eat pizza from the bar’s kitchen. A glass shatters on the floor, but only a few look up at the commotion. It’s a dive, but a good one. The low ceilings and wood-paneled walls aren’t much to look at, but the drinks are cheap and the company is good. Obscure soul and R&B on the stereo offer padding to drunken conversations well into the morning. Bryan Street Tavern isn’t a bar you stop in; it’s a bar you close down.

  • Candle Room

    Candle Room

    214-370-4155

    http://www.candleroomdallas.com What will you find inside this members-only Henderson-area hangout? Pretty people pounding equally pretty (if pricey) cocktails and having a blast on the dance floor. The dress code is strictly enforced, so leave the flip-flops and football jersey at home.

  • Capitol Pub

    Capitol Pub

    2401 N. Henderson Ave. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-379-6120

    http://www.capitolpubdallas.com With an extensive draft and bottled beer selection, dartboards and dark wood, this watering hole has must-stop written all over it. This is further proven by the barhopping mobs along the stretch of Henderson on which Capitol is located. Lunch is served Friday, Saturday and Sunday beginning at 11 a.m. There is a Sunday brunch option. The rest of the week, the restaurant and bar opens at 4 p.m., offering its full menu. The choices include everything from cheese plates and salads to pizzas and burgers, like the Capitol (sirloin burger with hickory smoked bacon, caramelized onion and Dijon mustard with Maytag blue or Cotswold cheeses). House-made onion rings and hand-cut fries come with three dipping sauces, basil mayo, blue cheese and caramelized shallot dip and curry sauce. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • The Cock & Bull

    The Cock & Bull

    6330 Gaston Dallas, TX 75214
    214-841-9111

    http://www.cockandbulldallas.com One bar, one wall of booths and a few tables compose The Cock & Bull, one of the smallest pubs around town, but the inviting neighborhood atmosphere makes up for the lack of elbowroom. Old wood, red-painted walls and country paintings of its namesake cock and bull make the English pub come alive. It's known for the burgers, and the menu includes an artisan cheese plate with a seasonally rotated selection, black garlic quail and lamb loin, among other English-oriented choices. Other features include brunch Saturday and Sunday, daily happy hour specials and free Wi-Fi. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>

  • Cosmo

    Cosmo's Bar and Lounge

    1212 Skillman St. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-826-4200

    Walking into Lakewood's Cosmo's Bar and Lounge and hearing Yo La Tengo's “Autumn Sweater” is the perfect palate cleanser. The song, along with room – lit by red lamps scattered throughout – signals a change of pace from the outside world. Equally welcome tunes keep emanating from the jukebox: The Kinks, Devo and Michael Jackson – all artists that helped earned the dive bar a few Best Jukebox awards from the Observer. The semi-circular wooden bar, set atop a small platform in the corner of the room, is manned by a fast-working bartender who can whip up a French 75 almost as fast as he can pop the top off of a Lone Star.

  • The Crown & Harp

    The Crown & Harp

    1914 Greenville Ave. Dallas, TX 75206
    214-828-1914

    http://www.thecrownandharp.com If you've ever wondered about the difference between an Irish Pub and an English Pub, The Crown and Harp will set you straight. The new addition to Lower Greenville's bustling nightlife scene quickly moved in when The Cavern shut its doors late in 2010. According to Cole Hayden, the bar's new manager, the upstairs is an English Pub, and the downstairs is an Irish Pub -- both complete with a new coat of paint, wood paneling, a new beer and scotch-heavy drink menu, and a menu of traditional Irish/English pub-grub, which will be prepared in the kitchen of neighboring restaurant Daddy Jack's.

  • The Dallasite

    The Dallasite

    4822 Bryan St. Dallas, TX 75204
    214-826-3670

    http://www.dallasiteclub.com Though the bar itself has been open for more than 35 years, The Dallasite recently moved into its new location at the corner of Bryan Street and Fitzhugh Avenue, which is catty-corner to Jimmy's Food Store. There's a spacious patio out front, and plenty of seating inside around the large central bar. Also, "Sites," as the regulars call it, offers several arcade games including two Golden Tee machines, a pool table and shuffleboard. The bar has weekly specials and popular nights like Margarita Mondays, Tecate Tuesdays and Friday night karaoke. The restaurant side of The Dallasite shells out small plates and sandwiches, including burgers. Among the selection are jalapeño poppers, Frito pie and a chicken-fried steak sandwich that's a bit on the messy side for those who are, well, messy. Read more about this Dallas bar or club >>
