Lying out of sight, The Branca Room is a speakeasy of sorts behind Chimichurri Bistro in the heart of the Bishop Arts District. To find it, slip down the alley just west of Eno’s and look for the red light hanging above the unmarked door. It’s self-described as a ceremonious atmosphere honoring the Argentine culture […]

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 […]
Broncos Sports Bar and Grill in Hurst is certainly no one-trick pony. Though the words “sports bar” have made their way into Bronco’s title, and the place is filled with bar games, billiards and arcade games, Broncos is known as a country music hub in the Mid-Cities. Opened in 1989 by former NFL players Ron […]
Two stages one indoors one outside. Two bands on Fridays and Saturdays.
In the Southside on Lamar neighborhood hides a hot and cool club, named after New York City’s hip borough. This musical haunt was awarded Best Jazz Club honors in our 2010 edition of Best of Dallas and the 2009 best brunch. Brooklyn Jazz Caf
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 […]

With somewhat classier surroundings than your average strip club, Cabaret Royale caters to a more discerning clientele — sort of. While high rollers can buy a wristband and ascend the fancy staircase up to the VIP area (home to the infamous “Champagne Room”), mere mortals can stay downstairs, where the beer is just as cold, […]
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.
From the curbside out front, Cape Buffalo Grille looks like just another far North Dallas bar and grill. There’s a huge patio, happy hour specials, and a massive central bar with plenty of seating and a full menu from 11 a.m. to 1 a.m., but what distinguishes Cape Buffalo from other neighboring establishments is that […]
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 […]

Live music and drink specials. What more can you ask for? Well, beginner-friendly salsa nights on Thursdays are a start, so don’t be afraid to get out there and dance, whitey.
There’s nothing pretentious about it: Caves Lounge is comfortable, with a great jukebox and a huge back patio. It’s a college hangout, just across the road from the University of Texas at Arlington. Inside, it feels like a weird vintage shop, covered in eclectic art and curtained in red velvet. Thursday nights are packed for […]

It”s sleek and hip befitting this Bishop Arts District gay-friendly spot. Happy hour (4-7 p.m.) attracts freeloaders. It”s then when guests are offered free appetizers along with bottom-barrel drink specials. The menu reads like an […]
“Be Kind, Unwind” is the tagline for this bar right outside of Deep Ellum in the location of the old Starlight Lounge. Allen Falker, owner of Nines in Deep Ellum, and general manager Corey Howe had to replace almost everything in the building: plumbing, electrical, roof, floor, HVAC, bathrooms (for ADA compliance), the parking lot. […]
There’s a long list of new, glitzy restaurants in Deep Ellum. CheapSteaks is not one of these. Here you’ll get honest food and strong drinks at a fair price, a reflection of the original neighborhood’s gritty character. True to its name, CheapSteaks offers up a trio of beef cuts that punch above their weight class. […]
When the soup of the day is “mimosas” and sangrias come in towers, you know you’ve found home. Not to mention the spicy and tropical F*** It Bucket. And while we all loved (sometimes too much) their original Uptown location, their new spot has a large outdoor space; every seat on their patio, rooftop and […]
