The Bar at 316

(106 Ratings)
Cocktails, karaoke, and a classic wrap-around porch!

The Bar at 316 is a local favorite for a reason; its welcoming atmosphere and attentive staff make you feel equally at home whether you're indulging in a craft cocktail, enjoying a drag performance, or cutting loose on the dance floor.

Located inside a gorgeous southern Victorian house, the vibe here fluctuates based on the room you're in. Enjoy the porch or balcony for some fresh air, then head to the dance floor for some revelry.

There are cozy spaces to gather, chat, and relax both indoors and outdoors, giving everyone plenty of choices when curating their evening atmosphere. And if you're in town during the right season, the Pride events feature a waterslide!

BEST BAR IN TOWN!

I have been to every bar in town and finally found a good one. No drag queens, no piano sing-a-longs, or old circuit party queens! Just a great bar!

what a cool place to hang out

this place just opened and what a difference. It looks and feels so different from the old owners bar. I can definitely see myself relaxing there after work and going on the weekend. It's pretty awesome.
