The J Bar

Not ideal

Been 21 for close to a year now, and Jbar is still the only bar in Athens that denies me. Door guys have no idea real IDs from fakes and let hoards of sorority girls rush in without showing ID.

A recent remodel has made this probably the nicest atmosphere bar in Uptown. Beer selection so-so, well drinks were decent. (All of my Uptown bar ratings refer to when they're not jammed; subtract a few stars on weekends during school year)

The music is pretty good, and the second floor is very fun.

Fun place in the summer and weeknights, if you like mosh pits then check it out on the weekends during the school year too.
