Eating:
City Cafe
Nicks in the Sticks
The Oasis in Cottondale
Hooligans
Hokkaido
New Full Moon
Archibald and Woodrows
Ruan Thai
Bars:
*These are so dependent on the type of crowd you want to mingle with.
Innisfree- Good mix of students and alumni on game weekends.
Alcove- Best beer bar in town, older crowd, more low key.
Gallettes/Bo's/Red Shed- Freshman year type stuff.
Houndstooth- Has gone downhill since they built the new building.

Entertainment:
The Green Bar(connected to Wilhagen's, kinda close to Copper Top) does 3 comedy nights a month. 2 of them are free open mic(some bad performers, but they always have 2 or 3 really good circuit guys as well) and then 1 pay show with all good guys for $5. Everyone should check it out sometime. Local comedy is a great time in a college town and there are some good comics that come through Tuscaloosa.
ETA: Every other Wednesday is when they do the comedy nights. If you ever see a guy named Nic Guyton perform then come up and meet and greet.

Yeah the new Houndstooth is one of the nicest college bars in America. Fact

I have very mixed feelings about the new houndstooth. The old houndstooth was the best sports bar in the country. When the new one opened, I hated it. Over time I came to really like it. Nothing like people watching on the patio with a 3 dollar pitcher.

No votes for the booth or coppertop?

I stabbed a dude in Cheap Shots.
He deserved it though.

Would he not give up the super Nintendo?

A buddy I was with wanted to play Contra. I thought that was a game in which each combatant had a go at each other with a sharp object...

Just stating this does not make it so. Sorry we have differing opinions.

Dreamland's ribs aren't that good, but their sauce is second...to...none.

I love Dreamland. All you people saying it's overrated are hipsters trying too hard.

Ehhh, both get just too damn crowded.

Aside from the yummies you mentioned, many a saucy night started with a margarita from Pepitos and some greasy quesadillas.

Downtown bars suck because they're downtown and it's not convenient.
