My FAVVVV go-to BAR in Tuscaloosa on Game Day!! Thank God we got there before they started charging cover because it was $40 per person when playing Texas ? Which is absolutely absurd. We couldn't even go upstairs for free after eating downstairs and getting there early.. But whatever. Still my favorite bar. They have the best fries and can't go wrong with traditional chicken fingers! Will always visit when in T-Town! And we also had the cutest bartender, Sarah? I think lol ?

This is a nice bar but the door staff was very unprofessional. I am 23 years old and the bouncer was trying to say my ID was fake. He even downloaded a fake app to try and scan it. After I threaten to call the police, the bouncer gets mad and says he was just messing with me. Either buy police scanners or teach your bouncers about proper etiquette.

I actually really like bear trap. probably the most underrated bar on the strip. but they play the best music.

The most underrated bar in TTown. Once you go Bear trap you won't go back.

My bartenders name was Gabriella Papa and she made me feel so welcomed and loved. She makes really good drinks I would definitely recommend this place to all of my fellow classmates. Gabi Papa deserves a raise

Bad experience, kicked out a family of 20 because a sorority girl complained that they were too rowdy. How do you choose a (probably underage) child's opinion over a bunch of adults that not only paid for VIP tickets but were the parents of at least half of the people in attendance. Clearly needs a change in management. Sad to see this, used to love this bar

Visited a family member who attends the university there and went out one night to Bear Trap. Overall experience was fine but $20 cover for a bar in Tuscaloosa is absurd. Should be $5 max for what they're offering. Door guy was also extremely rude so customer service isn't a strong suit for them either.

High price beer. Bathrooms are dirty. Has pool tables and darts down stairs. Up stairs has a cover of 20.00 dollars for just a bar. Down stairs is concrete floors. Bar tender didn’t even know that Michelin Ultra was a light beer. You dec.

While moving my daughter into collage a few days ago I tried to order food from The Bear Trap. The menu looked delicious. After having my order cancelled from the WAITR app I called to place an order. The first time I called I was hung up on after being told "we hate Yankees" ( I have a 716 area code). I assumed they must have thought I was calling by mistake from out of town. I called back. When the guy answered I said I'm in town moving my daughter in to college and believe I was accidentally hung up on. I was again told "we don't like yankees". Needless to say I didn't get to place an order. And am sadly turned off of trying again.

BEWARE!-- Disgusting treatment towards women. African American "bouncer" "manager" (???) in the front physically attacked me, I called 911 and they did absolutely nothing and just blamed it on me. I'm not sure who's worse the campus police or the "management". Multiple underage girls allowed, drug activity inside (staff as well) Definitely never allowing anyone I actually care about to go here. The music is terrible as well and if you ask for anything they just tell you that the manager doesn't take requests and there's no way to reach him. This is just so sketchy... I'm pretty sure there's lots of illegal things going on in this "bar". it's a shame people are paying for this. Disgusting. There isn't even a website or any type of contacting information. Just warning every women out there in Tuscaloosa.

0/10 The head of security was discriminatory towards me, a hispanic 22yr old woman. Wouldn't allow me into the bar, for no reason. Used to be my favorite bar, but if y'all can't be professional as bouncers. No one should go!

Bear trap is an extremely fine establishment. I've spent multiple times here and have yet to have a good time. If you don't have a ticket to game day I highly recommend coming to bear trap. With the roof top bar and the sun, you couldn't ask for much more. Personally, Corbin woodley has made my time here incomparable. He consistently asks me what I want to drink and brings your drink in under 1 minute. Nothing more brings me joy then getting their food and drinks. The atmosphere compares to no other. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting the Tuscaloosa area.
