had such a great time here tonight with my friend! the bartender tonight was awesome and so much fun - didn’t get her name though but she was great!

They actually have multiple mocktail options for those who don’t drink alcohol (such as myself). I really appreciate this, as The Old Pal is a cozy place I like to go to with my friends after rehearsal. Please keep making new mocktails! They are much appreciated.

Fun neighborhood bar. It was really dark the night we went (couldn’t even see the cocktail menu) but the drinks were well made and the prices were good for cocktails. Pretty traditional cocktail menu with a relaxed, good vibe.

Best cocktail bar in Athens. I am usually a talkative person, but I can't speak highly and enough of this place. We have made it our date night for several years now and I literally can't think of a single poor interaction with the staff. Even if a cocktail is not to taste for us it is at least well made.

Great atmosphere! Definitely recommend coming here! Drinks are amazing and excellent hand crafting! The bartenders are super nice and will guide you throughout your journey here with them! 10/10 (this is a margarita)

Always pleasant, even if you aren't a regular. I've visited alone and with others and it's always a nice vibe.I also love that they allow well behaved dogs

Wow! Perfect place for a cocktail! Very tasty classic drinks and so much more! A great place to drink and conversate with friends.

Jeff Cortinas

Really nice and mellow. Great place to grab a few craft drinks.

Elliott George

The drinks are great and the bartenders make sure to check that you like what they have prepared after serving it. They have many classics and also offer their own inventions. It is dimly lit and cozy.

Randy Priest

With a rotating list of seasonal cocktails, this is a really great spot for some low-light cocktail drinking. The cocktails are made really well and there is some stuff you wont generally find at a run of the mill bar in town. There is no food but they offer some snacks. The prices are pretty unbeatable for what you get.

Great atmosphere. Excellent drinks. Grown-ups welcome.

The bartender was great! The drinks are good. Just read the Ingredients cause some of them pack a punch.
