Congress Street Social Club
Social Club sums itself up as 'Good Vibes. Great Bites. Bourbon Wall Worth Climbing.' It has a large outdoor area with live music, a late-night grill and a dog friendly patio, and calls itself 'one of Savannah's preferred independent concert venues.' It posts some of the latest hours downtown, open until 3am six nights a week.
Electric Moon Skytop Lounge
The rooftop lounge on top of the old power plant at Plant Riverside District, set between the illuminated smokestacks. It has a slide, lawn games on the Moon Deck level and a dance floor, and it is 21 and over after 6pm on weekdays and all day Friday to Sunday. Music Bingo runs every Wednesday at 7pm. Savannah Magazine readers voted it runner-up for best nightclub in 2026.
The Grove
The Grove calls itself a 'sophisticated casual restaurant & rooftop bar' in City Market and a 'Savannah home away from home.' It serves Southern-leaning lunch and dinner, then stays open as a bar until 3am on Friday and Saturday.
The Rail Pub
The Rail Pub says its building 'has been everything from a watering hole for railroad laborers, to a boarding house and a brothel since its opening in 1890.' Karaoke runs, in the pub's words, 'every damn night @ 9pm.' Fridays are Free Fried Chicken Fridays with live music in the yard, and the website counts down the days to St. Patrick's Day. Happy hour lasts all day on Monday.
The Sexton Pub and Provisions
Brothers Joshua and Michael Sexton opened this Irish pub on 10 October 2025 in a 1930s house that used to hold Troupial Cafe. The kitchen cooks Irish street food ... fish and chips, bangers and mash, sausage rolls, pasties and a spice bag of fried chicken, fries and vegetables tossed in a curry five-spice mix. There is a smaller room upstairs and a big backyard. The pub says it cooks without seed or vegetable oils.
Treylor Park
This is the original Treylor Park, the Bay Street room that grew into a Savannah-born group with Hitch, Double Wide Diner, Pizza Party and Beach Party on Tybee, plus rooms in Florida. The bar top is made from reclaimed bowling lane wood, and there is a beer garden out back ... the site's line is business in the front with the party out back. No reservations. Savannah Magazine readers voted its fries the best in the city in 2026.
