What to do and see in Downtown, Georgia (GA): The Best Nightlife

January 15, 2022 Matilde Konrad

Charming Savannah is the picture of antebellum hospitality, thanks to period architecture and oak-lined streets. It’s tempting to spend your trip just relaxing on vast verandas and sipping mint juleps, but there are plenty of historical sites and museums to explore. Haunting (and possibly haunted) Bonaventure Cemetery is one of the hallmarks of the city, featuring beautiful obelisks, masses of flowers, and ivy-covered crypts. Dine on fresh seafood and creamy grits for a taste of Savannah home cooking.

This little bar is near City Market. It is not touristy, which is a plus. The bartenders were friendly and poured a great drink. They do have a happy hour. On Fridays, they have free fried chicken, while it lasts.

We are a ALL request piano show with high energy all night long. From rock n roll, country, rap, heavy metal, 60s all the way to current. You decide what we play!

We had a blast at Savannah Smiles. It was the weekend so it was crowded, but totally with the wait. Once we finally got a table and chairs, that made it even better. The guys singing and playing the pianos were amazing. They also had awesome Jell-O shots that came in large plastic syringes. They were awesome! It was a very fun night!! Lots of fun singing, dancing, and drinking!

Club One

This bar, where female impersonators sometimes provide the entertainment, has increased in popularity in recent years.

I'm only 49% Gay, but I do enjoy a good drag show! Delicious, divine, and delectable Drag Queens...CHECK! Colorful, creative, cosmic, and crazy ambiance...CHECK! Sensational, stimulating, and PG-13 sexual show...CHECK! Fun, laughs, good times...CHECK! Greedy Queens...unfortunately, CHECK! Come for the ladies, entertainment, and reasonably priced drinks...and prepare to tip like cray cray. I've been drag shows all over the continent, but these Savannah Queens know how to get that cash. Each lady's performance is about 20% lip sync and dance, and the other 80% these beehotchs are just out collecting their $1s. I know a girl has gotta make her cash, but I prefer a more 50-50 ratio of performance and cash collecting. I think it was a $10 cover charge...will I back? Maybe...but I'm happy that conservative right wing Georgia has a little bit of LGBQT love.

We first had an excellent dinner here then had a very fun and informative Pirate tour. The house(s) are very cool to explore and the staff was excellent.

Fun martini bar with a huge selection of specialty and dessert martinis. I had the Bourbon Pecan Pie martini. The next time I'm in town, I'll visit Jen's again.
