Renfield's Corner

One of my favorite bars since I moved to Dallas. It's super laid back and easy going. Very approachable and not uppity like a lot of the other bars in Uptown. Manager is super friendly and easy going too. Always a fun place to go in the summer when you can hit up the rooftop deck! Drinks are reasonably priced as well.

Definitely one of the better bars for nightlife in uptown. Despite dealing with hundreds of people per night, the bartenders still act like real people and don't seem to favor certain types of groups over others. The actual bar layout is great two, with a variety of separate yet intermixed areas each with a different feel to it. Great place to meet new people.

Great place! Friendly staff and since it was my birthday, I got to take a shot of Jameson with the bartender. Super cool! Good selection of beer (omg, right now they have Darkness Falls on tap. If you like stouts, get it!) And an awesome selection of house drinks! Highly recommended if you're Uptown!

One of my favorite "home" bars. The fact that they don't have a huge "standard" kitchen but they are still able to make some amazing dishes is incredible. The pizzas are tasty and a must try! With a huge patio, fire pits (for when it's chilly), and that awesome rooftop patio, you can't go wrong. The staff is genuinely nice as well, and they know their drinks. Any time I am in Uptown, this is a MUST for me.

Well, it seems this is the place people go when they get turned away from the more upscale spots in Uptown because of dress code or simply want something more affordable and casual. Drinks are cheapest I've seen Uptown, if you don't mind elbow fighting, missing in action servers or long waits to get them. Gets really packed and busy weekends. Service can be slow or virtually non-existent, music is loud and good for dancing if you can find space to actually dance. Never even bothered to try the food as getting drinks was enough of a hassle. Crowd is much more diverse that other places nearby. I only ended up here a couple times as a stop while bar hopping with friends and once as a complete last resort when we had been all over McKinney Avenue and decided to make one last stop. On every occasion I almost immediately regretted the decision. Much better options within walking distance.

Love this place it's like an oasis in uptown. If you are a real person and want to be able to bar hop in that end of town you should definitely stop in to this bar. Really cool staff very comfortable bar and if you're lucky enough you'll have Becca as your bartender. This is one of the only places that makes Uptown a positive area to go and it is totally worth it.

If you like done alt rock without a grunge setting, this is your place. Laid back enough for jeans, not too laid back that suits or dresses are out of place. Great for happy hour gatherings, big 🔥 pit, fantastic foods for when you need to get your grub on. Have u mentioned the best bartender ever? Becca rocks!

While the drinks are a bit expensive, the barstaff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I'm a massive fan of their Tuesday nights where the bar brings out video game systems from the original NES all the way to the PlayStation 3. If you want some expertly mixed drinks, good ambiance, and a little bit of Mario kart 64 or Rock Band, this is your go to.
