In addition to beer, the Original Pinkie Masters will also have frozen drinks including Bushmills plus ginger and watermelon frosé." - Barbara Skidmore

Best Bars in Savannah, Georgia | Eater Carolinas

"Pinkie Masters, known to locals as Pinkies, is a Savannah legend. This old-school cash-only bar has kept its humble quirky vibe consistent throughout the year including the neon rotating PBR signs, multi-colored string lights, and tastefully tacky decor. Although frequented mostly by the neighbors and community, there are no strangers once entering the bar. Canned beer is the most popular order here." - Barbara Skidmore

"The Original Pinkie Masters is an old-school, cash-only bar that has stayed consistent throughout the years, right down to the neon PBR signs, multi-colored string lights, and tastefully tacky décor. A great example of not judging a book by its cover, the dive has a real sense of history: Jimmy Carter once stood above it to make a speech. If The Original Pinkie Masters is good enough for a President, it's certainly good enough for the average beer-drinker." - Barbara Skidmore

Cash-only landmark since the 1950s, glowing neon, cheap cans, and a lived-in jukebox soundtrack. Frequently cited by Eater and travel writers as essential; beloved for no-frills late nights and Savannah lore.

Stumbled across this iconic and historic dive bar on Saturday. (Thanks to Yelp) It was close to 100’ outside and there was a full bar inside. Cash only. (You can take your drinks to go.) Not food service. No tabs. No outside seating. It does have tons of local flair! Everyone seems to know each other and they were very welcoming to us. We stayed for a while and really enjoyed our visit to Pinky’s.

If you want a local pub and a place that exudes local character, look no more… Great place to simply hang out and have a cocktail before the show at the Savannah Playhouse. Yes it does look a little rough but has grit and is real AND the owner makes a good Old Fashioned drink - he’s been doing it for a while I think.

Pinkie Masters was recommended to us by friends and new friends alike. It is AWESOME. Total throwback, no frills, but Matt the bartender was fabulous, and the atmosphere can‘t be beat.

Cool little dive bar. Cash only but they have an atm. Lots of pics and 70s Pabst decor. Jukebox and darts. Chill atmosphere with diverse crowd. David Lee Roth poster. Jimmu Carter came here in the 70s! One of the oldest bars in town. There is some history about the original owner.

This place is good. Cash only. Old type vibes. Staff is great. Crowd varies wildly so you never know who’s gonna be here. Check it out if you like beer. Cheap PBR

Take cash and have a great time in one of the best dive bars in Savannah! What a tradition to try in Savannah. We visited the legendary Pinkie Masters. Our bartenders were really funny and had lots of energy.

Everything you want a bar to be. No frills. No nonsense. Excellent service. Padded Chicago rail. Ice cold beer. Whiskey. Analog jukebox.

We accidentally stumbled into this little local pub! The atmosphere was fantastic, thanks to the locals. Everyone was really friendly to us tourists. One gentleman even shared a story about how President Jimmy Carter once sat on the other side of the bar here. God rest his soul! They have a huge variety of draft beers. The bartender was also very cheerful, which really added to our good mood! The price-quality ratio is excellent! It’s a must-stop during a sightseeing tour of Savannah! It’s good to know that Savannah is one of only three cities in the U.S. where you can drink alcohol on the street, either partially or fully.
