Reviews of 21st Amendment (Night Club)

Boneclaw Walker

It's really going to depend on what you like. On the one hand, their cocktails are really good, and it is a nice Dickson street location. I don't particularly enjoy this location, they don't really have anything all that unique or interesting to recommend them in my opinion. They are just another Dickson street college bar. Somewhat pricey and upscale and they tend to attract the more college age fraternity crowd. Just not my crowd. It's usually very loud and crowded in here, with nothing to do. They don't seem to do much live music, so you're in a loud bar full of frat boys, drinking pricey drinks, and you can't hold much of a conversation without yelling, but there is not usually any live music to provide entertainment instead. That said, I'm pretty sure that the same owner also owns the dive bar out back of 21st Amendment. Literally one of my greatest forms of entertainment is to go sit in Rogers Rec and watch rich college boys walk down what they think is the hallway to the bathrooms, but instead they come out in the local dive bar and pool hall where in my misspent youth, biker gangs hung out with goths, and people used to get knifed on a regular basis. Some serious money used to get laid down on the pool games in there as well. For many years, this bar was lit only by the random assortment of neon signs. It technically had light bulbs, but they were all burned out. There was one actual light bulb hanging over one pool table. There was an urban legend that if that light bulb ever burned out, the bar would close. I miss sitting in the Rec playing Shadowrun campaign with weird college friends, underage as all hell, listening to The Cure on their trash sound system, flirting with weird crazy bikers, and threatening to knife the occasional redneck who got a bit pushy. But, there is still a little bit of that vibe left, while being a much cleaner and safer place to hang out these days. The Rec has cleaned up it's act a ton since 1987, but there's still a definite "boy, you ain't from round here" vibe when daddy's little senator-in-training walks in, and it's great. That said, if they are chill and they can hang, the locals definitely make them welcome. Personally, if you wanted more of a local flavor and a slice of Fayetteville history, my suggestion about 21st Amendment would be go straight down the hallway and out the back into the Rec. And, while you are there, go out the back door of the Rec and turn right, and see what the local court yard full of random food trucks has to offer. There's a mediterranean food truck right next to the wrecks patio that is amazing. However, if you are looking for more of a college bar feel with a bit of a classy vibe to it, you'll probably enjoy 21st Amendment. And like I said, if you have the money, lots of their cocktails are pretty good.

We had a great time! The open front atmosphere is really nice, and the huge fan does a great job of keeping the place cool even through the summer heat.

Eric Carter

Great Pride drink specials!

Timothy Gilbert

Nice place to watch the bikes.

Jacob Herrington

dave brady

Great bar, perfect older crowd atmosphere to be downtown. Awesome service.

Jason Finch

***Bartender's husband groped my wife!*** The bartender's husband was wandering around the bar harassing obviously annoyed customers. When it was our turn to be interrupted by him he pretended to do the "there's something on your shirt - bop the nose" joke but instead GRABBED MY WIFE'S BREAST. My wife had to talk me out of calling the police for sexual assault and instead we just left after finishing our drink. He was waiting at the door wjen we went to leave and tried to force me to high five him. I will be calling the manager on Monday and will nevet step foot im this place again. Horrible.

John Squires

Fun place, but always crowded

Tyler Evans

One of the better bars in Fayetteville. Decently high end, nice atmosphere.

Richard Stevens

No I went to Roger's Rec. The bar got cut in half for a gentrified side and a rowdy side. Profoundly repugnant to me this change is Yoda said. Wainscoting and a huge fan do not a bar make

Mehrzad Adloo

Great roof bar

Adhemir Cardoso

Nice, good drinks!

Jack Wang

My favorite place on Dickson street. Lively atmosphere.

Lydia S

My favorite place to relax after work. Great specials during the week. Chill atmosphere and chill bartenders. Rooftop bar is incredible!! 10/10 would recommend.

Josh Kolditz

Great rooftop bar.

Jordan Roberts

Joke of a bar. Sure the interior is nice enough and the rooftop area is cool, but if you're looking for anything more complex than a vodka tonic, this is not the bar for you. Extremely rude bar staff.

I didn't order any drinks that night but the atmosphere was kinda cool. The game room in the back was the draw for me though, I just wish there was more stuff back in there.

Mike Yunker

Great rooftop lounge

Jennifer Rhodes

Love

Michael Preston

Nice rooftop

Peter Libby

Pretty chill place during the week. Brad, one of the bartenders is a nice guy and easy to talk about whatever!

Merrick Fagan

You'd think a bar called 21st amendment would know how to make a proper Old Fashioned. You'd be mistaken.

Ezekiel Kindle

Great old fashioned!

Weston Hinson

Good hang out atmosphere and drink selection

Kimberley Parker

Love the rooftop bar - no better place to have a cold brew and watch the the day slip into night.

Donna Adams

Loved the friendly people on the balcony

David Martin

Good whiskey selection, decent prices and good bartenders.

Justin Brown

Great atmosphere and cool bartenders. A good place to have a relaxing night out. I really like the rooftop portion of the bar.

Daniel Cato

Bartenders sucked... They wanted to argue about football instead actually having customer service. Got really upset if you aren't a hag fan.

Adrienne Hernandez-Garcia

im from out of town so when iu went here it just could have been a slow day the beers were reasonably priced and it was just a chill place

There are a lot of good jazz bands and venues in the French Quarter, so that alone is not enough to make any one place a must-see. This bar is historic and also crowded, so if you step in, view it, and then leave, that is probably your best bet if you aren’t into being compressed like a sardine. My wife and I had a terrible experience there. We went there around 10pm for a drink, and the place was standing-room only. The music was overly loud for such a small room, so normally we would have immediately left. Instead since we spotted 3 empty stools at the end of the bar, we sat down in the first 2 intending to order drinks. There was a drink left on the bar that I assumed belonged to someone who had gone. A bartender was nowhere to be seen the entire time we were there. Just as I started to move the drink to the end of the bar, an older, very drunk gentleman wearing a cook’s uniform comes up behind me and accuses me of stealing his drink! He tells us to leave his stool(s). We said we didn’t see anybody in those seats, and even so, he is only one person, so why did he need 3 seats? He said he had just gone to the restroom and started to “angry drunk” yell at us a lot of very ugly names. Well, that was bad enough, so we immediately started to leave. But because he was standing in the narrow aisle and refused to move, the only way we could leave was to literally squeeze our bodies past him to get out. Geesh! Now, had a bartender been available behind the bar, none of this confusion would have occurred. So I give this place 1-star for their extreme lack of situational awareness, service, and for having no bartenders visibly on duty. This place is just not worth the hassle- especially when crowded—(unless you don’t care). We won’t be back.

Steven Newman

Good college bar that doesn't feel gross. RB and vodka for only $5!

Adam Derossitte

Fun place

Karen Follett

Sometimes service is a little slow due to how popular and crowded this place can get, but I love their rooftop.

Shelly Cagle

Kind of pretentious, not really my cup of tea.

Maicie Sykes

Loved the rooftop patio

Stephen Ashmore

Basically my main bar. Come here for cocktails and a really nice ambiance. No beer on tap, but a nice selection of bottles. They have a very large selection of liquors however and the bartenders can usually make most drinks depending on who is working.

J Ro

Chill place, top shelf whiskey bar, excellent and knowledgeable bar tenders.

Noah Fetterman

The most important thing when operating a place like this is the staff. It was busy in here and I ordered a few different cocktails and they cranked them out in great time. I asked for a Witty Comeback cocktail and the bartender looked me right in the eye and said, I'm not sure I could confidently make that and recommended some other drinks. I really took that as a sign of responsible bartending and then they whipped me up a great drink. Great humble staff, wonderful selection, and a nice ambiance are all right here.

OWN IT

No luck with them.

Buddy Curtis

Open front and a amazing rooftop bar.

Kristi Orr Dagenhart

One of my favorite bars to go to on Dickson- any day of the week. They have cheap well drinks and beer Monday-Wednesday. It's pretty awesome, and you are likely to meet some cool people at the bar.

Kimberlee Istre

Love this place. When I'm on Dickson this is where I like to sit and hang. Very cozy and friendly staff

B.L. Roper

Great drinks and good atmosphere in the summer.

Melissa Welfel

Poor service and overpriced drinks.

Dylan Metheny

Walked in and ordered 3 drinks, bartender demanded $3 in tips and then told us to get out. Definitely would not recommend if you don't like being harassed about tips.

E Tucker

I was asked by security to provide “papers” for my service animal because the owner asked for that. FYI Look at the ADA laws of 2010. Businesses are not allowed to request “papers” all you are allowed to ask is 1) is it a service animal and …

Corey DeAngelis

Rooftop is great! No cocktail list, but great bartenders.

Raey Sanchez

Favorite bar on Dickson. Can get crowded on game days. Great rooftop great bartenders.

Sheena Lawson

Super fun!

Matthew Wilson

Great whiskey selection

Shyla Simmons

Better prices than most places. Good quality and quantity. If you ask for a surprise and tell them what you like they will give you a great drink

James Lewis

Great bartenders and great drinks!

Mike

Good drinks

Rhiann Rosenthal

Nice place

Michael Maloney

Cool place and fair prices. I hoped that a place named 21st Amendment would specialize in pre or post prohibition style cocktails, but that's not the case here.

Sonjja Ariana

Super nice staff that know how to pour drinks well.
