About Blue Sky Bar

Many craft beers & cocktails served in a cozy wood-paneled bar with an outdoor rooftop patio.

Located at 247 E Broad St Ste B, Athens, GA 30601, Blue Sky Bar operates as a bar serving Athens in Georgia. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

This group covers the non-Asian restaurants, cafes, bars and food businesses that also appear in a mixed-cuisine food scene, including American diners, pizza, Mexican food, burgers, steakhouses and bakeries. Standard US restaurant norms apply: lunch and dinner service with a quieter stretch between, cards and tap-to-pay accepted almost everywhere, and a tip of 15-20% customary for table service. Fast food and quick-service counters expect payment up front and tipping is optional. Bars check ID for anyone who looks under 30, and the drinking age is 21 nationwide. Many restaurants in this group take reservations online through third-party platforms, while casual and fast-food spots are walk-in only. Sales tax is added at the register on top of the menu price and varies by city and state, so the final total is usually a few percent higher than the posted prices suggest.

The business lists hours on 6 days of the week. Typical hours are 2 pm–2 am. Note that it does not open on Sunday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

Athens is in Georgia, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. Getting around Athens is easiest by car; street parking is metered in busy downtown areas, and most suburban businesses have their own lot. Ride-share apps such as Uber and Lyft operate across Georgia's larger cities, and public transit varies from extensive to minimal.

Best bar in Athens and it’s not even close. The people that run this place are exceptional; knowledgeable, kind and tolerant. The drinks are thoughtful and made with care and the ambience is a perfect upstairs space.

This is a lovely place. Typically quieter and slower than other Athens bars, making it a nice escape to avoid the crowds. The bar is located on the second floor, has nice bar and booth seating, and nice window views onto north campus. They have a great selection of alcohols, including a large range of craft beers. The bartender Parker was incredible. He was funny, kind, talked with us, and gave us incredible service. He makes wonderful drinks, I was very happy with what we ordered. Very nice bar to relax and have a drink at.

Sam, the bartendress, was great. My boyfriend likes stouts, which are hard to find. Blue Sky Bar had 3 and Sam was able to describe them so my boyfriend picked the best one for him. I am no fan of stouts but I tried it and thought it was great. Then I asked for a jalapeΓ±o flavored beer. Sam said the bar didn’t have one but then she made two draft beers with spicy bitters for me to tryπŸ’™. We sat in a great booth that overlooked the campus. We did leave after we smelled an employee, I assume, smoking weed nearby behind a closed door

VIBE! What a chill place with a 70’s soundtrack. Huge variety of brews served from the fridge or draft options. Cool chatty bartender. Entrance on Broad street via staircase.

I think this is the one of the classiest bars in the Classic City. The Blueberry Buck ($7) was delicious. It’s a little expensive for Athens, but they use nicer alcohol and the cocktails are more specialty, so the higher prices are justified. The music is low, so you can hear each other. They have a cute outside area. The bathrooms had soap and paper towels so yay for Blue Sky! Nice bartenders. We’ll be back.
