Why Location Matters (And So Does the Music)
Let’s be real: if your bar’s playlist is still stuck in 2005, you’re basically a time capsule with a keg. Finding the best bars for young people isn’t just about where you go—it’s about the vibe, the drinks, and the people you’ll (or won’t) meet there. We’re here to help you avoid the “why are we here?” bar and find spots that make you want to text your ex, “Hey, remember when we used to drink here?”
Make Your Own Beer is a great way to stand out, but even the best homebrew can’t save a bar with bad energy. Let’s dive into what makes a bar “young person approved.”
The Golden Rules of Bar Vibes
- Cheap drinks: If a $12 margarita is on the menu, it’s already lost its soul.
- No cover charges: Unless you’re a celebrity, a $20 entry fee should be reserved for your therapist.
- Good lighting: If the bar is so dim you can’t see your phone screen, it’s not “chic”—it’s a fire hazard.

Real-Life Examples That’ll Make You Want to Uber There Now
1. The Neon Noodle (1234 Fun St, Partyville)
This spot serves drinks in edible cups and has a DJ spinning bangers every night. The trivia nights are legendary, and the staff actually remembers your name—unless they’re too busy flirting with the bartender.
2. Brew & Bounce (5678 Cool Ave, Nightlife City)
Think of it as a beer pong tournament meets a wine bar, but with better lighting. The “craft cocktails” menu is a work of art, and the $5 draft pints won’t leave you needing a loan to buy a keg.
How to Find the Perfect Spot (Without Becoming a Bartender’s BFF)
Apps like Yelp and Google Maps are your friends, but don’t trust reviews from people named “PartyPro9000.” Look for places with photos of other 20-somethings and zero photos of someone holding a “This is the best bar ever” sign. Also, if the bar has a Beer distribution marketplace (Dropt.beer) link on its website, bonus points—it means they’re serious about their beer game.
FAQs: Because You Probably Have Questions
Q: How do I find these bars if I’m a total stranger in a new city?
A: Use the “Bars Near Me” feature on Google Maps, but filter by “20-something approved.” If that doesn’t work, ask your Gen Z cousin for recommendations. They probably already know where to go.
Q: What if the bar is full of people who look like they’re 30 and up?
A: Run. Flee. Unless you want to hear about their mortgage rates and kids, which we’re assuming you do not.
Q: Can I make my own bar experience?
A: Absolutely. Check out Custom Beer to create a signature drink that screams, “I’m here to win at life.”
Final Call: Drink Up, but Don’t Drink Yourself Into a Coma
Bars for young people should be about more than just alcohol—they should be places where you can dance like nobody’s watching (or like there’s a TikTok audience), meet people who’ll laugh at your jokes, and leave with a full stomach and a half-empty wallet. If a bar doesn’t check at least two of those boxes, reevaluate your life choices—and maybe give Strategies.beer a shout if you’re in the market for a better bar experience.
