The Colony

Reviews & Tips

• 0

  Decently priced drinks, great music and friendly crowds make this a great place to go any day of the week.
  
  There is usually a live band playing and they even bring out of town bands in. I've heard some amazing local and out of state bands here and come whenever I want live music.
  
  I'd recommend it for people to come with one or a bunch of friends looking for a relaxed atmosphere an live tunes.  There's a spacious patio and decently sized main area and they even have a pool table in the side room.
  
  It recently changed from smoking to non-smoking inside with smoking allowed on the patio = good change.

  Ahhh, the colony... You smell of old style, hipsters, and damp smoke.
  
  The colony has live music, cheap beer, a fireplace, and a pool table. On top of all that, the bartenders were beyond friendly to my husband and I on our first time in.
  
  The jukebox is jammin some sweet tunes while we watch baseball on the flatscreen and listen to tonight's band warm up and do sound checks. The only thing that could make this place better is if that popcorn machine next to the jukebox were in full operation tonight.

  Great live music. The drinks prices are real reasonable.

  The fireplace is awesome in the winter and the outdoor seating is tops in the summer.  This little dive bar has it all, plus plenty of facial hair to boot.  Don't go there, though-- I like it when it's quiet.

  If you're looking for a hipster vibe, this is as close to it you'll find in Tulsa. Really, it's one of the best indie dives you'll find anywhere. Albeit smoke filled, the music is gnarly and the beer is cheap. Cheers to 8 beers for $8.

  I am torn when it comes to The Colony. The smoke is thick, but  they have great local music. And they have 7 for $7. And as a bonus there is a diner for post-partying breakfast conveniently located across the parking lot. Though generally when I leave I want to shower, not eat pancakes.
  
  Still, if you don't mind the smoke and are looking for a cool place to down a few beers and hear great bands play live, original music for a low cover or often for free The Colony is worth checking out.

  So when in Rome.... or rather when in Tulsa do smoke cigarettes inside. That's right... you're gonna smell any way so do it. Okay The Colony is my favorite dive when I am visiting Tulsa over holidays. It's a British themed pub which makes it tops in my book. I dig the smoking thing, but it does make you sick (If you're asthmatic this is not a safe place for you.) There's something really rad about snapping a pic with friends and noticing you are in what actually resembles London fog. Oh yeah... they have this deal where you get like twelve beers on a tray. Shall we sport the Union Jack in Oklahoma? I believe we should.
