  Love the burgers, best in town. Great atmosphere and music. Always at least 7 people in there at any time of the day.

  Corey dragged me here and it was Surprisingly Good. The mix when you walk in looks like 30 percent baseball caps and it looks a bit rough, but everyone's pleasant enough and there are two pool tables in the back. we were not swooned over nor ignored by the wait staff. maybe a juke box causes a bit of ear pain but did not when i went, maybe i'm lucky. they have several tequilas and they have pineapple juice. The bartenders (both female) were dancing behind the bar, which was awesome. the bar itself looked old and like it could hold me up if i drank to much. the fries i had were good, and they seem to have a lot of options for food. you could go here. you probably wouldn't want to meet anyone, but you could eat something, play pool or play songs.

  Really enjoyed a few games of pool here.  Kind of tight quarters, but totally a good time!  Easily made conversations with people sitting back by the pool tables.  The bartenders there were super friendly and made some pretty good concoctions!  Definitely the kind of place to kick back and relax.

  This is a dive bar just a few blocks (well maybe a 5-10min walk) from my place.  I've lived in the Tri-Cities for 11+ years and have always drove by this bar and noticed a crowd of cars and people here, and secretly wondered what it was like inside its doors.  The other night, the mystery was unveiled.
  
  It was Open Mic Night, and after we plowed through the smokers huddled around the entrance, we walked past a guitarist and stand-up bassist.  And yes, this place was fairly hoppin'.  We couldn't find a table in the bar area, so we walked cool-ly to the back and managed to find a table near the pool tables.  
  
  The bartender/grill-woman/bouncer approached us, "Can I see your IDs?"  She had a barbell piercing through the bridge of her nose, and had either a Betty Page or Betty Boop style going on---in other words, I liked her style (especially for the conservative Tri-Cities).
  
  We had a pitcher and enjoyed the frat boy, adrenalin-filled, screams of the guys playing pool--I could have done without this soundtrack, so I found myself walking to the bar and listening to the music a few times (surprisingly, the musical performances were pretty good).  The guy/girl ratio was definitely weighted more toward dudes--so no potential for falling in love here.
  
  All in all, Uptown Bar & Grill was all I thought it would be.  It was a nice place to find some local flavor.
