Tipton Street Pub was a fun stop during our night out in downtown Johnson City. By day it feels…read morelike a pretty typical neighborhood pub, with booth seating on one side and the bar on the other. As the evening goes on, though, the music gets much louder and the atmosphere shifts into more of a nightlife vibe. It felt like a mix between a local pub and a late-night hangout, with people enjoying drinks and making the most of the evening. Definitely added a bit of character to Johnson City's downtown scene.

I am extremely disappointed that I flew from The Bahamas to Johnson City & my first stop upon…read morearrival was to Tiptons Bar only to be told that they do not accept "foreign Id's" and that I am not allowed in their bar unless I bring a passport.. because my Government Issued drivers license isn't good enough. When did it become a crime to be a foreigner & why would anyone want to walk around with their passport just to visit a college bar ? It was an extremely tacky and disappointing experience especially since I loved tiptons when I was a college student at ETSU. I will not fight to spend my hard earned money anywhere therefore I will not be visiting a bar that discriminates against my nationality and identification. Very unwelcoming and disheartening... so much for supporting local businesses. I am a world traveler and have NEVER being denied entry anywhere else in the world. Pathetic.

Right in the heart of Downtown Kingsport is a great spot to hang out with friends, enjoy a game of…read morebilliards or play other arcade games. Occupying 2 stores space, there is plenty of elbow room for multiple games of pool with dining at a booth in the middle of establishment or at the bar. The exposed brick wall gives Shooters its charm and casual ambiance. The menu offers up classic bar food options. All of which my party ordered was devoured. And as one previous review mentioned that the food didn't leave you feeling heavy after eating, so that is definitely a good feeling. Place your order for food at the bar located at the back of the room. You get a number placard and head back to your chosen table. The staff will bring out your order there when it's ready. And because this is such a casual, laid-back atmosphere, if you want refills or another drink - head back to the bar. :) Not a big deal. Pool tables are coin-operated (4 quarters to play until all the billiard balls are in the pockets). Don't worry, there is a change machine there if you don't have the coins at the ready. I believe the arcade also takes coins, but some like the crane game can take cards (at least that's what someone in my party mentioned). This venue is great for players of all ages! We are happy that a great place like Shooters is here in Kingsport.

There wasn't live entertainment, just karaoke, which is offered in many places downtown for no cover. It was also not posted which, from my experience in Atlanta, they always post that there is a cover outside. Just feels scummy. It's a very average bar that offers literally nothing special. There is no great view, the service is the same as any bar, it doesn't even have a nice decor; there is no reason to be charging an entrance fee. Enjoyed the visit but will not return.

Hey friends! I went out with some new coworkers to this cool spot downtown…read more This spot is the rose that grew from concrete. Bristol is a rural town but certain areas are becoming more chic, such as this rooftop bar. I ordered a brown sugar old fashioned to start with. It was AMAZING. I would definitely recreate it at home, the flavors balance perfectly. For my entree, I had the chicken sandwich. The batter was perfectly crispy and seasoned well. I like that they use chicken thighs, which are juicy and makes for a delicious sandwich. Fries were okay, I wish they weren't steak fries. +Our server was friendly! She recommended great menu items. +Limited parking +Outdoor seating with a beautiful overlook of the city. Indoor seating as well. +Prices are a little above average. +Restaurant was clean and well stocked. I hope enjoy!

Hands down, people, this is the best bar in Bristol. Why?…read more Happy Hour! M-F from 2-5pm, all the Shareables are 50% off and drinks are really discounted! It's a really great way to try the food! Food (5/5): Elevated bar food! The kitchen from the downstairs restaurant, Vivian's Table, makes the food and it is really delicious. We tried the popcorn shrimp, which are breaded and crispy. Really great. We of course, had to try the Mountain of fries - these are matchstick fries and the best part was the three different sauces that come with it. The chipotle ketchup was my favorite. We also tried the wings, which were good..I am not a huge wing fan, though. The jalapeno poppers (wrapped in bacon with a cheese filing) were great, as were the steak nachos. And of course, the hummus with the fry bread was great, too. My hubby liked the hazy IPA that was on draft. Even better at $3.50 a pint during Happy Hour. I really liked the cocktails - some of my favorite was a new espresso based tequila (for the summer menu) and the creamsicle. Service (5/5): Everyone up here is super nice - the manager Landry, bartender Raine and all the servers were really fantastic. Ambiance (5/5): Location - This is the top of the Bristol Hotel, and one of the only rooftop bars in Bristol. From the top you have a lovely view of the famous Bristol sign, great when it lights up at night.
