The staff is friendly and attentive. I played bingo on my last visit while drinking brew. I also play classic retro arcade games on their free play machine which is one of my favorite things to do here. The pinball machines are great as well. I highly recommend that this as a must-see tap house and arcade whenever you visit Tuscaloosa!

1831 is a nice relatively new addition to Temerson Square in the downtown area of Tuscaloosa. It's…read morea typical Tuscaloosa bar with some not so typical features. The owner of this bar knows how to keep things looking clean and in tip top shape. I'm serious about the cleanliness and the ladies bathroom is never out of order or disgusting. This is a rarity for Tuscaloosa and most college towns. I attended school at UA and lived in Athens, GA while working at UGA so I know this for a fact. So far so good and I hope they keep it up! Overall, 1831 is a great place to enjoy yourself after an Alabama game during football season with friends for a variety of reasons. It has good local beer from some of the emerging area Tuscaloosa breweries (Black Warrior, Druid City, etc), plenty of selections from Birmingham's amazing breweries (Avondale, Trim Tab, or Good People), friendly staff and bartenders, routinely has good local rock and funk bands playing, and is a place to meet the fun loving people who pack it on the weekend. 1831 is a must stop for anyone doing bar hopping from out of town in Tuscaloosa and a great new place for locals too!

There were several to choose from even a fun looking rainbow bagel. I got the bacon, egg & cheese on asiago bagel and loved it. My husband really enjoyed his ham, egg & cheese on a plain bagel. They make them to order, no prepared egg patty (yay!), so it took a couple of minutes which I'd wait double the time for if needed. There is a large fridge section of specialty beers & wines. I enjoyed checking them out while I waited. There are also several cozy seating options that looked inviting to post up for hours doing work or enjoying time with others. There are a few tables out front too. I'd definitely go back when in the area and hope to one day try their lunch specials too.

The Quad deviled eggs were an interesting concept. Can't say I'd recommend them. The Signature 205 Dip was not good. It's made with 4 cheeses, but the cream cheese over powers the entire dish. The Stephy cocktail may not be something everyone likes, but I really enjoyed it. Dr. Pepper with bourbon sounds odd, but I loved it. Hopefully you made it this far. The Autumn Ember Dip was fantastic. It was by far the best item we had. If you don't order anything else from the menu, you have to get the dip!! You can't go wrong.

The server we had was pleasant and apologetic, but the wait time for our food (party of 6, but nothing too intricately ordered) was borderline unacceptable. We were on a time constraint due to a concert that night, and very nearly had to leave when half of our party hadn't even received our food yet. I had the "Elevated Burger", which was pretty good but nothing special. I had ordered onion rings as my side, and when my dish was finally served I had gotten fries instead- but again, too little time to raise a fuss. We all enjoyed our dinner, but the wait ate up any goodwill we had. The view, however, is fantastic especially as the sun begins to set. Maybe when I have more time to kill, I'll give 205 another shot but until I see an improvement in service it will not be a high priority.
