month agoI'm a 52 year old lady and I don't drink but I must say I thoroughly enjoyed myself! Everyone was super friendly and me and my daughter's had a blast! You'll see us again!!

3 years agoSunday Brunch Spanglish Dish was delish...w/ perfectly charred Jalapenos to add more spice if you need more heat.... The Mixlogist at the Sister Bar are well crafted individuals ... The service is superb...

5 months agoI had a very good time here, the service was really good despite it being extremely packed. The person who greeted us at the front door was also nice. The drinks were okay, but the atmosphere was lively and had a lot of fun games. The mixed crowed and different type of people in their put me at ease. I’m somewhat of an introvert and have been judged by people in bars before because I’m terrible with social cues (I’m autistic). This is the only bar I’ve had a good experience with in ABQ so far, kinda sad to say. Everyone likes to assume you’re intoxicated because you don’t have the same communication skills as other people 😕.

5 months agoIt's a neat funky bar with very acceptable tacos. It's like a dive bar, but clean and chill. And thanks to that bartender that plays Eagles of Death Metal, and all the workers there. Probably a good work culture, you can tell. Haven't been to a music performance there yet.

year agoVery nice entertainment amd bar downtown Albuquerque pinball machines and music. Very good food reasonable price. Expect plenty of crowd mixed younger and older , gets a bit warm in there but what you expect from popular place . It's a must see and a night to remember.

6 months agoWas there for last Saturday's 80s music video dance party. We had a terrific time, great selection of music. I really like how the dance floor is separated from the tables. The place has a great vibe and everyone was having a good time. This was my first visit to Sister bar but I will definitely keep an eye out for future events. $10 cover was more than fair and as someone who isn't great with late nights, I love that it started at 7pm

year agoFull disclosure, we didn't eat, we did however have drinks and explore the property... if you enjoy eclectic locations you will LOVE, Sister! With 10+ pinball machines, an old photo booth and various other old timey vending machines this place has a "shot back in time" feel. While at the same time it's cozy and relaxing, smooth jazz plays over the sound system too. The bartender really knows his stuff, a lil snarky but in a fun way. All in all if you are looking for a truly unique place to grab a drink, learn some history and kick back Sister bar is the place for you. Oh and they have live music in the back in the evenings!!

year agoFirst time here and it was crowded. But I walked in during a PinBall tournament. Who knew. Very cool place staff were really great. Ordered hamburger that came with fries and a beer or root beer for 11.00 dollars. Opted for the root beer . Was really happy with it. I will be going back. Maybe play pinball next time.

2 months agoDelicious burgers, and other bar food! Love how many great pinball machines they always have on hand. Cool decor and vibes. Host fun dance nights like 80's and Millennium Night, as well as other fun concerts too.
Elijah
month ago⚠️21+ only! Grab a brew at an arcade gem downtown. Food is good too!! (asada fries or the burrito are tasty). They do little concerts & theme nights so sometimes there's a cover at the door!
