This legendary honky-tonk is one of the last remaining bars of its kind. With an ambience that directly recalls the well-worn, bittersweet existence found in a Larry McMurtry novel, Adair's is a refreshingly atypical Dallas destination. Graffiti-covered walls surround age-old barstools and tables, while a jukebox cranks out loud country music. The menu is strictly of the greasy-spoon variety with inexpensive burgers and fries, but nobody really comes here for the food. Every weekend an eclectic group of revelers gathers (including the country crowd, Deep Ellum hipsters and nostalgia buffs) for a little two-stepping, a lot of drinking and a raucous good time. This nearly 20-year-old establishment (not counting its pre-Deep Ellum location) also has a couple of pool tables in the back, an appropriate accent for that perfect 'Last Picture Show'-type evening. -- Bradley Harding

    Adairs is not just a bar its a Legend. Adairs is a cool place to hang out, get a cold beer, hear live bands and shoot some pool. Everyone's favorite hungout from Fireman, Lawyers, College students, Bikers and Cowboys. Great Mix of Fun People.

    9/10/2005 was the best night I have ever spent in a bar, yet. Love this place, elbow to ass with beautiful women 21 to 61 and everyone of them was a 10. Great place to spend a Sat. Nite. Who cares how much beer was spilt on my shirt, She sure was pretty.

    Adair's ROCKS - in every way. The crowd is strangely non-Dallas-chic and the music is aLIVE!

    Been going since before I was legally able to drink. Burgers are still a special treat, and the juke box is still the best for new and old classics.

    great place to hang after watching SURVIVOR (NEW series starts Sept.19th), after a game, meeting place before heading to THE BONE. Awesome STAFF!! Only thing keeping this place from being a 5 STAR is the bathrooms!

    Incredible burgers and fries with great music -- plus skater friendly if we want to roll on in after a skate. Great location near downtown Dallas -- Can't believe it didn't make the top ten!
