One of my personal favorite little gems on Broadway. I came in here twice and both times I was greeted by friendly service, and great live music. The old time creaky wood floors, stool lined bar top, and dimly lit atmosphere is exactly what we were looking for on Broadway. Live music (while we were there) was mostly singer/songwriter soul country, mixed with some outlaw southern rock. A nice change of pace from the generic, cookie cutter, cover bands that are available any time of day up and down Broadway. Bootleggers is apparently known for terrific moonshine. We heard excellent things, however i do not drink liquor so i can not personally vouch for it. I will say that the beer selection was excellent and as I recall, the beer prices were towards the lower end of what you have to pay on Broadway. I believe domestic beers on a Saturday night were $4.00 which you will quickly find out, is quite a Broadway bargain lol. Bootleggers is the ideal example of what I was hoping to find in a live music honky tonk bar while...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreCool hole in the wall style it's got going. The bar was unique and had a wide arrangement of moonshine and liquor. The beer selection was horrible, n Nothing of interest for those that like beer. Miller lite and Busch are.ok, but a better selection of IPAs or ales or e en stouts would be ideal..even a local beer would suffice. Also putting the bottles on the very top shelf was poor marketing. I couldn't see the beer selection because there was zero lighting on that part of the shelf. The rest of the set up for the liquor and moonshine was the main focus and would draw anyone looking for liquor. However beer and small craft breweries have become just as popular and the style bar would do better with being able to see that or choose that.
The live music was amazing though. The two people I was able to hear today were outstanding and very good at keeping a crowds attention as well.
Overall, Id come back and recommend this over kid rock's...

Melody was warm, friendly, and attentive from the moment she greeted me. I was alone and she took the time to chat with me about my favorite drinks and made me a fun moonshine bevie. Her enthusiasm for her job was palpable.
The bar itself is cozy and intimate, with a great selection of beers and cocktails.
Overall, my experience at Bootleggers was top-notch thanks to Melody's fantastic service. If you're looking for a great spot to grab a drink or meet up with friends, look no further. And be sure to ask for Melody - she'll take great...
