Located at 1513 Butler Avenue, Nickie's 1971 Bar & Grill is pretty much right in the middle of where you want to be. It is close to both the beach and the Tybee Pier and Pavilion, on the south end of the island. And, while it may seem to be your typical sports bar, it's a hit with the locals as well as with visitors.
The full bar serves shots, beer and margaritas – or whatever else you feel like drinking. There is smoking at the bar, or outside on the patio, so keep that in mind.
There is a lot to keep you entertained at Nickie's Bar & Grill. This sports bar has several large screen TVs so you can watch the football game or other sporting events while you drink something cool and refreshing. You can play some pool for fun or try your skill (and luck) in the pool tournament. There are trivia contests and Texas Hold'em Tournaments. You can play darts with your friends or take on the local crowd. And, of course, there is karaoke. Tybee loves its karaoke, and Nickie's 1971 Bar & Grill is no exception.
