“ Established cool bar still keeping it fun and fresh after many years. Great outdoor seating. Perfect location downtown Tuscaloosa, just across street from the public parking deck. Excellent cocktails, good beer selection. Friendly bartenders. Comfortable booths which are a rare find now. Many folks refer to this place as a *dive bar* in reviews, but it looks clean... and isn't very dark, smoky, or loud (so not very divey to me ). Have fun! ”
“ Catch 22 is a wonderful place with a great environment. As well as a wonderful and respectful staff! When in town that’s the one place I’d recommend to stop in, no matter if it’s for only a drink. Some of the the best mixologists in the business! ”
“ Love this place!!! Great infused vodkas and whiskeys! Definitely a Tuscaloosa staple for those looking for great drinks you can't really find anywhere else! Always incredible service and excellent bar tenders Sarah really rocks, but the others have always delivered phenomenal service too! In addition to infusions, they have a pretty extensive cooler full of craft and mainstream beers, prosecco, and wine! Always a less student-filled crowd while keeping and excellent downtown location! What's not to love??? ”
“ I love Catch 22. Friendly and efficient bartenders, delicious and unique drinks, a cute outdoor patio and comfy booths inside - what more could you want? I love the coffee martini, but this place truly has something for everyone. I highly recommend this bar. ”
“ Half cocktail bar, half dive bar. The best of both worlds! Stiff drinks, sports, and good company. What else does one need? ”
“ Great atmosphere, music, and cocktails. People and bartenders were extremely friendly and made me feel like I was a regular when it was my first time there. I will definitely be returning. ”
“ Awesome drinks. Every infusion is fantastic! Quick service in a chill bar with indoor and outdoor seating. Today, I tried the pepperoncino infusion and got it in a spicy bloody Mary. It was fantastic. The bourbon peach is also worth a shout out. ”
“ Beautiful place my first time in Tuscaloosa and in a bar! I loved it ”
