Bars are a group of similar lot assignments introduced in The Sims 3: Late Night. These venues attract celebrities and serve drinks provided by the Mixology skill.

Bars are represented by blue beer bottle map tags. These are the lowest class of juice-selling venue, but also the most inclusive. Few premade bars have bouncers, and the price of food and drink in bars is very affordable. Each type of bar offers an exclusive preset selection of Mixology drinks.

Bars open at 11 AM and close at 3 AM the next day, making them open considerably earlier and longer than other types of juice-selling venues. All bars feature stages for bands to play on at gigs.

Dive Bars are the poorest of all the bars, and the maximum star an NPC will have there is 1. Dive Bars attract Athletic Sims, Daredevils, Party Animals, and Sims that Love the Outdoors. These bars also attract Vampires and Sims in the Criminal career. Bookworms, Cowards, Snobs, Loners and Sims that are Shy or Hate the Outdoors will avoid this bar.

Bars in Bridgeport

Waylon's Haunt

Waylon's Haunt
 
Waylon's Haunt at 30 Packard Lane in Bridgeport.
Happy Hour: 6 PM
Number of floors: 1

Built away from the center of town, next to a shady-looking building, Waylon's Haunt is the lowest of the low, much like its usual patrons. Along with a small dance area and a full assortment of bar games, a plasma-screen TV (that surprisingly hasn't been stolen) is mounted in the corner of the room.


Eugi's

Eugi's
 
Eugi's at 9308 Sterling Parkway in Bridgeport.
Happy Hour: 7 PM

A step up from Waylon's Haunt is Eugi's, which resembles an Irish pub. While it has a shuffleboard table and dart board like all bars, its foosball table has been swapped out for a stand-up arcade cabinet. A small dance area in front of the stage provides entertainment for more athletic-minded locals.

Bridgeport Sports Zone

Bridgeport Sports Zone
 
Bridgeport Sports Zone at 8607 17th Avenue in Bridgeport.
Happy Hour: 5 PM
Celebrity Level: None
VIP access:   
Occult: No

The Bridgeport Sports Zone is the classiest bar. The bouncer keeps out non-normal Sims but otherwise let's everyone enter the common room, which features an arcade and seating, if no dance floor. A VIP room in the back of the bar contains all the classic bar games as well as three wall-mounted plasma screens, but only 2-star celebrities (or anyone with §50) are allowed past the bouncer.
