Callaghan’s Irish Social Club

Established in 1946, Callaghan’s Irish Social Club was originally a members-only club where patrons had to ring a buzzer to gain entry, and regulars were even given their own door key. Over the years, those restrictions were lifted, ownership changed hands and now everyone is welcome. Callaghan’s has received numerous accolades, including being voted “The Best Bar in America” by Esquire, “The South’s Best Bar” by Garden & Gun® and Southern Living, and “Best Burger in Alabama” by USA Today. Callaghan’s serves lunch and dinner daily and brunch on Sunday. There’s also live music almost every night; check the website for the live music and events calendar.
