Great place for a chill night with friends. Their live music is always on point and the drinks are reasonably priced. I went here with a friend and stayed for a couple hours because the vibe was nice. The staff is really cool and happy to help with anything you need. It s fun to go here on the weekends and sometimes people start to dance haha

Was charged $80.92 for three $7 shots. My tab should have been $21, but I was charged $60.92 and the bartender added himself a $20 tip on top. It s been weeks and there s no way to get in touch with management to sort this out.. watch your tab

Got punched in the face right inside the door by some people who wanted to start a fight. I had my phone in my hand so naturally I smashed it into the perpetrators face. Ended up going home with someone elses blood on my shirt and a swollen jaw. The music is great though. 12/10 would go again. Edit in 2022: still terribly lovable

Pretty cool bar that focuses on shots. They have a huge range of shots, and their menu is easy to read. Everything is broken down into price groups and their overall top ten shots. The overall vide is nice with places for live music as well. There was a DJ the night that we went on the rooftop area. Id come back here for sure.

Great selection of fun shots and cocktails (I like their Cookie milkshake - think Rumchata). Id recommend going with friends and getting a round or two. Second level has some games but my favorite is the rooftop bar and dance floor. Ive seen some nice in person sets and DJs

I always like stopping in at Buckshot when Im on 6th; they have some of the best variety of shots and cocktails downtown. The bartenders never have a problem with my many questions about the wall of delicious shots that they offer. Great place to pregame with some cheap drinks and cool atmosphere.

Ive been to Buckshot a handful of times and I never seem to know what to expect every time I arrive, other than knowing there is an extensive menu of shots to order from. Usually the roof top is open but there have been weekend nights I went there and only downstairs was open. When the roof top is open, they offer beers, cocktails and hard seltzers. There is also arcade games on the second floor and some form of music on the rooftop. This place tends to be very popular amongst younger adults and can get crowded quickly in the later hours of the night, especially on weekends.

One of my favorite bars on 6th! A huge and bumpin rooftop patio, and three dance floors! The back room is always a great time to dance and get wild on the weekends, and the arcade games and patio upstairs are great on slower nights! Every room is plying something different but always a bop. Will see y all again this weekend!

Very cool spot. We were there a little earlier on a Thursday night so it wasn t very crowded at the time (take that as a good or a bad, that s up to you). The drink menu is extensive, so we got some cucumber kamikaze shots and they were actually really palatable. Theres a cool upstairs, downstairs, and outside area so definitely a large space to explore there with 3 separate bars. Seems like a lot of fun!
