Night spots for older adults

Question

I'll be in Savannah this Wednesday through Sunday with a group of mature woman. We're in our 50s. Where are some night spots that we won't feel out of place at? Thank you

Answer

Savannah has a variety of nighttime spots that cater to mature crowds, offering relaxed atmospheres, live music, good cocktails, and opportunities to socialize without feeling like you’re at a college bar or nightclub. Since you’re in your 50s and traveling with a group of women, the key is choosing places that combine charm, comfort, and a slightly upscale vibe.

Here are some top recommendations:

Green Truck Pub – A cozy spot for craft beer and small bites, very laid-back with a friendly, local crowd. Great for a casual evening out.
Jazz’d Tapas Bar – Located on Broughton Street, this is a small, intimate spot with live jazz, tapas-style food, and wine. Perfect for a relaxed evening with conversation and music.
The Peregrin Rooftop Bar (Perry Lane Hotel) – A classy rooftop bar with stunning views, signature cocktails, and a sophisticated atmosphere. Good for sunset drinks or a quieter night out.
Artillery Bar – Upscale cocktail lounge with an extensive menu of craft cocktails and a quiet, elegant environment.
Chart House / Rocks on the Roof – Located near the river, offering beautiful views and comfortable seating for drinks and light bites; ideal for groups who want ambiance without loud music.

For live music without the club scene:

Good Times Jazz Club
The Jinx

Additional tips:

Midweek evenings (Wednesday–Friday) tend to be less crowded, making it easier to enjoy conversation and a relaxed atmosphere.
Consider starting with dinner at a nice restaurant (like The Grey, Treylor Park, or Vic’s on the River), then walking to a nearby lounge or bar.
Rooftop bars often provide a good compromise — city views, ambient music, and a more adult crowd without the rowdiness of traditional nightclubs.

Overall, for your group, sticking to cocktail lounges, jazz bars, rooftop venues, and smaller pubs will ensure you feel comfortable and have a pleasant night out without feeling out of place.
