12 reviews for Dugan's
For a real Atlanta adventure, go to Dugan's later in the evening on Wednesday night (Biker night), fill the jukebox with Widespread Panic songs, and proceed to drink multiple (well-priced, big, and strong) Long Island Ice Teas.
Then, reach into your pocket for the green beans that are left over from your dinner at the BrewHouse in L5P(you had asked the server for a zip lock bag instead of a to go box).
Take out said green beans and proceed to ask other Biker Night patrons if they want "some green".
Then, stumble across the street to MJQ, dance your heart out, and later on, think back fondly on an incredibly fun night out.

Dugans was one of the first spots I was introduced to in Atlanta. I initially was in love with the wings, but after going back lately, I am not so impressed.
They have karaoke on certain nights, and great bar service.
I always hit the one off Ponce, but I think I have been to all three of em in Atlanta.
The drinks will sit you on that azz if ur not careful...
Decent sportsbar though...

Nothing special. This place wasn't all that packed considering that it was the weekend. The food was alright. I was a little disappointed in the wings but apparently they have some decent beer specials.
I don't dislike the place but I'm sure there are sports bars with much better food and ambiance than this one.

This is where I take people who really want to drink. I don't go for the ambiance or the crowd. I go because they serve my martini in two glasses. I get half in a martini glass and other half (really large halves) in a small plastic cup. I call it the unintentional 2 for 1 drink special.
I've eaten there before, but it was greasy bar food, the kind you eat to ease the alcohol's effect on your stomach.

I'm surprised no one has talked about the karaoke at Dugan's yet! Karoake Nights are on the weekends and are a lot of fun (only if you or the people you are with participate, I suppose). I went with a big group of people after a failed trip to Birmingham (long story) and we had a lot of fun. Four or five of us sang karaoke songs and we also did the Soulja Boy and Cupid Shuffle dances -- with no shame, I might add!!! :-) Dugan's is that let-loose kind of place.
The Virgin Strawberry Daquiri was DELISH and the lemon pepper, barbecue and hot wings, and fries, were really good as well. Not the best wings I've had, but good nonetheless.
However, I do have to agree that this Poncey Dugan's is weird. I was turned completely off by the various bras and undergarments hanging above the bar and let's not even get started on parking. It is definitely one of those places where you can't really carry on a conversation, unless you want to continuously shout at whoever you're attempting to talk to. Not a date place AT ALL. Great place to go with friends and watch sports and act silly and eat some "All-American" food.

I've been to Dugan's twice, when I was already drunk and thought it would be funny. This place is really weird. Both times I went with several girls. Both times we sat at the bar. The bartender then proceeded to persist in convincing the girls I was with to take their panties off so he could hang them from the ceiling. Evidently he'd been very successful in this, as there were a ton of panties already up there. At another point, a friend asked where the restroom was and he told her and then said, "Be careful, I might follow you in there." Everyone was laughing, but it was weird.
Dugan's is the kind of place that hangs neon signs in their window about their hot wings, if that tells you anything.
The crowd that seems to frequent this place is a mix of sports bar types and "ATL ballers." We definitely seemed out of place here, but it was more funny than anything.
They also seemed to charge more than average for their drinks, because the bill was huge at the end, and we didn't even drink that much.
I'd avoid Dugan's unless you're in the mood for a good laugh and your friends don't mind being hit on extensively by weird, bald-headed old men.

It's a cool typical sports bar. Nothing fancy. I went on my first date in Atlanta at this place. Good for wing's and drinks.
It's worth at least one trip.
Dugan's is fun. Great place to bring a group of people to watch the game and have drinks. When the weather's nice the patio is a good option. I've always opted for a table over the bar.
Typical bar food, nothing spectacular. Nice and cheap. I'd consider this a first stop before you head on over to the party.

Dugan's is a cool sports bar in Atlanta on Ponce De Leon. It's really a hang out spot that and a good place to meet up with friends for happy hour or a late night out. At Dugan's the alcoholic beverages and appetizers are decent. The menu is All-American serving up wings, burgers, fries, etc.
Dugan's has indoor seating but my preference is the covered patio. The patio is great for people watching and enjoying a nice spring or fall breeze. If you're in Midtown and you just want to unwind, watch some sports or grab a quick bite to eat visit Dugan's.

Check out Dugan's when you want to watch the big game around a ton of excited fans. The food is just something salty and saucy to munch on while talking trash with fans of the rival team.
The spring and summer make this a destination for many Atlantans because of the outdoor patio. You can watch the ball game without needing a baller's budget, and sometimes that is just what you are looking for in a sports bar.
It was a Friday nite 7 yrs past, a spilled drink, a girl inching her man on, A swift right cross, dragging someone across the bar then throwing him over on the bartender's side, there were handcuffs and i needed an escort out. my last fight and one of many nites at Dugans... It took me a few months to go back so the bouncers didn't remember me but i made it back for the wings and beer. that's all that i need. Great spot to get a few drinks in and get ont he road to more docile things.

I think Of Dugan's more as a hang out spot or jump off point for an evening than I do as a sports bar. The televisions and the games all seem like an afterthought in comparison to the drinking and the waitress watching. That's not to say it's a bad place to watch sports, just that it's busy and there's always a lot of background activity going on. Lots of big groups of guys on their sport bikes meet up here before and after rides.
