The Collins Bar

The Collins Bar is Birmingham, Alabama's premier craft cocktail establishment located in the downtown loft district at 2125 2nd Avenue North. As the city's first dedicated craft cocktail bar established in 2012, The Collins Bar operates without a fixed cocktail menu, instead engaging patrons in personalized conversations about their preferences. The experienced bartending team then creates thoughtful, unique cocktails tailored to individual tastes and occasion. Owner Andrew Collins pioneered Birmingham's craft cocktail scene by focusing entirely on beverage craftsmanship without sharing space with another restaurant concept. The intimate bar atmosphere and custom-creation approach have made it a landmark destination for craft cocktail enthusiasts. Open Monday-Thursday 4pm-midnight, Friday until 2am, and Saturday from 4pm, it remains a testament to quality cocktail culture in downtown Birmingham.
