Get ready to party like a college student with this list of seven bars that have become go-to spots for those looking to unwind and have a good time after class

With summer break in full swing, university students are taking full advantage of their newfound free time to let loose and enjoy the warm weather. The end of the academic year may have marked the end of late nights studying in the library, but it has also opened up the opportunity for students to party in some of the local bars around their universities. From lively rooftop bars to dimly lit speakeasies, the college nightlife scene has something for everyone.

These spots may also be familiar for some college graduates because they used to be in the same places that students from previous academic years have frequented. Now, students of this generation are eager to hit up some of their favorite spots and make some new memories with their friends. With so many options to choose from, it can be hard to decide where to go, but there are a few standout bars that have become popular among current uni students.

Ugly Duck

Despite its name, Ugly Duck is a hidden gem among college students. This dive bar may not look like much from the outside because it’s situated on top of a building. Despite this, its quirky decor and friendly staff make it a must-visit for anyone looking for a unique drinking experience.
