Pinkie Master's Lounge

If a dive bar atmosphere is your speed, be sure to check out Pinkie Master's, a Savannah institution famous for its gin cocktails in plastic cups, free-flowing PBR and laid-back atmosphere. Regulars love the neighborhood bar for its reasonably priced drinks, political memorabilia-lined walls and interesting history. A favorite story among patrons is Jimmy Carter's famous visit to Pinkie's in 1978. The story goes that Carter, then governor of Georgia, announced his plan to run for president on top of Pinkie's bar. Today you'll find a steady crowd of friendly locals--everyone from old money Savannah natives to art college students to young professionals--who enjoy good conversation just as much as cheap beer.
