I went to the Sinclair a while back to watch Antactic play. I liked it both as a bar and as a venue. It's a nice 'change of pace' downtown bar. Plus, they serve Bold City, which is always a plus.

Did you find out if it's possible to get in there if you're 18?

Seems to be a common trait among downtown establishments.
Makes one wish for the old days when downtown entertainment consited of street preachers at the Hemming Plaza and homeless guys you could pay to sing/watch your car.
I hope this isnt the case, i have not been able to make it down there yet.
I will put it to the test…we will see how work boots, a jaguars t shirt, and a pair of kmart jeans affect the “locals”
Im already a bit tired of the “jiffy feet” irony movement in Jax.

I went to The Sinclair this evening and had a terrible experience. I want more than anything for some more bars to open in this town, especially downtown, and everything about The Sinclair could work if the staff were not impossibly rude. Simply stated, these people are in the wrong business. The space was inviting, the music great, and selection of beer and wine was adequate. At my suggestion several of my friends met there this evening. We ordered six bottles of wine and tipped well but the staff were simply rude from the moment we arrived and it only progressed with time to the point it was almost comical. Regretfully, I will never go back to this place and it had such promise. I even liked the monogrammed matchbooks. So if you go make sure to wear your skinny jeans because these people would rather not have your money unless you fit their target demographic.

i've been there a few times now, and it's very nice. a little more quiet than most bars, which i enjoy. also, they have Lazy Magnolia on draft, which is super tasty. they allow smoking inside, but with the nigh ceilings and fans, the atmosphere isn't smokey at all. non-smokers rejoice!
