The Bar: Local Flavor Meets Late-Night Energy

Not every night needs bright lights and big crowds—sometimes you just want a cozy corner, a cold drink, and a game on TV. That’s exactly what we found during our visit to The Bar at Center Pointe in Summerlin—one of seven The Bar locations scattered across the Las Vegas valley.

Whether you’re catching the game, ordering late-night snacks, playing your favorite slots, or sipping wine with a friend, The Bar hits the sweet spot between cozy neighborhood hangout and high-quality hospitality.

Your Game-Day Living Room Away from Home

The Bar @ Center Pointe exudes the kind of warm familiarity you’d expect from a long-time favorite. Plush seating, low lighting, and a welcoming staff set the tone the moment you walk in. It’s just buzzing enough to feel alive without being overwhelming.

Televisions line the walls broadcasting sports of every kind—whether you’re into football, baseball, basketball, or a good UFC match, there’s always something to watch. The background music is upbeat without being intrusive, and the service is impressively quick, even on a busy night.

Food That Surprises—and Delivers

Let’s talk about the food. You might expect basic bar fare, but what we found was a menu packed with elevated comfort food and shareable bites that far exceed your typical sports bar lineup. Every item is made with care, flavor-packed, and clearly designed to keep guests coming back.

We started with a glass each of red and white wine. Both were crisp, smooth, and served at the perfect temperature—ideal for a relaxed night out. If you prefer something colder or with a kick, the drink menu also features a wide array of ice-cold beers, refreshing mixed drinks, and a solid selection of wines by the glass or bottle.

Next came the Buffalo Chicken Dip, served hot with tortilla chips. Creamy, tangy, with just the right amount of kick—this dish is a must-try. It’s one of those apps you can’t stop dipping into, and it’s perfect for sharing over a conversation.

But the star of the meal? The Southwest Chicken Salad. Loaded with black beans, ripe avocado, juicy tomato, crisp romaine, cotija cheese, and tossed in a zesty spicy ranch dressing, this salad was shockingly good. It’s hearty enough to be a meal on its own but light enough to keep you feeling sharp if you’re staying out for a while.

From what we saw (and smelled) around the room, there’s no shortage of other mouthwatering options. The menu spans everything from burgers and sandwiches to nachos, quesadillas, and crowd-pleasing share plates. No matter what you’re in the mood for—something cheesy, spicy, meaty, or light—The Bar has something to satisfy that craving.

Slots, Sports & Good Times

One of the most popular features of The Bar is its gaming. If you’re feeling lucky, you’ll find a full range of video poker, slots, and keno machines that are built right into the bar seating—perfect for sipping and spinning.

The vibe remains relaxed and friendly, whether you’re a seasoned local or just in for the night. And unlike a busy Strip casino, you won’t have to fight for a seat or wait for service. It’s all right there—great food, cold drinks, and a chance to hit a jackpot.

Seven Locations, Same Great Energy

With seven locations across the Las Vegas valley, including spots in Summerlin, Henderson, and the northwest, The Bar has carved out a niche as the go-to neighborhood tavern with a little something extra.

Every location is open 24/7, so whether you’re winding down from a long shift, meeting friends for a late-night catch-up, or looking for an early brunch cocktail, the doors are always open.

What’s more, The Bar now offers online ordering, so your favorites are just a click away. Whether you’re picking up on the way home or having something delivered during game night at home, you can enjoy their elevated pub food without leaving the couch.

The Bottom Line: A True Local Gem

In a city filled with over-the-top options, The Bar @ Center Pointe stands out for its balance of quality, comfort, and convenience. It’s the kind of place where you’ll run into neighbors, make new friends, and feel completely at ease—while still enjoying high-end drinks, surprisingly delicious food, and the thrill of gaming.

Whether you’re stopping by after work, planning a casual date night, or just want a change from your usual dinner rotation, The Bar is more than just a place to grab a drink—it’s a local experience that delivers every time.

Pro Tip: Don’t leave without trying their nachos or one of their juicy burgers. Pair it with a cold beer or craft cocktail and settle in—you’re going to want to stay awhile.
