About Duke's

Tallahassee's country bar.

A new wood floor went down this spring, under a pink bull rider mural and a stage full of lights. On it: line dancers, a mechanical bull, and a crowd that stays until the lights come up.

Come for the free lesson if you've never danced a step. Come back Saturday when it turns into a club at midnight. Always packed. Always a party.

Our story

Meet Duke and Dottie.

Dottie is our owner's mother, a Southern belle from Georgia. Duke is our mechanical bull. That's Dottie on the back wall, the red-haired cowgirl riding the blue bull, keeping an eye on the floor below her.

We opened the doors on St. Patrick's Day weekend in 2023, one of three bars at 1122 Thomasville Road with Fire Betty's and Finnegan's Wake. Since then we've thrown the official afterparty for the PBR rodeo's stop in town and helped put on the Big Bend Rodeo.

This spring y'all asked for a bigger, better floor, so we laid a new one. The lessons are still free, and the party still runs until 2.
