Pour Judgement is hands down my all-time favorite spot when I'm going out! The menu alone is amazing--pages and pages of different shots to choose from, so there's always something new to try. Every shot I've had tastes incredible and doesn't even feel like you're drinking liquor, which is dangerous in the best way They're so smooth and fun, and you can really tell they put thought into their drinks. The whole vibe is such a good time--great energy, great drinks, and just an overall fun place to be with friends. If you're looking for a place to have fun and try unique shots, this is it. I'll never get tired of coming here! read more

Absolutely love getting some shots here. The nerd garnish is fantastic and a lesser known fact is any shot can be upgraded to a full drink for a few dollars. Personally I think keeping them as shots is better flavor wise, but if you want a strong drink you can't go wrong. They have drinks such as butter beer too! Their menu is huge and a lot of fun to look through and debate on what you want to try. The staff is nice enough and the bar/seating areas are nice. As it gets later it turns more into standing room but it is one of my personal favorites. read more

If you're a shot lover like me, you have to come here! There are so many different and fun shots to choose from. The menu is HUGE! We got two, the Nerd Rope and Blueberry Muffins. They were both delicious and our bartender whipped them up super fast. I was expecting it to take a bit of time since they are crafted shots, but he was very efficient. If you're walking around downtown St. Pete, you have to hop in here for a couple of shots! read more

A shots bar I always end up bringing everyone to whenever I'm going out in Downtown St. Pete. Although it is super crowded and hard to order at the bar, I absolutely love their menu. They have unique flavors of over 50+ shots, ranging from Nerds and Starbust to Butterbeer and Margarita-adjacent flavors. The shots are also sometimes beautifully decorated depending on what flavor you get. I like that their menu is categorized by what type of alcohol is in each shot, making it easier to narrow down on their huge menu. read more

Reminds me of shots in orlando. Love this place! It's so easy to overindulge in the never ending list of shots they offer! I came for pride,and they always have specials for different events and occasions! I always stop here anytime I'm in st pete! Service can def be slower depending on day and time, but friendly staff. Ambiance is lively, loud, and can be overcrowded at times also. However, still a nice spot to stop at for a variety of shots at a decent price. read more

My friend left her phone and wallet here, the staff held onto it and was even charging it when we came back to find them hours later! Love the variety of shots and bartenders enjoy giving recommendations, nice big space with decent amount of seating even during peak. read more

I didn't stay long, but I stopped by here on a Thursday night to try their $3 White Gummy-bear shot. It was a 10/10 shot for me, but not super effective if ya know what I mean. Service was alright, but they were packed since it was a Thursday so alright is good! The two bartenders were women when I went, so that's always a plus for me personally! DJ played great music, and the vibe inside was chill and fun. Ages ranged from 21-50 I'd say. read more

Was in the mood for a tasty libation and stopped by Pour Judgement Bar. Nice place to enjoy a good drink with friend. Bar staff was very attentive and good pour when ordering a well drink. Great time and reasonable prices. Give them a try when you're in the area. read more

Bartender was great! He suggested things and was quick with service. Bar was busy for a Thursday evening and they allow dogs! I would def come back to drink here again. My favorite part of the bar was the lights behind their bar. Bar does have 2 dart boards. read more

We LOVE this place! It's a must stop at every night out in Downtown St Pete! All of the bartenders are great and the security too is top notch. Our favorite has to be Jade, she is our girl!!! and gets our favorite shots and cocktails perfect every time! We love how sweet and accommodating she is toward my Deaf community in the area that comes out and parties with us. I also love when they decorate for events like Christmas, Pride, Halloween. They're just so fun and awesome! read more

Must visit for a unique and fun experience! Chloe and Cameron are great bartending duo that serve up unique shots and cocktails! Great vibes here a must pop by in the area! read more

Jade is a fantastic bartender! When we walk in, she knows our drink order. But she can change it up and create anything you are in the mood for. The atmosphere is "industrial hipster with a touch of Sinatra" sports bar! If you are in town, stop by, get a couple shots to start your night, come back later, to get some booster shots, and end the night with an old fashioned night cap. For you youngins, that's a classic cocktail. read more

Pour Judgement - Apple mule and honey dew you - Bars Near Me - St. Petersburg, Florida

Very extensive shot list. Me and a group of friends went for happy hour. Drinks are 2 for 1 during this time and they give you chip to turn in for your 2nd drink. Nice method of operation however, I noticed that when we bought rounds everyone did not get their 2nd chip. There was only one bar tender at the time so service was understandably a little slower but not to the point of annoyance. The bar tender was nice enough. He did not extend himself to my group but he did his job. They do not sell food but we were told you can bring in food if you like. We grabbed some Oyster Rockefeller's for next door and ate them at our table with no issues. read more

I absolutely love the immense menu in this place, and the bartenders are all so kind. It can get busy, but it's always a good time. This is the spot I always recommend when people tell me they are traveling to the St-Pete/Tampa Bay Area. read more

My boyfriend and I were visiting downtown at Petersburg Florida for the first time. We stopped in at pour judgement while bar hopping but found ourselves getting comfortable here. The owners were on site and very friendly and welcoming. The bartender was helpful with guiding us through the huge drink menu and making cocktails based on our drink preference. We visited on a Tuesday afternoon and the music choice was alternative from early 2000s which we both enjoyed. They had about 8-10 flatscreen with sports and movies. They have high tops sit 4 people comfortably but you can possibly add a seat at the end to make it 5. We will be returning next time we are in town . read more

This place is so fun complete with so many options for shots and cocktails. There is a passport aspect to introducing you to every shot available; though that's in the works it wasn't available today. There is all you can drink Sunday for $20 excludes shot and craft cocktails so need to be creative. They do have a panini machine for sandwiches. Came in for post Sunday brunch and specials. This place fills up fast greet venue for socializing. Lots of attractive people too! Just wish they would set up a online cash out your tab. It took way too long to try to leave after it filled up w only 2 people working. read more

Great friendly bartenders! Large variety of shots Wonderful stop on central, plus BOGO happy hour. read more

So we sat at the bar where each bartender walked past us like we weren't there. I mean straight up ignored us. Carefully washed shot glasses right in front of us, didn't look up when we're called out "excuse me" to get his attention. The one who keeps his hair in a bun. Then after one of us shouted excuse me over the music he comes over and says "did you just yell at me I don't like that" they once we responded saying we didn't like being ignore he said "if you're going to have an attitude I'm not going to serve you" Don't go here. Especially if you're black. They are clearly racist here. I know of a few other black people who have been here and made the same complaint! read more

Justin is awesome! Fav bartender in St. Pete. The rest of the staff is amazing too and this is my go-to after-work drinking hole.

Great spot. Hot girls all over the place, divey. Affordable, from what I remember lol

Bartenders are rude and not very attentive. Could not tell you if drinks were good as they don't serve you! Would not go back.

Really impressive shot list. I think there is something like 250 or so craft shots listed in their shot book. Comfortable atmosphere and really engaging and knowledgeable bartenders. The shots are more like mini cocktails. Instead of shooting them, i just sipped. It was a great way to really appreciate the effort put into it. Definitely go and give it a try. read more

Love the concept here, a craft shot bar. They are such a big selection of flavors to try! And they can make any shot into a full drink also. I tried the nerds rope, which comes with the crushed candy on the rim and I also had the dreamsicle which has whipped cream on top. Both were very yummy! Had them as drinks, not shots and they were $7 each. Good price point. Would come here again to try many of the other yummy sounding drinks! read more

I always have so much fun here! I want to try all the shots on the menu but that'll take a while! Nerds rope is one of my favorites! I've been here a few times and everyone I've met here has been amazing! I constantly tell everyone coming to visit they need to go here! They're also cool with you bringing in food which is good! read more

In all honesty, the shots are really creative here; they have ones with Swedish fish called finding Nemo that I love, but what I love the most every time coming here is my interactions and utmost courtesy that the bouncer Mykel has shown me, and he's the face of the place; so to be welcomed as soon as I walk in makes it such a warm atmosphere and vibe! Come through because the vibes are immaculate! Hands down the best bouncer in St Pete read more

Really "poor". And to be clear 12/30/22 at 4:45pm. The place had some folks in it. A few employees I recognized from One Night Stand and obviously the rest are friends of the bartender. Couldn't buy a drink there if our life depended on it. The bartender got himself a drink right in front of us. Never acknowledged we were there, or hang on... just couldn't buy a drink. Good business model ...8-10 count pours for the friends and family of the bartender and don't sell drinks to anyone off the street. Had a lot of drinks here... won't be back. read more

Jade was our bartender. It's was st. Patty's day so it was obviously crowded and chaotic. But she was so attentive and personable, the sweetest soul. I will definitely be back. And you should 100% come read more

My fiancé and I visited St. Pete for a week and we came to Pour Judgement three separate times. It's right on the popular Central Ave strip, nestled between a diverse combination of restaurants and clubby bars. The ambiance itself is similar to most bars in the area. However, Pour Judgement is known primarily for being a "shot bar." That is, they offer a wide range of creative and delicious shots. Their menu book is neatly arranged on the bar, offering not only craft cocktails, wine, and beer. But, also a large list of shots they offer. They categorize them nicely in their menu. First, there's a list of top 100 shots. These include delicious offerings like the Nerds Rope, which tastes like those little yummy candies and is adorned around the rim of the glass with crushed Nerds candies. The menu also has categories for shots by the liquor, including their own creative craft shots as well as "traditional" shot offerings. They even have seasonal special shots like the Cookies and Cream and Pumpkin Pie shots. Their happy hour offers BoGo well cocktails (not including craft cocktails), beer, and wine. Overall, if you're visiting St. Pete or just live in the area and are looking for a unique place that offers delicious and fun remixes on the same old alcoholic beverages, it would be in your "good judgement" to visit Pour Judgement! read more

Horrible don't go here. The bartenders may have been the worst I've ever had. Good luc

I literally watched three bartenders bypass a couple that was waiting from the time I came in to the time I told them they should not patronize this bar (30 minutes) due to the disrespect they showed them. I could not believe it at all and when I asked why they wasn't helping this couple, the bartender literally said it's because they didn't start a tab, like wtf does that matter, they clearly wanted more drinks bimboe. Rude, mean and unprofessional and I will never spend a dime there! read more

Last night my friends and I were racially profiled at Pour Judgement (The shot bar downtown) Every Friday after our game we go out for a drink. Each time we go, it's a bout 8 of us buying a round each. The bartenders always leave with a good tip from our group. Last night we didn't think it would be any different. One of my friends paid for her round on her card but was going to leave cash for a tip. The bartender saw the receipt and stated that we needed to reevaluate the receipt because he does not work for free! He even clapped his hands at us. ****I want to add ,I didn't see him say anything about a tip to anyone else that night. After his comment, The bartender deliberately started to ignore us! When I talked to the manager Mellisa Powell she tried to justify his actions by saying that her bartenders has gone through physical abuse and there was a tip issue by other customers in the past and we must understand his frustration. Overall , even if the staff had problems in the past with other customers, this is no way to address anyone especially about the customers money and how/when they choose to leave a tip. The establishment did not to try to correct the issue, but instead we were singled out. It's sad because we literally can't go anywhere in St.Pete without being looked at sideways and being disrespected. read more

I don't know where to even start, so here it goes. I have heard from several of friends that this place was racist and to not support it. However, coming from the hospitality industry and hearing from a friend of mine that the owner was in the industry and built this business, I wanted to support. When I tell you I clearly used poor judgment. The staff is completely Racist! 7.4.21 sat. At the bar for 30 minutes gentleman in grey shirt served everyone before serving us and others sitting at bar prior to serving us. I could not believe it. He would not even make eye contact and when he did and I tried to get his attention he act as if I didn't exist and proceeded to help new patrons again. If you you are a African American you will not only be poorly judged, you will also not receive a pour to being with. Not recommend for people of color. read more

Great drinks and atmosphere. Jason W the bartender is awesome. Prepare for a good time and experience.

if i could give them a 0 i would. theyre very racist. we had a big group of people and we are all white except for 2 of us. the 2 black people in our group were heavily questioned at the door even though they are the oldest in the group. they embarrassed our black friends and made them cry. i will never be coming back to this establishment. read more

A bartender named "JUSTIN" I believe gave me and my friends a very unpleasant visit. Getting very rude and vulgar the more we ordered from him. Also had the nerve to ask why we kept ordering from him and not the other bartender who had her own little group she was working on. It was honestly sad and uncomfortable being a fellow bartender, to watch him and how he works his crowd. I hope he was just having a bad night, but we all agreed we will not be going back the yummy drinks were not worth that experience. read more

They really do have "Poor Judgement".... My friends and I had gone to the bar nextdoor, Saigon Blonde, and the messed up security guard accused me and my friends of having fake ID's just because they were out of state. We asked them to verify with an ID scanner and somehow none of these bars around here have one??? Not sure how you can accuse an ID of being fake if you cant even prove it... Either way, this bar had originally allowed us in and verified our ID's earlier in the night. After they heard the nextdoor bar accuse us of having fake ID's, they refused to let us in. Again, NOBODY has a scanner to check if the ID is even REAL?! Absolutely bogus and unprofessional. We will be going back with the police to prove that our ID's are real and that your security is absolutely horrible. Especially after already letting us in?? That's embarrassing for your business. Never going back and I would never recommend. read more
