Red Juuuuuuuugggggggg!!! So if you are looking to do some jager bombs, and drink some beer where the tap prob hasn't been cleaned in years and the glycol system might be non-existant... check this joint out. Prime thots and frat bros, pure macro americana beers and your shoes will prob stick to the floor. But hey, if you wanna re-live your college days, this the place to be! It's really not even as bad as I am describing either LOL read more

One of many Red Jug locations. Fun Pub that has certain nights where there's free food. You can also buy a jug here for ~$40 which lasts you a year. There's an entire system with white and black straps. Just ask and the bartender will explain it to you. This is a great bar for people that don't like annoying freshmen. They are strict on IDs so it's 21 and over only. Additionally, their apparel are a real hit on the college campuses around Oneonta. Go in and do a t-shirt challenge 10 beers of your choice or 4 vodka lemonades and you'll get a shirt and beer glass. (You can also just buy the shirts/hats, but it's a better deal to do the challenge) $5 off on Saturdays to do a t-shirt challenge. On birthdays, the Jugs gives you devil horns, a free mixed drink, and a free shot! Great place to be. You can also pay for songs and there's a pool table. My favorites from here is the blue raspberry vodka lemonade and their Long Island iced tea is the best out of all the bars on main street! Sunday nights are super laid back. There's always a lot of deals happening at the Jug. read more

Red Jug Pub - Thanks for the free shirt! Look out for nights with giveaways! Love the Jug!! - Pubs Near Me - Oneonta, New York

See all

I've been coming in this place consistently and you would think this bar tenders would make it a point to try and get to know my drink. I think good customer service is part of that especially for those that come in on a regular basis. This business does not provide great service at all. I would not recommend this business for any sort of locals. As someone who works locally, this is disappointing as I see workers who come into my place of business and expect the same treatment. read more

One of my favorite bars in Oneonta. I love doing t-shirts here and the casual vibe. It's a great place to go any night of the week. Great service, cheap prices, and awesome crowd. Can't beat it. read more

Friday nights. As an older person, I experienced rude behavior from the female bartender and discrimination. The young people feel in The Red Jug Pub the bar is just for them. Older person beware in entering the Red Jug Pub. Oneonta NY. read more

Typical college town bar. Lots of college kids but sometimes see locals there too. They check IDs at the entrance and seem pretty strict about it. Service is okay. If you do the T-shirt challenge with the lemonade drinks you also get to keep a glass, but with the beer you only get the T-shirt. Don't bother using the juke box.. I tried it and wasted a $1. Stayed at the bar for over an hour and never heard my song play. You can get the app and it might work, but you have to purchase a certain about of credits and I just wanted to play 1 song. Bathrooms are pretty nasty. read more

Red Jug Pub - a cold drink on a bar - Pubs Near Me - Oneonta, New York

So I'm confused to why we could not be in the jug because we brought a D.D to secure our safety and we were turned down and told that our friend couldn't be with us cause he's 20! Do they prefer us to drive drunk read more

Me and a few friends went out last night to celebrate my 21st birthday in Oneonta. Going to school here you'll always hear about how the jug is the best bar around and a coming of age sort of thing when you're 21. The experience I had was not the same. Went to the jug for around an hour and a half and it was nearly impossible to order something from the bar. Decided to go find a bar that was a little more friendly and welcoming, but there were none that were open. We decided at 1:15 we would cut our losses and go back to the jug for the last hour it was open. As soon as I opened the door, I was screamed at to "get the f out". Don't know what happened to human decency in Oneonta but someone should definitely bring it back read more

It is what it is. Their beer prices vary dramatically depending on the day of the week and the time of day. They do have a great beer selection for the area. The space is relatively narrow and during peak times it can get claustrophobic. read more

I totally fell in love with this place. Excellent craft beer on tap at ridiculously affordable prices ("What? How much was that round?"). This is a college bar? I'm not sticking to the floor. It's clean, neat, well lit, it actually smells good in here. WTH? Juke box is good, but not as good as the Black Oak. Great staff, fun patrons. read more

Rudest bartenders, lame service & overall a hot mess. Once upon a time they were dope but now they are just egotistical and takes forever to get their attention to get a drink. Go to Shooters or the Black Oak around the corner! There is nothing special about this place anymore. read more

Man I can't believe this place isn't rated higher... Best bar in Oneonta to start off your night. If you're looking for a college bar with a relaxed atmosphere to hangout with friends, play pool or darts, and have a few drinks - this is it. read more

Red Jug Pub - Chillin' outside the Red Jug - Pubs Near Me - Oneonta, New York

This is my new favorite bar! Chelsea and Chelsea are the best bartenders in Oneonta. Can't wait to come back!

amazing. love it. great hot dogs. amazing vibes. amazing staff. love it great. do a shirt.

Out of all the bars in town, this is the only one I've been able to hang out for more than an hour and enjoy myself. It's cleaner than the other bars in town and it has much better lighting too. Week nights are chill and laid back, and although the weekends get busy the staff is really on top of making sure everyone is taken care of and has a good time. The bartenders know what the specials are and always have a recommendation for what else to try on tap if they don't have your usual. Also, the fruit is way fresher than anywhere else in town. If you don't know what to try, go for one of their flavored lemonades! They're a sure-fire win. read more

Horrible. Kicked friends out because "they were too drunk" after two drinks" this place is horrible. Deserves no business and no customers. Rude as hell and doesn't cater to any customers coming in the bar. HORRIBLE wouldn't recommend to anyone. read more

What kind of bar won't listen to the customer ... Asked them to put World Cup sound on over jukebox ... Manager said no and gave attitude so I left and took half people in the bar with me that I brought read more

Pre 4pm a local dive bar with sticky floors. Post 9pm a college dive bar with sticky floors. In between, just go somewhere else.

This place is always packed with college students, which depending on how you feel can be awesome. A lot of the bartenders are students, so they're pretty chill and fun to talk to. It is definitely a good stop on your birthday, a free drink and cup and some horns to let everyone know who's gonna be the drunk idiot tonight. Music is off a juke box, so there is plenty of variety. There is a pool table and a dart board in the back of you get bored, but with all the people around, how could you be. read more

Packed wall to wall with people, very hard to move. It's definitely more of an Oneonta / Hartwick undergrad bar than a place for adults to enjoy. It took me about 20 minutes to get a drink each time I was able to force my way up to the bar and we all had to yell to hear one another. If I were 21 I would probably rate this higher and it seems like a popular spot for the younger crowd but definitely not for me! read more

Wow, came to watch a soccer match, great choice our bartender Stephanie was wonderful!!!! Very friendly, fresh lemon drinks ! Loved it! I'm coming back when ever she's working !!! read more

Management and the bar staff were too busy hanging out with people at the bar and drinking to bother helping me. The previous bartender - a 23 year old woman from Milford was extremely helpful until the manager took over the shift. I went from having a great time to wanting to leave as soon as I finished my beer. Bear in mind that this is coming from an understanding a Food and Beverage Director of a substantial local business. I couldn't be more disappointed. Thanks Red Jug for ruining my night with your management. read more

The Red Jug Pub is one of my favorite bars in Oneonta. First of all, it is super clean! The atmosphere is fantastic and I really felt at home when I was sitting at the bar with my family. Second, do they only hire gorgeous bartenders? They are always super friendly and extremely helpful. Looking for something sweet to drink? Try one of their Vodka Lemonades. Super refreshing! If you're more of a beer drinker, they have like..24 different beers on tap! Along with a great selection, they also have AMAZING deals. When we were there, it was happy hour so pints were $2 or $2.50..you just can't beat it! Really looking forward to our next trip to Oneonta so we can come back to the RJP! :) read more

Friendly staff, clean and 5 star drinks. They take their time to make their drinks and make sure they're good in a speedy manner!

So damn fun here! While you might wait a bit, is only because everyone comes here! Our bartender, Evelyn, was absolutely amazing!

Stopped here on a roadtrip back from the baseball HoF, and this place is awesome. Drink specials, friendly staff, nice layout. Two thumbs up. read more
