Dallas' most hilariously-awesome theme bar is, without a doubt, Double Wide. True to its name, the interior of the bar is set up like the inside of a very seedy double-wide trailer. Bad paintings of nude women from the 70s and weird stuffed creatures line the wood panel walls. The patio floor is made of green Astro-turf, the patio chairs are toilets, and the small concert venue showcases some of the best local and national rock bands.

2010 | Best Rock Bar

To call the Double Wide a "rock bar" is a bit of a slight. It's much more than a bar. Sure, it has a bar, but right across the patio from that home base, the establishment also boasts a bona fide concert room with a capacity of 75 (and there's... More >
2009 | Best Rock Bar

Sure, there's the live music room across the patio. That helps. But the Double Wide wins points because you don't have to hit the music room—or pay that room's separate cover charge—to enjoy a night of fine music and good friends. Regularly... More >

I went here once to hear a friend's band play and we had so much fun! I loved how we could drift from inside to outside - it was a great way to meet new people. Fun place.

A punk, rockabilly, local music haven on one side, with a kitschy redneck couture bar on the other side.

As the name implies, Double Wide is nothing if not lowbrow. I've seen some really good local punk bands there (Hellions, Free to Kill Again, Boozers), and used to hit it up all the time after work.
