Pearl is a neighborhood bar and live music venue located in a 108 year old building in downtown Dallas, TX. We present primarily jazz and blues - local, regional and national acts. We also occasionally have zydeco, singer-songwriters, americana, reggae, latin, tribute bands and world music. We provide free wireless internet access for our customers. We offer a happy hour every Tuesday through Friday from 11am to 7pm. No one under 21 years of age allowed after 9pm. We have been voted "Best Blues Bar" by the Dallas Observer for the last two years, and have made the "Best of" in several categories on Citysearch every year since we opened.
We are open from 11am-12am Tuesday through Thursday, 11am-2am on Fridays, and 7pm-2am on Saturdays. (Sundays and Mondays are available for private events).
Food - We have cold sub sandwiches made fresh when ordered, chips and salsa, and fruit and cheese trays (seasonal fruit, 2 gourmet cheeses, bread).
