Rumors is a popular hangout mainly because of the wide variety of people it attracts. It is a casual, unassuming place where you can just be yourself. The jukebox is cranked up all night, and in addition to the very reasonably priced drinks, there's also pool and shuffleboard. Rumors consistently packs in quite an impressive crowd on the weekends, so get there early or be prepared to sandwich in to make your way to the bar, but the effort is definitely worth it. If you're looking for a laid-back experience on the nightlife scene, this is the place to get it.

The
R & R Bar is a great little hangout that features not only a great, attentive waitstaff but an always interesting cast of regulars.

Plus, there are well-placed pool tables and a good-sized patio that allow patrons to wander a bit without too much obstruction. Great music on the jukebox and great amenities make R & R a great place to spend your evening enjoying Amarillo's nightlife.

You would be missing out on true Texas-style nightlife if you didn't take the time to visit a real live honky tonk. As is the tradition in the Lone Star State, everything is bigger here, so if you want to two step, you should do it on the biggest dance floor in the Texas Panhandle. That expansive dancing area is found at Amarillo's
Midnight Rodeo. This is the place to hear all your favorite country songs, meet up with friends old and new, and marvel at the club that is quite literally 20,000 square feet of two-steppin' and long-neckin'!
