Saddle up for an unforgettable Western-themed nightlife experience at The Dirty Bourbon Dance Hall & Saloon in Albuquerque. With the only mechanical bull in town and a 1,300-square-foot dance floor, you can two-step to live music or test your skills on the bull. If you do not like dancing, you can enjoy a pool or shuffleboard game. The bar has two massive 53-foot main bars, and the staff wears old-fashioned costumes that add to the traditional Western atmosphere. The nightly drink specials and live bands will keep you entertained while you soak up The Dirty Bourbon's unique ambiance.
