About this business

The Local, located in Poncey-Highlands, is your quintessential neighborhood dive. This non-smoking bar has been a gathering spot for the community for years. Enjoy a chilled pint or premium spirits out on their patio, or the occasional karaoke nights indoors. Smoked wings, pulled pork sandwich and cheese pretzel are some of the delicious fare on offer. Great prices, hands-on service and a laid-back vibe make it a local favorite.

A classic neighborhood hangout – The Local is friendly, atmospheric and inviting --everything a great neighborhood bar should be. Its dark wooden interior sets a great low-key tone for dates or just hanging out with friends. A newly opened expansion alleviates crowding on Wednesday and weekend nights, and the front patio is a good spot on breezy evenings.
