Meet Auburn’s new high-end simulated sports experience, Bunkers

SoulGrown Alabama

Bunkers, Auburn’s first-of-its-kind cocktail bar, restaurant, and indoor golf simulator, has just opened.

The concept was developed by Plainsmen Consulting, the team behind many of Alabama’s well-known establishments including Collins Bar, Cayo Coco, and Local Roots. The beverage menu, created by award-winning beverage director Josh Schaff, showcases unique spins on familiar cocktails like the Frozen Azalea, Bunkers Julep, and The Nitro Charged Espresso Martini.

“I am so proud to be able to have worked with such a great team bringing Bunkers to Auburn,” said Josh Schaff, beverage director of Plainsmen Consulting. “Bunkers is an innovative blend of exceptional craft cocktails, high-end golf experience and restaurant. We are so proud to bring this concept to downtown Auburn.”

The food menu focuses on classic gastropub dishes with an elevated twist such as Tachos, the Bunkers Burger, Shrimp Tacos, Thai Chili Wings, and more. Conveniently located near Auburn University and just a block from the famous Toomer’s Corner, the restaurant and bar will be open every day for lunch and dinner with brunch on Sundays.

Bunkers has eight semi-private simulator suites with comfortable seating that can be reserved for up to ten guests. The suites can be booked daily to experience the state-of-the-art immersive sports game simulators featuring golf, football, and more. They can also be reserved for game-day Saturdays, the Super Bowl, and other sporting events or pay-per-view watch parties.

“Our goal was to bring a completely new and exciting concept to Downtown Auburn,” said Dustin Spruill of Plainsmen Consulting. “We wanted to transform our guests into a space that was completely new without being unfamiliar. We are extremely proud of what we have delivered and could not have done this without our incredible team.”

The hours of operation are Sunday to Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Fridays and Saturdays, 11 a.m. to 1 a.m.
