The locals know where the fun is!!
Many of the hotels around the city also have nightclubs that make

smaller lounges and quaint pubs that are great for having a few drinks before retiring
for the night. Night time in Sault Ste Marie is the best time. Discover it for yourself. You
won't be disappointed!
What does make the Sault unusual for its nightlife is its location
straddling the Canada-US border. This means that younger (under 21 years old) Americans head
north to take advantage of the Ontario drinking age of 19. There are some
very nicely done up drinking establishments (not to mention a few casinos) south of the border,
which atract the "older" (ie., over 21) crowd from Canada. Many also head down to avoid
the crowds from all those young Americans crowing the Canadian bars.
NOTE: There's also a shuttle bus that takes passengers over the international
Bridge for $1 (Canadian or American). It makes multiple stops on both sides,
and is a good way to not drink and drive, and it's cheaper than the bridge toll.
The bridge bus stops at 10 p.m. and on Saturdays it stops at 5 p.m. (while it doesn't take people to the
bars, you can get on/off nearby several of them).
