Thunder Bay is a small city, and has a quite diverse bar scene. The city is blessed with TWO downtowns, therefore with two sets of after-work bars. And the city has two colleges and universities, in between the two downtowns.

The Port Arthur (Downtown North) area is getting a lot of new development, with the recently opened Casino and all. There are also a number of nice restaurants around Algoma & Bay, creating a critical mass of places to go eat and then to go out. Places like On Deck are popular here.

The Fort William (Downtown South) is where all the government employees are clustered. City Hall is downtown, and across the street is the City Hall Annex (in Victoriaville) and some just west of there in the Ontario Government building. This area has a lot of "lunch" restaurants and after-work bars. Places like Armani's, the Inntowner, and Players are popular in this part of town, with Scuttlebutt's nearby on Arthur.

In the geographic center of the city are Confederation College and Lakehead University, which create a large number of younger drinkers for the bars along Memorial The fact that the Port Arthur Stadium and the Community Auditorium are right there increases the potential business for bars in this area.
