Perfect for college students and renters who love a bit of character, The Strip is a Tuscaloosa entertainment district that’s been entertaining residents of the city and Alabama for decades. Just east of the city center, The Strip holds a number of popular bars and restaurants in the span of less than half a mile. The Houndstooth, Rounders, and Buffalo Phil’s are just a few of the standout spots in this buzzing locale.
There’s shopping too. Grocery stores and vintage shops all neighbor the popular restaurants on University Blvd., making running errands an easy task.
As you move off of University Blvd. and back into the residential areas of The Strip you’ll find charming Craftsman homes and bungalows on elevated lots. The area neighbors the Crimson Tide’s stadium and is just a few minutes’ walk away from Queen City Park and the riverfront.
