Bar Nohm
Downtown, Salt Lake City
Bar in Salt Lake City, United States
Why go
Bar Nohm is useful for casual Salt Lake City drinks, especially when the group wants flexibility over a formal dining plan. Go early for a date or conversation; use the later Friday and Saturday hours for a more social group stop. Skip it if you need published pricing, a confirmed food focus, or a heavily structured reservation experience.
About Bar Nohm
Bar Nohm is a Salt Lake City venue with verified evening hours Tuesday through Sunday and a smart casual dress code. It is closed Monday, open 5–11 PM Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday, open 5 PM–12 AM on Friday and Saturday. Beyond those basics, the available verified details are limited, so plan around the confirmed schedule rather than assuming a specific menu, price point, reservation setup, seating format, or drinks program.
A better fit for simple evening planning than detail-heavy bookings
The clearest reason to consider Bar Nohm is its direct evening availability. It can fit a Tuesday-through-Sunday night plan in Salt Lake City, with later listed closing times on Friday and Saturday. If your group needs specific information about seating, reservations, menu structure, pricing, or service style, confirm directly before committing the night.
For a date or small meet-up, the most grounded planning advice is to use the listed hours and smart casual dress code as your guide. Earlier evening timing may suit people who want a simpler start to the night, while Friday and Saturday offer the latest verified closing time. Anything more specific about atmosphere, crowd, or format should be checked with the venue.
What to expect before committing the night
There is not enough verified detail here to judge a specific food program, signature drink, price point, chef-led identity, or reservation process. That matters. Bookers who need a known menu, published pricing, or a clearly described dining format should choose somewhere with more disclosed structure. Readers comparing wider options can use our full Salt Lake City bars guide for a broader shortlist, then cross-check dining in our full Salt Lake City restaurants guide if food is the priority.
The practical verdict: use Bar Nohm only on the facts that are confirmed. It is closed Monday, open evenings Tuesday through Sunday, runs until 12 AM on Friday and Saturday, lists smart casual dress. That schedule makes it an evening option, not a lunch or all-day plan.
The take
The Take
The Vibe
Bar Nohm reads like a contemporary city bar that places its drinks program at the center of the experience. The room itself is restrained — low light, deliberate design choices and attentive staff create a setting that feels polished and intentional. Instead of background televisions or chaotic noise, you hear the ritual sounds of serious bartending: ice against metal, music curated to support conversation. The result is a sophisticated, elegant atmosphere that allows the wine and spirits list to do most of the talking, signaling Salt Lake City’s move toward more design-forward, editorial drinking rooms.
Best For
This is an evening-focused spot that suits weekday outings and evenings out in Central 9th. Its location and tone make it a natural stop for after-work drinks from nearby offices, a quiet prelude to a date, or a focused solo visit when you want to read a menu closely. Because the program centers on curated wine and spirits, groups that appreciate a thoughtful beverage list also find it rewarding, but the overall energy leans toward contained, intentional gatherings rather than loud, rambunctious nights.
Ordering Tips
Approach the menu as the central document: the bar treats its selections as an argument, so take time to read what’s offered by the glass and the bottle. Rely on staff curation — the description frames servers and bartenders as supporting evidence for the program — and ask for their point-of-view picks if you want to lean into the bar’s intentions. If you’re coming after work or on a quieter evening, prioritize by-the-glass options or curated pours that showcase the bar’s wine and spirits selection rather than expecting heavy, flashy cocktails.

How It Compares
Choose Bar Nohm when the priority is an easy Salt Lake City bar plan with evening hours and low apparent booking friction. Water Witch is the sharper cross-shop if the group is specifically chasing a cocktail-bar feel, while Scion Cider Bar is the clearer pick when cider is the point of the night rather than a general bar stop.
For ambiance, The Pearl should be on the list for readers who want a more defined night-out identity. Bar Nohm is the more flexible choice when the plan may shift, especially for groups that do not want to overbuild the evening around a single reservation.
If food is the deciding factor, compare against Vertical Diner or Ramen Ichizu Bar instead. Those are better fits when the meal comes first and drinks are secondary; Bar Nohm makes more sense when drinks and location convenience are leading the decision.
