I know on supervised probation, people are not supposed to be in bars, etc., does this hold true for those on unsupervised probation?

Supervised probation does not make going into bars a restriction, unless there is some connection to the crime committed. The same is true for unsupervised probation. After a couple of DUI convictions, there is often a restriction of going into a place where the primary business is the sale of alcohol. That won't preclude going into a TGIFridays. If you get a felony DUI, it will absolutly be a term of supervised probation. So it depends.

From my experience, you can be in a place that serves alcohol as long as it's not specifically a condition of your probation (supervised or unsupervised).

Most people who get a condition like that either have had more than a few DUIs or have multiple assault convictions where alcohol played a role in every assault.

I'd look at your sentencing order and the rules/regulations of probation sheet (if you got one - everyone got one of these where I worked, even if it was administrative {aka non-sup} probation).

In North Carolina - Unsupervised probation just broadly means you obey the laws and you pay your fines. So you will not have to follow up with a probation officer regularly, etc UNLESS otherwise ordered by the courts.
It is a designed for low-risk defendants.You may be granted specific conditions in the order (i.e. counseling, community restitution, financial obligations, etc. )
So without knowing the specific orders and what state you live in it's hard to tell. There's just a draft of normal unsupervised probation.

Probation is never supervised strictly speaking in the normal sense of the word. Those on probation are often required to check in with a police station/parole board etc regularly to show that they haven't fled the jurisidiction. They must also not travel overseas or interstate without prior approval. The main condition of probation is that they abide by all laws - if they are caught comitting another offence, then they will have to serve the rest of their sentence as well as perhaps additional time for the new offence.

Some people on probation have additional conditions. For instance, as another poster said, if someone has repeated DUI convictions they may not be able to purchase/drink alcohol or enter licensed premises. Or a paedophile may not be able to live within 100meters of a school.
