Since the patch, my sims have been unable to purchase drinks or food from the Late Night professional bars. I have two professional bars placed in the neighborhood that I was testing. One is at a Local Watering Hole and one is placed in a UL Java Lounge. In both cases if they tried to buy anything they "jumped" out of the action. Any NPCs who tried to use the bar jumped as well. The mixologists were wandering about rather than tending the bar.
Also, on a side note, I'm experiencing the dark/black sensor patch as well. I mainly wanted to report the issue with the bars, though. Thanks for your time.
UPDATE: Deleting the bars and then replacing them seems to have fixed this issue for me.
