En 1906, le jeune Richard Miller est sélectionné pour prononcer le discours d'entrée au lycée. Idéaliste, il tente d'y glisser quelques idées anticapitalistes, mais c'est compter sans son père, Nat, qui l'en empêche rudement. Plus tard, lors de la fête nationale, le 4 juillet, Richard s'éprend de Muriel McComber. Il lui écrit des lettres d'amour enflammées, qui ne laissent indifférents ni Muriel, ni, hélas, son père, lorsqu'il les découvre. Celui-ci oblige les jeunes gens à se séparer. Richard se saoule alors en compagnie d'une inconnue avant de trouver refuge chez son oncle Sid, un alcoolique invétéré, qui lui prodigue les conseils que lui inspira son expérience de la vie...

Wonder Bar is set in a Parisian nightclub, with the stars playing the ‘regulars’ at the club. The movie revolves around two main story points, a romance and a more serious conflict with death, and several minor plots. All of the stories are enlivened from time to time by extravagant musical numbers. The more serious story revolves around Captain Von Ferring (Robert Barrat), a German military officer. Ferring has gambled on the stock market and lost, now broke after dozens of failed investments, he is at the Wonder Bar to try and pull a one night stand before killing himself the following day. Al Wonder (Al Jolson) knows about Ferring's plan.

Alick Wylie (David Torrence) and his sons David (Donald Crisp) and James (Dudley Digges) are greatly concerned about Alick's daughter Maggie (Helen Hayes), who has been jilted by a minister. She is less than heartbroken, but they fear for her marital prospects at the age of 27. When they catch poor but ambitious 21-year-old John Shand (Brian Ahern) breaking into their house late at night to use their library, they seize the opportunity. Impressed by his initiative, they offer him £300 to finance his studies provided that he give Maggie the option of marrying him after five years. After some thought, he agrees. The Wylies insist he sign a formal contract.
