4 Best Dive Bars near Little Rock

“Fun atmosphere, wonderful food & drinks, awesome staff, great live music!“

“First off, I love everything about this place. Food, atmosphere, and people. Have made great friends, including the staff. Folks from all over the world stop by, and there are great opportunities to meet interesting people. The regulars are friendly and enjoy chatting with first-timers. If people watching is your thing, this is the place to be.

The happy hour crowd and the late nite crowd are different. If you came to late night it wasn’t your thing, then come early. I bet it’ll change your mind.

With that said, I wanted to address some of the negative reviews.

First, it’s one of the few latenight joints in town. Technically, I believe they’re required by law to be a club. That’s what you’re paying for.

Second, they have to cover the live bands, so there is often a charge on the weekends. That’s just how it works. But you’re gonna get your money’s worth because they have great music.

Third, police presence is required by law for ALL late night establishments open after 2AM. It’s not just a MT thing. Plus, the clubs pay for it, not the city. Take the time to get to know the officers. They’re regulars too!

Fourth, it is a smoking establishment, but it’s surprisingly well ventilated. I have several nonsmoking friends whom I’ve never heard complain.

Finally, it gets very busy, especially after the other bars close. The staff work their butts off. Treat them with respect and they’ll do the same for you. Tip appropriately (and generously if you are able), and they WILL notice.

This place is an experience. It’s one of the most celebrated dive bars in the South.They have a truly unique trivia format on Tuesdays, and Bottle Toss on Thursdays is something everyone should try at least once.

Put those good vibes out there and you will get them back with interest. Don’t listen to the haters.

P.S. Cassie is the best. That’s not an opinion, it’s a fact. The other guys and gals are pretty OK too.“

“My husband and I ate an early dinner here today. First timers. The food was so good. It felt like home. I had the Wednesday special, Chicken Spaghetti. Cheesy deliciousness. Husband had Chicken Fried Steak. He’s pretty picky about his chicken Fried Steak. He loved it. Highly recommend the Peach Cobbler. The black owned family restaurant is a new (8 months) North Little Rock treasure! Friendly folks. Please give them a try. You’ll love it!“

“I know it was a Wednesday so it might have been a lot quieter than usual, but omg I loved this place. It was my first time coming in. The atmosphere was great and I loveddd the bartender, he was so respectful and kind. I had some coronas and like three bloody marys. All of them were great.“
