I went here alone years ago to catch a show. The band was two hours late but it was fine because the bartender was lovely and she made the yummiest AMF I've ever had. I ate some cup ramen and had a blast. The other patrons were entertaining too haha While the place is listed as a dive bar, the interior was very neat and clean (yes, even the bathrooms!!). I would love to swing by again someday.

One of the Diviest dive bars that you could ever dive into. A Historical landmark of Tempe that has had many of amazing artists, musicians & patrons visit. The Owner Chuck is a phenomenal person just like his establishment. It's the Arizona CBGB's if you will. Seen more bands than I could imagine. Made more memories than I can remember. This place has touched the hearts & served beautiful souls. A watering hole like no other, hands down one of the coolest places I have had the pleasure to stain my mind with good times.

1 star for food bc there is none, 5 stars over all bc this is the divest of five bars and Mike the bartender rocks! You never know what you’re going to see here, and for me that’s part of the appeal. I walked in one night to an 80’s disco dj party and it was awesome. Definitely a Tempe staple.

Played some pool, got super plastered, and got in a fight what I would expect out of a dive bar. 10/10

Nice atmosphere, good selection of beer & perfect size dance floor... slam dancers are limited in the velocity they can attain before the forced change in direction!

This is your classic American dive bar. Very diverse crowd throughout the the day. The drinks are cheap $5 or less for beers. Has a music box when I was there on a Friday they had a DJ nice unassuming couple there to service not push for tips.

Bar tender tried to tickle me. Will not be going back.
Perfect. The perfect dive. Here's to Chuck! Fuckin Chuck! The most welcoming bar. Like a beautiful Tempe monument. Historic. Glorious, glory holius. Boom. .

I like the people, the atmosphere, cheap drinks and pool tables.

What kind of place advertises itself as a dive bar, looks like a dive bar, acts like a dive bar, and then charges $10 for cover on a Wednesday night with nothing going on? Go spend that money on cheap drinks somewhere else.
