Best lemon drop martini that I have ever had. The bartender is always really friendly and seems to know what he's doing. He's very consistent with his drinks. The space itself is quite small and doesn't hold a lot of people. There are some tables out at but overall, seating is limited. We will pop in for a couple of drinks before we head out for the night.

The Dime (also known as No-Name Bar) is one of our favorites. It's a small, craft cocktail spot for good drinks in a cozy, fun atmosphere. The bartenders are experts at their craft and are always helpful. In a college town full of run-of-the-mill, crowded bars slinging wells and mixers, the Dime stands FAR apart in the best way! They have an excellent craft cocktail menu, and a huge stock of unique spirits to boot. We always recommend the Dime for a cocktail before of after dinner!

The pony-tail bartender was absolutely rude and condescending. Idk if the dude is just ignorant or racist, but he is definitely out of place with that attitude in a college town like Gainesville.

Hands down the best cocktails in town , always wonderful service and just a lovely atmosphere. Intimate and cozy space (side note the bartenders were quick to step in/kick out harassing people/unwanted attention which is such a good feeling and safe atmosphere to be in ?)

Great little cocktail lounge with an excellent mixologist behind the bar. The price is reasonable and the drinks a cut above most .

One of my favorite cocktail bars in Gainesville. The drinks are made professionally and are priced very well. It's always fun having a chat with the bartenders/bar-backs and generally a very easy-going atmosphere.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!!!!!!!
DO NOT GO HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE TOLD TO F*** OFF AND BE RACIALLY DISCRIMINATED. As a Yelp elite, an establishment is worthy of my review for either being very worth trying, or terrible. I’ve never reviewed a business on Facebook but the experience I had was so bad I had to share my Yelp review here as well. The Dime is not a place I would even give 1 star to due to the worst bartender I have ever experienced.
Whoever the guy is, he had straight longer dark hair in a ponytail, wore glasses, and was tall and slim. I would like to identify him to the best of my ability because of how horribly rude he was as a person, and I genuinely believe he should be fired from his job. It was so astounding because I have never even HEARD of this type of treatment anywhere I have been.
This is what happened: This establishment was really small, so when my group of 5 walked in to find a table, there was really no place for us, except a small table along the wall. This was the first bar we stopped at, so keep in mind we were not under any influence. We grabbed 3 extra chairs that were around us and tried to squeeze it to the open table. The first thing that the bartender said to us was "please do not block that pathway, it is a huge safety hazard". That statement had nothing wrong with it, and he was rightful to communicate that to us. We apologized and moved out of the way. However, the next phrase he said to us was "and that's why it's only a 2 seater table!" in the most pretentious tone and literally rolled his eyes at us.
This story gets exponentially worse. My boyfriend and his friend went separately up to the bar at different time intervals. 1 of them asked the bartender if he could get a vodka Red Bull. The bartender tells him they don't have vodka red Bull. Then, not very long after, my boyfriend asks if he could have a vodka red Bull, not knowing they didn't have any. The bartender said in a very rude tone "Like I told your friend, we don't have red Bull". My boyfriend proceeds to ask if the bartender can make a tequila drink with citrus flavors. The bartender asks "is a Paloma is ok?" and my boyfriend politely asked what is in a Paloma because he has never had it before. This guy SCOFFS at my boyfriend so hard that my boyfriend was so taken aback, he just ended up asking for a simple tequila sprite. Later on, my boyfriend up to ask for 4 of shots, and the same bartender lets out a gigantic sigh and said "ok" with so much attitude of not wanting to serve. At this point we were so fed up by the pretentious little comments and mannerisms, that he didn't even bother hiding, we didn't leave him a tip. He proceeds to look at the tab and tells my boyfriend in a sarcastic tone "thanks for your generosity". My boyfriend proceeded to explain to him that "tips are left for genuine good customer service that didnt come with pretentious attitude". Finally, the bartender literally told my boyfriend in the exact words of "go f*ck yourself". We tried getting the owner, but the prick told us he was the owner, which we don't know is true or not. I noticed that my boyfriend was the only person of color in the establishment, and has significantly darker skin than our other Caucasian counterpart customers. In addition, no one else in my friend group were treated that horribly, so I can definitely sense some racial motivation as well.
If the owner or manager would like to reach out to me, I would definitely like to speak to them. Your employees are out of control and behave with no class, decency, or friendliness. This guy should be FIRED.
