15 Best Dive Bars in Atlanta

“In from out of town but treated like a local from the start. Alex was amazing from the beginning. He was the first one to great us and through out the night was super friendly and attentive. If I was local, this would 100% be my local hang. Will visit again when in town.“

“We had to stop and grab wings. We are so glad we did! Best in Atlanta! They are perfectly cooked with the best amount of seasoning and sauce! We wish we would have had a chance to eat them again! We got lemon pepper, lemon pepper jerk, buffalo and buffalo jerk. They were all delicious.
Only bummer is this place is 21 and up and we couldn’t all go in and enjoy the wings, but it is busy and worth the long line!“

“Awesome place to drink and play games. They also have a great trivia night on Sundays and a Smash Brothers Tournament!“

“Super divey spot. If you don't like the smell of a dive bar and the dark atmosphere this might not be for you. The wings were AMAZING and they were priced extremely well. The bartender was super nice too. Definitely come thru and have some wings and beer sometime. You won't be disappointed.“

“Won't be the same without pj.“

“I wish FB had a love button! What a great place. Food was amazing, owner and staff very friendly and attentive , sound was great, vibe was laid back and crowd was great! Hope to perform there again soon. (Photo Jeff Evans)“

“Outside dining is great. Tables aren't cleaned nearly enough or well. You'll enjoy seeing artsy people. Many are friendly. Service isn't wow, but decent. The fish and chip, loved the batter and the tenderness of the fish. I was not pleased with the one small cup of tartar sauce. I had to pay a dollar for it.“

“all of the bartenders are so nice!!! they promote
saferide, a rideshare app to get you and your car home safe if you drink too much, as well as drink testers to make sure your drink wasn't spiked!! all of the bartenders are so genuinely
caring, especially Leon! highly recommend stopping by for a drink :)“

“Had lunch here today for the first time. The Valet was awesome, the atmosphere was friendly and laid back. We had Juan as our server and he was spectacular! The array of oysters we tried were fresh and tasty. We’ll be back!“

“i was in miami for one night with my friends & Yadira showed me a good time!!! i had the mango smoke show she recommended. 10/10 service i need her every time oh and she stayed on top of the bartenders with our drinks everything was so good i love her“

“Great dive bar. Friendly staff and a good price on drinks.“

“Food, staff, drinks... all 20 out of 10.“

“History: My Father’s band use to play here every weekend, (back in the day). I was with him all the the time. Band name was T.E.E, Time Effort Energy. I was very young. This place holds so much life value to me. So many great memories. R.I.P Jimmy Gates Sr. They were a Blues cover band.“

“I really like the feel of this bar. It feels like a great local bar where everyone knows each other and the vibe is real chill.

Let's start with the bad. The parking lot has only 9 spaces and one path to enter/exit the premise. There is some street parking but you have to pay for that.

The place looks huge. Plenty of seating and TVs at the bar. There is an upstairs and outside patio.

I ordered the Stromboli which was huge and cheesy. I also grabbed a beer and cocktail which were good. I like this place.“

“very cool breakbeats show yesterday, I wish you posted Facebook events like this one so more people would show up, I discovered it accidentally and just putting events on your stories makes them hard to discover sometimes!“
