7 Best Dive Bars near Melbourne

“Went to see Kurt Adams play on 2/24/24. This place is old, small and full of character, history, and ambience. The night I was there was a mix of regulars and folks there to support Kurt and everyone was friendly, just looking to have a good time. Service was good even though the bartender was new. I've heard that the bluegrass jam every other Thursday is cool, so I hope to check that out soon.“

“THE Xavier bar. Whether it's a casual beer, wanting to go somewhere for a sports game, or a nice afternoon to eat and drink on the large deck, this dive is tried and true for generations. If you're part of the Xavier community, you know this place well. If you're not, you should wander off Wasson way in a sunny afternoon and enjoy a drink out on the two tiered deck. Helpful to know: Try the Hershel Special.“

Service has always been good with usually youngish bartenders that are friendly. Drink prices are the cheapest in town. On weekends will play music louder to create a fun atmosphereParking: Mt Adams is a challenge to find parking when visiting establishments. A parking garage does exist nearby for use.“

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“Love this place I meet my best friend there at least once a month for a good old kickback. Since Hal has been on board I see a lot of improvements. The horrible dishwater smell is gone!!! Alicia's one of my favorites too so down to earth and good energy. Great vibes!“

“The girls running the bar are so happy and fun and bubbly! Not a huge place, but GREAT PEOPLE! If we're passing thru the area again, I'd for sure stop and have a brew or two and a soft pretzel (those are great bar food snacks)! Thanks for the hospitality for the run today, ladies!“
