The 702, The Deuce. Five stars across the board. I don’t give that rating very often because not many places deserve it, but The 702 delivers, every step of the way.As they like to put it themselves, “It’s a Five Star Dive Bar.” Tucked away at, you guessed it, 702 Jefferson Street, it’s got a surprising amount of room for a relatively small place. Still, there’s plenty of seating for small and big-ish groups, with real live music on the weekends and karaoke/specials during the week. When the weather is nice, you can hang out on the nice patio out front, complete with fireplace, comfy wicker chairs, umbrellas and table service. On summer nights, the 702.5 fires up out behind the bar, with a big dang stage, great music and a full, outside bar.And then there’s the food. It’s not a huge menu, but that’s okay. What they do, they do well. While other bars may claim to have the Best Burger in town, the 702 actually produces that burger, with locally sourced ingredients. The other menu items are great too, like the ham & cheese sandwich, the quesadillas (not just cheese and tortillas) and the potato soup is always out dang standing.Though it’s been around for a while, the building itself is still in pretty good shape, and getting better all the time. The owner makes sure to keep the place looking good, with nice upgrades showing up on a regular basis.No review would be complete without a visit to the head, the latrine, the water closet, the bathroom. It’s surprising how many places don’t get this very important part of the bar right. The Men’s room, though small, is always functional and clean, and that’s a huge plus. On summer nights, there are additional portables out back, which helps because it can get crowded out there.Like any place, the staff really makes the bar, and again, the 702 does it right. You’ll never be waiting for your drink because one of the staff is always right there, always friendly, always taking care of the customers. They rock.If you’ve been there, you know. If you haven’t, you should go. Really. Like, today. Just go. And, as always, don't forget to tip your server.
Have not eaten there.Service, they are often super busy & sometimes wait for drinks. But staff is doing what they can. Maybe more waitress's? Love when you've had live music, & comedians, were great.Heidi W.Parking: Need more....

The atmosphere is nice love the darkness of the bar I look for that it's a comfy place when it's dark. The waitress was nice. The food however is less than average. If you want to go to a bar go here for the atmosphere and drinks not the food.

I just wanted to give a huge shout out to the 702! I have been here to party on weekend band nights, and stopped in on a couple Sunday afternoons with my family which include 6 kids! The service is impeccable, food and drinks are on point, and Kami (spelling is questionable) is amazing! However, do not go there if you have children that don’t have manners or respectful dining qualities! THANK YOU KAMI!!!!

The food was ok but the server was more worried about the game on TV and the small groups beer that was watching the game. Came in around lunchtime with two teen boys and a couple smaller kids Took the waitress over an hour and half to get our order to us. Even then she forgot the food for the kids. The other group was just beer....very little food. Our group was there first and yet served and attended to last. The place is understaffed and NOT worth the time anymore

This place is known for keeping your change when you pay with cash. Donna the owner encourages this unethical behavior.
Best burgers and tacos!
