This place is dope. No clue if they have food or not but my wife and I will be back based on the service and atmosphere alone. Very nice hideaway from the hustle and bustle of PnL and reasonably

My husband and I popped in here before seeing a comedy show & T-Mobile Center not knowing anything about the place, and wow we loved it! The bartender Robin is so personable and good at what she does. The divey atmosphere had us feeling right at home. Not to mention, finding reasonably priced drinks downtown is practically unheard of! We ended up stopping back by after the show, and plan to come back any time we are in the area. Thank you Robin & Zoo Bar for a great experience!

The Zoo Dive Bar is a Graffiti Paradise!!It is a little step into history itself, and so much fun doing so. You can find pictures, articles, and writing from quite a few decades.Our bar tender was extremely nice and personable. Also the locals were funny and a real woot to chat with. You feel welcome as soon as you come in, and that was exactly what we were looking for in a little hole in the wall.There is a pool table, and music of your choosing from the jukebox!Everywhere you look you can find something, and if you look again, you'll likely find something new! It's an exciting place. Highly recommend.FYI this is a CASH ONLY BAR!

I have to give my fair assessment here- I’ve been here 15+ times and there is always an issue here. ATM Doesnt work, closes early for unknown reasons, off/ on about serving people in general. I know the location is great, but I’ve always had to leave very close to arriving here for reasons listed above… just kinda strange ??‍♀️

Stopped in for a quick drink after lunch and Marilyn was quick to greet us like we had come there for years! Great little bar with a neighborhood vibe!

Love this place! Enjoy the marker covered everything...walls, bar, tables, and ceiling. You won't break the bank drinking here. Bring cash. They don't like those plastic things....

The bar tender who was in the teal shirt tonight was incredibly rude and claimed we didn’t tip although we did multiple times. We only didn’t tip once when we didn’t have extra cash and she threw a fit and would no longer serve us. Don’t go to this bar!

Politically correct atmosphere. Someone said my friend was “offensive” simply because they didn’t like him and kicked him out over hearsay.
