11 Best Dive Bars near Woodbridge

Main Tavern Bar • $
78 Main St, Woodbridge

“This is the type of bar that I dig. No frills. No food, but you can order whatever you want. Beer and a shot type of place. Hasn't been updated since 1988 except for the arcade game and touchtunes on the wall. Tony was tending bar... aces of a bar tender. Know what you want, be able to take a joke, show a little respect, and your beer won't be empty and will always be cold.
You will have a good time here. Be sure to tip the staff well.“

“Great local spot for drinks and food, with tons of TVs and all the sports, plus a cool little outdoor seating area. Has its own parking lot too. The food was pretty great, we had a small bar pie that had good flavor and crunch, and the disco fries were awesome. They're curly fries, which is great. Good service too, basic tap list but the domestics are $3 all day every day?? Sign me up. Live music on Fridays too, would definitely go back.“

“This was our first time here, and I’m so glad we stopped by. Our bartender Donna was quick, friendly and even took the time to give us food recommendations since we didn’t know what to get. Thank you Donna! Our food was DELICIOUS. We got the crab cake sliders, and the grilled shrimp tacos 🌮 We even had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Marie, who cooked our delicious meals. Everyone was so kind and welcoming. Not to mention you get a wonderful view being up so high and overlooking the boats and the creek. We can’t wait to come back. 👍🏻👍🏻“
