I give this place 5 stars only and specifically because I'm reviewing it as a dive bar. A dive bar is not supposed to serve food or give a shit about decor, must have a pool table and only take cash. They check all 4 boxes here. They have a juke box (it's expensive but all the new models are now) and offer a cheap beer (I paid $3.50 for my Budweiser and I'm still trying to figure out how that wasn't a mistake). The atmosphere is...well, perfect dive bar. The room is large enough so you never feel claustrophobic. There might be 15 people or 2 people there all night but that's another dive bar quality, you never know. The bartender my night was on point, knew exactly when you get you another drink and how to add to the conversations and fun of the evening. This kind of bar is a dying breed, but if you want to take a step back into what at times can feel like it's the 70s or 80s this is your place.
Also if you just wanna go drink and be around people that don't wanna be around other people this is your place. But at the same time they might crank up the volume on a good song and everyone hops off the barstools dances around the entire bar. It's kind of awesome to take part in. All of this review was based on only the one time I've ever been there and I stayed all night and had way too many but again that's exactly what a good dive bar is supposed to do. This place isn't for the faint of heart so if you're thinking of waltzing in there with a bunch of your pretty college friends barking out fancy drink requests and bitching about the service, you're gonna go down in flames. Just know how to read the room and enjoy the drunken debauchery.

It is the perfect neighborhood bar to go watch a game where everyone is down to earth. They don't really have any real food to eat but hey it can't be perfect. Fair prices and no attitudes. Just eat before and you're good.

There's no food, and it's a dive bar atmosphere. Go on Fridays. There's a small pool table and jukebox. You can bring outside food inside.
