7 Best Dive Bars in Salem

“The bar is the same size inside as outside.
The people are loud and boisterous with friendly demeanor, they bought me some jello shots

Friendly bartender with a good strong pour on a spiced rum and ginger beer.
Bartender was able to easily recommend a unique drink when asked. It was a very tasty drink. I will revisit“

“I am usually really happy at this bar. But have had some off putting experiences with a couple of the staff being unfriendly and/or out of line (mentioned something about my personal life when we had never met before. Super weird). Went there on Christmas and left after only half my drink because even the manager was unfriendly. Everyone but her and her son have been excellent and I am always glad to come in on the other bartenders shifts. Fast and friendly, overall“

“This has been such a happy surprise. Bethany the bartender has the best energy and way w all the customers. Rita’s Taco Truck is phenomenal, my mouth is watering just thinking about their food, Able and his mom are a DREAM TEAM. Only reason I didn’t give five stars across the board is because the smoking area is rather large and the smell can be smelled inside.“

“Awesome place, awesome people, awesome drinks, awesome food.“

“Good place w/good people. Pool takes center stage in this bar. You’ve got a high chance of running into a grand master pool player who’ll be willing to teach you.“

“Good pizza good service and people“
