4 Best Dive Bars in Columbia

“They don't have a kitchen so don't expect to go there to eat. It's not a restaurant. Employees are always nice. The lady at the door is polite and professional. She ensures no one is under age. I always enjoy myself when I go! Prices are pretty good too.“

“the owner is awesome and does so much to help a lot of people in the community and her story is just so much and so many times Untold about that. truly a great place to go with a feel like home atmosphere. I enjoy it there myself because it is home for me as I'm sure it is for a lot of other people.“

“CJ’s is a really really underrated spot in Five Points! Unlike so many of the other bars in the area, the bouncers were pretty cool, and the bartenders did a great job. While I wish that they might have had a larger selection of beers on draft, they at least had one IPA on tap, and another in a can.

The ambiance was cool as well - it was definitely a dive bar, but not in a way that means it was run down or nasty. They had a cool, vintage Pac-Man machine, and the pool area was nice and spacious as well. Although I didn’t use the outdoor patio, it seemed like the perfect spot to people watch or hang out with a large group of people, and you had a bird’s eye view of the Five Points Fountain.

All-in-all, CJ’s was a lot of fun, and I definitely see myself coming back in the near future!“

“Best place in Columbia for great wings, atmosphere, and sports!“
