overcharged my credit card, spoke to someone who worked there and never got a refund.

RVA is a mecca for new music. Dive is the most recent addition to the group of excellent venues dedicated to independent music.The decor is superb. Beautiful Turkish lamps, gilded birdcages and leafy "branches" above the bar create a magical feel, while comfortable cushions and padded recessed booths complete the vibe.The stage is small and has good proximity to the audience and it is easy to see from the whole room. There's a very cool floor to ceiling window stage left that looks out onto the sidewalk, allowing passers-by to see what is happening on stage - I love this!I'm told that Vibe is a work in progress. After this great start I can't wait to see where it goes!

Definitely worth the visit. Not your “college bar”. Very loud, flashy bouncy EDM downstairs, open and breathable, calmer ground level. Definitely 10/10

This use to be called switch. Since the name change this dive bar atmosphere has change. The night I went, it was geared to young white stoners. Heaven drug use was obvious. The drinks tasted weird. Won’t be attending this location any time soon.

Absolutely horrible what happened to this place. Never updates when they're open, and am nowhere even close to what it was when it started. Not worth the drive.

Your bartender zack has some sort of moral superiority complex. I tried hitting on these girls didn’t work and out I’m fine with that. keep in mind before I say what I say I had a previous experience at a separate bar where I bought these girls drinks and they walked off. The bartender at previous bar offered to decline me paying for those said girls. That be saying said I thought zack might’ve been ok with that based on my previous experience at other bar. Instead of just a simple no zack went on this whole moral grandstand spiel lecturing me aggressively for 3 minuites. I tried to tell zack about my previous experience and offered to just pay for it all anyway as soon as he started getting angry (which was instantly as I asked) but I couldn’t get a word in then he rudely told me to leave. zack I have autism so im sorry I don’t pick up on queues all the time.

$10 for a rum and Pepsi. Plus an 18% service fee, on top of the tip meant my girlfriend and I paid $30 for a beer and a mix drink served out of plastic cups. Are you serious? The vibe was good and the staff friendly otherwise.$15 out the door for a small rum and Pepsi with a weak pour of alcohol in a plastic cup, filled to the brim with ice. At least the bartender said they were getting rid of the 18% service fee next week.

Cool place but drinks was to sweet and over priced and the coverage was definitely over the top especially with it being a hour left for it too be open.
I had fun they just never did the Halloween costume contest like they promoted and that was the whole reason I came there. There wasn't much to do either. False advertising at its finest...
