Had an awesome time here last night. DJ Mungis kept the energy up from 730pm-1:30am and did a great job reading the crowd. Music was a perfect mix and kept people dancing. Definitely coming back to see him!
Dive bar is your traditional college bar. Cheap drinks, decent selection and cramped quarters. Came on a Saturday, which of course was busy, but there only seemed to be one bartender who was struggling to get to everyone. He was definitely doing his best, but they should really have at least 2 people during weekends.
Friday nights DJ, DJ Carson/ Mungies, was absolutely INCREDIBLE. The atmosphere was electric and the vibes were unmatched. Best music for dancing, chilling, and having a good time with friends.
10/10 vibes with a party place downstairs in canteen on the weekend and a more traditional dive bar on the entry level. Pool table on the second floor and a killer patio/rooftop combo. Always a live DJ on the weekend and awesome bartenders. Cheap prices you can’t beat on Short Vine and I LOVE that they don’t allow the kids in. Makes it just a better vibe overall.
A friend of mine told me that I absolutely had to check out Dive Bar so on my way between one thing and the next, I detoured over here. After finding some questionable street parking - there was a carpet of broken glass from a breakin nearby - I stepped inside. This place is... unusual. I've never been to a joint with a two-level bar which was interesting. At 5pm on a weekday, the vibe was peaceful and light. A few UC girls popped in for shots and got carded. A bunch of locals were hanging out. I simply enjoyed my PBR and the show.
dj carson was amazing and created a great atmosphere. his choice of music was great and was very enjoyable
We always like to find neat dive bars when on vacation. We were going to watch a band at Bogarts and stopped in here to pre-game. It's a perfect example of a great dive bar. Small space, good music (bar tender knew what band was going to be at Bogarts that night and had them playing over the house system), cheap drinks and friendly staff. Can't get any better than this.
