Bear Dive

I originally gave this place a 1 star rating after the way I was treated the first time I visited. Then I heard there was a new owner, so decided to give this place a 2nd chance. I must say that the customer service has improved dramatically! The bartender was friendly and actually paid attention to the customers! Security was much more friendly and welcoming as well. My only gripe is that they don't let you keep your card open. You have to pay for each item you order individually. Other than that, this place is WAY better under its new owner!

Bear Dive is a nice, low-key bar with great vibes located away from your typical LGBT+ hot spots (Badlands/Depot, etc.). I came to two of their gamer events, which were a lot of fun. TVs were set up with different consoles, like PS5, Switch, XBox, and open to anyone to play. A huge plus is the music is never too loud, making it a good place for conversations with friends.

I like coming here, don't get me wrong. It's just very small and there's nothing interesting or well organized about the space. Kinda just one small room, limited seating, and a porch. Their events are usually pretty fun. Been here for roar and karaoke plenty of times. Drinks are reasonably priced. Not my first choice of gay bar but not my last either.

I Love attending the live lip-sync shows on Sundays. The performers are awesome, Patrick the sole bar tender is so good at his job, Patrick is polite to everyone, (and everyone wants their drink now), and he's quick to fill both food and drink orders. I do totally recommend this place

I love the atmosphere here! The staff are always super friendly and the drinks are reasonably priced. There’s a patio outside which is a huge plus too! I see that they promote a lot of events, so I’ll definitely be back for one of those!

Happened to come in for the first time with my boyfriend on a karaoke night. It was a blast! The atmosphere is fun and unpretentious, the drinks are awesome (and inexpensive for the size you get) and the service is great. We definitely want to come back soon!

Cool, welcoming place to hang out. Big nightclub, party feel, with lots of loud music. Really nice owners and patrons. As lively bars go this gets 4 starts, but I don't like most bars, especially busy ones. Personally prefer quieter dive bars where you can have a normal conversation with another person over the music.
