    This place is a bit ducked off but it is extraordinarily unique and I absolutely love it. They also have a very open and creative patio in the back that is perfect for a nice night out! :-)

    A plush experience with a nice vibe, cold drinks, and a chill patio to relax between sets.

    This was my first time coming to Caves and I am so glad I did! My favorite type of bars are just like Caves: dark, obscure decorative items, mood lighting, live music, and great drinks. I saw Abel Delilah there, a local band from Arlington, they were absolutely great with a funky vibe! If you love dive bars, make the trip out to Arlington!

    Had a good first experience here. They don't serve food but you can order food or bring in your own. Laid back ambience and friendly crowd. Huge patio for smokers. The open mic night was pretty fun.

    Terrible. I came to Caves with a group of friends, during closing time, I left the restroom and attempted to quickly go back to our spot to make sure none of us left anything. The bouncer told he it was time to go and I explained to him that I just wanted to make sure that we didn't leave anything. I assured him that it would be quick and I would be right out. He then proceeded to cuss me out and spat at my feet. I still tried to be cordial and tell him that I just wanted to quickly check and leave but nevertheless he continued to berate me. Absolutely terrible service. If I could give 0 stars I would.

    Soooo, this place was definitely for the younger crowd. I totally didn't read the app from "Eventbrite". I got a couple of tickets for free, to come to Happy Hour Bingo. The ad stated there was going to be a dj and the happy hour drinks were from 7pm-9pm. So I googled the place and thought, okay...I'll go play bingo and have a couple of drinks. So I get there ready to get my bingo cards, ink bottles, etc....(bingo tools) I arrived at 7pm and it was not traditional bingo....it was MUSIC BINGO. So, I was a little disappointed...in myself for not reading the ad carefully.... I was ready to play traditional bingo. Anyhow, it turned out to be okay. I met the dj (dj cheap)...who was soooo friendly and nice. He was so patient and kind to have explained everything to me. This place is a cool little place for college kids to unwind and let loose. The bartender was nice ( josh..I think). I mentioned it was my first time there and he welcomed me and gave me a run down on the happy hour drinks. That part was great. There was a variety of drinks at really great prices. I had a beer-pint $4. The ambiance was nice outside. It was nice. I am 99.9% sure I won't be back. But I would definitely recommend it to the younger folks.

    It's a small dive bar, but they have a lot to offer. There's a good drink selection. They allow us to bring our dog both inside and on the patio outside. We're her most Tuesdays for trivia, which is a lot of fun.

    Friendly bartenders, nice atmosphere and art inside the building. When I walked in there was a person singing on the stage inside. The cocktails were also a great price and came with a double shot. There is a lot of space outside to talk with friends.

    I really liked Caves. From the outside it didn't look like much, and it's got no curb appeal, but the decor inside is pretty nice. Feels cozy and at home. The patio out back is done up pretty nice too. Service was good and the locals were friendly. Drinks were fairly inexpensive. We went on a Tuesday, which is trivia night, and jumped in half way through the game. I guess the locals don't usually get rowdy over their drunk trivia so they seamed amused with us out of towners doing all the hooting and hollering. Thursday's they do karaoke and this place was poppin. The house was packed, and they had some serious talent up there singing. The DJ had plenty of really contemporary choices, which was cool. Love this place. Good times.

    Wonderful atmosphere. Decent, affordable martinis. $2 wells on Wednesday during happy hour. Can't go wrong

    I highly recommend Thursday night karaoke. It was a blast and one of the highlights of my beautiful time in the Dallas/Arlington area. It was a legendary night. God bless Caves Lounge!

    Ok I'm gonna bump it up to 5 stars! Everything is the same as before but now they deserve the 5 stars. Keep up the great work and keeping it fun! Thanks all!

    Work was rain-cancelled after we all drove to Arlington, so we decided to grab a beer. First stop was someplace loud and boujie. We hopped over to Caves. I’m in love! Low-key, cool comfy chairs, red lights, broken tile and other neat decor. Ultimate dive bar. Jukebox. Normal, reasonable beer prices. Fun Halloween decor. Even the ceiling is decorated. This would make a great movie set. And I hear there is an outdoor area I missed! Omg, can’t wait to go back. We’ll be back.

    Caves Lounge is the epitome of a cool dive bar that I never tire of visiting. The atmosphere is laidback and chill, with a unique vibe that's all its own. The entertainment is always top-notch, with a variety of acts that keep things interesting. When I visited last, there was a fantastic jazz band that really set the mood and made for an unforgettable evening. The drinks are always great, with plenty of options to choose from. Overall, Caves Lounge is a must-visit spot for anyone looking for a fun and unique night out.

    Best Drive Bar in town. Eclectic vibe and decor. Kind of like your high school art class projects on display. ❀️ Great bartenders and drink prices. Variety of live music. But the real magic. The back patio. It's a familiar back yard lawn chair, fir pit situation. With weird metal art and vibes, good energy, and good music.

    Caves is one of my favorite local dives. Thursdays is karaoke, and it's usually packed but a lot of fun. Reasonably priced drinks, unique laid-back atmosphere, and quick friendly bartenders, what more could you ask for. Oh yeah, and the patio is large and awesome πŸ‘ŒπŸ½

    Dive bar at its absolute best. Amazing vibe, cool crowd, cheap drinks! And the patio is the best.

  • 5/5 christine j. 1 year ago on Google
    Good dive bar. Decent priced drinks. Paid Jukebox, sometimes a DJ. One coin-operated pool table. Huge back patio with lots of individual seating areas.

    Caves wants you to think it's a dive bar. It's not really. But it's got a great atmosphere and the bartenders have always treated me right. And they know how to make all the current popular staple drinks.

  • 5/5 Bill C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great hospitality and friendly staff! Had a great time and spent way too much money, but then again it was a bachelor party gift to my nephew so it's all good and worth the over $430.00

    Crimson Skylines band rocked the house, headlining with two sets! Caves was a cool place and want to play there again soon!

    Was visiting Arlington from out of town. Had some local friends suggest this place. When we arrived, I immediately noticed the poorly developed parking lot which made it very difficult to park. After walking in I went straight to the back to look for a place to sit down with my girlfriend and a couple of friends. After a little while I noticed another small group that I wanted to introduce myself to. Went over, said hello, sat down and then was promptly given the "Seats taken" Forest Gump-like response, but in not such a nice manner. I then stood up and walked to a different table and sat with the friends I arrived with. One from the other group came over and sat down. I proceeded to tell them to leave, as they were not able to offer me an equal share of hospitality. Minutes later, someone from the bar (likely the manager) said we needed to leave. Never before have I been treated with such disrespect from a business. When asked why we had to leave we were told it's because "you're an "a**hole Mariner's fan". This is a trash establishment, built on old fashioned prejudice and biased business tactics. I'll HAPPILY take my business elsewhere. πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

    I love coming here anytime I feel like having a beer and listening to some jams! Wide selection of beers on tap, happy hour til 9p i think. They have a really cool jubox with a huge patio area. You can even being your fur babies to hang out!

    This place is cool on the inside! Lots of stuff to look at and their jukebox has mostly compilation discs that someone put together. This leads to a wide variety over many different artists. And the fire place is really neat. Also, if you check out the ceiling you will find old bar taps up there.
