    Promoter knowingly had her 18 year old friend Lexi in the bar. Blocked people on tik tok when it was addressed. Good luck addressing the police when they give you a ticket for knowingly serving underage kids.

    This use to be one of my favorite dive bars in Atlanta but after last night I’ll never return. I’m hearing Dive Bar under new management and it shows ! The younger looking white security guard that was standing immediately to your right when you first walk in not only said racist things to me and my friends when we called him out (11/19/22) about the fact we were waiting to go downstairs to the bathroom but he tried to allow to white girls who casually walked up to go down before us. A huge argument occurred because a result of it and he seemed to be proud of the fact we called him a racist. If this is the tone the new owner sets for his staff Dive Bar never has to worry about me coming back !

    They added to the tip without my permission. You might think people don't notice these things and you can skim tips but I notice. I wonder how many times this bar has changed what people signed on a receipt. That's why you check your bank charges.

    This place is epic! I've been coming here for quite some time. It's super live on Saturday nights around 11 or 12, it's insane. It's free to get in but you have to be 21. The people are always cool but it can get so overwhelmingly crowded, you can really get hurt if you're drunk enough! But other than that me and my sister love this place! Parking can be hectic so I would get there early. There are plenty of other free bars surrounding this one, equally crowded, and live!

    The perfect spot to end the night, no cove & a couple of spots with hookah (a lil overpriced but it's aight)

    A few weeks ago me and my best friend Bella decided to go to our first bar together ( we have both recently turned 21). So this night was big one for us. We got to dive bar and immediately the service we got was AMAZING. Kenzie was our bartender and she was the sweetest person! She continued to check up on us and made sure we were okay. Chris was also just as amazing, kept great conversation, and was very attentive. I spilled my drink and he even filled up again for me! I love this place. My bestie and I plan on going back soon!!!

    Me and my friends have been here a handful of times, and the last time we went. It was pouring raining when it was time to leave and we were standing by the door waiting for a ride when 2 random guys decided to start fighting they threw one guy outside in the rain and then all of a sudden they started pushing. Everybody females and all outside in the pouring rain literally physically pushing us even though we explain to them we’re just waiting for our ride. They were pushing us talking about We are closed when there were 5 minutes before they closed there were a ton of people still in the building ! We are definetly never coming back I wanted to fight you do not ! Put your hands on a female let alone a paying customer pushing them in the rain Extremly disrespectful. !!!

    No dress code is listed anywhere, including online, and the dress code only applies to men. Any place that’s called “dive bar” shouldn’t even have a dress code. Then the rude bouncer with one eye insulted my clothing.

    This establishment is very inconsiderate. I was out trying to enjoy my birthday weekend and I was denied access over my dress code.

    They let way too many people in to the point where I was up against multiple people chest to back for at least 10 minutes everyone yelling to stop pushing- music is not that good. Drinks are fine. Will give 3 stars because it didn’t take long to get a drink and it’s probably better on a slower night.

    Honestly its a good bar. The owner is very friendly and always open for improvements. We played beer pong outside and met many nice people in there. It’s expensive but what’s cheep around this area.

  • 5/5 Olabisi W. 11 months ago on Google • 14 reviews
    Really love the vibe here. It’s very chill and laid back which is always a great thing to find in Atlanta. There’s a an outdoor patio with plenty seating in the back and an outdoor bar as well. In the evening the lights go on and it’s super pretty! Loved my time here. Will be back

    No one shows up to this bar, Pretty high prices, It’s a terrible environment. Music is terrible, security will throw you out for having fun. If someone is wearing a white tee shirt your instantly denied entry. Not worth my time or money

    Used to be one of my favorite places but tonight, the dj was not playing good music. Drink was very watery. Not a good night.

    The Dive Bar is off the meter anywhere I go to go to a club I always turn it out and I'm 52 years old but move around like I'm 25

  • 1/5 Reese S. 2 years ago on Google
    Didn’t happen to me, but saw male workers there essentially assault female customers. Disgusting behavior.

  • 4/5 Kre P. 2 years ago on Google
    Small and crowded BUT the staff was friendly and security was amazing for our vip sections.

  • 5/5 Jayla C. 2 years ago on Google
    love this place!!!! cheap drinks and always a great time!! Definitely for a younger crowd though.

  • 4/5 Brandon S. 4 years ago on Google
    This place is absolutely wild on a Saturday night. The crowd is into it and the bartenders are moving swiftly. The patio is the best place to be in my opinion. Great location in Buckhead. The crowd is a bit on the young side but overall it's a fun time.

  • 5/5 Nick C. 3 years ago on Google
