The Dive Bar is an awesome place to go for cheap drinks, free pool, and a good time. Jill is FABULOUS, no sooner do we walk in and she has our regular drink order ready for us. She treats ALL her customers like family and this is the reason we come in weekly! The owners are also super friendly and welcoming.

This is a cool place, I didn't eat so I don't know about the food or need service, although the bartender was on it.The clientele is diversified, no problem.Entertainment was karaoke, when I was there this sings were average for karaoke.Mixed drinks tasted good.All in all I had a good time and I admired the diversity.

Nice little bar. Customers and staff mostly know each other. That said, they went out of their way to make me comfortable and feel welcomed. Beer is cold and inexpensive. Clean and well kept. Owners were friendly and down to earth. Highly recommended! Jill on Wednesday and Thursday is amazing.

Stopped in to have a beer after work. Jukebox was playing, Jill the Bartender was engaging and fun. We played music and celebrated birthdays with the Ladies of Fairview, great fun! Highly recommended! Happy Birthday to the FAB FIVE!

The service is the best on Wednesday and Thursday with Jill. (LOVE YOU, Jilly). Don't get me wrong, all the servers are very welcoming. For food, you can order frozen Imos pizza, but it is fresh because so many customers order one to two at a time. Try the place out.

I love this little neighborhood bar! It's small, and not overly crowded. I especially love Monday night Karaoke with DJ Schwen! Pop in and have some fun with no crazy drunk people, fights or violence …
