See our night (or day or afternoon) out on the dive bar scene

We’re fair. We show the good and the bad for every bar we visit.


Biddy Early's Pub

Don't let the Financial District location fool you. Cheap drinks, frigid beers, non-townie intimidating, and bartenders known to hand out free T passes for those patrons who...became a regular on their first visit.

Chez Jay

A true gem for regular folks and non-douche bag celebrities. Historical and iconic, this is a long-standing oasis of beatific humanity connected by cold-beer DNA, comfort steaks, and a short walk to the Pacific for the ballsy resolution of bar bets.

Bryant’s Cocktail Lounge

Hands down the best bar in Milwaukee. Classic early 70s Sinatra vibe. Classic cocktails. A must-see.

Silverlake Lounge

This is the Silverlake Lounge in LA. Nice little divey venue at Sunset and and Silver Lake Blvds. Unpretentious with cheap drinks and even cheaper thrills. Where else can you catch local bands or a big-time touring act or even a Latino drag night all in the same week? Super cool staff to boot.
