    I was invited to attend a party here to celebrate our CM - Alex L's departure from his long run with Yelp of Sacramento. It worked out well as a nice place to handle our small intimate group. The interior is spacious with dim lighting for that romantic feel. There is also a lighted outdoor patio area. Above the bar, there are 3 large TV's and plenty of seating indoors and out. They have specialty cocktails and a menu of delicious comfort food selections. Years ago, if you called someplace a dive, it wouldn't be a compliment.  But now, going to a dive bar is a popular way to hang out with friends in the comfort of the neighborhood it's located in.  Dive bars to me are usually old buildings that get minimal care and up grades.  Said establishments offer all the basics that one would expect in a bar from drink selections, snacks, tables, chairs, jukebox, TV's and of course a pool table. Ambiance is not what a dive bar is usually about, but Bear Dive fulfills most if not more, of what I have mentioned, by including good service and a great bartender! Our group had a fun time hanging out and socializing! It turned out as a successful night reuniting some of us old time Yelpers and seeing Alex L again. But of course, we always have a good time when we get together!

    Love the Bear Dive! Queer run, queer attended, and queer safe. You'll spot bears in the art and the people, but all kinds are welcome. Most dive bars feel cramped and full of unfriendly people, but bear dive is the opposite. Too much smoking on the patio for me, but it's a great gathering space indoor or outside. Food is greasy spoon dive bar food, love the fries and great drinks selection. Drag shows most Fridays and security after happy hour, when the kitchen closes. Dogs are welcome too!

    Patrick was our bartender and he made our night. He was funny, customer service oriented and key us know of future events. My friend group is super into drag shows and are excited to visit future events. Drinks were fresh and delicious. Very chill vibe with South Park on the tv and chill music in the speakers. 10/10 recommend

    The so-called "covid hours", as in being closed Mon, Tues, and Wed seems a bit bogus. I hope they can stay in business.

    I was on my way to a show at The Press club on a friday night. I was looking for a place to eat…read morebeforehand. That's when I came across this place. I went in. I knew right away what I wanted. I had a mushroom swiss burger. It was really good. This will be my new spot for dinner before going to any shows.

    Been here a few times and never disappointed! I feel so welcomed when I arrive and the service has…read morebeen amazing here. I have been especially impressed when I have ordered the bottomless mimosas because they always keep an eye out and fill up your glass as soon as they're able to. Hardly making me wait. The food is delicious. Some of our faves are: TJ's Potato Benny Hash Platter, the poached eggs and hollandaise sauce are perfection. Roscoe's Breakfast Burger is so good, especially with the over easy egg. Chicken & Waffle is good but I'm not a fan of combining them (gravy on top of it all) so I'd separate them if you're like me. Still so good. My fiancé loved the veggie scramble. Oh and we can't forget the fun decor! As they state in their website, the decor pays tribute to the artists and people from around the world who welcome diversity, equity, and inclusion...and there's no second guessing that! Great experience overall. Next time, we plan on going to a Sunday Drag Brunch!
