It has a special, magical charm of the perfect dive bar. I'm ignoring my previous trip there as, well, I should not have brought that person to this place. This place is not for pretentious people. Thus I was at home at this spot. It looks camouflaged by plain wrapping with a boring exterior. Open the door and it is a world of more things to explore than you have time to. You are treated like family as a stranger. Be ready to be among people who want to know you. I guess I fit as some there knew my friends from other dive bars. I never realized how small the Dallas Dive bar world was. I have some cool friends. The music is good on the video jukebox. The tears came to my eyes as a few post 9/11 patriotic songs were played (I bleed Army green and so did some that didn't return home to their moms intact.) Glad none there saw my eyes or noticed my toast to my memories. The couple dancing on the next song made me feel more at home. Good thing a good 2 step or waltz never played or I might have had to find a partner. The decor is somewhat Green Bay Packer-ish. Okay, a lot of Green Bay love in the decor. Heh, yes, I still carry a grudge from the 1967 Ice Bowl as a life long Cowboy fan should! But, I respect a bar owner who has actual stock in his/her team and displays it proudly! So that adds another star or would that be Starr? The patrons make this one special. This is one of the great dive bars!

I brought my industry friends to what I thought would become my new favorite bar, but we were treated with disrespect, as if we didn't belong. I'm not sure why the vibe was so off today--maybe it was a particular person at the bar--but I'd strongly recommend avoiding Sundays. Unfortunately, this experience tainted my previous visits, and I'm not sure if I'll be back. I know plenty of good people who would love this place, but only if the staff and atmosphere were more welcoming.

I was here about 11 years to see a Stevie Ray Vaughn cover band. The lead guy dressed like SRV and…read moreplayed only his songs. The bar has a back room for music on certain nights of the week, so a friend and I went on a Saturday night. That was a long time ago. I completely forgot about this place until we were in the neighborhood after going to Fair Park for kid's activity in 2026. The bar is kind of a dive bar. It is not modern or updated. But it has a ton of charm and reflects days past in East Dallas. We found a table and sat. The bartender was solo so he was doing everything: bartending, taking food orders, and bringing the food out. I wish his name was on the receipt because he was doing a great job and I wanted to acknowledge his efforts. He was pleasant and friendly despite having to do everything himself. There are about 20 beers on tap so the wife and I each had a beer and the kid a soft drink. We ordered a small cheese pizza for the kid and we shared a "Tavern Favorite" which comes with spicy sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, and purple onions. We skipped the onions. Pizza came out very quickly and was piping hot. The crust was thin and crisp. The toppings were beyond generous. I have not see so many toppings for a very long time. The sausage was indeed spicy. It was delicious. The entire pizza was excellent and the bar earned its reputation for excellent pizza. The wife liked this place and there were some arcade games for the kid so I have feeling we will be back.

This place definitely leans into the dive bar vibe, but in a slightly more upscale way than most…read more It still feels like a classic dive at its core, just a little more polished. That said, the atmosphere felt a bit standoffish when we walked in. It had that energy where regulars clearly run the place and aren't thrilled about newcomers, which made it a little uncomfortable. Getting a drink was surprisingly difficult. We managed to get one, but it took way more effort than it should have, and we ended up leaving shortly after. I will say, the presentation of the hot dog was hilarious and easily the highlight of the visit. You can tell it's something they're known for and lean into. Unfortunately, the hot dog itself was pretty average and didn't live up to the fun presentation. Overall, it's an interesting spot if you want that true dive experience, but between the vibe and the difficulty getting service, it wasn't somewhere I felt the need to stick around.
