    The servers were extremely kind. Loved the ambiance inside so much, it's a very unique spot in cave city. Holds lots of history. The decor is charming I loved getting to see this place!

    Really great bar. Really great service. Really great prices. Can't complain. Really good food.

    Good times here at "The Dive"! We were cruising through town and stopped in. The bartenders were nice, and was very welcoming. Be sure to stop in for a drink! Ask for the "Steak Dinner" shot.

    I was greeted by a young lady as I entered the building. She complimented my sandals and welcomed us to "the dive" this was a good first impression. I later found out this was one of the owners, which absolutely spoke volumes about the business. Leticia introduced herself as a owner- absolutely bubbling about her business and everything she wanted to bring to the community upon its grand opening. She was curious to hear feedback and observations from my perspective as a patron; wanting to optimize and improve any small detail that may affect my experience. Letcia was genuinely reinforcing her passion for the success of her business here at the dive. The atmosphere is uplifting. Decor and lighting really bring about a positive vibe and the tender was more than accommodating. I got a piece of culture, meeting "two finger Timmy" and having the opportunity to engage with locals was like none other I've ever experienced. I was shown the transformation of the building, and can only say "wow" in regards to the amount of gentrification needed to get this place where it's at now. Prices were more than fair, literally CAN NOT beat $1 beers when compared to my usual bar tab in Louisville or Bowling green.. That being said I'll absolutely put this spot in my destination list for a fun night out on the town with not so long of a drive.

    The Dive reminds me of that bar I couldn't get into when I was 16. It is the best bar within 30 miles. So if you are enjoying mammoth cave, live within an hour and don't know what the ... to do with your night go visit The Dive and enjoy some darts, pool, beer, liquor, and a good time. :)

    Well, I wish I would've taken pictures while I was there because the ones on here don't represent…read moreit very well. Food/Drink: For starters, I got there after the main kitchen closed so they only had fried food. It was pretty late, I didn't even expect them to have any food. I just had fries, and they were good. I didn't have any alcohol, because I no longer drink, but it sounded like unreasonably cheap prices for the most part, at least compared to where I'm from. They also have cans of soda, which is my preferred style. The menu isn't huge but I'd also prefer that over overwhelming. They have plenty for everyone. It is 21+ at all times. Pool: The 7 foot tables were in pretty good shape, definitely better than the average bar table for sure. I didn't get a chance to play on it because others were using it, but they just got a brand new 9 foot table with an awesome, square, huge LED light for the top of it! They also hold tournaments pretty often, so it would be a good place to play for a long time, one day, without having to commit to a league of any sort. Service/Atmosphere: It's small, what some might consider a dive bar, but I think it can be so much more! I say that because the service was phenomenal. The bartender was so sweet and funny and honest and kind. I needed it that night, so I am truly grateful. All of the folks that were in there were also really nice as well, which to me, speaks of how the business is run and the people that they attract to their business. I'll be back if for nothing else than to say hello if I don't have time to play, but only if I'm passing through the town of course, it's a couple hours away from home. P.S. (nothing to do with this review) Yelp, I don't know if you actually read these but for some reason when I put a "." the next letter after the space doesn't capitalize. Not a huge deal, but I like for my reviews to be as grammatically correct as I know how, and having to go back to correct those is just a little tedious. This is the only app that it happens, so I was just curious if anyone else had the problem as well. I'm on an iPhone 14 ProMax if that makes a difference.

    Unassuming dive bar. Definitely a place where the locals play pool. Lots of tournament action going…read moreon. They serve food relatively late, if you can stand eating in a cloud of smoke. No one was particularly hostile and no one was very welcoming outside of the bartender. Well bourbons here are $2.50. I told the bartender about my experience at Bar Louis and he laughed saying he'd never be caught dead at chain bar paying $6.50 a drink. Definitely not a place to roll in solo unless you're a pool player. Definitely felt out of place, I felt that way driving through the neighborhood it takes to get here. But it's a cool place if you're in to local dives and you play pool.
