Quintessential local bar energy. The bartenders were warm and welcoming with me. It’s positive vibes all around.
Let’s talk about food.
I was told the chili here is a 50 year old recipe. It changed me… having consumed it I am now a better man. Seriously, don’t skip out on the chili.
The burger. I’m not taking any stars away, but it was the weakest part of the meal. I don’t mind grill tops for cooking, but the burgers are soaking in grease too long. It comes out incredibly messy. Besides that, the burger was cooked to perfection! The toasted bun would be great if it wasn’t covered in burger grease.
As they like to put it themselves, “It’s a Five Star Dive Bar.” Tucked away at, you guessed it, 702 Jefferson Street, it’s got a surprising amount of room for a relatively small place. Still, there’s plenty of seating for small and big-ish groups, with real live music on a very regular basis (not just the weekends) and karaoke/specials during the week. When the weather is nice, you can hang out on the nice patio out front, complete with fireplace, comfy wicker chairs, umbrellas and table service. On summer nights, the 702.5 fires up out behind the bar, with a big dang stage, great music and a full, outside bar.
And then there’s the food. It’s not a huge menu, but that’s okay. What they do, they do well. While other bars may claim to have the Best Burger in town, the 702 actually produces that burger, with locally sourced ingredients. The other menu items are great too, like the ham & cheese sandwich, the quesadillas (not just cheese and tortillas) and the potato soup is always out dang standing.
Though it’s been around for a while, the building itself is still in pretty good shape, and getting better all the time. The owner makes sure to keep the place looking good, with nice upgrades showing up on a regular basis.
No review would be complete without a visit to the head, the latrine, the water closet, the bathroom. It’s surprising how many places don’t get this very important part of the bar right. The Men’s room, though small, is always functional and clean, and that’s a huge plus. On summer nights, there are additional portables out back, which helps because it can get crowded out there.
Like any place, the staff really makes the bar, and again, the 702 does it right. You’ll never be waiting for your drink because one of the staff is always right there, always friendly, always taking care of the customers. They rock.
If you’ve been there, you know. If you haven’t, you should go. Really. Like, today. Just go. And, as always, don’t forget to tip your server.
– it’s cash only, but at $8.50 for hamburger & $9.50 for cheeseburger, who minds?
I recommend this warm & friendly sports bar to everyone.
