Had an awesome time here last night. DJ Mungis kept the energy up from 730pm-1:30am and did a great job reading the crowd. Music was a perfect mix and kept people dancing. Definitely coming back to see him!

Dive bar is your traditional college bar. Cheap drinks, decent selection and cramped quarters. Came on a Saturday, which of course was busy, but there only seemed to be one bartender who was struggling to get to everyone. He was definitely doing his best, but they should really have at least 2 people during weekends.

Friday nights DJ, DJ Carson/ Mungies, was absolutely INCREDIBLE. The atmosphere was electric and the vibes were unmatched. Best music for dancing, chilling, and having a good time with friends.

10/10 vibes with a party place downstairs in canteen on the weekend and a more traditional dive bar on the entry level. Pool table on the second floor and a killer patio/rooftop combo. Always a live DJ on the weekend and awesome bartenders. Cheap prices you can’t beat on Short Vine and I LOVE that they don’t allow the kids in. Makes it just a better vibe overall.

A friend of mine told me that I absolutely had to check out Dive Bar so on my way between one thing and the next, I detoured over here. After finding some questionable street parking – there was a carpet of broken glass from a breakin nearby – I stepped inside.
This place is… unusual. I’ve never been to a joint with a two-level bar which was interesting. At 5pm on a weekday, the vibe was peaceful and light. A few UC girls popped in for shots and got carded. A bunch of locals were hanging out. I simply enjoyed my PBR and the show.

13 health violations!!!! Warning!
Worst bar experience of my life , but made for an interesting story to later tell friends. Regarding the health violations, if you check out Yelp it list them all right there.
I came in before a UC game to meet some friends and dealt with a male, bald bartender. Reading through some reviews and even very old ones, I am not alone in my experience here and not alone with this bartender I had a bad experience with. I heard he always is a bit cheeky and sarcastic, but never have I been treated so bad. I saw a tab from the customer before me with a $0 tip on their receipt, that should have been my first warning sign. Even my friend was saying his customer service made her feel uncomfortable and we wanted to quickly finish our drinks and leave. He was in an OSU jersey that day and they just lost to Michigan, so maybe that was it?
It wasn’t crowded when we got there and not even a full bar, typically in that situation you don’t have to flag the bartender down. But he barely acknowledged me until I did so. When we were ordering our drinks my friend was saying she wanted a specific flavor high noon and he said they did not have that, although we were looking at it with our very own eyes. Then when I tried to order a Corona Light he said they don’t have that and if I want to order a beer I either want the “pounds” or not. Just wild!! It doesn’t end there though. I tried to order 5 shots of white tea and that is definitely not what I got. It straight up smelled like straight tequila, which white tea is vodka, and didn’t look like white tea at all. When I asked him about it (which I was afraid to) he made some snide comment and took one of the shots. On top of that I had ordered 5 and he gave me 3…
Just a very confusing customer service experience and would never go back. I’m not sure the point of acting that way or treating customer in such a way when all we truly had done is come in and say down and spoke amongst each other and wanted to have a couple of drinks before heading into the bar.
If you’re looking to go to a bar before the game, go to Martino’s. That is where we went after and I have been to before. This was my first and last time ever going to Dive Bar. I was anxious for my bill because I was unsure of what he was going to charge me. When I got it it was only $10 so I left a $2 tip (which I really considered not even doing) and called it a day. Also, here is a picture of my “5 white tea” shots.

We always like to find neat dive bars when on vacation. We were going to watch a band at Bogarts and stopped in here to pre-game. It’s a perfect example of a great dive bar. Small space, good music (bar tender knew what band was going to be at Bogarts that night and had them playing over the house system), cheap drinks and friendly staff. Can’t get any better than this.

Clearly underaged bouncer didn’t let me in, i think he was 19, not entirely sure if he finished puberty. I’m 21 and I gave him my ID, and he cried about it being fake.
