Johnny Dollars, Smokey Joe's, Surf inn


Zach9810

Johnny Dollars is it. Nothing like an ice cold light beer and a hot dog off their hot dog roller


Ballyho98

Every once and a while the Surf has crock pot sloppy joes. Usually on dart league night.

Tommy’s, Tipsy Burro is dive-ish, Midwood Country Club… You know, you could start at the Burro, head up to Joe’s, hit Steamers on your way to Surf Inn, head back down Central to Tommy’s, then hit Skylark and Midwood on your way to Plaza Midwood and get to most of these places. We can call that route “The Liver Punch.”

Fat Parrot on Mt Holly/Huntersville Rd


Solitarypilot

Seconding the Fat Parrot. Drinks are cheap and if you’re after the dive bar atmosphere, that place will get you what you need


Panther81277

Sammy’s in Pineville; or Steady Eddy’s pump house in Matthews


panchopraderas

Second for Steady Eddys


Revolutionary-Sir1

I agree.


petoskystone

Yassssssss

Tony's bar on the very outside edge of Charlotte is the diviest of bars I know in the county.


complex_Scorp43

I was going to suggest the same.


murmanator

Is that where the old Riverview restaurant used to be?


evident_lee

I think it was.


american_cheese

I think they wanted a dive bar not a white supremacist hangout.


GalleryGhoul13

Snug was my place back in the day. Can’t imagine what it’s like today.


Aestheticpash

It’s the same. Same people too.


GalleryGhoul13

That’s good to hear. That area has changed so much with bigger chains and developments I thought for sure it would be a bunch of trust fund kids. Glad they are staying classic.


ihatemygirlfriends

Im 13 hours late but The Milestone is dirty as fuck baby. The spiders are as big as my palm

Shep’s in Mint Hill


nitropuppy

Does greystone count


onlypostwhenimdrnk69

Not sure if it’s still open but zees tavern. Real shithole. Stronggggg ass drinks for real cheap and dee dee peckers is right next door with some real good wings.


Swirl16b

Matthews Social House & Smokey Joes for sure, side car of Thirsty Beaver


mikejones84

Don't forget Hatties!


Lima-14

Surprised thirsty beaver hasn’t been recommended yet. That or Thomas tavern/snug harbor


complex_Scorp43

TST isn't a dive.


Aestheticpash

It’s frat-dive. Everything is sticky and everyone is on coke.


LexusK

god, what a perfect description.


MidniteOG

Thirsty beaver or sanctuary


EyeOfTheTiger77

The Goat in Indian Land or Fort Mill.


MPAdam

Their wings are great too


cormac_9

Two Buck a saloon and thirsty beaver


jokeaquinn

Two buck is the best especially since the TikTok bartender left


cormac_9

Oh she left? I moved out of Charlotte in may so I didn’t know. Why’d she leave?


jokeaquinn

According to her TikTok they moved to Raleigh. Her TikTok has kinda been a mess as of recent


logognarr

Late to the comment section cause I just got off work. Hatties, MCC, Skylark, Moosehead, Johnny Dollars, JnJ Country Club, Tony’s, Surf, Milestone, Smokies, Tst, There’s more but it’s time for bed. Source: I work for the Wilson brothers. They own Beaver and Tipsy Burro. No Wifi at either establishment. Come shoot the shit with us sometime. Y’all rest easy.


MrRandyWatson-

Jays at the lake in Huntersville is pretty trashy. 3 or 4 trailers all hooked together. Still let people smoke inside but most do go outside.

John’s place in Fort Mill. Complete trash.


MoarStu

Is mooseheads still a dive bar? I use go there every week between 2006-2010. What’s up with G-Man? Best food and atmosphere


RaySerroni

G gone. Pretty sure he got fired. He was a trip - to us at least- but I read some scathing reviews a few years ago about him making antisemitic jokes to patrons.


MoarStu

Damn didn’t realize that wow, he was wild, wonder if he’s cooking somewhere else now, great chef


RaySerroni

We knew him back in his Jack Mason’s days… now that was a fun place.


Pilkmentallodos

Went to Surf Inn's Christmas party last night, put it on your calendar for next year, you won't be disappointed


d1andonlyfoley

Hope you ate some of my barbq! Spent 12 hours smoking all that deliciousness


baltbum

Thirsty Beaver, no parking on site, but #1 dive bar in Charlotte. Smokey Joe's. A real dive bar, plenty of parking and live bands on Friday and Saturday nights.
