Cool vibe here. Great service from Olivia. Had the pot roast special. Tender delicious huge portion of beef served with sweet potato and potato mash and grilled veggies. The burger are made to order juicy and big. Highly recommend the establishment.

Cool little place. Not a Dive bar, the Alamo is a Dive bar. All kinds of food, beers on tap, and indoor seating. We like it just fine. We had the beniet doughnut thingys. No complaints here. Check out our YouTube channel Coolest Life.

What a fantastic burger. The Dive Burger was beyond expectations. Can’t wait to try more on their menu. Unfortunately I’m not sure I can skip the burger to do so. I don’t typically eat ketchup, so the following words have never come out of my mouth. That was the best ketchup I have ever had. It made a ketchup eater out of me. Well done Dive team.

Actually, anything but a dive bar!! The food her is prepared by chefs who know what they are doing! The Cobb Salad (with Parmesan Peppercorn dressing) was amazing. All the vegetables were cut up nicely and the presentation was awesome. And there was an ample amount of chicken salad provided! I also had a (big) cup for the Green Chili. It was basically a cup of shredded pork in a wonderful flavored green chili sauce. Highly recommend!

What a great gem in a college town. We were so impressed with the whiskey selection, the food, and the quality of homemade ingredients. The owner was so delightful to visit with and the bar staff so welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be going back!
