FAQ

Q: Why make a website dedicated to dive bars?
A: Because, as far as we know no one else has thought of anything like this. Plus we are tired of all these "fancy" and "nice" places getting reviewed. Dives need love too.

Q: What do you consider to be a dive bar?
A: SEE our qualifications on the home page. How did you miss that?!?

Q: Of all the bars you've been too, which one has the worst bathroom?
A: That's a tough one, but we are going to have to go with The Bronco Inn. Any bar with a trough also qualifies. Oh and any rest room that smells like the interior of a Northwest Seed & Pet (The Old 619... RIP)

Q. Are you worried that you'll piss off some of these bars with your reviews?
A: Absolutely not. Some of these bars deserve to be criticized, while others are perfectly pleasant places and in reality we are just trying to spread the word..and maybe get a free beer or two out of it.

Q: I'm by myself late at night, should I go dive bar hopping?
A: Not if you want to see tomorrow.

Q: Which dives in Spokane are your favorite?
A: The Moezy Inn, The Brown Derby, and The Lamp Post...those are the ones we frequent the most anyway.

Q: Have you ever feared for your life at one of these dives?
A: Yes, a few times. Most recently at Chan's Dragon Inn (The Red Lantern Room). When the bartender warned a patron that she did NOT want to call the PO-LEEEESE again.

Q: I don't think one of the bars you plan on reviewing is a dive, do you care about my opinion?
A: A. You're dumb. B. No, we definitely don't care.

Q: I just left a total shit-hole. If I tell you the name and location, will you review it?
A: Yes! We definitely want your recommendations, and if the bar/shit-hole meets our standards we will definitely review it.

Q: How far are you willing to travel to check out a dive?
A: We've been as far as Plummer, Idaho so far. I'd say we are definitely willing to go just as far in any direction. Maybe 90-100 miles?

Q: What should I drink at a Dive?
A: We definitely suggest Rainier. But if you have to settle go for Pabst or anything that comes in a camouflage can.
