Weekends call for relaxing evenings toasting the good life and having fun with friends. Luckily, you don’t need to drive too far from the Dallas area to find a good dive bar. Try any of these three dive bars, and you won’t be disappointed.
Cosmo’s
Cosmo’s is a groovy, funky joint that sells great Kimchi Tater Tots and a good selection of drinks. Cocktails come at affordable prices and are well-made to meet your taste. This retro-style dive bar also serves chef-driven Vietnamese dishes and pizza. Once here, don’t leave without trying the Mayan mule or Lychee martini.
One-Eyed Penguin
The One-Eyed Penguin is a great place to have fun and make a couple of friends. The neon lights and vibrant art that decorate the bar’s walls make the place look unique. Whether you want a shot of whiskey, tequila, or vodka, or a pint of a domestic or local beer, this dive bar has what you need to enjoy your night. You can dance to the DJ’s tunes on Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday night, or join DJ Dr. Droi for karaoke on Tuesday night.
Ship’s Lounge
Another great place to grab some inexpensive drinks is the Ship’s Lounge. The dive bar has been around since 1947, making it the oldest dive bar in Dallas. Ship’s Lounge may be small and cozy, but the TV and pool table will keep you entertained all night. The experienced bartenders can pour you a shot of your favorite liquor or a fresh draft beer to quench your thirst.
Visit any of these Dallas dive bars one of these days and have some fun alone, with friends, or with a partner.
