I was downing pints of Stella over at Flybar on Divis, and the next thing I knew I was getting into a cab with my group. Me: "Where are we going?" Ashley: "The Marina." Me: *hangs head and wants to puke* (and NOT from drinking!) I didn't actually hear exactly where we were going. All I could think about was the fact I was going to the Marina wearing the same clothes I had been wearing all day, since going out at all that night was a last minute decision and I wasn't planning on the Marina! Anyways, we pull up to this place and I'm thinking "Where the hell are we!?!" I was later informed by a guy that apparently comes here regularly that we were actually in SOLO...south of Lombard (gotta love how much some people will break down SF). We walk into the place and the first thing I said to one of my friends is "We're not in the City anymore." Not that I don't ADORE this city, but it definitely needs a place like this. 1) They serve alcohol (always a plus for a bar) 2) It's a REAL sports bar (and a regionally affiliated sports bar at that. There were a few Nebraska banners hanging up and they were playing the Big10 network on the TV, so I guess there's some sort of Midwest connection). I'm from AZ where regionally affiliated sports bars are all over the place, so this felt like home. 3) It's unpretentious 4) It's a dive, but not TOO divey (trust me, there's places in the City a lot divier than this place) 5) They have a juke box 6) They have a pool table 7) They have FREE popcorn In addition to this they serve bar food. I didn't try and it didn't look good, but I didn't care since I wasn't eating it. Our waitress for the evening was a doll. It sounds like from some of the more negative reviews I've read on this place poor service was an issue, and I can't say I experienced that at all. Our waitress was prompt with drinks, had no problem managing several tabs, and most important had no problem dealing with obnoxious drunk people (*me raising hand*). I also talked to the big bad owner/manager a few reviewers have mentioned and I found him to be quite pleasant. I'll DEFINITELY be back.

I go there and I feel a bit old and a bit tired of all the smoke. But the food is very cheap and it is pretty darn good for bar food. The french fries are my favorite ones in Atlanta. And I love the veggie sandwich and the bbq sandwich and the.. So I return again and again for a quick meal and drink on the cheap.

This place used to be just your average dark and divey Irish pub. Now it's been revamped as dbar and it's a great place for a nice dinner and drinks with friends in Dorchester. The place is dimly lit, small (seats maybe 50 people), and cozy with a very nice bar area and large, cushy booths. The food is fantastic and there's an adjacent parking lot with room for about 25 cars. After 10pm they push the tables aside and it becomes a dance club catering to mostly gay men. So eat early and enjoy.
