"This townie favorite is Athens’ ultimate dive bar with a twist — think vintage charm meets cozy chaos. The red-lit interior is decked out with black-and-white photos, mismatched furniture, and just enough kitsch to keep things interesting. Drinks are strong, affordable, and delightfully offbeat. Try the house favorite: Maker’s Mark with spicy Blenheim ginger ale, or go for an expertly made espresso martini. With free popcorn, a jukebox, and a porch perfect for people-watching, it’s a beloved local hangout that feels like a well-kept secret in a town full of watering holes." - Sarah Bisacca
