5 and Dime

"Known for its freezer martinis, presenting a classic drink in an ice-cold, refreshing manner." - Zoe Baillargeon

"5 and Dime has the quiet elegance of an old European library and the decor of a dockside tattoo parlor. The drinks menu is similarly refined and eclectic, with cocktails that match savory and floral notes with tested classics. The bar’s full seasonal lineup hasn’t been fully locked in yet, but there’s a rotating selection of hot drink specials incoming, including standbys like boozy hot cocoa and hot buttered rum, as well as the welcome return of a spicy vegan hot rum chai." - Ben Coleman, Janey Wong

"In recent years, Foster-Powell’s 5 & Dime has made its hot dog-packed food menu part of its core identity, but to regulars, it might be better known for its love of a different kind of dog. With two long side patios — including one with gas fire pits at each picnic table — 5 & Dime is apt for an outdoor hang on all but the most frigid of winter days. 5 & Dime supplements a solid beer and cider list with stellar seasonally rotating mixed drinks, as well as some quick classic cocktails on tap for busier nights. Keep an eye out for certain neighborhood celebrity canines who are among the bar’s most cherished patrons." - Michelle DeVona, Nathan Williams, Eater Staff

"Originally offered as a temporary pop-up from Street Disco, hot dogs were such a sensation at Foster-Powell’s 5 and Dime that they became a permanent fixture on the food menu. The dog offerings have streamlined a bit since Street Disco opened their own brick and mortar spot in the neighborhood (R.I.P. PB&J dog) , but the remaining dogs satisfy all styles of dog lovers, each available with a beef or vegan frank. Pair a smoky, citrusy Paloma cocktail with a hearty Coney dog or match a fish sauce-slathered banh mi dog with the basil, lime, and apple flavored Life of the Party mocktail. Wolf down glizzies in the cool dark barroom or outside on one of more than a dozen covered picnic tables." - Nathan Williams

"Taking over the site of a beloved neighborhood pub, 5 & Dime is putting in the work to fill that void. A too-cute bodega theme was dropped in favor of a classic mid-century Nighthawks aesthetic. Skilled bartenders slinging classic mixed drinks alongside rotating themed cocktail menus (’90s pop songs, fantasy novels), a hot dog menu from nearby Street Disco, a deep tap list, Blazers games on the TV, and energetic support of local mutual aid efforts have made it a neighborhood staple." - Nathan Williams, Janey Wong
