The Dive

Went for the first time last night and it was sooooo good! We went all out for casual date night and got several cocktails (our favorite was the chai frozen special) popper dip, wings, and shared a pizza. My husband loved the dip, the wings were amaaaaaaazing and we ordered more to go, along with another pizza haha The server gave us very honest and accurate recommendations, and other bartenders (and maybe a manager?) dropped by to make sure we had everything we needed, so service was top notch. Would definitely go back again, especially for the buffalo parm wings and chai cocktail!

I love the vibe of this place! It’s eclectic, yet cozy and there are even board games to play if you like! I love the vintage glasses for water and the ice cream. Our servers were super friendly and great at making recommendations. The pork rinds were fluffy yet crunchy, but very salty. However, the fries and both pizzas were delicious! The ice cream twist was surprisingly delicious, better than some ice cream shops! Great for a solo date with yourself or meeting friends.

So, I went to this restaurant Friday night, and it was a 3.5 out of 5 for me. It's not a full 4, but definitely not a 3, either. But I can't do half ratings, unfortunately. We just walked in and grabbed a table, and the server came over right away with menus and these really cool glasses of water. They had these restaurant week specials going on, and we saw the pizza on the table next to us and knew we had to split one. No way would we be able to finish a whole pizza each, get apps, and get dessert. We got the summer special Corny pizza and the fried pickles to share. Sadly, whilst everything was super hot and fresh, it was way too salty. The pickles were so salty, they almost killed my taste buds. And the pizza was pretty salty, too, in my opinion. The corn, old bay, scallions, and gojuchang combo didn't really work for me either. But the service was good, and the place looked really cool inside. I might go back someday and try one of their regular pizzas.

Easy to love this place! Great atmosphere, nice service, and really good food and drinks. Tried their wings, burgers, fish sandwich, fried pickles and cocktails. Recommend all! Great happy hour deals as well. Definitely worth stopping by.

Best choice was the smash burger. Consistently good. Fries were undercooked and wings over sauced. This particular experience atypical as they are usually spot on in every respect. Everyone deserves an off night. We will definitely be returning for another meal soon.

I've been around the sun 43 times and visited 70+ countries. Hence why when it comes to food I feel I have a pretty solid data set when I rank food. With that said, the Friday Night Special Pizza with bacon, mushrooms and pesto sauce and balsamic drizzle was absolutely fabulous! Top 3 pizzas of all time. The peperoni was a'rite. Especially since the special was soo amazing.

Great vibes at this spot and solid food. The service was mediocre. The people were friendly enough. But they don't do a dedicated server for a table but rather share the duties amongst all the servers. That means that we'd get checked in on 3 times in 6 minutes by different people, but then ignored for 20. We got to put our drink and appetizer orders in very quickly, but had to eventually flag someone down to place our entree order. Another downside was that the two-player button was broken on the arcade table. But the food and aesthetic more than make up for the shortcomings. They've got a ton of 90s memorabilia. They even use those old collectible glasses. And there are a lot of really fun food choices. Prices are reasonable.

Our absolute favorite restaurant in the neighborhood. The staff is great and are so welcoming. Peter is the best! Walking into The Dive feels like stepping back in time and we love it. The food is great and so are the drinks. Their dirty martini is phenomenal. Cannot recommend this restaurant enough and so happy to have them here in Canton.

Visited the Dive last Friday night and it surpassed my expectations! Despite being pretty busy, we were able to get a table without a reservation. The vibe is old school diner, but done in the best way. Cute glasses with cartoon characters, glass plates that look like paper plates, and booths reminiscent of Burger King. Food was on point and service was quick and friendly - we had smash burgers and fries and didn't leave a single bite on either plate. Love that every Monday this fall their specials will feature foods from the two cities facing off in Monday night football! Can't wait to go back to The Dive and try more of their menu.

Great experience at the dive. My daughter just moved to the area and we were able to walk to the dive for dinner. We were greeted immediately upon entering, didn't have reservations, they invited us to choose our seat. I love the 1970s vibe of this place We split a pizza, which was absolutely delicious. It was my first time trying fried pickles, very interesting! I had the mermaid's tail cocktail. I have a feeling we'll be coming back to this place every time I'm in town.

This has become more and more of a regular spot for me especially on a bar crawl. Upon entering, it feels cozy, fun, and wholesome. The staff are always so friendly and welcoming, giving you that kind Baltimorean charm. The food was delicious! I got the eggplant pizza, I HIGHLY recommend! In the back you can play Guitar Hero, so that is a fun thing to do while hanging at the pub. I like bringing friends from out of town here so they can get a taste of the unique, fun pub scene especially since the drinking cups are so cute here!

Now how this place slip from under my belt?! Small neighborhood bar with oldies but goodies items. I forgot to take a pic but their water glasses had the Smurfs on them.. THEN we were told we could play Pac-Man at the bar... they're so lucky it was the end of my night cause I would have spent hours in there sipping my drink and playing the game. Ordered a pizza and asked well done, and it was overly done. Not blaming them cause that's what I get lol but when I come in here again I'll just get the pizza as it comes. Can't wait to come back!

I came with a few friends to have drinks and catch up, and we had a fantastic time! The service was great, both servers were attentive and made sure we were taken care of all night. We scooted in right before happy hour ended, and the deals were good, but their regular priced cocktails do not break the bank! To start, we had the espresso martinis and they were classic and delicious. Next I had the Pinball Wizard (x3), it was so fresh and melon-y. My friends had the Red Devil and the Dirty Birdie martini. I cannot wait to come back specifically for the martini, it was filthy, salty, and sooo so so good. We also had the pickle fries, which were good but a bit thin so it was a lot of fried and not a lot of pickle. We split the cheese and pepperoni pizzas and they were thin, perfectly baked, and easy to eat.

A funky neighborhood diner. My friend and I came here for some food and drinks at the bar. We ordered their Pinball Wizard and Wind Surfer on Acid cocktails which were both refreshing. We got food off their happy hour menu - A Miss Chicken for me and a Royale for my friend which both came with fries. Our items were decent and came out on kiddie plates (cute, hence the "happy meal" names). Service was good and food was pretty decent, all at a reasonable price.

Cute neighborhood bar! We went for trivia and the drinks and food were good. We had the pepperoni pizza and arugula salad. We sat the bar due to limited seating but the service was good. Get there early if going for trivia as it fills up quickly! I'll def be back.

Good pizza. No sausage on the Za. Expected more from this place. Dominos for now until this places gets it together

Great neighborhood bar, amazing food, and drinks love their buffalo Parmesan wings, and they're frozen drink specials!

Another quintessential Baltimore bar, vibes are good, music is great, staff are friendly and nice, you really can't go wrong with The Dive if you're looking for a place to hang out around Canton. I started out with an espresso martini which was delicious. Unfortunately that was the only good food and drink I tried. To be fair, I only got the fried pickles were way too salty. I also tried both the cran apple slush which had a weird spice to it, and the orange crush which was too sweet and tasted like orange creamsicle. We also tried the AL Green Tea shots (good but v strong) and the SOCO Amaretto Lime shots (very yummy!). Overall, not my favorite drinks and not my favorite fried pickles in Baltimore, but still a fun place and I would come back to try other foods and drinks!

This was more of 3.5 stars for me than a straight 4 or straight 3. We walked in on a Friday night. It appeared to be seat yourself, so we grabbed a table, and our server promptly brought a menu over along with water in very cool glasses. (In my opinion, lol). They were running restaurant week specials, and looking over to the table next to us, we knew we would just be splitting a pizza from the portions of it. So we got the summer special Corny pizza and the fried pickles to share. Now, here's the problem. Everything was piping hot and fresh, so it points on that, but everything was way way too salty. The salt level on the fried pickles pretty much blew my palate out, and then the pizza afterward was pretty salty, too, in my opinion. And I'm not sure the combo of corn, old bay, scallions, and gojuchang quite worked for me. Alas. Service was good, and the interior decor and vibes were cool. I might revisit some day and try one of their normal pizzas.

Nostalgia bar with high quality ingredients. Great concept, comfortable space, very well executed.

Yelp fam! My wife and I had been looking for a new spot to call out happy hour home. After auditioning a few places we found it at the Dive! The Dive has some of the best Food & Drinks you can find in Baltimore. -the Pizza selection & specials are great -the happy hour is creative & cool - Sportsman & Happy Meal!!-IYKYK -cheesesteak special!!!! - the smashburger is by far a standard on the menu Pro tip*** ask about the rotating frozen drinks*** The inside is cool and has a 80's- 90's vibe, cartoon cups & lots of seating options. The staff there is amazing, every time I go in for a date with my wife or to catch a game. Everyone is chill, helpful & attentive. This bar is truly one of my Favorites. Check it out!!!!

The Dive lives up to its name! It has a very cozy, retro feel and is definitely very laid back. We came in in a Friday evening and there were plenty of booths and tables available. They have some fun cocktails and seasonal specials. I unfortunately had eaten a large lunch and still had dinner plans so did not get to try a lot of their menu. I want to go back when I am hungry because they have a lot of fun sandwiches and yummy pizzas! We did try the fried pickles and I tried a little of my friend's BLT chicken sandwich. Both delicious! They also have soft serve which is unique. We all got the peanut butter/maple swirl. Can't wait for my return trip to actually try more food!!

Second time here and we will always go back!!! The service is excellent! The drinks great! Haven't had food here yet. Love the unique glassware, it's fun and nostalgic.

Cool dive bar, cheap drinks, friendly bartender and nice hangout spot. Id recommend getting food somewhere else. Hotdog was terrible, pizza was even worst. Felt like I was trying to take a bite off a brick, it was so hard and not tasty at all, some of our slices were burnt too, didn't even eat them

This place is so cool!! Love the atmosphere and nostalgia. Got the pepperoni pizza and it was delicious. They have soft serve ice cream cones for dessert, I thought that was a cool idea. Our servers was on top of it also!!

My friend took me here while I was visiting her and it was a pleasant surprise. Not only were the bartenders friendly and helpful but the food was some of the best bar food I've ever had. The ambiance is very chill and laid back. If you're in the area you should add it to your list just for the pizza alone.

This bar in canton is definitely worth a visit! It has a super fun retro theme, decorated with nostalgic cartoons and toys from the 90s/2000s. The drinks are fun and on theme as well, like the pinball wizard or red death. They also have great happy hour deals such as 'happy meals' that include a sandwich and fries for I think $7. The food wasn't amazing, but definetly worth it for the price.

I was so impressed by the dive! The decor was eclectic and colorful which already put me in a good mood when I walked in. All of the staff was super nice! We came for drinks and decided to get food because our appetizers were so good. The disco fries were so delicious. I usually don't like gravy on fries but these had just the right amount of sauce that the fries were still crispy in parts. The chickpeas were crispy and soft at the same time. The pizzas were delicious. Apparently they have a new daily pizza and cheesesteak special every day! I will definitely be back for a low key meal or drinks!

Pleasantly surprised by this place! New to the area and trying our neighborhood spots and this will be one we come back to. Fun atmosphere with the old school cups and fun decor. Garlic parm wings were so good - and I normally only eat one wing when my husband orders them...I ate 5 of these bad Larry's. Staff is friendly and attentive. Great place for a casual dinner- very clean!

I have been wanting to check out this place since it opened in late November 2022. They have a great social media presence and has just been getting me more excited. I FINALLY got to eat there yesterday. There were only 2 people working and it was fairly busy, but the service was stellar! I love the ambiance...retro feel/decorations, including amazing paint job on the walls and roof and vintage glasses. They also have games available like Trouble and Connect Four. The drinks were delicious! I tried Red Death, Pinball Wizard, Piña Cool-ada, and Blue Hawaii. All were tasty but my favorite were blue Hawaii and Red Death. The chicharrones came out so fast! Which was great because the pizza took a little bit. I think they start cooking the pizza when you order, so it takes a little bit BUT also the pizza is so fresh out of the oven. I also want to check out their happy hour specials. Lots of interesting things. Can't wait to go back again!!!

Menu items like Disco Fries (fries topped with a tangy fondue & sautéed onions), creative pizzas (like fried eggplant & sausage or one topped with Dorito dust!), cheesesteaks and wings. A 1980's pop aesthetic with a really fun menu! The place is a one of a kind joint, I'd definitely go back without hesitation! Not a health food spot, this is a place to go & enjoy yourself and indulge or grab a quick snack. I had the dude ranch BLT (a BLT with grilled chicken breast & a tangy red pepper sauce). The sauce was really tasty & the chicken was juicy! Plus we shared a pepperoni/sausage pizza. The dough was light and airy, toppings were great - sausage was not those premade little pellets you find at some places, very fresh Service was prompt and very friendly! Food came out quick! Really wanted to try the soft served peanut butter ice cream..but unfortunately didn't have the room! Maybe next time!

Go to this establishment and you'll not be disappointed. The place was bustling on a Saturday night after a Ravens game and the wait staff was just the 2 bartenders and some unseen kitchen staff. They were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive in spite of their number. A1 service. What was delivered to the table was the perfect comfort food. The pizza had a crispy crust and the pepperoni had a wonderful char. The chicken cheese steak is the very best I have EVER HAD. It was flavorful beyond expectation. The kind of chef that would have the taste to put an arugula pesto on it to to skyrocket the dish deserves serious kuddos. The chicken in the BLT was tender and moist, while the bread we perfectly toasted and had a delicious aoli on it to tie the sandwich together. The fries with the gravy are fun and really good. They were perfectly warm and crispy. The were well worth the small upcharge. The decor is an delightful ode to the past with 80's inspired paint on the walls and classic games in the windows. They even serve the food on nostalgic paper plate replicas! The attention to detail is present in the service, the food, and the decor. I'm not from the area, but it's easy to see how this is a local favorite. I'm leaving this review because it's criminal for this spot to have so few reviews. It's evident they put the work in and they deserve to be recognized. This is officially one of my favorite places in Baltimore and I'll definitely be back.

This is still one of our favorite spots in Canton! Hands down, it's the neighborhood spot we can always count on. This team EASILY deserves 5 stars. I don't know more dedicated people in the industry. The food is always good and the drink options keep us on our toes. If you can find a spot, bunker down and explore the menu. It will be worth your while; it's always worth ours!

One of the best bars in Baltimore! Delicious food, great cocktails, adorable decor, incredibly friendly staff.

Ambiance on a Wednesday at 7pm was perfect! Some Volo groups came in after we sat down at the bar, but for a fairly smaller place didn't feel overly packed. Loved the decor and atmosphere! The throwback McDonalds glasses were a great conversation starter. Its was fun and vibrant without being overwhelming. The bartenders were fantastic. We ate at the bar and service was fast and friendly. I got a dirty bird with blue cheese stuffed olives! Yum it was a damn good dirty martini! For food we got the disco fries and the white pizza. Both were delicious, seasoned perfectly, and came out pretty quick (but not too quick). I finished the meal with a vodka soda. Pricing isn't crazy expensive either. All in all a great spot in Canton. I can see it getting crowded on the weekends. But if you are looking for a cool place, good service, and fantastic food give them a try. We will be back with friends next time.

The dive is such a cool spot! It's decorated very cute inside -- such a cute retro theme! We went there on a chill Monday and found they had happy hour from 4-6! It included some beers, and a special punch. I Ended up getting a frozen cocktail which was much needed on this very hot and humid day and we shared a pickle pizza! So yummy! The servers were very attentive and kind! Would love to come back and try some more drinks and bar food!

Really looked forward to trying this place since I'm such a fan of Sally O's. The food was so yummy especially the pickle pizza was so delicious. The vibes are so cute with all the 90s decor and nostalgic kid items. I love the lowkey vibes too like an upscale dive bar. The drinks were very good too. The service was quick even though it was very busy with not a single free seat.  Great neighborhood spot.

Stopped in Friday night after a movie for a low key spot to eat and drink. The energy is very welcoming and the bartenders/waiters are friendly and treat you like they know you. This is a neighbor bar and many people walk over. Parking, luckily was fairly easy but I can imagine hectic during the summer. The food was good bar food. They had some specials one of which was an amazing grilled chicken BLT. The chicken was thin, moist and well seasoned. The bread was grilled instead of toasted which made it buttery and delectable. I loved that the drinking glasses were Looney Tune characters and other cartoon glasses of my childhood. The pizza looked really good although we didn't try it. The pickle pizza looks like a favorite. My husband ordered flavored wings, mango habanero; not too spicy.

You need to be here, period. This place has a big menu, cheap ass prices, a thick drink menu, draft beers, non alcoholic options, and an insane happy hour. I don't know what else you'd need? The wings are 10 bucks per pound on Wednesdays(?) and they always rock my world. They also have huge hot dogs that are about a foot long... despite it being a bar, it has hella seating and even the seats at the bar are comfortable seats. The staff here are always super cool as well. Definitely a regular spot in my rotation when I have the munchies and need a beer!

Fantastic pizzas! I ordered online and picked up but wish I could dine in there sometime, they have a really homey feel. They were friendly and greeted me right when I walked in for my order. Both pizzas I ordered were great, I absolutely adored the pickle pizza and ranch pork rinds.

We walk by here every night on our routine walk and have been meaning to check it out. We were going to try to go in, but it was getting late so we ordered a pepperoni pizza to go. By stalking their instagram I saw that they are big fans of L'Industrie in New York and their burrata pizza is my absolute favorite so this excited me to try their pizza. We walked over on our usual walk and it was packed inside! Pizza was ready by the time we got there and it was absolutely delicious. I had wished the system would text you when it was ready because by the time we got home with it we had to reheat it (it was also raining). Hoping to come in some time soon!

Love this place...Great food and drinks. Super friendly bar tenders!! Can't wait to go back.

The Dive is one of our new favorite spots. The food is amazing & well priced. The staff are very attentive & helpful. Must try the white pie - our server suggested we pair with this rioja wine (see pic -- amazing smoky finish). Their pickle pizza is also a must! As far as sweets go, we loved their bread pudding topped with ice cream & their boozy chocolate raspberry slushies. The decor/overall atmosphere is amazing. They always have good movies playing on the tvs and board games available to play if you desire! Wish I took pics of everything but it was too good.. phone definitely did not eat first. If I could give more stars, I would!

So a gentleman that answered the rude as all hell!! I asked what there specials were and if they had cheeseburger and did it come with fries or chips or anything he " dude it's online" and hung up on me. I could not believe the rudeness from this man. Customer service was an all time fail with me. I have 17 years experience as a server and never have I once treated a customer like this. Unfortunately I live near by and have an infant and the time of night it was I had no choice but to call back and place an order! If there was somewhere closer I could run down to and get food at 11pm at night. BELIEVE ME I WOULD Have! This is the first and VERY LAST time I will be going there. I've heard such great things about this place but this experience I had killed it for me and my friends and family. None of us will be returning and I'll have to find somewhere else in the area to get late night food! You need to do better when hiring employees or train them to have respect for your customers!

Great experience mezcal drink was well done wings superb and date had cheesesteak special was also good . Friendly service chill atmosphere .

Stopped in on Saturday late in the afternoon with a large group of friends. Half of us ate at the bar and the other half grabbed a booth -- the bartenders were super friendly and efficient for both halves of the group! They have a large section of beers on tap and a fun cocktail menu, with several cocktails featuring aquafaba. The Pinball Wizard was my favorite! We split several apps and pizzas, including the double pepperoni and the pickle pizza. It took a bit longer than we expected for the pizzas to come out but they were devoured! Will be coming back to try more of the menu!

Never write reviews but this was so bad it's necessary. Kevin is a great bartender but after a mix up with my bill I was charged more someone else's tab. Not a big deal except the manager Im assuming she is.. told me I wasnt charged and I had to show her after she mocked me for questioning her seeing my personal bank info. I still was charged double. Still no refund

I always meant to come to this place while it was still the Asian fusion place and then one day I passed by it and it was "The Dive". It took me about 6 months, but we finally made it here and I am very glad that we did. First off, I think it's owned by the same people as Sally O's which has great food and great vibes. The Dive is a little more laid back but still super busy and seems to have a loyal following. We went on a Friday night and it was busy, but still had some open tables. We were there for an hour and only one table left, so it seems like a place that people hang out at. It had a lot of nostalgic 80's decor, which was cool, including table top video games. The food was a mixture of bar food and interesting stoner type concoctions, which were also super tasty! The staff was very attentive, and the prices were reasonable. Really the only complaint that I had is that it was really loud (much like Sally O's). We are excited to go back!

A wonderful and welcome addition to the neighborhood! Not unlike Sally O's, the Dive's space is a total vibe achieved. This time you may feel transported to a comfortable yet lively basement from the 70s/80s (and I mean this in the best way possible). Retro racing stripes run the blue walls and across the table tops. Purple booths line the exterior wall in the front room and there's even an arcade game table in the back room. We popped in recently and they were offering a limited cocktail and food menu and we were delighted with the offerings. Our favorite cocktail was the Pinball Wizard, a green melon ball gin fizz served with a colorful swizzle straw. The fried pickles were served with an addictive dipping sauce, maybe ranch with horseradish? SO GOOD. We also tried one of their signature 12" pizzas, the eggplant and sausage. The crust was perfection, chewy and crusty. I loved the fried eggplant on top. Looking forward to more good times, good vibes and good grub. Another hit from Jesse Pancakes Sandlin!

Huge fan of Sally O's and so happy to have this new establishment in the neighborhood. I could probably have had nothing to drink or eat, and been really happy with my water. The water glasses are SO fun, nostalgic, and really bring me back. But let's be real, that's not why we were there. We were a group of 5 and a really lovely group of 3 slid over to a 4 top to give us the round table in the corner (THANK YOU!). We ordered drinks and perhaps some tequila shots. The menu looked so awesome so we got a pizza to share because the combo was so tempting. The pickle pizza (dill pickles, tiger sauce, gavarti, fresh dill) hit the spot!! Don't sleep on it! I'm really interested in their The Munchies Sammie (white bread, potato chips, swiss cheese, cucumber, pickles, sriracha, peanut butter, and honey). Sounds weird as hell, but maybe my group of 5 will split that next time. Can't wait to come back. Also, apologies to the kitchen staff as we we may have been yelling into the kitchen about how great all the food looked! ha! Sorry and thank you!

I went to The Dive on a Saturday night with two friends. When we walked in it was pretty busy but we were immediately greeted and told that it would only be a 15 minute wait and could grab a drink from the bar and wait. We ended up getting seated within 5 minutes or so! The space itself was really cool. Well lit but definitely still maintains an upscale dive bar vibe. I ordered the pork roll sandwich with the French onion fries on the side! Everything was AMAZING. I will say, I wish I hadn't gotten the fries French onion style because the gravy made my sandwich a little soggy, but that's on me not the restaurant. Would suggest getting the fries on a separate plate if you do get that. The red death was also really good and not as dangerous as the name sounds haha. I also ordered a glass of wine that was really good! A good spot for a fun bar dinner, but would probably avoid going with a large group.

Whether it's the pizza, the wings, cheesesteaks, or really anything, their food is fantastic, and the cocktails are always good too! Service is always friendly at this cozy neighborhood bar/restaurant. Recommend upgrading to the disco fries

The Dive is exactly what you want in a local dive, reliable food, friendly bartenders who remember you when you come by, and low key, don't take yourself too seriously vibes that make it the perfect spot for anything from a date night to a catch up with friends. We've had just about the whole menu, but the pickle pizza is a show stopper.

This place has phenomenal food and great service. Ima trucker from Chicago and let me tell you this is some good food ima make sure to be coming back here

Love The Dive! Fun atmosphere with great food and drinks! It's a tiny space so try not to go with a huge group but absolutely no complaints other than that. Staff is insanely friendly and offers great recommendations. I would definitely recommend the pickle pizza if you're into that.

Best wings and pizza in Baltimore, great service, love watching Os here, great board game selection

Checked out the Dive last Friday night for a date night. The restaurant ambiance has a fun retro vibe - the booths, cups, and they playing old movies. The restaurant is the size of a normal corner bar in Baltimore - so it was full when we arrived at about 645. Bartender had great energy got us some drinks until we snagged two seats at the bar after about 10 min. I ordered the Pinball Wizard cocktail, really good a bit sour but still tasty. We ordered the special cheesesteak which was had a shawarma seasoning, cucumbers, red onion, feta with fries. Cheesesteak was delicious and juicy, the bread especially was perfect. The fries were good also, we ordered a side of ranch and the bologna mustard with them. Ranch was unique, had some extra flavor and the mustard was a perfect pairing with the fries. We also got the pickle pizza, recommended by the bartender - it was overall really good, my partner loved it. I enjoyed the tiger sauce on it the most. We both agreed the crust was particularly good. We finished with espresso martinis (they have a machine!). It was one of the best espresso martinis I have had in while! We will be back!
