We never have a bad time
It’s statistically impossible to have a bad time at a dive bar with us. So if you need some happiness in your life, you should definitely join us.
Did we mention fun?
Dive Bar of the Month is designed with only two purposes in mind: to bring like minded Dive Bar lovers together and to have fun. We succeed on both of those goals.

Thanks to everyone who made it out to the Little Club last month!
Because of Thanksgiving, we will meet a week later than normal this month.
But the wait will be worth it.
For the 12th bar on our Lucky 13 Dive Bar Tour, we are headed to the Cherrybomb.
The Cherrybomb is located in the elbow of a strip mall in Bankers Hill. It’s dark, it’s loud. It has a pool table, a pinball game, and an old-school jukebox with CDs on it. There’s random and wonderful clutter behind the bar (including the ponytail from a bartender who worked there years ago.)
They are CASH ONLY (the Johnny Cash sign will remind you of that!) They offer a full bar, and they pour strong drinks. Nothing fancy, like a Dive Bar should be.
They don’t serve food. Hob Nob Hill restaurant is on the same block. And there is a Mexican restaurant in the strip mall. Want to be super-efficient? There is a laundromat next door to the bar. Do your laundry AND enjoy Dive Bar at the same time!
Looking forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday, November 29th, starting at 5:00 p.m.
IMPORTANT INFO:
The Cherrybomb is CASH ONLY. There is an ATM in the bar in case you forget your cash.
FOOD: They don’t serve food, but there are a couple of places nearby to eat or bring food in.
PARKING: There is a small parking lot in the strip mall; otherwise, everything is street parking. Be safe and take a ride share.
T-SHIRTS: We have opened up sales of the Dive Bar Tour t-shirts again. If you’re interested in getting one, Venmo is the way to go. Shirts are $25 (add $4 if you want your shirt mailed to you.) Let us know what style you want (men’s or women’s) and what size. VENMO: @Divebarofthemonth
Some of our recent bars
It’s a tradition to get our bartenders to hold our sign. Here’s where we’ve recently been.
We’re always open to hearing about bars we haven’t visited. Drop us a line if there is someplace you think we should check out.
