I love dive bars!!! And this is what I call a perfect dive bar. The outside area & patio are awesome when the weather is nice too!
My motto is "Nothing good ever happens at big star". Yet I find myself there constantly
Friendly staff, helped to manage/keep eyes on someone who was lurking around my friends & I. Very good about enforcing masks, no one was aloud inside when I visited except to use the bathroom. The backyard is huge with fun lights. Great late night dive.
Ah, Big Star bar—the rightful king of dive bars. This is one of my favorite bars in the city. It's got all the charm and atmosphere of a dive without being dirty or rundown. Retro interior touches with neon lights, arcade machines, and an old pool table are great, and the outdoor area in the back is spacious yet cozy.
Don't get me started on how great the prices are. Riddle me this: how did a friend and I go last weekend and have two Johnnie Walker Blacks, four beers, and a shot of whisky for $25? Because Big Star, that's why.
Love the staff, too, and of course, the mascot and patron saint of the bar, the beloved cat, Ting Ting.
I had a brother come into town and he asked me to go back here. The bill was appropriate.
