The Chat Room

I've lost track of how many times I've come here since my first visit in November 2022, and this place just keeps getting better. The drinks are always good, the staff is friendly, and the vibe from everyone here is unmatched. I am not a native Texan and I wasn't sure what to expect, but this bar has welcomed me with open arms, and I've even made some amazing friends along the way. Highly recommended.

If you're wanting to have an awesome time at a dive bar, The Chat Room is the place to go. Great drinks, the best customer service you'll find, and everyone is welcome. They have a pool table, computers you can use, Star Wars on a tiny, old TV, plenty of TVs to watch all the sports on, and card games to play. It's a friendly, welcoming place where you may end up spending way too much time.

What can I say about Chat? I have spent countless nights here soaking in the quintessential Texas dive bar vibes, from the Bo Derek calendar hanging on the side of the bar, the impressively cheap well drinks, the ancient workable computers along the side wall (it is the chat room after all), and the jukebox always blaring something great. This place is home, and a reminder of what Magnolia used to be. A Fort Worth must.

Soooooo I've been a frequenter on Magnolia for almost a decade now. We were hanging out at a new hot spot across the street when this place caught my eye. Out of PURE curiosity I forced my lover to visit the Chat Room with me. I was intrigued by the fact that I had never noticed the place, nor had I been there. I needed to cross it off my list!! Well its 100% what you would expect!! A super old, stinky, smoky, dark dive bar with basic domestic beer like Coors, Miller, Etc. Although it wasn't my style I thought it was pretty cool that there are some places that stay true to their roots instead of following the crowd like everyone else. No I wont be back but if you are the smoky, dark room, bad beer type - this is the place for you - I'm being serious!!!

Cool dive bar with a friendly atmosphere and dope staff. Happy hour was nicely priced and they have a June box. Outdoor and indoor seating too!

This is a hidden, or not so hidden, gem in the up and coming area of the Southside of Fort Worth. It's off Magnolia, so not super crowded, yet. However, it's been around for over a decade or close to two decades...geez that makes me old. It has maintained its "hipness", new word there created by moi! You must go and have a drink and tell my favorite owner and bartender "hello" from the biggest Unlikely Candidates fan in North Texas!You won't be disappointed in the ambiance or the people around you at the Chat Room.

The service was awful.. for being such a small place, there's no reason to have that bad of service. Would not recommend this place to just have a beer and watch a game.

Great dive for inexpensive drinks. Unpretentious atmosphere. No gimmicks, just drinks and a juke box that seems to never stop playing songs.

Nice little atmosphere. Went after work and relaxed played a little pool. Amazing happy hour specials throughout the week. Not the highest shelf liquors but I didn't go there expecting that. Great place to to chill and relax.

rude bartenders, didn't know what they were doing. When I tried to order they told me they didn't know what was in them... I asked for a green tea shot.
