The Most Scrumptious Dive Bars in Oklahoma City

The Barracuda

★★★★★ 4.8 (4)

"Love this place. Prompt service, friendly staff, classic bar feel to the place, and ultra low prices on drinks. I'll be coming back frequently."

Brewskeys

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (16)

""Dive" bar for sure but in a good way. Chairs had a wobble but were sturdy, tables were sticky but somehow clean (bad lacquer job I'm guessing). Came here to see a live band, "Above The Fray". Awesome band, people were dancing. Good variety of bottled beer and a few on tap. Full bar, pool, darts, sports on TV."

Bar Next Door

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (11)

"Love going here for a casual night with friends! It gives a dive bar feel, they have Dj's, pool, and darts. The little outside patio is a cute spot in the summer to check out too."

Good Times

★★★★☆ 4.1 (59)

"If you're in the mood for a divey/relaxed/not fancy at all bar then this is the place for you! It's a hole in the wall little place literally but had so much personality throughout! From the unique/funny prints on the wall to the quirky mixed drink menu this place won't let you down!Where else in OKC can you drink "rum punch" from a bag for $8 with a straw might I add! Which by the way... I had 2 of these drinks and they were definitely stronger than you realize. I suggest ordering one with a water. If you get the munchies this place also has every craving you could possibly imagine... can anyone say fried pickles?!When I ran to the restroom which was clean for a bar I might ad, I noticed the fabulous quaint little patio they had out behind... it was amazing. The bar staff was super attentive and awesome with recommendations. Every single employee was easy to talk to and just all around personable. I'd recommend this place to anyone who just wants to sit and enjoy some "good times" with good company might I add!"

Grady's 66 Pub

★★★★☆ 4 (12) • $

"Grady's Pub is a fantastic place to go in and drink. It's downtown Yukon so I can walk home after getting tanked. Beer, live music, smoke free, and a cockfighting ring in the basement, what more could you ask for?"

Lost Highway

★★★★☆ 4 (26) • $

"This is my local watering hole. Good prices, and even better tunes. Misty makes the best Bloody Mary in town. There's always a drink special going on, and depending on the night they have live shows, karaoke, and or a DJ. Whether or not something is going on it is just a cool place to chill and have a few beers/drinks. Parking in front is limited, but you can park across the street at Jimmy's Egg (when they are closed). Try not the park in front of the pizza place next door. Those peeps are turds about it."

Ledo Lounge

★★★★★ 5 (3)

"Quiet, understated place for cocktails -- a true piano bar.Very easy to find, too -- right off the highway.The Ledo is a pleasant little place to drop in for, uh, a libation or two when you just really, really don't want to bugger around with loud discotheques, smoky dive bars, and boot-scooting, wannabe cowboy joints.My favorite place in town for drinks!"

The Alibi

★☆☆☆☆ 1 (1)

"Unfortunately this bar over serves (the older bartender maybe mid 50's, NOT Morgan the younger one SHE'S great) and then subsequently protects the patrons that are over served after they are being belligerent - by instead asking other paying customers to leave the bar after said belligerent patron puts their hands on unsuspecting un-belligerent customers."

The Snug OKC

★★★★☆ 4.4 (7)

"Epic 21st Birthday Bash at The Snug OKC!We rolled into The Snug OKC for a 21st birthday, and let me tell you--this place did not disappoint! Spotless clean, vibin' atmosphere, and drinks that hit just right. Karaoke absolute blast. The whole night was a 10/10, and we'll definitely be back for more good times! Thanks Snug!"

Cookies On Western

★★★★☆ 4.2 (83) • $

"Needless to say, we had a BLAST at Cookies:https://www.instagram.com/reel/CvLoTglvR1Q/"

JJ's Alley

★★★★☆ 4.1 (88) • $

"Looking for a good time and a cheap drink in Bricktown? Look no further than JJ's. A true hidden gem amongst the other more glitzy, pricey, and touristy things in the area. It's a literal hole in the wall... I happened to notice it as I was walking down the street one day.I popped in midday on a weekday while visiting the area. The bartender was friendly. They don't have beer taps, but they do have a wide variety of local cans. The beer menu is hand printed on a piece of cardboard (and I would expect nothing else). Service was good, atmosphere was better, and for $12 for two local micro brews, I really enjoyed my time here. There's an eclectic mix of decor and a variety of patrons. I know they have live music here some nights too. I'll definitely visit JJ's again when I'm in the area."

Fat Bully's

★★★★★ 4.6 (106) • $

"Bad ass place to visit. Great burgers and awesome desserts! Bring cash is it's the king! Try the burger with Mac n cheese! The bomb! Cool place for bikers too!"

Cee Gee's Club

★★★★☆ 3.8 (6) • $$

"Had passed by many times and finally decided to stop in. Have been back several times since.Good "local working guy" bar with very friendly folks, good prices all around and a bit of fun.Juke box, dance floor, occasional live band, and pool tables. Can be smokey on the weekends, but all around, just a decent, relaxed locals bar meant for a good time.May seem nondscript, or even "scary" with it's cinder block facade, but we feel very welcome and comfortable."

The Ugly Flamingo At 3020

★★★★☆ 4.4 (7)

"A great neighborhood bar with a very laid back attitude. I came here a week after moving downtown and ended up chatting with the regulars and learned a lot about the community as well as where all the best food joints are. You'll meet all sorts of differnt folks from differnt walks of life. Ryann is awesome."

Montana Mining

★★★★☆ 3.7 (3)

"I love this place, they are so friendly and kind. They make the best drinks.The people that go in there are as friendly as they come. Great place to have a premium drink."

Tramps

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (35) • $$$

"Love this place. Great for a good time and great drinks. The people are ok i guess. lol"

Silver Stallion Club

★★★★☆ 3.6 (7) • $

"Dropped in and immediately was hit with a thick cigarette ashtray and smoke smell. I ordered a drink but left halfway through. Now I will need to wash my clothes and get a chest Xray."

Junction Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.7 (87) • $$

"Meh... .. but it's kind of hidden so gps should take you here. If I had to guess I would say this used to be either a pool hall or a pizza parlor. When you first walk in you do a double-take because you will walk into two pool tables and a jukebox machine making you think you are at a bar and then you see two pool tables and realize okay it might be a restaurant as well but don't let that discourage you if you are daring if you can try the food here. I should have read the recent reviews and they were not very convincing that I should have tried but I took the leap of faith and fell flat on my face.I ordered the Korean beef and the fried tofu was not a very good presentation everything comes in a to-go box not like the others pictures so they changed something. The tofu was okay if you are very hungry but the Korean barbecue beef I had two bites and it was like beef jerky like someone else reviewed. Only ate half of it and left. The ice tea is very good here at least and the owner/manager or wherever he is his kind of nice I guess. You can look at the pictures that I posted and you can pretty much see the experience you can expect here so yes, like other people said this isn't the best place to go but if you're hungry give it a try"

CW Scooters Bar

★★☆☆☆ 2.3 (4)

"Scooters is an other-worldly experience for those who aren't from Enid, or who have (graciously) moved away. It's smoked filled and full of hillbillies. Unless you are used to this environment, there is no way you can be prepared for what you might see. There might be people walking around with no shoes on, in wheel chairs, and old men without teeth. This is spectacular for people watching and later story telling.The crowd is "diverse," by Enid, OK standards. This is the only dance floor in the whole town, so everyone comes here. However, it's pretty segregated in the sense that ethnic groups keep to themselves and take turns using the dance floor. The dj will play country, and all the cowboys (white folks) will be out two-stepping. Then they'll play hip-hop and all the brown skinned people (and the wanna-bes) will come out. I've never seen anything like it! I'm an Enid native who left after high school. I come home every once and again to visit family, and will come here on occasion to remind myself how grateful I am to have broadened my horizons. :)P/S We came on a Saturday night, and they served 25 cent beers!"

The Bluebonnet Bar

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (19) • $

"As far as dive bars goes, this is a great place to go, hang out, and listen to some live music. There are quite a few tables, and when we visited, we took a table hoping that it wasn't a regular's spot. Everyone in the place was super friendly. Don't expect any table service here - order your drinks at the bar and make yourself comfortable. The bartenders were really friendly and welcoming too. It's always weird when you go into a place for the first time and don't know anyone and feel that "I'm outta place" vibe. But not here - I didn't feel that way at all. There is a nice back patio for warmer days and nights even in winter. Live music is an added bonus. And apparently you can count on a clean women's bathroom. I was told this was true, and it held up to it's reputation. Smoking is allowed inside, so be prepared if you're not a smoker or have issues breathing in second hand stuff. I'm somewhat sensitive to it, but I wasn't dying. The back door to the patio was open, and when it got too bad for me, I just stepped outside for some fresh air. I may have danced a little bit back there too...."

Frisco Bar

★★★★★ 4.5 (6)

"On my first visit I witnessed a highly amusing fight and was given a coupon for a free drink for the next time I visited. How can it get better than that?! Let me count the ways...1. Sell VODKA.2. Take credit cards.3. Sell VODKA.If you are the type of person that doesn't care about those three things, this place is for you. I sipped fat Coors in an official Frisco Bar koozie for a couple of hours in this old timey bar and had a great time. The bar is a single long and skinny room, with wooden floors and a few booths and tables lining the wall. There are great pictures and antiques lining the walls, and there was an acceptable live band there when we went. It's a little off the beaten path and full of regulars, but they are friendly to new people and don't mind us younger folks livening the place up a bit. If this place started selling liquor I would be a regular."

The Railhead Saloon

★★★★★ 4.5 (17) • $

"The Railhead Saloon may not seem like much, especially from the exterior as viewed from Sheridan Road. However, it is currently the best place in Lawton to see hard rock music performed live. And I do mean HARD rock music. Sometimes there's death metal bands, industrial bands and then a slew of other neo-punk style groups. Overall, prepare for some loud volume. I also like the place since they stock Fosters. Not too many bars feature that kind of "oil can" beer. You either have to visit that place or buy a steak over at Outback Steakhouse. Gotta deduct at least one star from an otherwise good review over the cigarette smoke. There's not much space inside the club. An open door seems to be the only ventilation. The lack of parking is another drawback. If a well publicized show happens you'll have to get their early for a parking space in the lot."

The Anchor

★★★★☆ 4.3 (3)

"Good times @ the anchor. Beer Bingo on Wednesday nights is alot of fun,& good bartenders. The ceiling is covered with old concert posters from the zoo amp. I like to go here at least once a week."

The Flea

★★★★☆ 3.9 (50) • $$

"The Flea is one of my new favorite watering holes in OKC!What is it? The Flea is just a super friendly dive bar with saloon-style snacks and lots of options for entertainment. With its great big juke box, pub games, and ample patio, it's a perfect spot for kicking back with your posse. It reminds me of a little gay bar in San Francisco that I visited once. Maybe it was the guys in flannel shirts under the soft light of Tiffany lamps. Maybe it was the thumping music mixed with the alluring smell of weiners. Or was it the mention of Cornhole? I can't quite put my finger on it...Anyway, we stumbled in on a Thursday night and were treated like regulars. The bartender gave us the 411 on The Flea and served up a couple of icy-cold local beers from a selection that was ample and varied. That Francie is a keeper, for sure. We felt right at home here and wish we could have stayed longer. On that night, we uttered words of thanksgiving that there were only grown adults in the joint. No frat boys, blecch! If I ever moved to OKC, I would be a regular at The Flea."

Edna's

★★★★☆ 3.9 (121) • $$

"Oh Edna's. How many nights have we danced to the sound of ice tea being stirred? Oh wait, I haven't had an Iced tea here... Just a bunch of lunch boxes or jolly rancher boxes. You've never heard of this place? Well, sit down Oklahomie and let me tell you about this too popular dive bar. It's seedy, overcrowded, busy AF, AND hellaciously fun with enough people. There are literally dollars falling off the ceiling and walls from all the drunk people trying to either put them on there or trying to make that extra dollar to purchase a box. What is a liquid lunch box? It's amaretto, OJ, and Coors lite amongst other things. So get to stepping with their juke box and try a drink or two. If you don't want to wait too long, then definitely go upstairs and order a quickie or two. They just don't open tabs there, and if you do open a tab... They take your card so make sure you close out and have your shiny plastic or heavy piece of metal before you leave."

The Mill

★★★★☆ 3.9 (10) • $

"Nothing especially great about this bar except they have shuffleboard, so that's pretty cool!"

Friends of Friends Neighborhood Bar

★★★★☆ 3.8 (12)

"We enjoyed the heck out of our Saturday night at Friends if Friends. A small cover paid for a live band and unlimited pool and Shuffleboard. Getting a drink at the bar was tough due to the crowd, but service was fast when it was our turn. People are extremely friendly to those open to having a good time."

The Side Bar

★★★★★ 4.8 (6)

"Great place for a drink. Beautiful bartenders that look like models yet they know how to make a mean drink."

Bunker Club

★★★★☆ 4.2 (57) • $$

"So this bar is nestled a couple doors down from Tower Theater. Tower let us check in and then go wandering, which brought us to The Bunker Club. We were not disappointed as it is great retro styled bar with comfortable bar chairs and booth seating. The decor, lighting and art is unique with some great touches. Also excellent music playing in background. Best thing was the prices and drinks were excellent, along with great service!! Definitely will be back! Thank you Bunker staff!"

Hilltop Hideaway

★★☆☆☆ 1.9 (7)

"The service was okay but some patrons were outwardly racist. They weren't being hostile but definitely spoiled the time we were there."

Tumbleweed Dancehall & Concert Venue

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (8) • $

"Cool place. We went when a bunch of local music artists were performing. Some of them were amazing. It was a good time!"

Grand Royale

★★★★★ 5 (2)

"Great bar and service. Cheap beer options and very good cocktails. Friendly and eclectic crowd with a variety of live music most nights."

Slick Willie's Family Pool Hall

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (23) • $

"It's fun for pool but it's extremely smoky inside. I like how they have a little area for air hockey and shooting hoops. There is a juke box inside and the server was nice!"

The Flycatcher Club

★★★★☆ 4.3 (27)

"Favorite dive bar in OKC. As an older millennial, I don't dare go after dark when it turns into a real bar, lol, but I love to go late afternoon which is that sweet spot time between meals. Their double cheeseburger and fries with a $2 beer is a true OKC treasure. They've added a salad to the menu and it's fantastic. They're happy to turn on the game as they have 4 TVs so you don't miss any of the sports action. One of the best burgers in town, hands down. May 2023"
