DC dive bars

Had a good talk last about DC dive bars. Made me think about RECESSIONS! Remember when we used to go to Recession? Or rather, when we went to Recessions like three times? It appears to still be open and I think we should go back again soon to drink beers the size of our faces. But not on karaoke night.

Other dive bars I used to go to a lot and haven’t been to in forever: the Raven (which according to Annie now has flat-screen TVs? That’s terrible), Stetson’s (this counts, right? Catherine says rats (MULTIPLE RATS!) ran over her foot there, which I think qualifies it), The Big Hunt (gross).

In my extensive research for this article (read: 7:45am Googling) I came across several totally bullshit list of DC dive bars. Like this one that includes the Red Derby, decidedly NOT a dive bar (they serve BRUNCH, for God’s sake), or this one that includes Galaxy Hut (???). I also don’t think it’s legit to include Solly’s. No place that serves fish tacos can possibly be a dive bar.
