Dallas

Honky-tonk graffiti, corndogs, and dog-friendly yards

Dallas dives span a pitch-black nautical hideaway in the Bar Hall of Fame, a graffiti-covered Deep Ellum honky-tonk, and a ramshackle Cedars yard strung with lights. Cheap cold beer and zero polish.

This month's dive

Ships Lounge

A pitch-black, nautical-themed hole-in-the-wall open since 1947 and in the Dallas Bar Hall of Fame. A padded bar front, a lone pool table, and stiff cheap pours — the quintessential Dallas dive.
