Dive bars/Taverns

[MeatMan]

Has anyone ever stepped into this bar. To most who don't know, it's located in Bellingham Sq. I may TOFTT tonight or sometime this week.

Interesting thread.

I've been to the Tam a few times. It seems no different than any other dive bar. Low prices, most patrons are male. I've also been next door at the Intermission Tavern, which is a little cleaner, but still a dive. The crowd seemed a little older, but basically the same. At the Intermission, I overheard one guy telling his friend from out-of-town all about the old Combat Zone, and that the Intermission used to be a strip club.

I'm wild about hispanic girls, and so I've taken a few trips to east boston after I read Meat Man's post about potentially finding latinas at Eddie C's. In two visits, I saw a lot of weirdos and not a lot of women. I didn't see any females customers who were attractive, though there was one who I think was a waitress that looked pretty good.

I've also explored some of the other bars around East Boston. There's quite a few Colombian bars. Spanish language music, all hispanic staff / customers. They seem to get filled to medium capacity, with mostly men. I've seen a few women in the crowd but always accompanied by a husband / boyfriend. The bartenders and waitresses at these bars are all beautiful women. I have a hunch that at one place, the waitresses might be 'available. ' Since it's nothing more than a hunch, I'll keep the name off the board, but you can PM me for more details if you want.

Though the crowd is largely male at most of the Colombian bars, I did find a few of places which seem to bring in a fair number of attractive females. It seems like the girls show up later. About 15 minutes past midnight is when I notice groups of females patrons entering. The best one seemed to be Cosmopolitan Lounge on Bennington. It's a dive bar disguised as a swanky club. I guess the neons and fancier looking countertop make all the difference, because I saw a good number of women there even before midnight. Actually, there were more women than men on my last visit! I think they are all just civilians, but it might be a good place to go if you have some pick-up skills.

Just my .02, it's a real dive with locals that are local I mean wacked out.

Most of the Dive Bars are gone out of downtown. Around the W Hotel in the theatre district there were some street hoes ready to do whatever for minimal cash. But they were all nasty as hell.

I've tried a few of the dive bars in downtown Brockton without much luck. You'll see an occasional hottie hanging outside one of them, but on the 3 occasions it has been a complete sausage fest.

Generally there are many more guys at these places.

Dos amigos in Waltham, there use to be a lot of working ones there, 96% latinas, good looking too. I used to go there on weekends, I heard this place was closed cause someone rat them out to the local police, I'm not sure if it still open. I was succesful there on many occasions. Great place for pick ups. The good thing about it, most of them have their own cars, they will follow you and you don't even have to bring them back. Somewhere close to Moody St.

Its still there after almost 40 years, Sully's Tap on Canal Street.

A hole in the wall Dive Bar, right across from the Garden. Who would have guessed that there is a new Garden and Sully's is still the same it was when I found it before a Knicks-celtics game back in 1971.

Its about the width of a doorway and runs the whole block, Canal Street on one entrance, Friends St. on the other.

I stopped by a Bar on Tremont St in the theatre district called the Tam. It was definately a dive bar. Cash only, no door on the mens room, a slightly weird smell and they said they open at 8 am. Not many bars like this left in Boston. There was a mixed crowd. Some college kids, some working professionals, and some people who looked like they just left a homeless shelter. Did not see any working girls though.

back when the combat zone was still in its heyday the Tam was the place to pick-up the working girls. They would do some walking and then hang out there. had some great tail out of there back in the day!

Went to Eddie C's to check the surroundings. While there brought a beer, watch some college hoops, and scanned the area looking for potentials. There were only Three. The two I saw were haggardly and at the end of they're rope.

I did chat up one of the ladies there. Passable, Pretty friendly, but she was with a "friend" of hers. Didn't want to cock-block. I don't roll that way. Went home unsuccessful, but I will try either tomorrow or Saturday.

Got a tip from a friend that there are a LOT of Latinas there on weekends looking for potential dates. The end of the month is coming is more likely the reason.

A friend of mine introduced me to a bar called Biddeys on Pearl St near the financial district. I never even knew it was there because well there was no sign and its pretty much out of the way. Just some steps and a light in the window. Walked in and there was darts, cigarette machine, a few hightop tables and the bar. They have $1. 50 pbr drafts which is one of the lowest prices I've seen in Boston. Its right after a place called VIGA. I was there for about 2 hours and it seemed like a good spot.

As one who is always on the prowl for a good dive bar, this one certainly fits the bill. It's right in Maverick Square. As for hooking up with a girl there, I'd say there is a good chance given the clientele.

I'm talking about now guys, not the days of old!

How about ,"The Blue Note". way up in Lynn? I am sure that is still there. I know it is a bit away from Bean Town, but still? My EX used to hook there. It is, or was next to Smugglers Pub.
