  New Bern has a dive bar. And one with a full bar and 38 beers on tap. How to find it? Look for the people outside smoking on Front Street. But this isn't your normal dive bar crowd. I think right now the average age is 55. Now, it's only 6:45 but Sly and the Family Stone are cranking on the jukebox, it's hopping, and I just might wind up drinking my dinner.
  
  Interesting note- around 8 pm, people left and by 10:30 the bar was catering to a younger crowd.

  Beside good bartenders and location downtown, this place could use a lot of sprucing up. I noticed they have painted and put some pictures up recently, but this place has a really icky feel. Starting from when you walk in the door, you are greeted with a strange smell. The floors are disgusting and the bathroom smells of sewer. I LOVE that they allow dogs... what I don't love is that they let the dogs walk around on the bar top. I know they are trying with the beer garden thing and live music, but most beer gardens I've been to have a seating area and shade. This is more of a make shift location on a piece of property.
  
  I pretty much try to avoid the place. It has potential, just clean it up.
