"Dallas stands as one of the largest and most visited cities in the Southern United States. It may be famous for its succulent steak and Tex-Mex dishes, but it also boasts a vibrant and eclectic nightlife and drinking culture, especially in neighborhoods like Lower Greenville, Deep Ellum, and Bishop Arts. Fun fact: The frozen margarita machine was invented in that popular Texas destination in 1971."
"Dive bars, for one, are a fun option for budget-conscious customers hailing of all drinking ages. We're not talking about run-down holes-in-the-wall with rowdy crowds, but friendly and welcoming joints with ice-cold brews and regular offers and events. They're the kind of places "where everybody knows your name" and where you can unwind over quality bites and drinks - and leave some markings on the wall for posterity."
"Established in 2014, The Ivy prides itself on offering "strong pours, cold beers, friendly service, and a patio that feels like Dallas' backyard." That claim was confirmed when it won the Dallas Observer's Best of Dallas 2025 Award for Best Dive Bar, which it partly owes to its dynamic weekly program. Indeed, this is the place to be on Lemmon Avenue to enjoy happy hour on weekdays, Trivia Mondays, Karaoke Wednesdays,"
