Dive bars are the best. There's nothing like finding that little hole in the wall spot where there are no frills, nothing fancy, the people aren't pretentious and the beer is cold, and cheap.

Those are a few of the important factors for me when finding a dive bar and apparently there is one spot in particular down in Denver that was named (according to Yelp) as the best dive bar in Colorado.

 

According to the research staff at Yelp, dive bars are defined as “typically well-worn bars that offer an inexpensive, simple selection of drinks and are often considered ‘hole-in-the-walls,’”

 

Yep, that pretty much sums it up real good. Yelp researchers and reviewers gathered up data from their travels and picked the best dive bar in each state and for Colorado, The Dive Inn was named as the best dive bar in the state.

The Dive Inn, located at 1380 South Broadway in Denver gets this honor for being the best dive bar in Colorado for a few reasons, check out some of the reviews for some of the things that were mentioned.

 

"Dive" as in nautical and clean bathrooms, nice bartenders, awesome games (like corn hole), and decent beverage selection.

 

The staff is so fun and friendly:) I'm greeted by name every time I stop in and I love hanging out in the boat! 

 

For the active, they have pool, foosball, ping pong, bags, and an assortment of classic arcade games.
