Bambi Bar makes the list...

... of the top dive bars, according to Tasting Table:

Which could lead to a list of bars we miss in town.
Like Dutches. (Sigh)
Or Air Devil's Inn
And is The Left Field Lounge still around?

How does one become the "top" "dive" bar? Doesn't being the best at being the worst kind of negate itself? Or has the concept of a "dive" bar completely changed with the generations. Has "dive" become an art form? Is this a hipster thing?

Bambi Bar certainly is a local institution, though, so good on them for getting some recognition!

Air Devil's Inn
And is The Left Field Lounge still around?

Both of these are operating (and qualify as dive bars.......)
