I walk by there just about every morning. Always something to see. I've even caught VOR sneaking in there at 7 am during the week.

Speaking of mid city I'll give red door a vote. I'm about halfway through my shot card before I get a free tshirt.

No, why do a lot of cabbies hang out there?

I don't think it so much is anymore, but yeah, it was always sort of considered the cabbies bar.

I used to live at esplanade at city park so it was an easy bar to go to. Seemed more of a 30s type crowd IMO.

Not a dive, imo. Not even close. Pretty good little place. No smoking. Decent beer on tap and in can. Good cocktails. Good food.

No one mention The Saint yet? Outside of late night dance parties, that place is a Grade-A shithole.

Have to mention Nicks if were bringing up places that are gone.

I'd add 45 Tchoup to the list.

I usually pass Last Call (806 Conti) on my way to mass. I'm no stranger to sketch bars, but I'd doubt I'd ever step place into this bar. At 9 on Sunday mornings, I usually see several busted strippers with their pimps/clients. Has anyone been in there?

Several other dives around there are 3 Legged Dog and Deja Vu.

Parasol's. Surprised that one hasn't been mentioned.

Eta: this has been a great thread. Bookmarked.
