I went here with a group of friends and our bartender 'Billie Eilish' was less than welcoming. She acted like everything we asked for was a disservice to her or a major inconvenience. Considering we did like the drinks we planned to stay longer but the whole vibe just threw us off and we really didn't want to know what was wrong, but instead left after a couple rounds.
I was not greeted, and actually kind of scolded when I came in about having a minor with me. Minors are allowed until 6 but I was made to feel unwelcome. My food was wrong, substitutions were made that I was unaware of and I wasn't able to eat. I understand I am not the clientele this place is looking for, but I was just trying to enjoy some rare time getting out. That being said, the menu sound delicious and hopefully I will get to give them a second chance....alone.
Edit: We went again, and asked if they can make a cocktail (sex on the beach) and they said "I can but I'm not gonna." It's just juice and vodka? Immaculate vibes inside. Good music, and at an appropriate volume!? Great lighting, comfy booths. Great spot 10/10. Fiance's review: "Yummy dogs! Got hot dogs and cocktails and mmmmmm yummy they were so toisty 😈😜❤️"
After a bit of discussion about where to hang out Sunday evening we settled on the 5 and Dime and was completely satisfied with the decision Both the standard cocktails and mocktails were wonderful, and we had the rotating deviled eggs, which was very tasty I have to say that the service is really what made this place great. Smiling staff having a great time and something as simple as a big smile while taking away my empty glasses seemed like just a nice genuine interaction. I'll be making this a regular spot for sure
I feel so grateful that 5 & Dime is my neighborhood bar! I love the atmosphere of the bar inside. It's the perfect blend of dive bar meets cocktail bar, with an impressive food menu on top. Depending on when you go, it might be very chill and just to be FoPo locals hanging out, or some nights it's quite bustling and makes for great people watching. Their booths are amazing and comfortable, and perfect for meeting friends. Also they are dog and kid friendly! I like seeing so many kinds of people inside the bar, especially in the summertime when it's nice out and the patio is full. They also have a cute photo booth in the back! Their drink menu has excellent cocktails and they always update it. I love their seasonal rotation of different menu items too. And their daily specials for food and drinks!! It makes me keep wanting to come back just to see what they're gonna add next. I have been here dozens of times and I have never had a bad drink. Since I love cocktails that's usually what I get but I also enjoy their house wine and they have some nice and affordable beer options (check out their happy hour!) Also, y'all, I gotta discuss the food here. Honestly this is one of the most creative bar menus I've seen. From amazing hot dogs (so many coney options, I LOVE IT) to full on elevated special meals, I'm honestly so impressed that their seemingly small kitchen space can crank out such great meals, my compliments to their chefs as well. If you're looking for a quick food option, they also allow you to grab pizza from Atlas next door and eat it inside (there's a door inside connecting the two spots!) Speaking of the staff in general, I love all the bartenders I've met, as well as the servers/food runners and kitchen crew. For our wedding, we had our welcome dinner on their patio last summer and it was so nice! They helped us reserve tables and we set up a drink ticketing system for the guests, and we served pizza from Atlas next door. The 5&Dime crew was super accommodating and it ended up being a highlight of our wedding weekend for our guests. I low-key don't want everyone to know about 5&Dime because I want to be able to get a booth easily whenever I want, but also they deserve all the props so I had to leave this long overdue review. ❤️🍻 Definitely stop by this place if you're in the area!
