    Stumbled into this dive bar (I don't go to dive bars very often), but this place is awesome. I'm not sure if the lady's name that was bartending but she was soooo friendly and upbeat! There's a juke box that you can connect to your phone to play your own music which is awesome. I did find the prices to be on the higher end. I think I got 4 drinks total, and with the tip it came out to around $75. A bit pricey for a divey type bar in my honest opinion, but we loved the vibes from the server enough to wanna come back. Great corner dive bar in East Lakeview!

    This looks like piss

    Bartender was an absolute asshole. Ordered a martini and was explicit for NO VERMOUTH. This is what I got. He fucked me over on purpose because I'm not a regular. Been to Jacqueline's lots but am done. They hate outsiders dipping in off the street and only treat regulars well. Fuck this place.

    So I was in town for a meeting and just walked into this cute little dive bar because I didn't have anything else to do . I had the best time talking with the bartender and the regulars. The red wine was French and surprisingly delicious for such a divey place. The mezcal margarita was delicious!! I felt safe and had fun being there alone . They do not mess around with Covid and need to see a vaccination card to let you hang out there.

    Unfriendly place. There is very little this place has to offer. Not to be negative, just honest. Go elsewhere.

    Only giving two stars because of the lovely bartender that served us (didn't catch their name)…read more There was however, another bartender (blonde) that seemed to have some issue with my friend and I being in the bar. We came in around 1:15am, thinking this would be a cool bar to end the night. The first bartender informed us that last call was approaching. We only wanted one round, so we immediately closed out after ordering. That bartender was very attentive and pleasant during the entire transaction. At 1:50am, the other bartender (who wasn't even serving us/hadn't spoke to us) came over and said we needed to start chugging. Her words: "I'm not going to tell you to get the f* out, but you need to chug". She kept telling us we needed to chug, and I kindly told her I wasn't chugging anything because we already paid and I can literally just leave. She brought up the bar closing soon (we already heard the very loud announcement for last call). She proceeded to blame it on having a bad day. Mind you, someone next to me literally just came in, and was being served. She tried to back out of it and kept repeating we'll know when it's time to go. I'm not sure what kind of establishment this is, but she didn't say anything to anyone else but us, the only two Black women at the bar at the time. I don't understand why she felt like it was okay to direct her "bad day" at us, sitting there calmly with two half drunken beers, while there were plenty of other people still up and active at the bar. The behavior displayed, completely unacceptable.

Ten Cat Tavern is pretty divey while being pretty nice at the same time. Kind of has a quiet coolness to it. Lots of cheap drinks and some more expensive stuff as well. As for the drinks it's mostly basic. It's about $6 for a cocktail. The cheapest ones include some pretty cheap whiskey. Also they have cheap cans of PBR. Seems like most people here are drinking beer, and these mostly are in bottles and cans like how a dive bar should. Also has a couple pool tables that somehow fit. The bar is pretty small but the coziness makes it charming though. Pretty clean. The place is dim so it's hard to know for sure. Got to mention for those who couldn't tell by the name that it's also pet friendly. It's usually dogs in here ironically. There's also a jukebox with a good collection of songs, and a few TVs for watching games or things.

I shouldn't be unkind: one of the bar tenders was attentive. The other just stared straight in my friend's face and said "huh?" when she ordered her drink, then vaped in front of us, and took a photo shoot. I've never seen an entire clientele try to be located so far from the bar in my life. Can't possibly be helping the bottom line when no one wants to congregate in the very place you're supposed to be making money.
