If you like dive bars, you haven't seen the best crowd Utah has to offer until you hit this place. There's nothing particularly special upon first walking in but the people are kind and funny, it looks like there's a decent amount of pool tournaments/open mics and performances, they serve beer with a smile on a great location! Glad these guys are around

Dog friendly!

A brilliant dive bar right where we need one in town. With excellent bartenders and karaoke on Thursdays.

It's a Salt Lake City staple for a reason! I brought my family here for dinner and wondered why I…read moredon't come here more often. It was the Monday during the holiday break after Christmas where no one is wanting to cook, so it seemed like everyone had the same idea of going out to eat. We had a party of 5 and waited at the bar for 15 minutes until our table was ready. Service was super friendly and wonderful. When we were seated, our server Sebastian was great. I forgot how much I love their garden burger patty and their garlic rosemary fries. They also have a spicy black bean option for the vegetarians/vegans. Obviously they have a ton of great options for the meat eaters primarily, I mean it's a burger bar how could they not. Needless to say, I won't be forgetting about this place ever again! Dice bar vibes on the inside, and in the summer they have a lovely patio too.

Lucky 13 is such a classic SLC spot and truly a must try!! They are a bar, so the whole party has…read moreto be 21+ and have IDs. We opted to sit outside cause it was a nice day. Their patio is great. Our server, Juan, was awesome. He checked on us just the right amount and was very knowledgeable on the menu!! For drinks, I got a Diet Coke (duh), and my husband got a beer. The Diet Coke came in a HUGE glass (as it should!!) and the brew was good. He got the rabbit foot brewing beach bunny and really enjoyed it. Juan let us know people have been loving this and that the owner of lucky 13 is involved with rabbit foot brewing. Love a local connection!! For food, I got the celestial burger and my husband got the ol man. Omg they were delicious!! They are on the pricier side, but the portions are BIG. Could def be shared. Their onion rings are amazing. I tried the rosemary garlic fries and they were delicious!! I would def recommended checking out lucky 13!!

I can't believe I'd never been here before after living in SLC for 10 years! Love love love this…read morevenue. It's small and intimate but not cramped at all. I love the historic feel of this place. There's seating!! If you get there early enough there's theater style seating in addition to the standing room space. I loved having the option to sit or stand. There are two bars - one upstairs and one downstairs. I never had to wait long for drinks and the service was great. They have some snacks as well. Parking is available in the paid lot next to the venue or along the street, but it can definitely be limited so be prepared for that.

Awesome venue! I loved the historic vibe of the place. It's smaller, intimate, but yet still roomy…read morethat we didn't feel on top of one another or overly crowded. We got to see Max Mcnown who without a doubt will be one of the next big stars in the coming years. The staff were friendly, the sound was great, and the place was clean. I'm certain when the lights are on you can really see its is in great shape, whereas other venues likely look awful when the lights turn on. The bathrooms were clean, the drinks were fairly priced. I would definitely come back and will keep an eye out for upcoming shows. Don't put your drinks on the stage, security is on it and will ask you to get it off right away. All good, my bad! Haha
