This small bar has been loved by locals for many years. It's not usually the kind of place we go to…read morebut for us, it's a place with memories. My husband's grandfather used to come here often since it was just across the street from where he lived. My husband had been here with him before but my first visit was when we came to town for his grandfather's funeral. A few family members stopped by the bar afterward as a tribute to him. We haven't had many chances to visit Ford City since both of his grandparents passed away. This time, we were visiting our uncle in Kittanning so we decided to stop by to grab our favorite hot sausage. It was around lunchtime and the barstools were already filled with locals. We got our hot sausage and my husband enjoyed a beer with it while we talked about his grandpa and shared some memories. It was a simple visit but a meaningful one. We'd love to stop by again the next time we're in the area.

A hillbilly guy at the bar says "Looks like the short bus just got here " Should of punched him in his face but had a cane so kinda felt bad . Now another girl served us and she did great. One cook, poor guy, but he did great. Made up for the rude entrance. Do they want business or not? Wings are small wing dings, thought they would be whole wings. Burger meat is eh. So I don't know if we will go back, it's 50/50.

There are…read moreholiday parties and karaoke days, and sometimes if you're lucky enough you'll show up during someone's birthday. The drinks aren't anything tropical or fancy, nothing like margaritas or martinis, but definitely the place to get your shots of whiskey and a beer or two while you listen to people telling work stories and drinking tales. (Although, there are white claws and Seagrams for the fruit drink lovers.) The food is something different. They have a secret wing seasoning that makes the wings to die for, and it's even better if you ask for fries with that same seasoning on it. Anytime I'm home I make it a point to go here because I've never met a place that sold better tasting wings or fries.

Service was great and the bartender did a fantastic job taking care of everyone at the bar. The chicken wings were great and cooked perfectly. The best part of the night was this phenomenal "Thai Beef" salad! It was very different than any salad I've had before, and I love that this place offers some diverse dishes on their menu. The beef was soooo delicious and genuinely cooked to perfection. If you're looking to mix it up, 100% try that salad--you will NOT be disappointed! Thank you Dive Bar & Grille for a fun night :)

I was in the area and decided to check it out. I appreciate a smoking bar that isn't a big cloud of smoke. Well ventilated so that is always a plus.
