2 late-night dives in Chattanooga our editors have drunk at, sorted by score. All Chattanooga nightlife.
Pickle Barrel ★ 4.2
downtown · 1012 Market Street, Chattanooga, TN 37402
Pickle Barrel is the Chattanooga dive of record, a flatiron wedge on Market Street pouring until 03:00 nightly with a roof deck over the downtown grid.
Tip: Strictly 21 and over at all times. The wedge-shaped roof deck is the best people-watching perch downtown.
The Bitter Alibi ★ 4.5
mlk · 825 Houston Street, Chattanooga, TN 37403
The Bitter Alibi keeps three floors of house-party dive comfort going until midnight on Houston Street, Chattanooga's after-work clubhouse of choice.
Tip: The third floor hosts the Dilemma cocktail bar, Thursday to Sunday from 18:00; the porch is the best seat in the house.
