This place is owned by the same people who own Armsby Abbey and this essentially a more relaxed, casual version of it. Say goodbye to the wooden accents and instead say hello to a cash-only, spot with a giant outdoor patio. The craft beer selection is still absolutely amazing and they have four or five permanent Hill Farmstead beers available on draft. They frequently rotate their beers and often have some highly sought after ones, again, much like Armsby Abbey. Overall, its all solid and they also have a full bar in case you want a mixed drink. The staff is friendly and while the indoor area gets cramped due to its limited size, theres still plenty of space outside. They actually are incredibly smart and make great use of that space. During the warmer months, theyll project movies out there which is neat. Overall, there is nothing divey about this spot and the craft beer selection is nearly unrivaled. Its one of the best tap lists in the state! The owners are fantastic individuals who make great use of their space and its definitely a great spot to hit up during the warmer months. That being said, the cash-only thing really stinks, especially in this day and age and the food options are non-existent as well. I personally much prefer Armsby Abbey but this is a nice alternative as well and very laid back which is nice.

Hope you know what you want. Ive been to about 157 breweries. Ive also been to half as many beer bars, but this one is the first Ive encountered that offers its beer list with brewery and beer name only. Youre on your own to know what style they are. Should you take your chance and just order something then you may end up with a saison or gose or something you werent expecting. The bar itself is dark and frankly lovely (just what I want in a dive bar). The back yard is HUGE and unexpected. Just wish the menu was more explicit.

Rotating assortment of fantastic American craft beers. Cash only. Bathrooms have kind of a stabby vibe but have exceptional graffiti. They have live music every so often. The beer garden is incredible in the summer, and if youd rather sit inside they always have an interesting movie playing on the bar TV. They started serving food recently, I havent tried it yet. Best dive bar around.

The Dive has 16 rotating specialty taps, 1 cask, and over 70 specialty bottles. No mass market beers here. A 2600 sq ft outdoor Belgian Style Beer Garden is underway as is a full kitchen! Great place to chill. Music is always bluesy funky eclectic and bartenders know their beers! Alec...thank you! You have made Worcester a better place!

Great craft beer selections only - trilliums, hill farmstead, fiddleheads... This might seem like a dive bar, but its not your regular dive spot. Live music in the back garden some nights, with a stationary food truck, Mama Roux (cajun food) on Thur - Sat (starting summer of 2017). BYOF.

An aweseome selection of drafts and bottles, including a lot of interesting Belgian ales of all types and local microbrews. The fellow I spoke to (owner?) was very knowledgeable. What a find! Ive been out of Worcester for years, but this is worth going back to.

This place is legit! Craft beer focused, killer live music and great staff! The outdoor beer garden is hands down the best outdoor drinking in Massachusetts! Reminds me of zeitgeist in San Fran only cooler.

Outdoor bar out back is pretty killer if you can grab a table. Very balanced and different beer selections and a good place to hang out after meeting with you local Hibernians.

Small inside bar area and large outdoor sitting/drinking area with tables, chairs and lights. Doesnt look like much from the outside- youll be pleasantly surprised.

Great little bar, earning its "Dive" name in more ways than one. Always an awesome selection of good beer on tap. No macrospew here. Cash only. No food.

Cozy little bar with a nice beer garden area out back, and a great beer selection for those interested in IPAs and sours from Hill Farmstead and more.

Definitely not a dive bar. Honestly they have a nice selection of craft beer but no as the Germans say beer beer.

Hill farmstead on tap at all times is unheard of in Massachusetts. Dark, dingy and perfect
