This is where hipsters that say they like dive bars are truly tested. This is a fantastic dive of terrible bass based music pumping as you play pinball and sip Miller Lites. Frowny faced bar tenders add character and make you feel like youve made at least a few right decisions in your life. The wood panelling on the walls match the raw wood bar, chairs, stools, and tables and compliment the cock-inspired motif. If the giant neon rooster on the outside wasnt enough for you, they hammer the theme home by being the only place this side of Kentucky that has decided upon chicken wallpaper. Its a true gem among piles of hippie head shops and ping pong tournaments.

I an not the biggest fan of this place. I have been there a few times now and have yet to actually enjoy it. Female friends have been grabbed, the bartender told me he didnt want to make my drink so order something else (I ordered a black and tan...), and someone threw a plastic dart at me and called me a dirty ginger. Totally not kidding. At least the last one was taken care of by the bouncer.

Local-est of local dive bars in Ithaca (Close second is Uncle Joes). The beer prices are actually really good! Selection is decent. When its quiet, its a cool bar. Can get a little rowdy when some of the locals file in. Try to avoid using the bathroom here.

An incongruously well lit dive bar. Pool, darts, TV, and booze. This place hasnt changed in at least 30 years. If it werent for Herman the bartender it wouldnt get nearly as many stars.

Its a dive. But sometimes they have music upstairs. And its always attracting an interesting mix of people.... When theres more than one person in there.

Crazy high prices (to be expected in downtown Ithaca commons), friendly staff and a great location for Pokemon Go!

Could be a great bar but it smells here and everyone knows. Do something about. Could be the best in the city.

How do I describe Chanticleer? An effervescent atmosphere teeming with the aroma of fine hops and human sweat.

Great local bar with good beer selections. Divey but not too divey. Locals frequent for sure.

A real bar, laid back, old school. What you see, is what you get. Cheers!
