The Grapevine Bar is a beloved neighborhood dive that’s been around since 1996. From prom queens to drag queens, everyone is welcome!


The Grapevine has been voted “Best Dive Bar”, “Best Straight Bar”, “Best Gay Bar”,“Best Happy Hour”, and more.


Sometimes you want a $3 PBR, sometimes you want a bottle of Dom…we’ve got you. Old favorites like Jack Daniels to the “new hotness”, our liquor supply keeps it easy like Sunday morning. The frozen drinks are served in quirky, mismatched glasses, just like our patrons. Want something off the secret, naughty list? Just ask!


Take the above frozens, put in a glass, lots of booze and enjoy the ultimate brain freeze.

If a pomegranate had a really boozy, frozen baby, it would be the Pom Pom.

Support your local brewers! Everything is better in Texas including the beer. Six cold Texas beers on tap every day. Plus an ever-rotating selection of beers in cans.

Community and friends - The Grapevine is more than just "a bar" to many people. Our community is one of inclusion and friendship, and we support each other through it all. We've hosted weddings, fundraisers, charity events, celebrity book signings, and just every day good people looking for a good time.

Denise Vanderheiden had just moved to Dallas from West Virgina and my roommate at the time Joe O’Rourke were hangiong out at the bar in 1996. Denise called me after I got home from IL Sorrento and I was watching reruns of “The Golden Girls”. She said there are alot of “your” kind here…so I went and met alot of fun people and I was a fixture almosst everynight from 1996-2001. Great fun times and blew alot of hard earned money. Wish I could do it all over again….I visit The Grapevine everytime I am in Dallas..Congrats to the Grapevine for great memories… – Wayne Mills

Dive bars don’t happen by design. There’s no script or blueprint. They’re unimpressed with plans. Usually they have odd touches of character in both people and furnishings that just fall into place. Over time, they evolve into a retreat where we yearn to wet our whistles. The Grapevine Bar...

A cauldron of soon-to-be bellinis churns with Everclear in the slush machine. It’s not quite frozen; it needs about 15 more minutes. It’s just after 3 p.m. at The Grapevine. The bar is nearly empty, with a few regulars milling around, but it only opened a few minutes ago. The...
