Best of Metromix Palm Springs 2012Dive Bar

What can we say? Dives are where we feel most at home. Screw high art and ambience. At the end of a long day, a stiff drink in a dimly-lit room where we can hear some decent songs on a juke box is exactly what the doctor ordered. Vote for your favorite dive bar in the Coachella Valley. If you think we left out a deserving nominee, let us hear about it!
