The Best Dive Bars In Atlanta - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"The Howell Mill area has undergone a makeover corresponding with its still-questionable rebranding as Atlanta’s Upper Westside. But when we want to drink with people who keep cash under their mattress, we swing by Mr. C's. The place is instantly recognizable from their sign that offers hilarious life advice such as, “Carrots improve your vision, but alcohol doubles it.” This tiny wood paneled bar has regulars that have been coming here for decades, but newbies will still feel at home here, too. A lone pool table sits among high top tables across from the bar, and a jukebox jams out songs that are as varied as the clientele. Here, the most popular drink order is one more—their sign truly doesn’t lie." - juli horsford
