NYC's Best Dive Bars

Lakeside Lounge, 162 Avenue B Lakeside Lounge, outfitted with some random tables and chairs that look like they may have been picked up off the street by the owners, may not be the most aesthetically pleasing, but it is always a good time. Drinks are cheap, and most importantly, it has one of the city's best jukeboxes, replete with classics from Bo Diddley to Sam Cooke to Little Richard to the Kinks. Certain nights they have live bands, and there is a photobooth so you can keep the moment forever.
