SHENANIGAN'S STAYS ON DIVE BARS LISTS

Shenanigan's shows up pretty regularly on lists of dive bars. Just two weeks ago, it came in at #9 on web magazine Brokelyn's list of "The 18 best dive bars in Brooklyn." Isn't it reassuring to know that its reputation is intact?

Author Tom Sullivan describes a dive bar as "a place that should have cheap beer, yes, but also decent service and some sense of being permanently etched into the landscape." While he doesn't mention cheap beer, he does point out the "$2 drinks during happy hour" and the allure of karaoke on Saturday nights.
