All of the Bars Guy Fieri Visited in Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives

Guy Fieri and his backwards sunglasses have traveled all over this great country of ours, eating all the cheese fries and dictionary-sized sandwiches that it has to offer. Along with all the beach shacks, barbecue joints and greasy spoons, Fieri has also put his stamp of approval on quite a few bars. And if there’s any time you want the type of food Mr. Fieri deems so good you can eat it off a flip-flop, it’s after you’ve had a few drinks. Here are all the bars that have so far appeared on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives that you can go to.

Jefferson, LA
You can count on a full range of Abita beers on tap at The Rivershack. Pair your Louisiana brew with some creole food like an alligator po’boy.

Columbus, OH
The awning on this dive bar might say Cafe Bourbon Street, but look a little lower and you’ll see a small sign for Pierogi Mountain. After having a few drinks, order a platter of pierogis. The doughy dumplings come in out-there flavors like cheese pizza, wasabi potato, and apricot and thyme.

Norfolk, VA
The beer menu is stocked with local brews and the food menu is all about wings, which come in flavors like Cajun buffalo, sweet curry heat and pineapple habanero. The heat levels go from mild all the way up to dumb dumb.

Charlotte, NC
This craft brewery brews up a wide range of styles from English-style porters to ales brewed with local honey—and they also have a curated cocktail program and over 100 whiskeys for the non-beer drinkers. The food menu is eclectic but you can’t go wrong with a burger (topped with bacon jam, goat cheese and roasted tomatoes) or sliders served on fresh focaccia.

Rocky Hill, NJ
This gastropub is known for its impressive draught beer list, its selection of Martinis (like the Italian Martini made with vodka, amaretto, Licor 43 and pineapple juice) and, most of all, its elevated disco fries, which come topped with your choice of pork belly, braised short ribs or chorizo.

Annapolis, MD
You’ll feel like a local at this neighborhood standby. Get a beer on draught (opt for a local brew) and snack away on crab balls—mini crab cakes.

San Francisco, CA
This San Fran institution is famed for its giant sandwiches (Fieri likes the corned beef) as well as a large selection of beers from around the world. There are also specialty cocktails like Irish Coffee and Rum Punch.

Minneapolis, MN
This massive beer hall offers tours of the on-premise brewery, tons of beers on tap and seriously good food. There’s a newly opened pizza parlor upstairs, as well as a beer-friendly food menu downstairs featuring things like duck pastrami, venison hot links and homemade wasabi beer nuts.

Coral Gables, FL
Miami isn’t all Mojitos and Cubanos. This spot offers a rotating selection of beers on tap, as well as a menu of cocktails like the Fortune Cookie Old Fashioned (made with actual fortune cookie syrup) and the No Seas Boba (a boozy boba cocktail). The food leans towards Southern, with dishes like hushpuppies and buttermilk dumplings.

Miami, FL
Soak up stein after stein of German-style ale along with dishes like pork knuckles and sausage platters. You can also watch European soccer matches here.

Islamorada, FL
This spot in the Florida Keys features a menu of draught beers, as well as a selection of organic and sustainably produced wines. When it comes to food, take a tip from Fieri and go right for the house made pork rinds.

Syracuse, NY
This brewpub is a farm-to-table dream come true. The menu features vegetables and herbs grown in the brewery’s garden, local beef, and beers made with the brewery’s own hops and honey.

Richmond, VA
This local favorite has been around since 1966. Frequented by VCU students, the bar pours local beers and shakes up tall, signature cocktails. Per Fieri, the PBR-battered onion rings are the must-order snack.

Key Largo, FL
There’s a glass-bottomed bar at this waterfront destination. Watch the fish swim by as you sip on a giant, Corona-topped Beergarita and nosh on conch fritters.

Plymouth, MA
Escape the cold Northeast at this Caribbean bar with tropical drinks like Mango Mai Tais, Charred Pineapple Mojitos and Hibiscus Margaritas. Even the Picklebacks are tropical—spiced rum takes the place of the usual whiskey, with pickled pineapple juice as a chaser. As far as bar eats go, the banana garlic wings are the name of the game.

Minneapolis, MN
According to Food Network, the owners of this pub first attracted investors by offering free beer for life to anyone who gave $1,000. It worked. Now, the bar serves their own beers like the Smokehouse Porter and the Block Heater Barley Wine, as well as foods like beet hummus, poutine and, Fieri’s favorite, an 18-hour “porketta” sandwich.

Philadelphia, PA
While the tap list is extensive, there are also cocktails on offer. Drinks like the Panier de Pomme (Calvados, yellow Chartreuse, grenadine, allspice) and the Mezcal Magic (mezcal, St-Germain, grapefruit, pomegranate) pair well with bites like wild boar tacos.

Spokane, Washington
With 50 beer taps to pick from, you’ll be at Waddell’s for a while. Better pad your stomach with the “Lamb-Strosity,” a stout-braised lamb sandwich.

Atlanta, GA
There’s house-brewed beer, a big selection of ciders, a long list of whiskeys and refreshing cocktails at this brewpub, which is housed in an old mansion. But Fieri stopped by to try the house-cured pastrami.

Minneapolis, MN
This cozy pub offers beers on draught, in cans and in “bombers” (large, sharable bottles). The food includes classic pub fare like fish and chips as well as Asian-influenced items like banh mis and lumpia.

Plymouth, MA
You can get your oyster fix at this gastropub in more ways than one: fried in a slider, baked with bacon and, of course, in a shooter with habanero vodka, lemon juice and hot sauce.

Miami, FL
Sure, you can get wings at this tavern, but you can also get escargot and a wheel of brie for two.

Okarche, OK
According to Eischen’s website, this is the oldest bar in the state of Oklahoma. Fieri visited for the fried chicken and you should too.

Somers Point, NJ
This waterside bar and restaurant offers the usual selection of beer, wine and classic cocktails, but their bar snacks go above and beyond. The massive menu of “appe-teasers” includes things like oysters wasabi (fried oysters with wasabi vinaigrette), hot dungeness crab dip and drunken shrimp cocktail (shrimp cooked in beer).

Los Angeles, CA
While the food here is all about duck—there’s a duck French dip, duck fat fries and even a duck cheeseburger—the drink menu is all about craft beer.

Portland, ME
Set on a dock looking out over the water, this party spot features daily drinks specials along with lots and lots of lobster.

Albuquerque, NM
This taphouse brews award-winning beers like their Imperial Cream Ale and Honey Chamomile Wheat. They also offer beers from other local breweries and growler fills to-go.

San Carlos, CA
The pastrami sandwich is the star on the food menu at this Bay Area spot, but Belgian beer reigns supreme when it comes to beverages.

Long Beach, CA
Do like Fieri and get the sticky, hoisin-coated pig tails, then wash them down with beer or a glass of Cali wine.

Fox, AK
The northernmost brewery in the U.S., Silver Gulch brews up a year-round selection of beers, including an amber ale and a porter, as well as a few specialty items like a raspberry ale, an apple ale and the epicenter ale, which was brewed in commemoration of the 2002 Denali Fault earthquake.

Jackson, WY
Set in a log cabin-style space, this pub features local brews, as well as specialty cocktails like the Georgia Lemonade (peach vodka, lemonade, soda) and the Royal Jelly (whiskey, ginger ale, lime juice). The Fieri pick for food here is the “S”idewinder pretzel, topped with pizza toppings of your choice.

Minneapolis, MN
One the top tiki spots in the country, Psycho Suzi’s shakes up classic tiki drinks like Mai Tais and Beachcombers. Fieri was there for fried cheese curds, which you should also certainly order.

Cleveland, Ohio

This brewery offers more than just beer and grub. They also host events like Sunday beer yoga, trivia night and jazz brunch.

Las Vegas, NV
One of Fieri’s favorite hangouts while he was in college, the Four Kegs’ beer list is simple, but effective. Get the stromboli.

Atlantic Beach, FL
You can certainly get Irish beers like Guinness and Smithwicks here, but there are also local brews on tap like Bold City Killer Whale Cream Ale and Aardwolf San Marco Sour. If it’s even slightly chilly outside, get the stew.

Lakewood, OH
Melt has many locations, but only the Lakewood spot got the Fieri stamp of approval. It’s colorful and whimsical with cocktails like the Cucumber Cosmo (gin, triple sec, house-made grenadine, lime juice, cucumber, cranberry juice). Of course, there’s also an extensive menu of grilled cheese sandwiches.

Monterey, CA
Start with one of the brewery’s beers, then finish the night with a pour of one of the bar’s 30 small batch bourbons. Take in the vintage neon signs inside or head outside to enjoy the warmth of a fire pit.

Annapolis, MD
Stop in for a draught beer or a cocktail like an Iced Irish Coffee. To eat like Fieri, get the Killarney cabbage wraps, which he calls “Irish sushi.”

Seattle, WA
If you can’t tell from the name, this divey roadhouse and biker bar is known for its chili—there are four different kinds and you can get them in a bowl, or over mac n’ cheese or grits. But you don’t have to eat to enjoy a night out here. You can just order a cold beer, as the neon sign on the outside of the bar advertises.

Attleboro, MA
This classic neighborhood diner hides a formidable list of craft brews, which currently includes things like the Power of Love from Mother Earth Brewing and VT Haze from Zero Gravity. There’s a section on the food menu dedicated to “Guy’s Favorites,” like the meat pie.

Once a pharmacy in the 1930s, this pub’s patio is the perfect place to soak in some sunshine on those precious few sunny Washington days.

Salem, MA

This nautically-themed bar near Lake Superior is covered in seafaring knickknacks. There’s beer to drink and creatively topped burgers to eat.

Pineville, PA
Fieri came here for the turtle soup, but you can just come for some cocktails. Drinks are made with house-infused spirits and lots of fresh herbs.

San Francisco, CA
There are nearly 300 whiskeys on offer at this SF bar, with bottlings from around the world—including India, France and Tasmania. Fieri came here for the mushroom polenta. But first, for you, some whiskey.

St. Paul, MN
The Minneapolis-St. Paul bar is known for its cheese-filled juicy lucy burgers, but The Blue Door’s Blucy take things to the next level, swapping out the standard American cheese for blue cheese and garlic. According to Food Network, Fieri deemed the burger so good that he would like to “float on that burger to Flavortown.” There are also plenty of local beers to help you down that river.

Set in an old church, this space is now a place of worship for mac n’ cheese devotees. Enjoy a few local Michigan beers or come here for the full Bloody Mary station at brunch.

St. Louis, MO
Belly up to the curved bar top at this cozy spot and order a cocktail like a Green Tea Gimlet or a Chupacabra in Milan (mezcal, Rabarbaro Zucca, sweet vermouth). To snack, get the pretzel, which comes with rarebit dipping sauce.

Kihei, HI
You obviously have to have the Mai Tai at this Hawaiian fusion bar and restaurant. It’s made with Puerto Rican rum, orange curaçao, orgeat, pineapple juice, orange juice and guava juice. The whole thing is topped off with a float of dark rum, because more rum is always better.
