Le Dive

Located at the corner of Ludlow and Canal, this wine bar from Golden Age Hospitality (the group behind spots like Acme, Le Crocodile, Bar Blondeau) sits at the heart of Dimes Square, offering a variety of bistro staples alongside a tightly curated list of natural wines and well executed classic cocktails. Despite being hip to the latest trends in biodynamic bottling, the food and the vibe are decidedly old school, drawing on the vintage look and feel of tabacs, low key watering holes that dot the streets of Paris, frequently identified by a red diamond-shaped sign. While the upstairs bar is what it’s most known for, the private basement at Le Dive, adorned with retro decor and equipped with a DJ booth, comfortably accommodates up to 45 guests, allowing for a bit more privacy and space for your evening soiree.
