Dick's Bar 912 Lincolnway, La Porte, IN 46350

"Best price best food best drinks and you can smoke in this joint. Lovely people. Also pinball. Do it."

"In La Porte, Indiana, where the mundane often collides with the bizarre, there stands a relic of times gone by, a beacon of hedonistic pleasure: Dick’s Bar. Not your average watering hole, no sir. Housed in an old bank building, its walls whisper tales of yesteryears, of deals made and fortunes lost, now replaced by the clinking of glasses and the low hum of conversation. The atmosphere? Electric. A heady mix of history and modern debauchery, where the past and present dance in a wild, intoxicating tango. And the prices? A defiant middle finger to the overpriced, hipster-infested joints that litter the landscape. Here, your dollar still holds weight, still commands respect. The beer, icy as the heart of a loan shark, flows freely, quenching the thirst of weary travelers and locals alike. But the true soul of Dick’s Bar, the beating heart of this establishment, is none other than Howie. The owner, a character as colorful as the tales he spins, regales patrons with stories so wild, so outlandish, they blur the line between reality and the fevered dreams of a madman. Now, a word of caution for the famished traveler: on my visit, the kitchen stood silent, a victim of the staff shortages that plague our times. But fear not, for the tales of their legendary burgers have reached even the most distant shores. And I, for one, will be back, ready to embark on yet another culinary adventure. Dick’s Bar stands as a lighthouse guiding the wayward soul to a haven of cold beer, wild tales, and memories waiting to be made. Dive in!"

"Their menu is too the point, well priced, food is very good, homemade soups daily along with a special. No credit cards. Smoking is allowed. Array of dartboards. Owner and staff are amazing!"

"Kat and Janet make great Alabama Slammers and took care of our large group. They both made us feel at home while we were away from home!"

"Stopped in for a quick lunch while my car was getting repaired. Grilled chicken breast sandwich was awesome, service was terrific, cordial, and very professional. I would recommend this place. It’s a great downtown little bar."
