Saales Tavern

I thought Saales Tavern had gone under, but it looks like the liquor license has been renewed. Bartenders in Chillicothe have told me that the bar scene in that town is dying due to so many young people leaving town. And, as you can see in the photo, Saales Tavern is on a pretty depressed block.
As dive bars go, though, Saales Tavern is a good one. Though the building is very run down, it still has a lot of charm. The bar has a couple of pool tables, several dart boards, and a juke box.
There’s no better example of a dive bar restroom than what is found here. Tiny, dirty, and with walls of gap-​filled rotting boards.
We were there during the 3:00 dead hour and we felt kind of sorry for our bartender, he seemed very bored and lonely. We played some trivia and drank slowly to keep him company. :)
