One-Eyed Kellee’s (3007 6th St S) is a cherished Old Southeast gem that has delighted visitors with $3 draft beers, homemade pretzels and $2.50 beef taco Tuesdays since its inception in 2022 (though the building’s bar legacy dates back to 1972). On Fridays, veterans enjoy 20% off tabs, while Wednesdays honor the service industry with the same fantastic deal.

Inside One-Eyed Kellee’s, entertainment reigns supreme. Engage in competitive games on the pool table (free on Thursdays), test your aim on dart boards, strategize on chess boards, or belt out your favorite tunes on the karaoke machine anytime – there’s never a dull moment. 

The seating itself is centered around the bar which creates an ambiance that beckons you to shoot the breeze with fellow patrons – a story or new friend is always sure to follow after a night at Kellee’s. Often referred to as a “5-Star Dive Bar,” the bar’s name is a reference to the joint owners Kelly and Lee (Kellee’s) and how one squints when inebriated.

One-Eyed Kellee’s is not just a dive bar; it’s a living, breathing slice of the Old Southeast’s culture. From its humble beginnings to becoming a cherished part of the city’s social fabric, the bar has witnessed countless memories being made, each leaving an indelible mark on its vibrant personality.
