I remember coming here years and years ago with my pops when it was actually a sit-down restaurant with good food. I have no idea if they even serve food anymore, as I typically find myself here on the late night tip after I’ve already had a few drinks in my system. Regular patrons can be kinda interesting or um creepy, but if you come with some friends you’ll be fine. It can surprisingly get kinda packed and some of the local hoodlums tend to pass through, so just watch out for that. Unfortunately, the parking lot sucks, but one of the bartenders here makes the best chocolate cake shots so as long as someone else is driving and dealing with the parking, I’m good to go! It’s also kinda fun to get super tipsy and check out the plethora of adult shops located on the same block. Did I really just say that? Why yes, yes I did. Just try not to get shot. And did I mention it’s ridiculously cheap?

Have you ever gone into a bar and thought, «This seemed like a good idea at the time»? The bar you entered more than likely was Marv’s Broiler. Marv’s is host to a variety of people you find in old dive bars: drunk senior citizens that have been drinking since the bar opened, employees of industrial buildings that head over right after work, ladies with blue eye shadow. A cornucopia of the upper echelon of human kind. Its dirty bar that has an odd smell and furniture that has been around since the stone age. There is a kitchen but you can get food if the cook decides to show up. When I was eating meat what kept bringing me back to Marv’s was the cheeseburgers and greasy fries. Yum. The waitresses are all friendly and the regulars are always willing to talk shit with you. Every time I’ve been here there has never been more than fifteen people in the building. You want cheap drinks? You can get cheap drinks here no doubt. If you are brave enough to venture to White Center you absolutely must visit Marv’s. Don’t be intimidated by its shabby interior and exterior. You will warm up to it soon enough.

«Meet at nice bar or shit bar?» «Dive, please.» «Ok. Meet me at Marv’s Broiler in White Center.» I love dive bars. Not enough to ever be considered a «regular» at one of these fine establishments, but those loyal patrons are a huge reason I venture into these dimly lit, seedy joints in the first place. The entertainment value in people watching is at an all-time high at Marv’s Broiler; this bar gets packed, crawling with interesting characters. Prowling bar flies with thoughtfully coiffed 1980’s hairdos grace the stools alongside drunken college kids playing their favorite Radiohead song on the jukebox five times in a row(really guys, five times?). Seattle cowboys, Vietnam vets, and the tragically hip scenesters line the booths. And sure, the weird, toothless guy who spends the night undressing you with his eyes and drives that big rape van parked out back; he’s there too. Marv’s has an endless amount of oddly appealing, and slightly creepy, customers. The drinks aren’t too shabby, either. I asked for a dive, and Marv’s Broiler delivered exactly that.

Every time I get drunk I say/yell«LETSGOTOMARVS… FUCKINGJELLOSHOTSFOR A BUCK» now I know a jello shots sort of equal a Bartells and James light berry punch, but I don’t care I like my booze congealed. Some other great things about Marvs first it is across the alley from the best taco truck in town, perfect time for a quick jello shot after you order your grub, or if you feel like making it a special night check one of the porn shops, grab your self a butt plug and a midget porn, boom quick jello shot and you are on your way to romance.
