The live band was very good, but loud in the small room. Decor was there (what you'd expect in a dive bar) service was good and there weren't any fights, so that was a positive point.

Dive bar beyond compare. Do you like country music? Do you like dancing two step? How about dimly lit, dirty seats? If any of these excite you this place is for you.

Food is delicious, classic "greasy-spoon" type Cafe, but better. Chinese food menu is excellent, you must try their "giant egg roll", it's unique because it's an entire meal by itself. Daily specials on Monday to Friday are a great deal. My favorite is the Thursday full turkey plate lunch.

My all time favorite bar. I never have a bad time when I'm here. Everyone is friendly, and the music is always the best in town. I love twostepping and dancing in general, and the Range is never short on dance partners or good music!
