Dungeon Bar & Gentlemens Club — Restaurant in Sturgis

Sturgis, South Dakota —-

The “Dungeon Bar” is THE “Run-A-Way Bill” Favorite bar in Sturgis.

Truly qualifies for the title of “Dive Bar” ... the kinda bar you might hesitate to enter - down dimly lit steps to the even more dimly lit basement bar.

The old vault from this old bank location adds real character to the dive bar. “Sharpie” markings cover ever empty space, even the few scattered beer neon tubes.

Bras & dollar bills fill any open space ... a bag of “Fig Newton” cookies can be found hangin’ from the ceiling.

An outdoor patio is available out the rear basement stairway.

I was told the “Dungeon” is only open 4 months of the year during “Sturgis Rally” season.

A “must” visit when in Sturgis.

Thing is a good dive needs to be more than dark. Drop by if you must but there are so many more interesting spots here & in the surrounding...

The Dungeon! Dark, loud and fun! Great rock and roll playing just about as loud as a human can tolerate and the bartenders are very sexy and pretty! We had a great time even though it was a short visit. Body shots? Oh yeah, they got em! Thanks for a good...
