Kelly's Proves Why It's Seattle's Most Intimidating Dive Bar

When news broke Friday that the Rose Garden was the subject of an SPD sting that revealed the Lake City bar to be a hotbed of drug and gang activity, we were afraid that we'd ranked it too low at #3 in our list of Seattle's 10 most intimidating dive bars. But mere hours went by before Kelly's proved why it garnered the top slot; the P-I has details of a Saturday night brouhaha at the Belltown watering hole that resulted in an alleged stabbing. Not that such news is ever reassuring, but violent bloodshed trumps cocaine any day of the week.
