The Best Dive Bar In Every State (North Carolina) - He’s Not Here

Posted Jan 18, 2020
He's Not Here in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, has been called the perfect college dive bar, and we can see why. If you went to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill or are just a Tar Heels fan, then you have probably had the legendary 33-ounce Blue Cup. If you want to drink with your pooch, you’re in luck — the outdoor seating area is dog-friendly. (The Daily Meal)
