Here's some more:
the First and Last Chance Saloon -- Oakland
The 21st Amendment -- SF
Moby Dick -- SF (gay bar)

Strangely, Minneapolis had a Moby Dick's on Hennepin Avenue equidistant from the two big gay bars, the Saloon and the Gay 90s, but it was more of a street hustler/tough guy/dipsomaniac type of dive. The Gay 90s, incidentally, was not originally a gay bar, but became one in the late 1970s, I think.

Favorite dive bars of Minneapolis:
The Poodle Club
The Roundup Beer Hall
The Yukon Club
The Northeast Yacht Club [there are no lakes in Northeast Mpls.]
The Knight Cap Inn
The Commodore
Hexagon Bar
Palmer's Bar
Mortimer's

All of the above are filthy, depressing places with cheap, horrible beer. Fun!
