King’s X

Great place so far the locals are friendly, the food is good, the beer is cold and the chairs are comfy. I feel like a regular and I’ve only been here an hour

Just what you would expect it’s a dive bar that’s not really that bad, though located in an odd location for such an establishment.
What I mean is that it’s smack between the UTEP to the south and the very upscale Mesa Hills to the north.
So it draws neither the young college crowd or the sophisticated west sides or hipsters. Mostly an older to middle class clientele.
Regardless live music on weekends and live blues on Wednesdays.
Pool tables and small restaurant on the side. Basically nothing fancy.
Check their website or call ahead for the event schedule.

It’s a dive bar and does divey things well. (When I went back to the bathroom around 830 pm, there was an old man surrounded by food on his table leaning back in his chair passed out). I think I prefer Lloyds down the road a ways better for my dive experience (plus their drinks are waaay stronger). But the people there were nice. I’d say 95 percent of the clientele was 45 year old men and up. The other five percent of females were the staff. King’s has a lot of personality for a dive bar and has apparently been there forever. I hear they have karaōke Monday and Saturday so maybe I will try that out. Karaōke has a special effect on me if and if good, often leads to higher stars. Its true, I can be bought. But Lucy’s is attached next door and they have awesome machaca. So if get a hankering for some food then Kings X and its proximity to Lucys raises it a star.

Super chill dive bar with football, pool, shuffle board, poker and mega touch. Sweet bartenders and filled with locals. Played classic rock and is filled with fun beer paraphernalia. I love it here!

Warning: DIVE BAR. If that is your thing keep reading. Great drinks great prices great food. I can’t say enough about this place. The people are always friendly and willing to just hang out or play pool, shuffleboard or darts. The bartenders are quick and so friendly. Saturday night is karaōke. Wide range of singers and music genres. You can play the jukebox from an app on your phone. I can’t say enough about this place. I have so much fun every weekend. There is an outdoor area perfect for nights when it isn’t too cold out. Try it you won’t be disappointed. This place is an institution in El Paso and has been around since the 60s so keep that in mind.
Edit: I previously said great food. I need to be more specific. The food comes from the restaurant next door, Lucy’s. I love the mechacas burrito and salsa. Those are the only things I eat there. I have had the queso and found it to be not so good. Therefore, I stand by the bar stuff and the mechacas.
There is plenty of parking in the back and clean bathrooms. Children have been spotted here during the daytime. I personally have not taken my child here yet and not really sure that I will since it is mommy’s hideout.

Awwww yes the kings x. This place is just a great hangout! The juke box is always going, the beer always flowing. Not to mention its spacious and the patio is awesome. Great for groups and solo trips. Next door is Lucy’s Mexican Restaruant., delicious food at great prices. It’s clean and the staff are very friendly, and accommodating. They’ve also got very great specials. I’ve been a long time costumer of this place and I’ve always kept coming back home.

I always feel out of place and really young when I visit this place. So why put myself through the torture? Easy — cheap drinks and an entertaining crowd. If you want to people watch this is the place to do it. Once saw an amazing fopa (look up on urban dictionary) encased in leather and pink ribbon. It was quite the fashion choice.

This place is awesome! There’s a bike night every month. 1^st Tuesday every month great group of guys and it’s growing every month!!! Get down there drinks are good staff is friendly!

Does not get any more dive than this! Never a cover, the Lucy’s located in the same building is top notch for food and munchies

5 stars!!! Walked into this place on a Sunday afternoon in Oct. and i was shocked to say the least. There were about 250 mexicans drinking beer, crushing tacos and all wearing Pittsburgh Steelers jerseys watching the Steelers game having blast. I’m not a Steelers fan but, i have to say it was awesome! They have Sunday Ticket so all NFL games were on. Great food and awesome place to watch a ballgame. Their salsa’s are all excellent they have several to choose from. In fact we ate there several times while visiting El Paso and everything we tried was great.

The bar is a great neighborhood bar with a lot of class A friendly regulars from all walks of life. Teddy one of the owner is perty much always drunk and let’s his staff run the joint, the other Chet is minority owner is obnoxious and smells. While some of the waitresses are nice and attentive, the great majority are fat rude and give horrible service.(what could be expected of a bar where the owners get drunk in) Teddy is a good guy and has homeless guys living and showering inside the bar wish explains the smell. Over all with all the nice new bars in the area, I recommend you pass the Kings X by!

love the bar — the actual bar itself. fantastic vintage bar with large leather elbow space. i like the old feeling, but he crowd keeps this at a 3 star. i’m not really one to be kicking it with 50 – 60 year old bikers and the crowd was a little skeezy for me. one thing that sort of put me out was that i called ahead to ask if they had a certain channel so i could watch a certain basketball game. they told me yes. lo and behold… they didn’t. just sort of rubs me the wrong way. you could have the courtesy to actually CHECK before blowing smoke up my ass.
i might come back, just for the bar and the close proximity to my domicile.

Good dive bar for spending a Friday night. Beers specials are good and karaōke provides a fun atmosphere. They close at Midnight for whatever reason. Patrons cover a wide range of ages, which is amusing.

As dive bars go, this one is alright. I just went back after it reopened and have to say I think it has improved. At least the waitress was cute and friendly and not a bruiser like the previous ones.
They have lots of TVs with all the football you can eat. Beware of the obnoxious Steeler fans.
Beer is very cold and the burgers from next door Lucy’s make for good bar fare.
UPDATE: on a recent visit i could not help noticing the terrible smell which may come from the carpeting. note to the owner: please consider replacing the carpet. it’s only going to get worse

Went in here to check out the place after being told it was a Steeler bar. Website shows a bunch of Steeler stuff, but when I visited in August 2009, there was only one piece of signage up. So if you are going for a game, just be aware that it isn’t heavily decorated like most Steeler bars.
Other than that seemed like your average dive bar, was busy the Saturday afternoon we stopped in. I would likely go back if I was in the area, but not sure I would make a trip there solely for the purpose to hang out. It had a locals hang out vibe to it, and seemed pretty low key but I have my own local dive that is closer.

Two words: Cougars & Bikers.
It is a clean dive bar, but I can’t think of a single reason to return.
Worth checking out once in your life to see if it’s for you.

Ok, so your looking for some fun and you want to know where you can let your hair down?
Look no further. Here you will find a friendly crowd, attentive staff and when you want to rock & roll check the schedule for when the band F-​BOMB is playing so that you know your evening will be complete.
Teddy the owner is an awesome guy who really knows how to run a class «A» joint! He’s a hell of a guy !
Cheers!
