I wish that my local favorite spot was like that. It can be loud, a dozen discussions at the same time, people checking their phones, BUT the waitstaff are generally talkative even with the organized mishigoss, etc. it's still pretty much a 2nd home to me, my Batcave. & it's a " dive - bar " that's family - friendly, so I keep profanity to a minimum, whereas some people turn the air purple with their prose.
