This place has one thing going for it big time, the fact that it’s the only place to get a beer in boca after 2am. And that’s a really nice perk. However, the place is pretty dirty all around but it is a dive bar after all. I asked a woman bartender if they had any drink specials on a particular night and she off handedly said«it’s on the board» and she walked away -.- I didn’t even know where this«board» was located and had to go search for it. Never found it, ordered a bottled beer instead because their drafts taste like the lines have never once been cleaned. Customer service isn’t their strong suit. I also was flagging down a bartender for about 7 minutes and i wasn’t bothered by that at all. I got their eyes and they knew i wanted to be served but then a group of regulars walked up to the bar beside me and the bartender went straight past me and served them. I finally had to be a prick and say«HEY can i get a drink over here, seriously…» the cleanliness of the place i can look past because that’s what’s to be expected, andni would gladly give more stars but they need to revamp their employees big time. Just very unprofessional and not welcoming group of people working here. Ill still go by late at night if i need a beer past 2am, but i certainly wouldn’t go here for any other reason.

Would of given more stars because this this place has been so good to my company happy hours & has been so kind for the most part. The GM was completely rude & out of the line. He questioned our loyalty when we even named specific names of the bartenders proving that we’ve been loyal customers… He basically laughed in our face. Wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone unless you’re looking to buy drugs after 2am, or meet people with no class. Btw. The GM with a goatee is a complete unprofessional man. Replace immediately.

Decent bar food. The place is disgusting though, very dirty. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Last time I was there we sat at a table with vomit all over the floor. It was lovely.

If you enjoy a ¾oz pour then this is your place. I’ve never been short poured so bad in my life. I’ve bartended for 14 yrs and both bartenders working poured ¾ oz when the standard is 1 ¼ oz. they must be hooking up the regulars and short pouring the rest. Terrible experience all around. I won’t be going back.

I had fun. Love the Karaōke!!! The drinks were inexpensive. I had $ 5 margaritas all night. The crowd was mixed. Its not a fancy place. Its a sports bar for locals who just want to be low key. The food menu sucks. Eat before you go!

Not for the faint of heart. Pretty hysterical find for two grey hairs who arrived late(2am) at the Marriott without dinner. Yeah, we should have had them deliver, but who knew? It was filled with a miasma of cigarette smoke that we couldn’t escape. The waitress was friendly and nice, and checked back until we had made our selections. My hot dog with chili had no surprises. My husband ordered the cheese burger without cheese, and with the fries crisp. It arrived with cheese. The waitress took one look and brought it right back to the kitchen where the chef remade the burgers, rather than trying to scrape it off. Points for that, and to the waitress, too. Hubs liked his burger and fries just fine. The crowd was interesting, including that couple on a date playing pool. She’d go to shoot, and the little guy would bang his cue on the ground, making the floor vibrate. A couple at the bar was DEEPLY in love. Then there was the guy who stormed out, only to be followed into the parking lot by another man and the host/bouncer. I was waiting for gunfire, but when we left, one of the men and some friends, were peacefully draped over our rentacar. Unless you’re a heavy smoker, have the food delivered. If you’re there for a dive bar, order a bottle of beer and have a good time. I gave it four stars because it was exactly what it was supposed to be!

Worst and 2nd rudest bartender in Boca. I’m clearly not a Boca b***h, I believe in working hard and playing hard. This place was dark and dirty. It has at least 2 inches of dust build up on fixtures. Upon walking towards the bar your feet stuck to floors a bit. The drinks were horrible as the bartender pushed us to order well alcohol. Not a shortage of filth in their bathrooms either. Do yourself a favor do not walk into this place ever.

Nipper is the best dive bar in Boca, period. If you’re a rich, snobby, Boca brat looking for a club or a fancy outing, don’t come here and then get on Unilocal and bitch about how much this place reeks of smoke and sucks. Because in truth, you are the one that sucks. Get back in your Mercedes, go to Oasis Night Life, and stand around and look pretty like you should. The best part about Nipper’s is they have a grandfathered license to be open selling liquor and beer until four o’ clock in the morning. So, once the other bars in town close down at two, this is the place to go. Hell, it’s the only place to go! My favorite part about Nippers is the classic stale beer smell that permeates the premises. If you are a fan of dive bars, you will recognize the scent. Also, the front door man is a familiar face and(usually) a friendly guy who knows everyone. It adds a nice personal touch. Nippers is a large building. One long main bar and karaōke area sits in the front room and a much bigger pool hall with high ceilings is connected to the back of the main bar. You’re never shoulder-to-shoulder unless it is busy and you’re ordering a drink. There’s plenty of areas to hang out. You could be sitting in a booth pigging out on nachos while watching a pale white guy karaōke to Dr. Dre’s «Forgot About Dre» and at the same time watch two old dudes hit on a FAU student way too young and out of their league; it’s simply a mesmerizing drunken experience. The pool hall has lots of couches and a small bar, so if you start getting drunk in there, you don’t have to go hit the main bar. Experienced, fast bartenders, cheap drinks, and a cheap, greasy food menu available until close will keep you coming back. Nippers has a loud, raunchy, smoky, divy atmosphere not for the weak of spirit. Don’t come here looking to just sit with your friends at a high top with $ 10 cocktails bitching about how you didn’t get that purse you wanted at Dolce & Gabana. Nippers is the place to have a good time, meet some new people, and let your pretensions go!

Showed up at 9:30 for food and it was dead, we would’ve been the only ones in there, so we left and came back around 11:30. It was decent, definitely a cheaper dive bar. Bartenders were nice. The place has a couple pool tables and a couple dart boards. It’s a big bar. Music was awful though. Went from country, to silence, to 80’s, to silence, to hip hop, to silence, to hard heavy metal, to something that was giving me a headache. Make up your freaking mind, dj. Overall, if you want cheap drinks in this area, you can’t go wrong. Don’t have high expectations, though.

A good late night hangout. The food is mediocre, but edible. The real value is in the crowd. It can get very interesting and that is what you want in a dive bar. Cheap drinks are readily available and the bartenders are great. Do not go early, this is a late night spot.

Work out at Bally’s, bowl a few frames at Don Carter and then drink to your heart’s content until 4am at Nippers; and never leave the building! Good college-y bar that stays open late.

Brilliant late night take out option. If, like me, you find yourself hungry around midnight at the Boca Raton Marriott after closing down Absinthe with a couple of ill advised black russians, you also might be quite dismayed to learn that the hotel does NOT have all hours room service. However, as I was advised by a wise and empathetic gentleman working the front desk’s overnight shift, Nipper’s can save your drunk hungry ass. They will bring food straight to your room. We got 6 mini burgers and 8 mozzarella sticks plus a couple bottles of water for $ 30(not including tip). Just what the doctor ordered. And it got here in less than 10 minutes. Genius. Star scoring scale: 5 = Spectacular 4 = Better than average, really enjoyed it 3 = Average, don’t regret it 2 = Disappointing 1 = Abysmal
