Esther’s High Dive reimagines the classic dive bar, gleaning inspiration from the life and times of the woman behind the famous Neon Diver image. Her name was Esther Williams; Olympic-qualifying swimmer, graceful Old Hollywood starlet, and heroine of American swim culture. An icon of her time, she became a figure for the vibrant signage that once frequented swimwear ads and illuminated motel pools across the country.
Inspired by the world she lived in, Esther’s High Dive blends the vintage glamour of Palm Springs, the charm of midcentury American motels, and the playful energy of a retro beach club. What emerged is a high-end dive bar; elevated cocktails, a thoughtful menu with a nod to diner favorites, and the familiar feeling of returning to your favorite hangout.
