Well its been 1 year now since I've been coming here and I believe this is the best bar in the Clairemont area. Drink prices are the best , Bartenders are the best, The people are the best, and The best Billiards players are here. Never had an issue good food is close by with a Bumpin Juke Box. Old School CLMT respectful people. DILLY DILLY

If you're looking for a classic dive bar, this is it. Keith took great care of me and others at the bar tonight. Poured'm deeeeep and had a smile and invited attitude even though I came from Solana Beach. Specials every day of the week (hopefully there are pics on Yelp). Will be back for the mellow, fun occasion!

Steve makes one of the best long islands in town and gives it a special twist. Go here and ask the bar tenders to make you their signature drink, they are good! It's the best bar in Clairemont, but the competition isn't all that high. I still prefer PB for a more wild and better dance scene, but the drinks are much better here. I'll be back!

My apartment building faces the back entrance so I decided to check the place out a few months ago and have been maybe 8 times. Here are my observations:The bar itself: Small, one pool table, lots of TVs, a loud jukebox, zero ambiance, a genuine dive bar with concrete floors, wobbly tables, no decor. Drinks are strong and cheap, lots of beers, bartenders remember you, some friendly, some not so much, the place has an aroma to it. They did not/do not observe/obey Covid restrictions but I understand small business pressures and survival.Clientele: Now this place is not where you're going to find Clairemont's finest. If you're a people watcher, this is the place to go if you're tolerant of the mostly uneducated, conspiracy theorists, Trump supporters, totally blue collar folks on a very limited or social services income. The average male patron is middle aged to late in life, lots of ponytails or beyond shoulder length hair (and we all know how sexy it is to see an older balding man with a ponytail), alcoholic, weed, cigarette smoking or vaping, and their entire life evolves around drinking at this bar and looking unkempt. The women are your typical much older bar skanks and that's all I'm going to say about that except for the cost of a couple of drinks, you could probably get really lucky (or unlucky) in your car with one of them. You will find it really entertaining to listen and participate in the conversations. This place definitely has it's clique and you will seldom see a new face. This bar is not racially diversified yet not racially restrictive. Location: Ancient strip mall with maybe 2 retail stores and ample parking. Why go: People watching and cheap drinks. Don't worry about being cut off if you're drunk. If you're not easily offended by anti-maskers, Corona deniers, anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists, massive election fraud believers, and that everything and everyone in the Democratic party is evil, then this is worth a shot. Funny observation too, most of the patrons are on some form of government assistance yet they hate socialism. As I said, it's entertaining. You might even meet some friends like a middle aged guy that still lives with his mommy and reeks of weed, cigs, and beer. Epic, right? I recommend it. See you Friday after work.

My girl and i chose this place because it was open vs the place we tried going to at utc (around midnight). Initially this bar has dive bar written all over it. Walked in and no music was playing and i was like uhhhh but the assuming guy i am didnt know there was a jukebox that was just waiting for some slaps to be played so some dude hit it with the bumps and we were on our way to ordering some drinks with some good music! Gabe at the bar has a super dope friendly vibe and the drinks are perfectly priced. Honestly i felt pretty comfortable here and if i lived closer i would come here on a daily basis, but saying daily basis would make me seem like an alcoholic so maybe like 2 times a week basis. Also Gabe the bartender recommended me a special Pilsner from Thorn brewing which i tasted and it was phenomenal. Try this place out super friendly and cool place! Will be back :)
