    This is the best bar ever! There's a pool table that takes me back to my childhood! Grace is the most hospitable bartender. The owner Joe is always in house and makes us feel welcomed. He remembered me the last time I came in! Thank you for not looking at me as if I'm just a number and valuing me as a customer: the place is so clean, will be back next week!

    Came here for a friend's birthday a few weekends ago & there was a live band, and it was an absolute BLAST. I may have been the youngest person there but there was no lack of energy by any means. Obsessed is a understatement. Wish i could post videos! Will be back when the band is there again.

    Aloha, there are 2 bars in walking distance from our Airbnb on Mission beach, the Beachcomber has better beers, nice IPAs, yes! Only drawback is no food, but they do let you bring in. And now that we know there's food next door, we'll be back. Fun "beachcomber" funny money was seen passed around, not sure how that works, but would love to become a regular to find out. The bartender was fun & friendly as well as the regulars we met. Fun people watching here for sure.

    This was the best dive bar in San Diego but that was 23 years ago and sounds like it hasn't changed.

    Great neighborhood bar from the 60s. Came in wearing a Kamala T-shirt so I had to sit on the left side of the bar!

    We went for a drink and no one helped us or did any so we left and went to the sandbar and had the best lunch.

    Amazing Service Avi! Thomas and Maciej are always the best!…read more Try the new Tri Tip Fajita! Amazing!!

    I took the family out to the beach for Mother's Day. Ended up walking by this place and got lured…read morein by the "$4 mystery shot". Trust and believe... it's a $4 shot, ain't gonna be some quality drank! However, it got the job done. The service was awesome! Our waiter was cool, he was attentive, didn't make us feel rushed, and did a good job servicing our table. Keep in mind, I had two kids that couldn't stay still. He handled it well. The food, was ok. We ordered the BBQ plater for two, a classic cheese burger, got the kids a cheese burger, and chicken tenders. The burgers were good! Good classic burger, seasoned well and came out hot. The fries were nice and crispy, could have used a little more salt, but I do like my fries extra salted, The chicken tenders... honestly... was the best dish that we had, it was the kids meal, but you know... I gotta pick at my kids food lol came out piping hot, well seasoned, great texture... and sauced down with their BBQ sauce... fire Now for the actual BBQ platter, I was disappointed in it... we got it with brisket, chicken, and tri-tip (we replaced the pulled pork for tri-tip, an $8 dollar upgrade). Our sides were Mexican corn, fries, & Mac n cheese. The proteins came out kinda cold, they had no smoke taste at all, tasted oven made, and not actual BBQ. The tri-tip was over cooked, and chewy to eat, it's a lean piece of meat, and is easy to over cook, I had to sauce the heck out of it. The brisket had a good texture, was under seasoned in my opinion (I like heavy pepper and salt on my brisket) but it didn't have any bark. I'm use to my bbq have a nice smoke ring and a good bark. The chicken was sauced, and was mid. The sides were aiiight. The Mac n cheese was the best side, the mexican corn was served in a cup, and was just ok. I'm use to Mexican corn being on the cob, rolled in mayo and cotija... with hot sauce! Messy and stuck in my grill. The BBQ sauce carried the whole dish... Overall it was a great experience! I would definitely return here for the vibes, burgers, and those bomb chicken tenders! Not for the bbq.
