A cozy hole in the wall just across the street from the beach. The bartender was super friendly and maintained a pleasant vibe all throughout the bar. You can't go wrong with a beer accompanied by free popcorn and a selection of puzzle games at your disposal! read more

Now this place is interesting. If you don't know where you're going, you're going to miss it. It's located in a beach type neighborhood and if it wasn't for the neon signs, I would have thought it was just another condo. Inside is great and not what you would expect from the outside. Place only has about 10 or 12 bar seats but has some comfy couches in the back and random seats throughout. Good beer selection, I recommend the sour that was on tap. What really made the place great was the bartender gave us popcorn as soon as we sat down and that there were things to fidget with everywhere. Bar top games, mind teasers and a rubrix cube. This place is definitely a neighborhood bar but didn't feel like an outsider. Look forward to going back read more

Amazing and cozy little bar in the middle of a neighborhood. They have a decent selection of beer (ipa included), wine and liquor. They have bar seating, and a few tables and a couch in the back. They also give out games to keep the social atmosphere fun. The only downside is the lack of food, as I tried to order the only thing available is chips and free popcorn. They at least keep the popcorn flowing!! I recommend this place after a dinner out or as a hangout after work for happy hour. They honor military discounts as well. read more

Brews + Wine + Games + Beach = Happiness But maybe that's just me.. Oh and they constantly rotate taps to new beers with more than a few local taps! relax and enjoy YEW read more

Great vibes. Good beer selection. fun games including JengA. Very comfortable couches. Sex book saved my marriage.

Cute little hole in the wall bar. We stopped in last Friday for a glass of wine and some beers after having a BBQ at a friends house. Walked on the beach in the sand on our way there, just a few blocks down from their house. Small crowd but we were there late and stayed until last call. Everything you could want with a casual beach bar. Locals, nice atmosphere very friendly bartender who talked to us all night like we were friends, owner was also there and sat near us and took music requests from us right up until last call. Although we were visiting Oxnard we felt right at home during our time at the Beachcomber Tavern. Only beer & wine available for purchase. read more

Absolutely Love this place!! Great little dive, steps to the beach. Lots of fun games and great hospitality. Highly recommend this rad little spot! Will back back next time I am in town :) Thanks for taking such good care of us, Jim! You're the f@cking best! read more

Came in after moving down the street to get a drink and wifi. Sat in the back of this smallish beer and wine locals hangout. Bartender/owner Jim was great, made sure our free popcorn stayed full, gave generous pours and called me by my first name after taking my credit card. Classy move and place, and Im sure we will be spending some time in here! read more

OMG. What a difference! The place looks amazing and comfortable and open and inviting. Glad to see the alcove gone. Love music so happy for the jukebox...and games...and more seating. And The La Janelle lives on! And free Wifi!! read more

I was very excited to find out that this place recently opened under completely new ownership. Me and my friend were out and about yesterday and it is right down the street from where she lives, so we decided to go in and check it out. That is when I met the owner Jim. They were having a "painting party" last night but that was just one area of the bar, the rest of the bar was open for business. We found our spot at the bar and we both ordered a beer. I was glad to see that he had a decent selection of IPA's on tap. They also appear to have a nice selection of wine by the glass and some you can only get by the bottle. They carry some food like a cheese tray and desserts and he hopes to expand that soon. We really enjoyed ourselves. Jim was a very nice man and great conversationalist and made us feel very welcome. Jules was behind the bar also and besides being beautiful, she is a sweetheart and we met a patron named Carter who was SO nice! They served us free popcorn to soak up the beer and they had a Touch Tune music machine so I could hear some tunes while relaxing. It was fun to watch the people painting a sunrise (I think) while we were having our drinks and I might have to sign up for the painting class should they do it again in the future. Overall, a very nice experience and we look forward to going back. read more

Love Love Love this place! If you're looking for a cozy place to hang out with friends this is definitely the place. I loved the homey atmosphere. The decor is so cool and I love all the games and gadgets to play with. It's a great place to go hang out even if you're by yourself and just want a glass of wine or an ice cold beer and friendly people to chat with. The bartender treated us like family as did the regulars. Definitely a new hangout! read more

What an amazing find in our little local community. Everything is so well kept and fun. There are cute things to find all over the bar. Jim was very helpful and pleasant. He made us popcorn like 5 times lol. Beachcomber Tavern is just a great place to be. We will definitely be running back soon ;) read more

Great little place for drinks! Quality beers, wines and snacks. Nice change from the old raucous crowd back in the day. Well done Jim!

I'm a professional alcoholic, so believe me when I say I know a good bar. This place is warm, friendly, inviting, great drink selections from beer to wine Super sportylicious spot 5\7 read more

I was very pleased that the Tavern reached out and asked us to perform for them, again - the last time Randy and I were here it was a very enjoyable time. And when the entertainment has fun, the audience will too. For the uneducated, this is an intimate, casual, friendly, nicely decorated neighborhood spot, just a few steps from the beach in Oxnard. Jim and the staff are just amazing and they made us feel at home - that's something you don't get too often these days, and it was much appreciated.The clientele is adult and well behaved, but they have fun and enjoy the hominess the place provides. They have a great selection of beers and wines, and Cheese plates and hummus available, as well as free popcorn. Come in for the ambience, come in for the friendly atmosphere, come in for the friendly service, come in for the entertainment. No matter the reason, you'll be happy you did. read more

Perfect hidden gem out in the neighborhood. The people are friendly, super chill atmosphere full of locals and regulars. Never gets too rowdy, perfect for a late night cap when you're feeling cozy or just want to watch the game and enjoy a beer. It's small but it never feels small, they have popcorn to give for snacking on and small games to play with while you enjoy your beer or wine! Not just one or two selections, but a variety of them. Local beers and overall we come here regularly. Worth the drive. Cheers! read more

Nice little bar. George was very nice and helpful will come back again. They have random games on table n bar area to play with ur friends, and popcorn. read more

Coolest bar in Ventura County! Great local craft beer selection too. They had a Ballast Point tap takeover on Friday that was awesome!

Very cozy and welcoming. We were greeted immediately upon walking in and the bartendar was ready to take our order. Great selection of beer and wine. The bartendar gave us a run down of what they had and while my friend and I were deciding he got us a free bowl of popcorn. The bar was very clean with a lot of fun games and puzzles to play, in which my friend and I definitely made use of and ended up staying longer than we planned to because we were having such a good time. I will definitely be back. read more

Even though I live about 45 minutes away from Silverstrand, Beachcomber's one of my favorite bars... love visiting my best friend who is a Silverstrand local and heading to Beachcomber for a beer, great music, fun game-time, and really great company. Looking forward to visiting again when everything re-opens. Beachcomber will be one of my first stops! read more

My favorite local bar for 25 years! Been through a lot of change and owners but it is getting better with the current owner. The best years were with Ellie and the Sunday Bring your own covered Dish and all of them would go on tables. There was an incredible BBQ and the food was excellent! It was open during the days during the day. The bartenders were great! It will be good to see what the new owner does. read more

Great local place for a refreshing beverage. Beach ambiance with an impressive selection of wines, bottled and on-tap beers.

The place to be. Any day they are open. Grab a brew, or a glass of wine. The beach is 10 seconds away. Impeccable service with one worker, if your around Oxnard it is a place to visit. read more

I have lived on silverstrand almost 40 years , the first time I went in with the new owner it must of just been closing time he yelled at me WERE CLOSED , I left thought wow maybe he had a bad night , the ,2 ND time it was someone else behind the bar a young man he had a bunch of his friends in their an said we're closed so again I left this time with my 3 friends , tonight my refrigerator went out so I thought maybe I can buy some ice till the morning, the owner was sitting in the dark by himself an said we don't have ice, then I thought to myself wow they used to have a huge ice maker ,they sell soda an so on but no ice well ok then 3 strikes that place is out what I hate is a lier and better yet I will never set foot again in that place an more so anytime anybody asks about that place I will say don't go there go to rudder room or any other place , it's been rude , an dark an now a lier , they can have their place an I live 2 streets away ,I hope a new owner gets the place cuz it's no fun like it used to be nor have I seen any local people that used to be there ..good luck cuz u need it ! read more

Great draft and bottle selection. Complimentary popcorn and a variety of snacks (cheese plate!) available for purchase. You can tell the owner really puts a lot of thought into the presentation, selection, and upkeep. There's also lots of fun entertainment to pass the time while you enjoy a delicious draft or glass of wine: three versions of Jenga, puzzles and other brain challenges, plus some nice photography books you can peruse while sitting on the most comfort leather couch I've ever sat on in a bar. A couple of TVs provide enough coverage for everyone to have a good view of big games. The Beachcomber: Five star little bar (and, like the name conveys, right near the beach). Couldn't ask for more. read more
