I stop in every other weekend. Love this place. Really fun atmosphere. They book great live acts and have a legit stage and sound set up. They get really busy but the bartenders handle it surprisingly well. The clientele may look like tough customers, but no one goes there looking for trouble... and if they do, security is on it. Love this place. East county needed it. read more

I have been to a couple of live concerts here and it does not disappoint. I try to catch a few football games during the season as the crowd is awesome and the owner Michelle mingles around and gets to know everyone. Definitely a place I'll continue to come to. read more

Many of you might know it by Second Wind. Today it is Full Circle Lounge. Re-Painted. Great Drinks. Craft beers on Tap. Live Bands every Saturday. Huge dance floor. Pool tables. Last a great owner Michelle! read more

Its kareoke night! The music is loud and the drinks are cheap but dont let that be the only reason you stop in here. Its located remotely close to the highway and easy to park. As I arrived here I was immedietly carded at the door. The atmosphere is open as you walk in. Plenty of seating and an assortment of drinks to choose from. If your short on cash an ATM os available. Wednesdays are kareoke night and the two pool tables are open no cost. If your looking for entertanment there is a stage ready for live music. Hope to see you there! read more

Full Circle Saloon - Sports Bars Near Me - Santee, California

Full Circle is really the only bar I frequent on a regular basis. Michelle is an amazing person and owner. The bartenders are awesome and friendly. Live music on the weekends, karaoke twice a week, football Sundays with catered food to buy, and I am a regular for a year or more now at the drink n paint events! I've met so many people and made some great friends at this place. So glad you and Chuck opened up in East County!!! read more

Good bar, sweetheart bartender and owner. I had one bad night here with the lady doing karaoke but other than that it's been great.

Nice people, fun atmosphere and had a blast listening & dancing to the great cover band, Strait Jacket! read more

Full Circle Saloon - Strait Jacket - Sports Bars Near Me - Santee, California

I met Michelle when she was a bar manager and have nothing bad to say. She has always been super amazing and respectful. I attended her bar for years and was always please while she was here and the staff she employed. For anyone to say anything about not supporting veterans or anything else is absolutely absurd. I was active duty and now a disabled vet and I have received nothing but respect. If you come across any professional issues please contact her and I promise she will take care of it and on your next visit you will be a happy customer. She takes pride in community, service and professionalism. Can't wait to come visit your bar!! read more

Excellent location with easy freeway access. Friendly staff, good prices and good drinks. One of Socal's best places for live music. I watched the band Miss Demeanor and they were awesome!! :P read more

Fun place to see a band, great prices, nice bartenders oh and the all important air conditioning on full blast! This used to be "Second Wind Santee", the new owners have made several improvements. It's a large capacity venue if you want to have afternoon events as well. The owners allowed me to use the space for a fundraiser. Michelle was extremely generous and helpful. read more

Great crowd, great experience, great hyper local bar. If you need a day cap or night cap this is it.

We went on a Friday night, and the place was not quite half full. Drinks were ok, but overall the place was kind of dead

We are visitors more north of San Diego here for a weekend in El Cajon. Checked yelp for a high rating establishment and came across this place. Went in and the music was happening although the service SUCKED, stood at the bar for 10mins with the bartender making eye contact 3x & not asking for an order..bad service!! We are one to look for hole in the wall establishments and rave about it & we can be very influential people. So don't bother if you ate looking for service!! read more

I ALWAYS HAVE A BLAST AT THIS BAR. Not pretentious, fun and cheap drinks!! I love that they have good shows (like really solid bands you can dance to), yummy and inexpensive drinks and an upbeat staff. I live in La Mesa and let's face it the bar scene is pretty lame. This place is right off the 125 and 67, which makes it easy to get to. Michelle, the owner, is an industry veteran that finally opened her own place. She's a real person, with a real family and not some wealthy corporation. She's also one of the sweetest and most down-to-earth people I know. I'd rather party with her and spend my hard earned money at her place than just about anywhere. Tip- movie Mondays are a good time! read more

I was selfishly bummed when one of my fav bartender, Michelle, left the bar in my neighborhood. Football Sunday's are not the same without her energy and Philly love. But... super happy for her putting her heart n soul into her own place. Full Circle Saloon is a true neighborhood bar where you feel part of the family while grabbing some reasonably priced drinks and shooting some pool. Congrats Michelle!! read more

If you're looking for an all star list of bartenders, this is where you want to go. Great selection of drinks and fun atmosphere.

This is the place now a days if your looking for a place with great music chill people good food appetizers and some pretty good rates at drinks and close to home in east county come check it out. Theres karaoke as well. read more

Visited on a Thursday night. There were only 5 people when I got there but after karaoke started I'd say the crowd tripled. The ginger bartender has a decent pour. There are 2 free pool tables and shuffleboard (not sure if it's free). read more

Cool place to hang out and listen to some cool live jams! I like the food especially at a reasonable price. I totally recommend this place!! Check out the Saloon on a Thursday night you won't regret it!! read more

Its time here on super bowl Sunday. Friendly place, great bartender, they had food to die for. Nice clean place. People very friendly. will come back again. thanks read more

Great place to see bands play. Good sound, lovely bartenders and plenty of parking. The drinks are reasonably priced and good pours.

Very nice bartenders and generally a pleasant vibe for a strip mall bar -- patrons are not pretentious and not too sketchy. Actually had good live music! read more

Awesome place, great bands. If you're looking for a good time, this place is it. Always a fun time.

Security is a joke. Too small of a venue for the people that show up at this venue. Needs to expand or shut down

Great place! Stopped in with some friends midweek in the afternoon. Bartender (Leigh) was attentive but not hovering- exactly right! Great prices and a chill vibe. Will have to come back when there is music. read more

The place is alright, they have good live shows. I had some issues the time I was there but were resolved.

Love this Bar! Have visited several times. Staff is great, bands that play are always amazing and the prices are very reasonable. Can't wait to go back! read more

Fun dive bar. Indoor table shuffle board. Pool tables. Dart board. Bar Tender very nice for those who are designated drive. Pool tables were free on Thursday night. Karaoke night on Thursday. Love it. read more

The bar was ok. It is a dive bar. My problem was I used my credit card and the next day someone started using it for online purchases. The following day some one tried to open a new account at a retailer I dont even shop at. I rarely use my credit card and had not used it for several months. So it Stanger I used it at this bar and my problems began. Visa is sending me a card with a chip and put credit protection with the Credit Bureaus. read more

I enjoyed my night here. The bartender was very attentive and served my order on a timely basis. She was friendly and personable to my requests. I would definitely come back here often and tell my friends about Christine. read more

Great bar to chill out at! Been a couple of times and service was great. Gets busy when bands play but staff is quick to take orders and on busy nights they have a cash only beer stand for quick access. Highly recommend if you are looking for a low key, hassle free night with great prices and good people. read more

Ownership awesome. Good sized stage and great place to see live rock. Thank you for not closing and keeping live rock alive. War Cubbies!!!

Came here for a friends birthday and I have to say I was very impressed! Staff was great, drinks were good and the band playing that night was awesome! Will definitely be back! read more

First time here---had a real blast! Elaine the bartender was gorgeous and nice.....great bouncer too(Mark)! I can't believe all the games, including pool, was free. Drinks were $4 until 8PM, and then went to $5.25 which is not bad for a free cover with 2 great bands! Up The Irons rocked the house! I read below that they pour a decent pour. This is incorrect. I got 3/4 of a shot per drink. Very weak! This is why I gave 4 stars instead of 5. Most dive bars give 1.5 shots, or even 2. So have some drinks at home, before you arrive, so the weak drinks will not be an issue, and get a driver too. I recommend this place for sure, though! Owner, Michelle is a nice lady. The place got packed, and saw some old friends there. There is a problem with most bars these days....the issue is global. Bartenders these days are hard up for money, so they give you a freebie in order to make more tips. This rips the owner off. Sometimes it's a mistake, but usually on purpose. Be on the look out for this. The owner could lose hundreds of dollars, from a sneaky bartender who wants more tips. I did get a freebie during the non-crowded time. I like the fact it's close to a taco shop, Jack in the Box, and Chicago Pizza. I have not tried the bar food yet, but I hear it's pretty good. Great time! Mark is the best bouncer ever! Good people! read more

I thought it was going to be a great bar with all the reveiws. Turns out it was not what it was hyped to be. They need to get into the 21st century. Looked like a bunch of burn outs. The bartender was a little lost. Maybe she should scale back on the weed. read more

This is a pretty bad bar. Not very good service. Smells and has some shady people who work there. Drinks are expensive. Very out of date. Biker bar.shady activities. Bar maid was on her phone instead of serving me. read more
