I purchased a freshly squeezed lemonade for my son and he enjoyed it at the beach as he played under the scorching summer sun.

It's Poppin Duo!! Just what the O'side Strand needed!…read moreKettleCorn & Fresh Lemonade! Located just under the Oceanside Pier; Poppin Duo has got the perfect handheld snacks when heading to the beach. They've got a variety of unique flavors for their KettleCorn. I recommend their Watermelon & Tajin blend and I also love Chocolate & Banana. I forgot to mention that they have fresh-squeezed lemonade made to-order. I appreciate the flavor blends of the kettlecorn and lemonade to satisfy the sweet & salty. It's the perfect way to beat the heat on your way to the beach! I love that Poppin Duo also supports our local community. I've seen the owner buying from local vendors at our market. Local Supporting Local!! Service is fast & friendly and there's always Free Samples to try. There's no seating; so just grab-n-go! Just look for the bright red & yellow kiosk under the Oceanside Pier and grab a bag while you're their!!

The store is a kaleidoscope of pre-packaged popcorn in every color of the rainbow. Their website lists an impressive product line of 29 glazed and 18 savory popcorns. Some of the more intriguing flavors are Piña Colada, Red Hot Cinnamon, Watermelon, Churro, Cajun, Loaded Potato, Ranch, Dill, Guadalajara, and Bacon Cheese. Now it's pretty common to have a drink of something with popcorn, right? Well Always Popping has checked that box multiple times with a slew of Bobas, slushes, bubble teas, taros, matchas, and milk teas. Toss in their Acai bowls and the combinations and permutations are endless. We picked up three bags of their popcorn -Watermelon, Kettle, and Strawberry-Vanilla. We can't wait to try them!

You have to pay for dipping sauce. I had the mustard. The pretzel came with a very good amount of sea salt. It was well baked and offered a light crispy exterior and a soft center.

They offer a lot of tasty popcorn flavors! The service was very friendly.

Chris made the kettle corn the morning of our party so it would be fresh. He has so many flavors, but I chose classic, strawberry, blue raspberry, and green apple to match the colors of my party theme. Everyone loved it! This is not your typical mall kettle corn. It's really light and crispy, not stale and sticky. Plus it's just the right amount of sweet for those who don't want their kids eating candy at a party or the adults who don't partake in the extreme sugar rush of birthday cake and fruit punch. Chris also offered us the option of setting up at our party and making it fresh for everyone. Unfortunately we already had a taco caterer so we were limited on space, but I'll definitely keep that in mind for our next event. I got so many compliments on what a great idea the kettle corn was. He even makes carmel flavor which might be my next personal order. :)

The rooftop has one of the best views in Oceanside and is definitely a great spot to bring a date…read more The atmosphere and ocean views are the main draw, and the chicken sandwich was excellent. That said, after multiple visits, the service has consistently been the weak point. It can be slow and doesn't quite match the upscale experience or price point you'd expect from a rooftop like this. At these prices, I'd expect a level of service closer to what you'd receive at a high-end resort, and unfortunately it hasn't been there. You're definitely paying a premium for the location and view. I'd still recommend checking it out, especially for drinks, sunset, or a date night, but keep your expectations realistic when it comes to service and value.

It's beautiful at the top, we didn't really have a great view from our seats - but it also seemed like if you are a larger group there isn't too many options. We were seated by the pool area - which was strange since we weren't hotel guests and weren't planning to swim, but it was closer to the pier view. The main area seemed to be more shaded than the pool area, so half our group was in the sun and the other half were shaded, thankfully there was a breeze! We specifically went for the happy hour drinks and they were delicious!!! Service was good - our waitress was friendly. I will recommend this place to anyone visiting the area on the future!
