One of O-side's greatest little (hidden) gems. 4 stars for the atmosphere is not a dig, it's a compliment to this local, historic icon and awesome little dive bar, where it's the perfect place for a low key hang out, play pool or sit outside...Read More

This is a legit "dive bar" with friendly, old school bartenders and staff, a pool table, good music, back patio with a fire pit, respectably clean bathrooms, a good beer list and a damn good burger! They've also got other food and I've attached a photo...Read More

You've got to check out what all the hype is around this Rooster Burger! It was my first time here. Pebbles was our amazing bartender. Hands down all the way around. All I got to say is Cockadoodledoooo!

Easily the best burger/dive bar in North County. A small, low key spot to get good food and cold beer at a good price. Staff is always friendly and the vibs are always good.

Tyler absolutely killed it behind the bar! He’s bartending, grilling, DJ, fryer repair - you name it! Solid burger! Onion rings were crispy and tasty! They rep some good local breweries. I’ll be back!

I've been here twice since moving to O'side. My burger was perfect and juicy both times, and the second one was cooked by a vegetarian. Great burger with a slice of green Chile, sautéed onions, and a slice of American cheese. Buns toasted and you...Read More

Great burgers/food and a great atmosphere. Nice small place to grab a drink and a meet up with a friend or two. Cash only place (they have an atm though) and pay as you go so they don't really do tabs or anything. Simple, straightforward....Read More

This is a dive bar. With that being said, the bar tender was SUPER nice. He took the orders, got the drinks and also cooked the food. We ordered a burger patty and cheese for our pup. He happily prepared it for us along...Read More
