If you love a loud, dirty, fun dive bar then this is your place. Drinks are heavy and cheap and the bartenders are all nice. The ladies bathroom is EXTREMELY dark though.

Manager of 2016 World Series Champion moonlighting here as weekend bartender? Looks like Joe Madden but it's not. Friendly Bartender low key afternoon watering hole. Was looking for just couple beers although more spirits are offered... Go Ducks

This is the best bar there is. You can come on in have a good time play the jukebox dance with your girl, where what you want to wear and be who you want to be. Great cocktails and they’re cheap.

On of the goto places to end a night out in Encinitas. Dark enough to make everyone look marginally more attractive and reasonably priced drinks so everyone thinks they can dance. Always a fun crowd and some interesting people watching.

An Old School Bar with the Lighting to Match. My Favorite in Encinitas because it can either be the Low Key, Mellow Watering Hole, to the Full House of Local Talent. Good Drinks, Good Bartenders and Personality that Makes it The Saloon.

This place is a nice stop for a drink. Right in the middle of Encinitas, and close to the beach. I love how it looks inside too and it's nice that they have bands play!

Good music to dance to and bartenders will actually serve you promptly. Don't show up too drunk or they won't let you in

Great bar in Encinitas. Not as upscale as most here, which I like. Good music, affordable drinks, and a good crowd later in the night.
