Elmer's — Restaurant in California

What was supposed to be a fun night out celebrating my birthday with a friend ended up being one of the weirdest nights I ever experienced. We got our ID’s checked at the entrance which is normal, but why did the bald bartender with glasses have to harass us to check our ID’s again, saying we could’ve came in through the back. This was already our 2nd drink of the night, the first bartender not being a total weirdo. I tell him “uh I’m already 23”, and he just mimicked me and said “wow you’re so old” proceeding to tell my friend he needed to check hers too. Not sure what he thought he was accomplishing but he could’ve handled that...

Toby Keith said it best "I LOVE THIS BAR" Great place for seeing old friends and meeting new ones young and old hang out and take turns buying roumds. It looks rough and small but the atmosphere is exactly what a Bar is supposed to be. Booze, friends, loud, fun, and a bit rowdy. Everyone is welcome just don't show up with a bad attitude. I have met life long friends here even my wife of 10yrs went here on our first date. Come on in and enjoy...

By the looks of the front of the building, it looks like the favourite watering hole for old geezers who would have added character & charm to this rustic bar. Maybe by 8pm they're at...
