Read moreDark neighborhood bar. Caters to the rock, metal and punk crowd but not exclusively that. They got pretty solid old school jux box with mainly punk, ska, metal and rock. Tall boy PBR is 5 bucks. Open smoking front patio.
Pool table only 50 cents. Buck Hunter and pin ball machine in case your date really sucks.
Good bar to party at after I see a show at brick by brick or the observatory here in Diego.
Parking is on Street. After 10 pm I park at the strip mall where 7-11 is and dominos. Never had a issue and its only a block away. Parking can be had closer if your lucky on Street. Liquor store next door for when you just ain't ready to quit after...
