“ Came on holiday from england to north beach solo , this place was close to where I was staying and it is like my second home and family , from the moment I walked in the door I was made welcome by the owner lukas , the bartender tatiana and every local in there, spent almost every night in here made alot of friends and met alot of interesting characters, beer is cheap I was drinking modelo at 6 a bottle and shots of spirits about 9 . I can't recommend this place enough for a true local experience of north beach , karaoke, live music ,painting and other activities happen here on certain nights , this place will hold a special place in my heart . ”

The bar offers an impressive lineup of spirits, from classic favorites to hard-to-find bottles, making it a paradise for cocktail enthusiasts and liquor connoisseurs alike.

The bartenders are knowledgeable and happy to help you explore different options or recommend a drink based on your preferences. The atmosphere is laid-back and inviting, making it the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a quality drink. While the liquor selection is top-notch, there’s always room for a little improvement in terms of service or ambiance, which is why I’m giving it 4 stars.

“ Great local dive bar everybody is awesome here. Great bartenders Old timers in the morning hot girls at night ”
“ Although this place considers itself a dive bar and smoking is not allowed inside, it is still charming with reasonably priced drinks, pool, and even a galaga machine in the back, wow. They have chairs and tables outside for a quick smoke if you are civilized. Great decorations two large rooms must visit place. ”
“ This place been open since the 60 i think and evrytime i come here the atmosphere is excellent ”
“ Beer 6.00 Soft drinks 3.00 No food, relaxed atmosphere. Good, fast service, kind staff, efficient. Very lovely place, went there just to watch the Formula One race, we had it in the hotel but thought watching it at a bar could be interesting. They don't serve food, but a regular who comes to play chess brought some burritos with beans and wild hog sausage, gave some to myself and my partner who were complete strangers to him, very kind. The regulars were very friendly to us, and we were surprised that they put the race on at all since it's not particularly popular in the US. Overall, nice chill place with a kind and relaxed atmosphere. I will put some quick notes and prices at the start of my review for easy reading. Much nicer than any pub I've been to in the UK, personally anyway. ”
