I don’t know about the racist comments, I actually came here a few times and I would definitely come back. I’ve never experienced any racism, I do see that there are a lot of rude people who come in expecting and demanding too much from a dive bar. The bartender which I think his name was Chris was very nice. I also came in during one of their karaoke nights and that was a lot of fun too.

I wish I could leave zero stars because it truly doesn’t deserve one. There are a lot of comments on here about racism and I should have done better research before I went to this place. The racist reviews are 100% true. The white bartender and the other white woman are extremely racist. We were playing a game of pool and my friend of color dropped a pool stick, the white woman claimed we dropped it twice and that was “strike number 2”… but that was the first time we dropped it. It was very strange and we half thought she was joking. She wasn’t. When we tried to order another round they denied us and told us we were being disrespectful. That was absolutely shocking to us as we had only had one drink and played one game of pool. Please do not give these people your money. They treat people horribly and do not deserve to be owners of an establishment.

DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU ARE A PERSON OF COLOR!!!I loved this bar for the atmosphere and ambiance however, things took a turn for the worse when I was aggressively approached by an old Caucasian woman in her 50-60's. She yelled at me for simply dropping a pool stick on accident, telling me that "it was the third time and it was no accident!", after my friend and I try to clear things up with the bartender in the most polite and professional manner, things then get uglier when the bartender (Caucasian male, baldish, 40s) sides with the woman and kicks us out of the bar. While asking for a reason as to why we are being asked to leave, the bartender murmurs "all chicanos are the same".IF YOU THINK I AM BEING BIASED OR MELODRAMATIC THEN PLEASE READ THE REST OF THE REVIEWS LEFT BY OTHER PEOPLE OF COLOR WHO WERE ALSO TREATED THE SAME.

My recent visit was an absolute disgrace, marked by a sickening display of racism that left a bitter taste in my mouth, much like their dreadful drinks.Save yourself the trouble and AVOID THIS BAR like the plague. No one deserves to support an establishment that not only tolerates but actively perpetuates such repugnant behavior.

If I could put 0 stars I would. This place is absolute trash and I don’t know how they have a 3.9 star rating. The service was AWFUL, and this establishment is so obviously RACIST. IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMON SENSE, DO NOT COME TO THIS BAR.

Truly disgusting to see how this establishment treats its customers. My friend was kicked out just because they're black and all the reviews show that it is not the first time they have done this and is likely not the last. How this place manages to have a rating this high astounds me.

I came in to this bar for the second time last night and was treated horribly by the bartender... this bar is racist...and yes racism still exists. While I was the same skin color of the bartender the other two patrons I was with were not and the bartender refused to serve them staying their eyes were blood shot and they were a liability. Their eyes were not bloodshot but their skin color was different colored then his and everyone else in the place that was already seated at the bar and served was white... so if your not white then you probably won't be served at this bar ..Also reading the other reviews it appears this bar is racist and has an issue with people of different colors and races... take your business elsewhere . DOCS Does not deserve to be open on the beautiful 3rd Ave of CV if this is the way they operate!!!!

The worst experience to ever have at a bar i don’t know if he was racist against hispanic or on something but the security gaurd throws out the lemons we were using and we told him we were still using that and he said it’s over there in the trash, then later we start asking him why you gotta act like that and he gets more aggressive and after a talk he gets more aggressive and then forcefully takes the beer out my hand and pushes me literally he pushes me trying to drop me from my chair and continues to push me and my friends after. mind you we were in there for 5 minutes and then we were kicked out. Do not come here! This really happened! Please read the other review they are disrespectful and ready to start a fight with you for no reason!!!

Best karaoke in San Diego county BY FAR. Total hidden gem with a strong local talent draw that has history. 3rd Street Chula is very underrated.
