Old school Newport dive bar. Come here to get salty and have a good time. The type of place that feels like shirt and shoes are optional! Beers are cold and cold ironed is fun. Very purposefully not fancy but a staple!

Dive bar on the beach where the prices won't make your head spin. Plenty of space to sit and stand and a few pool tables too chill too. Lots of California, beach, surfing memorabilia and a nice vibe.

Bartender charged me $14 more on drinks we ordered. My friend paid 33ish and I paid 47 for same drink. I was pissed but just had to suck it up and not order anymore drink.

Beware I was roofied there and the bartender did not show any care while I told them I needed help.

It's a dive bar, but their Turkey sandwich, which took 32 min to arrive, was superb! Actually, it's worth the wait. Beer was cold, bar strangers were fun, and the waitress was very apologetic for the long delay in food coming out of the kitchen. Bar tender was friendly and fast.

We love Blackie’s by the sea!! The bar was actually named after the original owner.
Founded in 1953, it is a Newport Beach institution. With amazing ocean views, in a cozy and friendly dive bar environment. The best pickled eggs ever made, gourmet, sausages, and amazing turkey Panini sandwiches. Pool tables, and ice cold beer, pouring at 29° with the beer temperature on a live thermometer on the wall.
