Hi Star! I'm Bob Kelly, Back in 1988-91, I worked there as a doorman. I knew your Dad, Lloyd Thompson. Great guy, a legend in downtown San Diego. Big, "John Wayne type" guy! Good businessman. He kept the beer & booze prices low & he reminded folks, "This ain't no Fightin bar!" He was full of stories of the past & loved to meet new, younger customers. I miss him!I came back in 2018...saw VietnameseLonnie at the small bar on left side...Glad your still in business...TheOrient bar is closed on F Street.I'll try & drop in soon, I live in Las Vegas & Philippines now. I'm retired (72) yrs old. Healthy & still sitting high in the saddle! Take care & don't ever forget your Dad. He was a Winner! ??

I walked in a stranger, I felt at home, like my own local, by the bartender and other patrons. Very nice for me, the out of towner.

Shadow of what it used to be. No more double bar. It is trying to have a club like vibe with the decor. Miller light bottle for $7 should strip it of its one dollar sign rating in my opinion. It's a shame. There is no longer a true dive bar in downtown SD.

Airport prices with frat house sanitation standards.

The spot the locals go to…Small dive bar with two pool tables and a jukebox. Diverse atmosphere where everyone feels welcome. Prices were average for the area. Clean bathrooms. Will definitely be back!

Ambient atmosphere with super friendly crew and patrons. Perfect place for pool - lil tournaments are also held here. Def coming backParking: To be fair it is the gaslamp quarter, so parking is a hit or miss...unless. you know how to look for parking and if you have good parking karma like me ?Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access to wheelchairs
