The Leucadian Bar Dive Bar • $
1542 N Coast Hwy 101, Encinitas - 9.39 miles

“The Leucadian is the kind of dive bar you rarely find anymore — and that’s what makes it great. It’s laid-back, unpretentious, and full of character. The drinks are strong, the music is solid, and the regulars and bartenders make you feel right at home. Whether you're catching a game, playing pool, or just hanging out with friends, it’s always a good time.

Highly recommend if you’re looking for a true local vibe in Encinitas.“
