Stop in for a Bloody Mary before heading home from lunch. Â The place had a make over in the front but the inside is dicey as ever. Â Nice bartenders and not a bad on making cocktails. Â If you want a cheap drink and great character patrons then this place is for you. Â We don't go out to bars that often; but this place has always been our go too on the way home.
Review Source:I lived in El Cajon for 15 years. Â I've produced quite a number of TV shows in El Cajon. Â Needless to say, I'm known there. Â I've also filmed in a number of pubs in and around San Diego. Â The management, staff and locals where always excited to see Good ole Grilldog Stop by to lap up a few liquid libations. Â However, if you were looking for that one spot, my favorite spot to play pool, watch sporting events or just hang out with a cold drink, then it's the Blarney Stone Hands Down.
In fact I even filmed my first Road Kill Episode there. That was the episode that actually got me recognized internationally. Â Although they don't serve food, the management occasionally will spring for pizza or subs for free! Â Plus the locals all have favorite recipes and typically show up with food to share.
Hanging out there for 15 years, yes, I've had a few bartenders that could have been a tad better. Â You know the young gals that seem to only want to flirt with the young studs. Â However, once they got into the gear of the place everyone was satisfied.
So stop in, it's a great place to hang out and great prices on their drinks. Â Feel free to tell them Grill Dog sent ya!
This is an awesome bar. And I am sober saying this. This is the first bar that I went to when I moved my "then" girlfriend to East County. Back then the management and the bartenders were good. And since i've returned to the bar in October when I kicked sobriety full time, I've noticed that the Management is better, the bar is cleaned up and they have pretty bartenders. They have a bartender who resembles Lindsay Lohan but thick. To my friends who know me personally and are reading this, I'm a big Lindsay Lohan fan. Automatic 5 stars. j/k. 5 stars definitely for the service, the tasty drinks and the great establishment.
Review Source:This bar prevents me from going next door to the Rite Aid and grabbing a scoop of chocolate malted crunch ice cream in peace. Why must there always be a dirty-looking drunktard smoking a cigarette outside saying something perverted when I walk out eating my ice cream cone?
This is why I should buy some mace.
