I went there right after these guys bought the place and felt overwhelming unwelcomed there. There was one guy in particular there that I think is a friend of the owner or perhaps part owner?? I'm not sure what but he was just a jerk. Like he wanted to start trouble with my friend and I. We are buying rounds but he didn't like our kind apparently. He'd make patronizing remarks. A friend like that come into MY bar would be tossed fast but whatever.
Years later now and I give it another try. The atmosphere was the same. Unwelcoming and uptight. It seems to cater to a different crowd or something?? I mean, I figure myself as a regular half white, half Mex dude who likes rock music, Chargers, Padres, sports, etc. but it just doesn't go there. Weird. The bathrooms are all jacked up too.
Even with all that said I don't want to totally dirt bag the place. The good side was that they had a nice bartender working, not real social but fairly attentive. They have a good juke box, allot of TV's, a covered smoking area and an open wifi. Now the guy who I think owns it was very affable and had a nice personality but the overall experience.... well I'll be back in a couple years to give it another try.
Oh, and these aren't just my sentiments. My girlfriend and buddy felt exactly the same way about it. So one star times 3.
Last night we went to the Chula Vista Sports Bar and had a great time! They had Hemp Ale on tap which was good. Hadn't even heard of it before I went there so points for introducing me to something new that I liked! The owner was there and he was friendly and cool. The pool games were free. Â It was a great place to have a beer or three on a Sunday! Â :)
