Ah, the Cliff Room. You may not be able to judge a book by its cover, however you can judge a dive bar by its cover - or lack there of. Close your eyes Nancy, that's not the ghosts of Christmas past your smelling, nor is it the cast extras from the movie Barfly ... wait, maybe that is Mickey Rouke in the corner.. maybe not. Â A true story, you ask ? ...Well, ..if I must; Â My buddy and I stopped into this tired aforementioned establishment expecting nothing but a cold beer and a few stains to try to avoid. What we got was in the middle - I'm not kidding - we were in the middle - of these two goofs throwing punches at each other - what makes this story more fun than shocking is that nobody - nobody - got touched by any punch. Not one punch connected in this flurry of fury. The cops came - they decided to leave. Â The two goofs hung out and made up. That would be the end of the story as well as any reason to return. Comfortable in it's classification as a dive bar there is really nothing more to add than the obvious. A semi-surly crowd, scattered with 20 somethings to 60+, Low lighting, and cheap cold beer. Â Judging by the seated posture of the clientele, stiff drinks are also a feature. I seem to remember a pool table. All with the bonus of ample free parking.
Review Source:After a night going downtown to the usual spots like Sharkeez, The Cliff Room takes the cake.
Love the place, get to know the bartender, my first time there he gave me a free shot & a drink.
Really really fun place if you just want to chill, listen to music, play pool, that sorta thing.
Place has a lot of character, I am a fan of this place!
I really don't mind this place much other than the fact that the bartender Brad is a TOTAL DOUCHEBAG. I would definitely advise to never go to this place on Thursdays so you can avoid ordering drinks from this prick. What bartender complains out loud to a customer for closing their card instead of keeping it open and then declaring they will start ignoring them? I may stumble across this bar again since I literally live across the street but most of the time I'm going to avoid this place especially when that tool is behind that bar.
Review Source:We were in the hood for dinner and wanted to check this establishment out for an after dinner drink. First impression, upscale dive bar. All the prerequisites are in place: two pool tables, darts, a couple of individual video games on the bar counter and juke box. The clientele were all low key and of mixed age as any good dive bar should be. Add to this $5 house vodka martinis and you really can't go wrong.
Review Source:One of my favorite dive bars in town, along the same lines as The Sportsman. Wood paneling, dark lighting, strong drinks, good selection of beers on tap, huge circular booths, dart board. Â There's not one but TWO pool tables and they're only 50 cents a game. Â Giant parking lot and a tiny smoking area out back.
This is definitely not a downtown SB bar. Â The clientele is generally older and not very hip-- a mix of hardcore drinkers, sports fans and city college kids, mostly guys, but hey-- it's technically it's a sports bar. Â I know a few people who won't step foot in there so maybe it has a seedy reputation. Â Go with a group of friends if you want safety in numbers, but I've been here with a group of other ladies and haven't had any problems.
I get the feeling that if this place was in LA it'd be crawling with hipsters. Â Being located on the Mesa, I'd say it's off the hipster radar. Pretty underrated if you asked me.
Definitely check out Monday nights for karaoke night!
This place is such a dive. I'm the type who likes dives, so that works for me. However, I am not terribly fond of the "dives" downtown because they are just not that divey or relaxing. This is the kind of place where 50 year-old women get hit on the same time that my girlfriend (21) and I (24) feel perfectly comfortable. A solid dive, it just needs more business and a bottled Belgian beer(like Duvel or Westmalle Triple) and it would really be great.
Review Source:Hmm... It's a weeknight and I need a drink. I live up on the Mesa and I don't feel like going all the way Downtown. Well, in that case you will probably end up over at a little dive bar called the Cliff Room. It doesn't help that it's within walking distance from my girlfriend's house (As well as quite a few City College and the odd UCSB student) Little dive bar up on the Mesa where I always seem to get too drunk and have a nice little hangover as I sit at my desk at 8am. Darts, pool tables, a little back patio, and one of those new download jukeboxes keep you drinking on thru the night.
