Live Oak Tavern

One night, Richard and I decided to be adventurous and bar hop down Pacific/Taylor... interesting night. Live Oak Tavern is stuck in the 70's, it smells a little strange and I would avoid the beers on tap (we had to exchange for a bottle) but I guess that all adds to the experience. The owner, Denver, lives right next door and also manages the mobile home park behind the bar. We had a good time hanging out with Denver, listening to his stories and watching Food Network. Cheap beers but he is cash only and the closest ATM is a mile away, so come prepared.

Stopped in here with Steph a couple of weekends ago and had a beer.

Denver, the owner was tending bar and was super friendly. He told us the history of the place and how the trailer park out back was originally one of the labor camps when Route 40 was being built between San Francisco and Atlantic City, NJ.

The decor is definitely dated, but that should be expected. Its like walking into a roadhouse from the 50's or 60's. Truly a place that time has forgotten.

If your in the area and looking for a funky little place to stop in and grab a drink, check out the Live Oak Tavern.

Oh, and since it is an owner operated business, smoking is allowed.
