Pounders Sports Pub

Small sports themed dive bar in Escondido. I don't usually come down to this neck of the woods, but it was a fun spot to hang out and get cheap drinks. A friend was playing a show there, with a classic rock set and everyone was boogyin down to Jimmy Buffet! Anyways, good times, bathrooms were small and kinda dirty, this place is exactly what its supposed to be.

Pounders is a good dive bar in Escondido and one of the only bars worth going to in Escondido.  Mainly because the Irish pub across the street actually closes its doors at midnight and all the bartenders end up at Pounder's anyway.

It can be a pretty rough looking crowd in here at times, but fights and such rarely happen.

We set out to conquer the Escondido bar scene, but Pounders was our third stop, and we just ended up staying here for the rest of the night.  Our quest was derailed by Stella pitchers, new friends, foosball, a dance floor, and a live band.  On this Saturday night, the Stone Wolf band was on stage -- check out the lead singer's epic hair in the wind!

Pounders feels like a very large dive bar.  They feature a dance floor, foosball table, and two pool tables.  If you're not into it, there are a few other bars a block or two away.
