    Great selection of drinks that don't break the bank. Which means you should leave a fat tip!

    Best dive bar in Covina, in Southern California, and maybe the entire west coast?!!!!! Lmfao pretty much only leaving this review because of miss Katrina C below. The drinks are amazing and cheap, everyday happy hour 6-9pm, and the comedy shows every Sunday are TOP TIER. Melissa Villaseñor, Chris Estrada, Taylor Tomlinson have all headlined here. The open mic show on Thursday is also great if you want to see up and coming comics from the local area and folks all the way from west LA/IE/OC, or also see pros work on their material. Perfect date night if you want to grab a drink and get some laughs. Then stay after to play pool and put on your fav songs on the jukebox. I haven't even mentioned there are often live musical performances on Friday from indie/electronic/psychedelic musicians. Or the karaoke nights on Saturdays and Mondays (so much fun shout out to Dom and Nate and Albert for djing). Or that every bartender treats you like fam. Anyways, this place is home and always will be. If someone is rude to you here you probably deserved it!

    Randomly came here on a Tuesday night and got lucky it was Emo Nite. Very chill vibes, everyone kept to themselves. The restrooms were clean but needed some toiletries. Did not go to the bar so I can't speak on bartending service. The DJ working on October 10th was amazing! (Sadly did not get his name) Lovely energy, very nice, playing request, and constantly shouting out the birthday girl in the group!

    Great dive bar! Everyone is friendly. Bartenders are great. Engaging. Friendly. Happy you're there…read more Not like you're a bother. They have live entertainment on certain nights as well as karaoke. Pool table. Parking is a little difficult but as long as it's not really busy it's not bad. **** CASH ONLY **** so make sure you got bills on you. Drink prices are not any higher than anywhere else, cocktails may even be a little cheaper here, depending on what you order. It's conveniently located right on Grand Ave. I drove up & down Grand Ave for a long time never realizing this was a bar just because it kind of inconspicuous. It's in the middle of industrial buildings on one side & a liquor store & gas station on the other. I personally have never seen any kind of disrespect or "bad" behavior from customers. Everyone & everything is always just chill, having some adult beverages ( or not) , having conversations, socializing. I would suggest this to anyone looking for a nice little cozy place to hang out at.

    First visit and had a good experience. Nancy was bartending, and she couldn't have taken better…read morecare of us. It's a neighborhood dive bar, but I say that in a good way. The place is smallish, has one pool table, a couple TVs, but no draught beer, food, or Happy Hour. They do offer karaoke on Wednesdays and either Fridays or Sundays (can't recall) and the crowd was thrilled to be belting out their favorite tunes. Parking is available in front, in back, and on street. NOTE: They do allow smoking inside. There's a good selection of bottle beers, but nothing on tap. Of course, you can get shots and simple cocktails, but they didn't have the ingredients to make an Old Fashioned or Manhattan. Drink prices were very reasonable ($13 for a Malibu & Coke and a Mudslide). We asked about food and were told that on occasion one of the women working there will bring something in or fire up a grill, but it's not a regular thing. Overall, it's a fun neighborhood bar with friendly service, and an intimate place to gather, hang out, and meet/make new friends. We'll be back.
