We love that we found this neighborhood gem near Shelter Island. The food is amazing!! You walk up to order your food and drinks and then find a seat. The portions and pours are amazing, the soy ginger wings are out of the world and there is always something fun going on. This time was bingo! It is a little loud inside but it's just a vibe. They do take out orders too. You can easily walk here from Humphreys down the street if staying near by. Highly recommend. read more

Always a good "vibe" at Harbor Town Pub. Today I looked in the side room and saw all sorts of video games. We played the basketball game, super fun. Food is tasty, long bar and staff who hustle. read more

Harbor Town Pub - Basketball game at HTP - Bars Near Me - San Diego, California

As a trained chef and CEO of an entertainment production company, I've had the pleasure--and the responsibility--of ordering **every item on Harbor Town Pub's breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus**. My professional verdict: HTP has, by far, one of the best **home-cooked meal vibes and flavors in San Diego**. Harbor Town Pub is a true San Diego Padres bar--*bar none*--but it's also much more than that. It's where Point Loma locals gather, along with visitors who want to experience what a genuine San Diego pub should be--and is. Every guest is greeted with an enthusiastic **"Welcome in!"**, and every departure receives a heartfelt **"Thaaaaank youuuu!"** That kind of warmth sets the tone immediately. The staff brings tremendous energy, and management is wonderful. If you're in the mood for craft cocktails, ask for **Blossom or Joel**. They're true masters of both classic and creative cocktails. The pub is family-friendly, with free movie-theater-style popcorn, bottomless coffee during brunch, and eight big-screen TVs showing all the sports action. There's something happening for everyone: **Taco Tuesday**, great music, wildly fun karaoke, and the legendary **Power Hour when the Padres win**. Military members, fishermen, boat captains, locals, and tourists all seem to find their way here--and nobody ever seems to have a dull moment. One especially meaningful touch: I designed a Padres sticker, and the team placed it on the back wall near the beer taps. That perfectly captures the spirit of Harbor Town Pub: welcoming, community-minded, proudly local, and full of personality. **If you want great food, genuine hospitality, Padres pride, and the authentic energy of a San Diego neighborhood pub, Harbor Town Pub is a must-visit.** read more

Stumbled upon this amazingly cool pub and wish I lived closer to be a regular. Super cool vibes, there's a mini arcade inside but on the medium size because it's literally HUGE. Food menu is dope, we tried to tostado which was basically poke nachos and had a few brews. They had trivia night going on which was really cool to watch & the service was good. read more

We hit Harbor Town Pub for breakfast because of good Yelp reviews. The pub only serves breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays. The Pub is colorful and interesting vibe inside. Sport knickknacks and service badges cover every surface. TV monitors played soccer championship games. A large game-room offers pool, electronic games and pinball. Indoor and outdoor seating are available and dogs are welcome. Rock music played in the background. I ordered a Linguica Scramble, which was a mix of tomatoes, cheese, spicy sausage, scallions and cilantro scrambled with eggs and topped with fried tortilla strips. The egg mix was accompanied by a generous portion of delicious crispy hash browns. The sausage was a bit spicy hot. My breakfast was hearty and delicious. My brother had a Breakfast Burrito filled with eggs, French fries, avocado, cheese and bacon. The burrito was hearty and he said it was delicious. Nina, our server, was amazingly upbeat for early morning breakfast. She made an effort to learn my name and introduce herself. She called me by name the duration of my meal. Food came out quickly. The bar is interesting and fun with regulars stopping in for breakfast and an eye opener. There is nearby free street parking. We walked. read more

We were partying it up at a wedding and the couple decided to have the after party here. Great choice I thought at first. It was on my list of places to go. We rolled in maybe 50 deep. It was popping on the Saturday night around 10pm when we showed up. It was pretty full. They had famous Sunday night football games on. The back area where the games were was full of energy and bright lights. The only problem we all felt we had was with the staff. We all felt that they were a little rude. Other than that. The drinks were decent. Nothing to write home about. The bathroom wasn't spectacular and someone definitely puked. I'd come back and again. Maybe during the football season. read more

Date night called for a spot for one last drink and we came here mostly because we found out they were dog friendly and we had our pup with us. It was a Friday night so it was busy but not too bad, it was easy to walk up and get a drink and the people that work here are truly super nice, easy going, and helpful. We were able to get a table close to the back entrance and our pup got lots of pets from people entering in. I did not realize they have a full arcade area in the back and of course the popcorn machine which if you know you know has tabasco with the popcorn and trust me you have to try it. We just had some drinks this time but I want to come back for brunch sometime soon. read more

Yes, this is a bar for folks who like to party, watch sports games, and play video games. I took my 11 year old for dinner b/c she really wanted a hamburger. She said it was really good! I ordered a bowl of flank steak that came with cabbage, pickled onions, edamame, onions, and rice. It was "healthy" and delicious. You order at the counter, take a number, and food is delivered to your table. We sat near the front by the small parking lot. In the back, there are a few spaces and mostly street parking. read more

Harbor Town Pub in Point Loma is one of the places my friend likes to go to because it's casual, offers food/drinks, tv monitors throughout and music blasting so loud you can't have a conversation which is perfect since he's not there to talk. The place is dark, dank but looks clean enough approachable. There's a room with arcade games which attracts adults and children. This pub is also dog friendly. All the female staffers are not friendly and not helpful, despite the fact my friend is a regular..is NOT good service. The polar opposite effect from the male staffers who are friendly helpful and cool. There's limited spaces at the back for free parking. After parking and upon entry from the back door, you order and prepay for your drink and food from the counter before finding a place to sit. The staffers will bring your food and drink, no table service after that if you're in a booth. Service at the bar isn't any better since the one bartender seems to get overwhelmed and service falters :( My friend is a typical swm: single white male who likes beer, whiskey and bar food to his health detriment. He finds this place tolerable and it's one of his hangouts. This pub can be considered a dive to some or just a cool get away pub for others. The menu does have some edible foods: Brussel Sprouts, Fries and Poke nachos all of which I've tried, when I had a minute to seat and stay. My friend has tried nearly everything on the menu but his favorite are the burgers and the fish and chips. Good service is sadly inconsistent but Harbor Town Pub has been here for years and it's a community anchor located close to the harbor. Caveat emptor! read more

Did somebody say Happy Hour?!!!!! HTP never fails, and my recent visit was more of the same. The music is always bangin', the food is always delicious, and the crew is supremely awesome. Here you'll find delicious burgers, fresh salads, and beautiful fish (relying on my +1's for that part). Came out for an afternoon lunch that ended up spilling into a beautiful Thursday happy hour, 3pm-6pm, experience. For lunch, I enjoyed a spectacular, juicy, and deftly seasoned burger with chopped bacon, pickled jalapeño, and you guessed it, BLUE CHEESE BABY! This 1/3 lb burger, $15.95, was thick, cooked to perfection (the standard is medium so if you don't like medium just tell them your preference), and served with beautifully crispy fries. I'm more of a 1/2 lb burger man, so I should have added an additional patty for about $5-6, but I still had my fill. But as lunch waned on, happy hour kicked up the excitement with a straight plinko style showcase that included a recurring drumroll and a rotating highlight of a different special every 30 minutes. Let's gooo! This created a vibrant shift away from my delicious, yet dwindling burger. Can you say $3 whiskeys, with a $2 upcharge to make it an Old Fashion? Or how about $3 Pacificos, or $5 Moscow Mules? Each of which were one of the highlighted specials during the 6-30 minute specials during happy hour. Accidentally or otherwise, I indulged in several, whilst making new friends at the bar-Heyyy Grant and Claire! I really enjoy this kind of happy hour experience and they definitely knock it out of the park with this one. Shout out to bartenders BEN and NINA who not only provided 5 star service, but consistently kept the vibes on 10! Did I mention they play good music hear, from older hits to hip-hop classics, I often find myself singing along to hits from yesteryear. I didn't play any games, but they've recently expanded with even more games and seating. If you're into to pinball or those pop-a-shot type basketball games, this might be your go to spot for food, drinks, and fun. Many thanks to the cast and crew at HTP! You guys rock! Note: If you like Waterfront in LIttle Italy or The Hills in La Mesa, you'll be happy to know they're all under the same ownership and share a some similarities. Enjoy! read more

This place was such a pleasant surprise! Completely unassuming from the outside but right when you walk in you're welcomed by the fun decor, great energy, plenty of games, and tons of TVs. You order at the window and they bring your food to you. We shared the wings and I got the Chinese chicken salad. Both were good but I would probably try different things next time. The waffle fries looked really good I was eyeing the persons food next to me. Will definitely be back again! read more

I've been here a couple of times for lunch, and I've never been blown away. The place is kind of dark inside, and has a sports bar/dive bar vibe. The food isn't bad, but also isn't memorable. The prices are on par with the area. Have never had to wait for a table. Very impressed that they have a sizeable parking lot that has always had open spots. I honestly only go there for a change of pace from my usual eateries. read more

Came on a Wednesday before noon, which happened to be the opening day of the World Cup. They were showing the Mexico game, and the staff was nice enough to turn on the sound after many of us customers requested it. The FIFA vibes were definitely on. Our drinks were good, and the BBQ pork nachos were so flavorful that we couldn't stop talking about them after we left. The service was excellent that afternoon. We decided to come back later that evening to watch the night match. It was a different crew--still friendly, but less attentive during dinner service. We ordered the nachos again, and they were just as delicious. One downside was that there was no sound for any of the games (the Stanley Cup Final, FIFA, or MLB). Instead, random music was playing throughout the restaurant. They also host Bingo on Thursdays, which was a lot of fun. Would come back during lunch!!

Gotta admit that the food here always hits the spot each time I come in here. You really can't go wrong with whatever is on their menu as each item is flavorful. I got the Jalapeno Burger and a side of garlic fries, if you're a fan of that you already know what you'e getting yourself into. We also got the Cali Burrito which the meat was highly bomb.com Super cool vibe, friendly staff and food came out in a timely manner. Will for sure be back. read more

This is a great place if you have kids. We we're trying to find a place to watch the World Cup with our kids and most bars do not allow anyone under 21. I found Harbor Town Pub and it was great. The service was good. They have a large selection of beers both on tap and in cans. There are all kinds of options for food. I got breakfast, my wife got a chicken salad, the kids had the sliders and chicken tenders. The food was good. They have a large game room for the kids. A very family friendly place. As a bonus, they have free fresh popcorn. I will definitely come back to this place. read more

This place is fun!!! Firstly, they have a popcorn machine and you can serve yourself popcorn, so I was already very happy. Full bar, and the food is SO good. We were a big group so the pics are just what my friend and I shared. Ahi Tuna Tostada- they give you a good amount of Ahi and it was very good and fresh! Buffalo Cauliflower bites - super tasty! Jalapeño Bacon Burger w sweet potato fries- easily 9/10. A little salty but sooooo tasty and the perfect amount of spice. Will def be going back, and will actually try to place some arcade games lol ALSO they give the ENTIRE bar a round of shots. Big win read more

Servers here are always nice, so that goes a long way when considering returning. I've eaten here 4 times over the years, and it's always good, and at times excellent. It's got a few TVs playing whatever sports are on, an arcade that's connected, and the the generally rock/pop/90's music dialed up, so if your a sensory overstimulation-type, just go outside. Tables are small on the patio, so not sure about large parties, but perfectly fine for 4 or less. I am going to keep watching the health inspection reports here in Yelp though... they are trending down over time and 90/100 is pushing my comfort level. That said, it appeared clean and' the food was fresh, so I'm hoping inspectors see things differently next time! read more

When I managed restaurants I would ask: what's more important to you good food or good service? Not a deal breaker but an interesting response because you need both to create a memory. This spot has both and more. I bring every single person who hasn't been here or heard of it and make them a lifer. Hands down one of my favorite places to eat some of the absolute best food and best cocktails with always nice staff. It can get super crowded so pick your time to attend wisely, however even when they're slammed they manage to go around and check on you. This is a quick service restaurant with a bar so to have someone come around is pretty rad. Fun games, clean restrooms, somewhat decent parking. Don't. Change. A. Single. Thing. Ever!!! read more

I used to come here years ago when I worked nearby. A decade later I started coming in a bit more after recently getting back to San Diego from years of traveling. I just want to give a big shout out to Morgan, Rayne, leah, and the rest of the Harbor Pub crew for absolutely working their asses off during the insane busy weekend nights. The food is always good (extra ranch on deckkk), beer is cold, and meeting strangers just seems to be the norm at this spot. Thanks again to all of you who take care of me whenever ! come through.

Food was good, servers, bar tenders were amazing and chill, relaxed atmosphere. You can sit and chill and watch the game or get a little competitive. Dogs are welcome which I love. The only downside is that they have carpet inside which is great to walk on but not so great when our fur babies have accidents :( May be time to switch to tile or something else. We opted to sit outside and enjoy the space which was exactly what was needed to start the weekend. read more

Would be 5/5 if the drinks were stronger. I ordered 3 drinks and didn't feel a buzz.

What I ate (and I did eat 95% of it because I was starving and didn't dare wait another 35 minutes for another option), was overcooked, and since it was fried that meant blackened crusties and rubbery dried out fish, all served on a burnt bun. I get it...kitchens get backed up, sometimes staff doesn't show up, sometimes you have a newbie. But I did offer to pay for my drinks and cancel my order long before it arrived...but instead was forced to wait on this, overcooked and burnt (the irony). Waitress gave a heads up they were backed up...that was a plus, two tables ahead finally got their food...but then there was nothing else coming out of the kitchen, and those tables had now had enough time to consume their food and were lounging and relaxing. So I went to the front to cancel the order and a fella hopped out of a booth from behind on over to the register. I say it's been over a half an hour let's just cancel the order. His reply was to look up the order time, and then tell me it has been "33 minutes" as though that was a logical rebuttal and I was being unreasonable. He refused to let me pay for the drinks telling me the salad is done and that we were waiting on the sandwich (never crossing his mind that perhaps he could at least offer to wrap it up to go). So not being permitted to pay and cancel I went back to the table and waited. The same guy delivered the food. When the waitress immediately came over after, I had already had a chance to see the burnt piece of fish and burnt bun, and sadly, waved her away...what was I going to do? There was nothing to say. I couldn't complain, I couldn't ask for a replacement, I was forced to wait for burnt food. I had plans, was late and had to make alternate arrangements. Not life altering but annoying...I survived. What was insulting was the waitress brought over a card after I had paid...a free round on the house. First off, nobody was drinking. Second, could have spared me the wait time, and could have just not forced me to pay for burnt food. Host, manager, owner? Not sure what his role was...but missed an opportunity to just cut the losses. I heard the salad at our table was good, crunchy buffalo chicken. There were lots of ads for specials so they do try as a community bar to keep folks interested and engaged. Games on one side for the kids (or big kids). But having driven 90 minutes, wouldn't go out of my way to come back (too many other options). There was a guy on a bench outside who was sipping on a soda, looked like he was passing through with his backpack, so I gave him the card, go in, have a soda, watch a game...hopefully they honored it. I would not say don't go. but I would say to the register gatekeeper...do better. And definitely appreciate your staff, they at least had attentive servers. P.S. Need to keep dogs on the patio. My SD was tucked perfectly at alert under me, and on three separate occasions in the one visit had to physically block dogs from coming under the table (passerby's with drunk oblivious owners). In one instance had to shove my leg out pushing the dog back (ironically this same dog had been sitting with the register guy, so likely a local regular)...I repeatedly told his owner, "no, No, NO!" So that didn't help my experience either...all that after I had to get up and stand and argue about cancelling my order (which the quick position change and standing resulted in an episode with my blood pressure and heart rate). It was just a hot hot mess that should have been better handled. read more

Awesome local bar! Incredible burgers, and exceptional staff! Chris and Nina are unbelievable, best bartenders around!

Good drinks and decent food. Happy hour deals were also great. Would recommend for locals and visitors.

Thursday June 11 2026 we went here for lunch because they were advertising FIVA." soccer game .Very inviting and friendly. There were several request to put the volume up on the tv but the manager said she had to play music. seemed reluctant. Eventually she did and people started to order and have a good time. Food and service was excellent We had a good time and we were going to come back for dinner to watch the next game at 630 pm. We can we sat but not the same result. Manager would not put the volume on the game. Service was lacking. Food wait time was ok but the food was good . My question to the GM is if you advertise FIVA soccer and your employees are wearing soccer jerseys why wouldn't you put the volume on the game. We stayed for the game did not order as much as we wanted . Probably look for a different location to eat drink and watch the game. I hope the GM reaches out. Part of marketing is if you are going to advertise you should deliver. I gave the a 3 star rating. If they would have put the volume on it would be a 5 star rating. read more

Burgers were good and decent size. Chicken wings are delightful too! It has a kick of Filipino grilled chicken or inasal (that's what I think). Made me miss back home!

I will come back for those wings and their arcade! Lol read more
