Yes, it's called Oak Hill's Tavern. It's a tiny juke joint not too far from where I work. I adore it because I walk in and one of the staff is already pouring me a Guinness.

It's either there, the Flying Saucer or Sherlocks. But mostly OHT.

You work at Helgas? I've never been there - I'm a Surrey Tavern girl myself. I once knew a guy who's girlfriend (now wife) worked there but I forgot her name... short and blonde is all I remember :P I'll have to check your place out so you can hook me up ;)

You are correct, sir!
Way before your time, but The Orange Bull was upstairs (rickety) over the laundromat. It's gone now, replaced by the Burger King on Guadalupe.:(

ooh yum I had to look up white wings on recipezaar.com...I think I have a plan for something that will go nicely with late Easter afternoon margaritas!!!

In Long Beach, beachbrat...Joe Jost's and O'Connell's.

We don't really go out much anymore, but the closest thing would probably be Al's Red Frog. Every Wednesday during the husband's softball season, at least half the team is there for 1/2 price pizza and beer. The beer isn't anything spectacular (just your average domestics) but the pizza is awesome. We almost always have the same server who knows exactly how many pitchers of what kind of beer to bring to the table before everyone gets there.

The husband also goes to the local microbrew at least once a week for lunch - they all know him there.

Joe Jost's:)an old haunt before I headed up north (well, central, as in valley) several years ago, along with second street.
The other one: new to me. O'Connell's?
Now, headed back to LA.:D
Hardly party hardy now, but I enjoy a place where I can just kick back with friends.

Then and Now
 

The Green Parrot in San Marcos - 25 years later, it's still there! Wonder if my daughter will enjoy it as much as I did?:rolleyes:

The Lighthouse was where we always went. It was recently bought by the school, sadly.

We also had an on-campus bar where we could buy beer and wine with our meal plan. All my friends thanked my parents for our wine habit.

Yeah, I love it. I've never been to Surrey Tavern--haha. Our owners have recently (like, I would say definitely within the past couple of years but I don't know precisely) bought the place (Helga's), but they used to own Limelite. So, if you've ever been there, I've been told that the atmosphere is very similar.

oooo my fave bars were the Dark Horse Tavern, Murphy's and Balducci's (which are both out of business :( ) but now there is the Red Jug Pub, which was started by the bouncers and bartenders from Murphy's/Ducci's (it had the same owner...) and my other fave bar was American Pie (my ex was the manager which was a nice perk) but that closed, He opened a new place which is nice and I've been to, but it's not my town anymore lol :o:(
