The drink I had was the best (Long island) I have ever had. And I have had a lot of those drinks. Was not all ice and flavor but was not so strong you taste nothing but alcohol. And the bar keep has such a beautiful personality.

Charming and wonderful bar. The owner served us and was very mindful throughout the night. The chatter between regulars was very wholesome as well. Having been to many other bars in Stockton, this is the place to go.

This is a comfortable dive bar in the area. There is a pool table, electronic dart boards, and a juke box. I think a highlight is how comfortable the chairs are especially compared to the lame furniture at many other dive bars. There were quite a few people there for the afternoon. There is a more secluded back parking lot to the left of the non descript front door.

Only bar in Stockton I feel comfortable and safe. Diverse crowd just comingling and enjoying their night without trouble every time I've gone. The owner is really nice and makes newcomers feel like we've been coming for years, which is really important to me because I have social anxiety. Totally recommended! Thanks for providing a safe and fun hangout!

7 dollar tall craft beer, friendly barkeep, good vibes, good crowd, quality time, the ideal dive bar experience can be found here. Food options also in immediate area, if you’re too good to crush some Dairy Queen and have shots afterwards I don’t want to know you.
