This 40-year-old fisherman-themed beach dive is probably the least touristy place on the edge of the Santa Monica pier. Peanut shells line the floor, the jukebox is usually playing and a mix of regulars, tourists, hipsters, beach bums and celebs alike hang here to drink alone or philosophize with others.
