This old-school relic has remained unchanged from the 1960s, from the local-heavy clientele right down to the no-frills pub-grub. Bar food includes burgers and sandwiches. Attire includes flip-flops and worn-out surf tees. Clientele includes locals, surfers and the occasional burly biker. A tabletop Ms. PacMan lends a hipster touch without meaning to. Padded railings help soften your fall, if you pass out from the bartender’s unbelievably strong drinks. Eagle-eyed fans of The OC will recognize it from countless shots on the show, appropriate given the barely legal/barely dressed tweens that rule the pier scene.
