1st Street Bar 656 South Coast Highway 101, Encinitas, CA 92024

"When I got to this bar I ordered two drinks from a female bartender and was charged $15. When my friend went and ordered the same exact two drinks from one of the male bartenders she was charged $18. When we went to ask him why she was charged more he was extremely rude, derogatory, and could not explain why he charged us more for the same order. He rolled his eyes at us and did not offer a refund of any sort. Made the experience at this bar hostile."

"They kicked me out because I went to the bathroom with a friend. Rude and horrible. Other than that, cool place and has pool tables."

"Never been to a bar where the bartender demands a tip before ordering, I don’t mind leaving a tip but demanding before I order? And saying he needs the money. Oh I’m sorry it’s not my fault you didn’t go to college."

"Best of both worlds, Great place for music and sports! Played here with my band last month and had a blast. Loved being so close to the beach, you could practically feel the waves at the bar. Small stage but good sound. Lots of seating and standing room for guests. Several big screen TV s broadcasting the big games, pretty good parking all around. (Easy load in for drummers, thank you 1st!!) Staff was great, and the bar even offers non-alcoholic beer which is a nice treat. Great music (of course) and tons of amazing food arou d the neighborhood. The vibes were chill and the bar had a big open wall/window so people walking by could get a sample of the party. It was nice to see outside while playing, and watch the colors of the sunset change. A fun place for a date or to hang with friends, even cool for family (adults of course). I felt comfortable having my dad, uncles and aunts come to my show knowing they would have a good safe time. I highly recommend checking out 1st Bar Encinitas next time your in North county!"
