Day 31 – Barkowski
This is a 1960’s retro themed bar paying homage to Charles Bukowski. I didn’t want to go in originally since it was only beer/wine. They have soju, but that stuff is crap. Either have real booze or ...

Day 30 – The Brixton
Originally this place used to be a true dive bar before they lost their license and this place came in. I never thought about going in until this challenge and I must say, it was ...
Day 29 – The Daily Pint
While I rarely come to this place, it’s definitely a place you should check out if you like beer or whiskey. They are only one of two places I know in Santa Monica who carry ...
Day 28 – Idle Hour

Day 26 – Britannia Pub
The Britannia is an English Pub in Santa Monica. Don’t expect them to update their website since they are still advertising sporting events from a year ago, but it’s worth checking out. The place ...
Day 25 – The Nickel Mine

Even though I love dive bars, this is not one of them. It’s quite small, a couple of booths and feels like the place hasn’t been updated in decades. Normally I don’t mind that, but ...
Day 23 – Philly West Bar & Grill
I have passed by this place probably a hundred times and never noticed it. But of course that doesn’t mean it isn’t good. It’s a cool little dive bar that serves food as well. Take a wild guess ...
Day 22 – Lawry’s The Prime Rib
Lawry’s as far as a bar goes isn’t going to be any different than any other nice restaurant. It’ll have the same booze, same atmosphere, just a place to have a cocktail while ...
