The Cordova Bar

The Cordova Bar, is hands down, my fav bar in all of San Diego! This place truly feels like home. The bartenders, Becca, EZ, Laura and Nick, are super welcoming and whip up some amazing cocktails! I have tried every cocktail on the menu and love them all, and they have great happy hours (if you’re a beer lover they have an excellent selection of beers on tap as well)! Looking for a gem of a place for karaoke?! Looking no further than The Cordova Bar, every Tuesday night! The crowd is welcoming and is there to cheer you on, and every month they do a special theme with a costume and karaoke contest with prizes to be won! They also have my Sunday Fundays covered with live bands every Sunday evening and a dance floor that I can get my groove on! I have been introduced to so many local and amazing bands at this place! I can also hang out here to watch and cheer on my fav sports teams, they have big screen TVs inside and on the patio! I’ve met a lot of greet peeps at the Cordova Bar, stop by, you will be glad you did!

What's not to like about this place? It is small and parking us extremely challenging (be prepared to pay if you can't find street parking) but other than those two things, we were really pleased to find this little gem. The bar tenders were friendly and clearly enjoyed their jobs. They were able to explain the menu and were knowledgeable. They were willing to pose for our review! Thank you so much to all the staff, we had a great time and we will definitely be back and bring new customers!

This is a great bar with a fun selection of custom cocktails plus standard cocktails plus wine and beer. The atmosphere has a 1970s/1980s Palm Spring bungalow feel. The outdoor covered seating has lots of couches and fire pits. I side seating is bar, small booths and bar height tables.
