What People Are Saying About The Beachcomber

The Editor

In Short – There's pool in the back and seating on the right, but it's the dance floor up front that defines this beachside hangout. It gets mobbed after midnight with college kids and surfer dudes, the most adept of which make slipping on the sandy wooden floor look like the latest dance craze. Likewise, with a seat by the bar and a house special Lynchburg Lemonade, it's hard not to enjoy watching the revelers do their thing. – – –

Greatest Dive Bar!!!!!!!

by diddybop

So much fun! The locals are lifers and the beach community is second to none. If you want to hear some stories especially of days long past, this is the best bar. I mean OTL and OMBAC headquarters, plus rugby players on a Sat. night! Can it get any better? The parking is horrifying, but if you park north near the roller coaster and walk a few blocks south toward the jetty, you can enjoy the neighborhood.

  • Pros: great bartenders and drinks
  • Cons: no food, though bring some in

Mission Beach's Cheers

by choutlaw

The Beach Comber is truly the beach's version of Cheers. The manager and bartenders treat the locals like kings, and there is something there for all ages. Always a great time!

  • Pros: Great people, and they have their own song
  • Cons: When the tourists show up.

The Details on The Beachcomber

Parking:

Unlike other area bars, taxi drivers know the place well, as most everyone who leaves after midnight cabs it home. Walking at night in South Mission, even to nearby PB parking lots, isn't done.

Know Before You Go:

Once in a blue moon "the comber" seems more like a USD hot spot than a beachside dive. If you see a line out front, inside is likely a sorority soiree.

Look Good:

It's beachwear all the way. Flip-flops, board shorts, t-shirts.
