Drinks in San Pedro

The same family has run this on Seventh Street for more than thirty years. A dark bar with a small stage at the back and cold beer. A rockabilly or blues act plays most weekends. It opens at noon and closes at two in the morning every day of the week, which makes it the only thing downtown that is still pouring when a Sixth Street show has let out and everyone else has locked up.

Every day, noon to 2am

James Brown took over the old John T's Tavern space and opened this as a brewpub in November 1999, and it has been the default Sixth Street bar since. A long wooden bar, booths down one side, house beer on tap and a full kitchen going as late as the bar. Televisions are on and the volume is the volume of a working bar rather than a sports hall.

Sun to Wed, noon to 10pm. Thu, noon to 10:30pm. Fri and Sat, noon to 11:30pm

Oak panelling and brass bar fittings put in when Andrew Silber opened this as a British pub in 1989. It passed to Martin and Susan O'Sullivan in 2020, closed for a stretch, and came back in late 2024 under new owners as a gastropub with the fittings left alone. Fish and chips is still the order and the bar is still where to sit.

Closed Mon and Tue. Wed to Fri, 4pm to 9pm. Sat, noon to 9pm. Sun, 11am to 8pm

Brouwerij West shut its brewing operation and this opened in the same 26,000 square foot wartime warehouse on February 1, 2026, with the old staff and managers rehired. Picnic tables inside, a lawn outside, beer from Southern California breweries plus cider and kombucha for anyone not drinking. Bands play it, so check what is on before you count on quiet.

Closed Mon and Tue. Wed, 4pm to 10pm. Thu and Fri, 4pm to 11pm. Sat, noon to 11pm. Sun, noon to 10pm
