👍👍 My brother and I stopped by and took a chance on this bar, we were pleasantly surprised that the local neighborhood bar was pretty cool. We enjoyed Mehan the bartender, she was cool and down to earth. Definitely will visit again. People often mention bartenders, pool,

    A small and local bar, they have a diverse variety in music, pool tables, a big selection in liquor. A bit pricy, cash only. The bartenders are super cool and down to earth.

    Lovely dive bar. This and doc's are the only places I go to anymore in town. Drinks are well priced, pool is $0.50 good tunes and excellent bar tenders. Always a good time.

    It's a dive. But I love dive bars, and the Elwood is wonderful because of all the nice bartenders. Definitely my favorite bar in Chula Vista

    Cool little bar off the main road. Fun if you come with a group of friends, not so much if you’re on your own. Pool tables and tv projectors are a nice touch

    A true bar. Cold Beer, awesome old fashioneds, friendly bartenders. Lots of locals.

    This gem in the South Bay has it all: great selections, well-curated, cool bartenders brimming with intellect, pool tables, smoking deck, friendly regulars. Don’t bother going downtown or North County. Right out of a John Fante novel or Jim Thompson’s Now and on Earth.

    Great place and prices. Bartender is friendly. It is cash only but there's an atm on site

  • 5/5 Rafa C. 2 years ago on Google
    The 5 stars is for the coolest bartenders of any bar I've ever been. And I've been to a ton of bars.

    Ci ci or Si si is an articulate bartender knowledgeable in current aspects of the local craft brewing industry. She knows my drink by my look or mumble. Aways has my lady's Long Island ready before we find a seat. Great with names and eye contact this slender diva is more like a ride or die Boss lady who levels up the Lions Den memory to the Elwood Experience!

    Ok bar. Two pool tables, jukebox. Indoor, patio and outdoor seating. Fair price on drink. Good selection. Bartenders are hit and miss. Had great service 9/13/21. Fast, friendly and on point.
