    Latinos are NOT welcome there! Absolutely racist behavior there from the very beginning by the bartender who identify himself as the owner. I realized he tried to threaten me by his behavior by asked me in a very violent manner to leave his bar, after I questioned him because he said "I don't have what is needed to make a Moodslide drink". He was nasty on his answer and then went on and on about no even serving me! Every amarican who respect himself/herself should not go to this bar, and remember that this is a country of immigrants. Also, just for everyone knows, I am a manager for a non-profit organization here in Goleta AND study International Business in SBCC, and advocate of low income people born in US or not. Definitely I think this place promote racist aptitudes, fairway from the American Constitution and the values that promotes! It would be also great if the police go and check this guy, because I think he was very violent, and definitely will create problems with anyone in the future!

    Tried to come into the bar tonight and got yelled at by the bartender. It was all outside so we didnt know we needed our masks on and she wouldnt give us time to put them on. Rude service for the short time we were there.

    Best Goleta bar. The bartender is the best bartender I've ever come across! And I've been bartending for over 30 years. Do yourself a favor and give it a go.

    Arguably the best pool dive bar in Santa Barbara. When all cylinders are firing they have five bar tables that they keep serviced and felted. House cues are a mixed lot but most of the locals bring their own. Multiple televisions with whatever game is playing on. This is very much a hangout for locals. Be respectful and you'll be welcomed like family!

    Great place! Liz (owner) is funny, sexy and an amazing bartender! Never a dull moment here (in a good way) and you are always treated like family. Highly recommend whether you are stopping in for a quick drink or spending the evening with friends! 🍻

    Great little bar! Party atmosphere any night of the week but all are welcome here: play pool, watch some football, dance around or just have a quiet chat. Friendly bar staff and good prices.

  • 5/5 Juli U. 4 years ago on Google
    They pour very generous drinks and treat u like family. Relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. If you are having a bad day and you want to get drunk and make friends this is the place to come.

    Love to go in for a hefty drink now and again. Sadi is a sweetheart, but please don't cross her; you'll pay.

    Where else can you go and have dogs greet you like this. Pool, drinks, neighborhood feel. And if your dog is approved they can join the pack.
