Service is what to expect in a dive bar. Go in with that attitude and you will enjoy yourself. The sand out back is so soft and woderful. The views are awesome with boats coming into the harbor. Drinks aren't cheap but not outrageous. There...More

I like certain dive bars but this one just wasn't my scene. Very little room inside and could not get a pool table. The bartender was not very friendly. I'd give it 2 stars instead but it gets a point for having an outdoor area...More

Best Worst Bar in the World

Great no frills place. Keep your drinks simple, don't expect anything fancy (especially in the bathroom department) and bring cash to pay and you will have a great time. Their Bloody Mary's are simple, but my absolute favorite drink anywhere. And nothing beats the feeling...More

This place puts the Dive in Dive Bar

Don't go there unless you like rude bartenders, urine smell, and just plain dirty. That may be the meaning of "a dive bar" but I was disgusted by the place. Don't use the bathroom!

Awesome Dive Bar Right on the Sand !!!

Took a drive up the coast from LA and ended up in Oxnard. We figured we would stop for a drink before heading back home and, based on a recommendation from a local, ended up at the Rudder Room. The Rudder Room is a true...More

Great chill spot and cheap

Was recommended to me by a friend and I was pleasantly surprised as to how much I liked it. The drinks are very reasonably priced (cash only) and really good. I love that you can sit out on one of their many lounge chairs, with...More

Best dive bar around

This is not a fancy place. The wine list is "white or red". The drink prices are cheap (cash only) and it is a local hangout. The best part of this place is taking your drink outside to the sand. No tap beer.

We were looking for a beach bar and found this on google maps. Definitely a bar for locals but they were friendly and laid back. We stopped in early on Cinco De Mayo to have a Corona and play some pool. There are a bunch...More
