My kind of bar. They have live music, not crazy prices, a large bar, a back patio, lots of room, friendly staff, and cool clientele. If I lived in South Park this would definely be one of my hangouts.

Awesome neighborhood bar with lots of activities. Every other Tuesday there are Sketch Parties where people draw on the paper that is taped to the tables.

The 80s/90s/Y2K Dance Party at this bar was insanely crowded! I came here with 3 friends to burn some calories after dinner. While we had a great time and enjoyed the music, we all agreed the bar was way over packed and jammed with people. There were people dancing at every nook and cranny, half of them completely wasted. I had countless bodies rubbed up against mine and had beer spilled on me multiple times. People were dancing with their drinks and with the heavy crowd, drinks were splashed everywhere! I felt dirty when we left! This was a fun experience for $10 per person, but I'm not so sure I would come back due to the uncontrolled crowd.

This 1 star rating will not change until I personally receive an apology from the security job who kicked me out of the Storm Aid benefit for simply just enjoying myself. I'm sorry I opened the door with my leg. I do that as I kickboxing and grew up playing soccer, so I like using my legs. Now, all this stereotypical power tripping bouncer had to do was ask me politely to stop and I easily would have , but nooooo......he likes kicking people out because that's the only satisfaction he takes as an insecurity guard. Bro, I started out as one, I know. I had no respect for them then and it's hard 24 years later to still respect them now because of incidents like this. Thankfully, I moved out of that position in 1 year at age 22 to live out my dreams. Anyway, this isn't a pissing contest. This is simply a reminder to have a heart and learn proper social skills. We all have a story to tell and last night I was in a very vulnerable state as I haveen since my friend Otto died at the start of this month. Next time you hire a security guard (any establishment) , give them a good interview because when it comes to customer service it starts at the entrance door and ends at ends there because first impressions are everything. This review will be deleted and forgiven once and only if I receive an apology from that security guard persinally because I do not slander or bad mouth anything unless they deserve it. I like and respect the Whistlestop but have never been kicked out of any bar or club in my entire life. You'd feel the same if you were in my shoes. What a slap in the face San Diego. Thanks for that. At least the Turf Club showed me some real respect when I went there to drink a water and cool off. Take a lesson from them. Shout out to John ??. Anyway, my offer is on the table and I am waiting. Once again , this has nothing to do with Whistlestop whatsoever. The bar is great but just look out for customer service wherever you go.

John is the best bar tender ever. Everett needs a raise. Tom was so amazing he should be the manager.
