gno mehalikNovember 22, 2013The drink stock market is innovative and fun, and you can snag some great deals. Great music, amazing drinks, and the decor is fabulous. My No. 1 San Diego bar pick, easy! HH is also wonderful. A+
The building is gorgeous in daylight. Walk in and it's a great bar (Salty Dog, Stay Tipsy My Friends are great!) downstairs is the best dancing in town. Upstairs is a chill lounge with games and pool.

💕Linds💕October 1, 2018They have a lobster roll that is $15, and worth every penny. Lots of lobster! Felt like I was back east for a minute.
Kelly StronaSeptember 24, 2011Will definitely be returning! Wii & lounge upstairs, more games & live music on the street level, & a dance floor in the basement! Cover was $5 (not bad for downtown) on Friday night. We had a blast!

LifeIcing.com Plays well with others...selectively!September 30, 2012This is the most swinger friendly venue in the Gaslamp. Always a great place to meet others at second floor bar
Jason AmbroseSeptember 21, 2014Fun atmosphere, but avoid the chips and dip appetizer. They dump out a bag of lays potato chips and some runny blue cheese
Christina CampbellJuly 30, 2013Best bar in the gaslamp! 3 floors and excellent beer selection. What more could you ask for?!
Preston GreenMarch 28, 2013Great spot ~ the bartender upstairs (I don't remember her name...Melanie I think) is great! Will definitely visit again!
Colin FrostOctober 16, 2013You won't believe it but the blue cheese fondue is actually filled from a fountain in the back!! Amazing dedication to quality.
Good Time DesignApril 11, 2012Home of the SALTY DOG. Fresh Squeezed Grapefruit Juice and Smirnoff Vodka with a salt rim. YUM. Be careful though, they sneak up on you! ;)
MazdaNovember 1, 2010The Tipsy Crow occupies one of Downtown’s most historic buildings, dating back to 1874, exuding all the stimulation and excitement of a multi-level, vibrant venue.
Fernando FigueroaSeptember 14, 2014This is a nice place, a few local beers. There's a lounge upstairs and a dance floor downstairs.
Christopher ComptonApril 4, 2015Get the cheese sandwich plate. It's shockingly good (and surprisingly spicy)
Anne ClintonJanuary 25, 2017Atmosphere is reminiscent of the 1930's in decor. Cheap drinks, nice bar
Sarah GageSeptember 5, 2014Woah this place is cool. Yelp check-in special. Checkers on the booth tables. Pretty. Damn. Fun.
Madame No NameJuly 26, 2013Nice pub with happy people! Check out NBC's "The Feast" feature on The Drink Exchange!
UNDERGROUND on fridays & saturdays is where it's at. Just don't tell too many people about it! The restroom attendant is awesome!
Ryan OtaMarch 8, 2012"The Drink Exchange" fluctuating drink prices based on amount sold similar to a stock exchange. Also, great craft beers
This has been one of my favorite places downtown for so long. But the $8 beer made be think I probably won't be back.
Archer AllyNovember 6, 2011WROST PLACE FOR A NIGHT OUT!!Security needs training on State and City Laws, but you don't need to know that because you are not the San Diego police.
