    Visited Santa Monica on St. Patrick's day and the only decent place close to the pier was the craftsman. Friendly bartenders, good happy hour and delicious snacks. Ms pacman machine available too.

    An okay place if it’s your scene. Lively and not overly crowded, even late on a Saturday. My drink wasn’t very good, but I would have been less upset about it if it was happy hour.

    Corn 'n Oil. If it's good enough for Keith Richards, it's good enough for me.

    Shuffleboard and PBR. That's it, but it's not a bad thing at all.
