Blind Melons: Where Everybody Knows Your Name
Article written by Kristel Boe
While most PB partiers migrate toward the larger bars and clubs on Garnet, some may be interested in settling into the comfortable atmosphere within Blind Melons. Literally the last bar on the strip, Blind Melons is easily overlooked. Sandwiched between Kono’s (quite possibly the best breakfast place in Pacific Beach) and a quaint Mexican food joint, Blind Melons is a step away from the bustle but far from the chaos.

Regulars at Blind Melons are not interested in flash, but more so in having a good time. The atmosphere is extremely laid back, the way some say a bar should be. Each week there are specials to get you out of your house and onto a bar stool. Open Mic Tuesdays, battle of the bands, and Jagermeister Night are just a few reasons to change a work night into a late night. Local bands frequent the Blind Mellon’s stage regularly, including Shaggin Waggin, which won the San Diego Music Awards a few years back. You never know, but at Blind Melons you may be rubbing elbows with some of San Diego’s famous locals. With plenty of seating room, a full bar, and a pool table, Blind Melons is one of the few places in Pacific Beach where it feels like your very own neighborhood bar.
