What a gem! This place is a dive bar, which I find those are really best! Good comfort food in casual atmosphere. Happy hour is 6 a.m. to 12a.m. so basically all day. Unbelieveable prices! Like spaghetti dinner is $2.99. When I first saw that I thought that must be an old sign. Actually the sign that says Captain Kenos is missing but you can find it on Google.Really good portions on food. 3 pork chops come with the pork chop dinner. They also have ribs, not sure what day and I think I saw prime rib on the week end. Also great for kiddies they have a pac man machine and the one with the crane where you can win stuffed animals. Even if you lose the bartender will still give you a prize! Super friendly staff. They dont have a waitress but the lady who takes the food orders will bring your food to you. Yes, the place is dated, maybe 1950? But its very clean and well kept up. I really liked it here. Its soo comfortable. I dont know who Captain Keno is but theres a picture of a fireman capt

The place to visit if you are in Encinitas. The place has it's history in the town. Food was okay perhaps they are slowly down or still in Covid mode. The bar was a scene to remember. It opens at 6am. A group of regulars on there. Friday night was a nice evening out. Bar staff was friendly and on point. Drinks where good and beer was cold. I feel fortunate to have spent an evening in there and sad that it will be closed and changed to something else. It is to meet it's maker in 2025.

Found this place by accident. It’s a dive, but the service was fast, food was good, and we couldn’t believe how incredibly inexpensive everything was. Mixed drinks with a heavy pour…$3.50! 3 people ate and had cocktails for 40 bucks. FYI: they only accept cash.
