The Bitter End


The Bitter End is a three floor café and club bar. It is housed in the oldest San Diego, California building, which is located in the Gaslamp Quarter. Bitter End promises to stay in San Diego as long as possible, even to the very end. This hip hangout is known to be a hangout for local famous faces. The upstairs floor offers the Black and Gold Card Members space, which is reserved for Hollywood stars. The underground section is for dancing. Often 70s, 80s, and 90s hits are played by the DJ to keep people on the floor.

The second level offers the swish lounge with purple walls, Michael Angelo style frescoes, sofas, wall tapestries, antiques, and marble fireplaces. Drinks at The Bitter End include 20 different Martini mixes. The bar is 40 feet long and made of mahogany.

Depending on a person's viewpoint the bar is still hip, though it does not play 21st century music as often as other bars in the city. They are known for their bartenders, the second floor being the best, and being a place to hangout. For visitors to the city it is worth seeing just for its historical value.
