Club Tee Gee

Best bloody Mary in town! !! I stop there every Sunday after church to park in their lot to go to the farmers market, shop and eat the tamales purchased at the market while having my bloody Mary..

Highly dated and slightly tattered, the interior feels «70s» but is likely early 80s. This is where you and a friend get drunk and really talk. Mediocre but stiff cocktails poured by someone happy your there but really relies on local regulars for a living. Endangered species.

I love lively conversation. Drunk patron and drunk bartender at 7PM Christmas Eve.
Patron «I know this religious Catholic chick who told me…»
BarT: «How do you know she’s Catholic?»
Patron: «Well she went to a fucking Catholic school and studied theology so…»
BarT: «ok, ok…»
Patron” So she says there is this homosexual priest at (insert parish here) who touched some kid and he got moved to another place and continued to be gay at that place and the moved him again…“
BarT: «I fucking hate how the church doesn’t do something with these gay priests. Just let them do whatever they want.»
Me: «Guys, homosexuality is not pedophilia. They are two completely different things.»
Patron: «Good point…»
BarT: «uh…»
Thank God they only take cash.

Seriously the worst bartender ever. I have almost 25 years in the bar business and this was the worst I’ve ever seen. She was visibly drunk and after waiting 20 minutes for her to acknowledge me, she stopped to text. Love the vibe, but c’mon!

The Cheers of Atwater Village! Cash only with a dart board and a juke box. It’s too clean to be truly divey, but it’s as laid back and unpretentious as they come. I think you can get beer here. I usually go with a cheap well whisky. The booths and bar seem stuck in a time vacuum — though I’m not quite sure what era or genre I’m stepping into. Everything about this place is a bit unusual. Which is just absolutely perfect.

Fantastic Bloody Marys! Terrific ambiance.

I found my first doppelgänger bar it’s so weird it’s almost identical to JayDees in Alhambra.. I’m in the twilight zone! Quick stop before we hit bon vivant for a bday dinner! Cash only great find!

I love this place but the hours of operation aren’t posted anywhere on the building OR online. Tried to drop by on a mid day break– COMPLETE waste of time :(

I love this club. It’s exclusive, bartenders are friendly, & will lovingly knife you. Lovingly… When I’m down I come here, everyone here will Shi* on me, & suddenly I feel better. It doesn’t make sense. Show your love to gong Greg. He is the best.

This is a great old place. Never crowded. Cheap drinks. Cash only. Nothing fancy. Nice booths, friendly drunks. It’s Saturday night and it’s quiet and chatty. It’s the «Cheers» of Atwater Village, you know.

Just your basic dive bar

Best bartender. Great music. Sports!

Interesting place. Cash only.
I think I’d like it more if the drink prices weren’t all over the place. I got a long island iced tea in a pint glass for only $ 8. Amazing, yes. Must have been on special. But another friend got an old fashioned in basically a shot glass for $ 7 and another got a whisky and coke in a normal rocks glass for $ 5. We couldn’t figure it out.
The interior is straight outta the 1970s. Not a negative. People seemed friendly. Seems like one could make it their Cheers.

$ 5 well drinks. Cozy little spot. Wood paneling on the walls and glitter on the ceilings. I came here for a friend’s birthday party and we stayed a few hours. Everyone seemed to have a good time :)

I always wondered about this place and finally got to go in! Typical dive bar, wouldn’t expect it around this area… Cheap good drinks, they have all the basic beers… Nothing fancy shmancy… And I love it!!!

Usual neighborhood «dive» bar.
Go with friends, have a good time, get loaded…

Why did it take me so long to walk into this place?
Great old bar, but cleaner than your average dive. Local feel without a total hipster invasion… at least when we were there. Reasonable prices considering the newer bars on the block. Warm, unpretentious atmosphere. probably my first pick for a drink on the Atwater Village Glendale strip. Fyi: cash only.

Pretty cool little spot to hang out at. Drinks are strong and prices are average.
Down to earth feel. And on the day I went (monday) they have some trivia game, not bad to start off the week.

This is a cool little spot.
Cheap-​ish drinks and a jukebox, which has a great selection. Unfortunately, some people have bad taste in music. However, I saw Slayer and Motorhead.
Super nice staff and strong mixed drinks. The wine selection is regulated to something that comes from a box.

Beer train stop numero tres.
One of the best Jack and Cokes i’ve had in awhile. Heavy handed pour galore. Nuff said. I’ll be back.

The David Lynch comparison seems extreme. I’d say more like The Regal Beagle after 35 years of Atwater demographic shifting. The aging patrons, much like the décor, cling on desperately for dear life — or what precious little is left of it (I’m looking at you, Joyce DeWitt).
The kind of 1970’s looking dive-​lounge that, when you walk in, three gristled regulars quietly sip on their Schlitz beer or Clamato & Budweiser or well brand tequila. They size you up and appear ready to reach behind the bar, grab the billy club (yes, they know where to find the billy club) and beat you sensleless at the first sign of skinny jeans or bullshit industry talk. Eventually, they tolerate your existence and may even throw you a grunt of approval. Before you leave, a drunken Santa buys you a drink, and you run into Mrs. Claus tossing her holiday cookies in the men’s room sink.
Bartenders are cool as fuck. Be polite, introduce yourself and tip well.
