Customer Reviews
Larry's Beach Club has a rating of 4.3 out of 5 based on over 498 reviews on Google
This place is a hidden treasure nestled close to the beach and train station in Oceanside. Timeless feel inside the place with the large bar, touch tunes, and pool table. The pool table could use some work but it's a good table for what it is. Open early morning and late night with food being available pretty much anytime they're open. The Larry's burger and brew for $12 (pour of Coors Light or Bud Light) is easily the best deal in the county and the burger is tasty and comes with a large helping of regular fries or steak fries.
For some reason this comes up as a gay bar. I think whomever first reviewed this place meant to type "dive" and it autocorrected to "gay". This is a classic dive bar. Limited beer. Food served all day at very reasonable prices. No nonsense bartenders. I am thankful there was a bathroom👍🏼 though it was a place of broken dreams and possibly plumbing. Very wet floor.
We had a blast at this local bar. We decided we would have a 70's disco themed karaoke night on our vacation, and since Larry's has karaoke, that's where we went. To say we had a fun time is an understatement. Didn't have any food, so I could not comment on the food. Everything else was great. Drinks, staff. Live band on one side and karaoke on the other. It was packed. Must be a favorite.
This is the best spot in Oceanside! A hidden gem off of Oceanside Boulevard! Bartenders are so friendly and very charismatic! Wonderful bands, and live karaoke at night!!! it has an East Coast feel, feels like you’re stopping into a time capsule of the good old days back in the 90s…. I absolutely love the spot and come here a bunch! A pool table is in there, which is great for anyone that are enthusiasts! Go Larry’s 💖🍻🎶
Cool little place, the live music and atmosphere is a deal sealer! They have a decent selection of food as well. A great spot to visit on a weekend night here in oceanside.
If you have dive bar expectations, then you may love this place. The band we say, Nemesis, was amazing. The karaoke in the back room was also fun. There was a long haired blonde bartender that was going onto the patio and violently kicking the door open. Each time it swung back it slammed my friend’s wife in the back. We hand to move tables because the bar tender was not interested in changing her behavior. That bar tender went off shift and all improved. The male bar tendered wearing a Jaws shark shirt was much more efficient and friendly. I really loved the vibe. It was such a fun mixed crowd. I love dive bars and live music. If you expect shiny and fancy this is not your place. We are definitely going back.
I said "please and thank you" and the bartender thanked me! Look the place had a good vibe, however, whoever the two hosts were for karaoke that night were probably the worst I've ever seen do it. I couldn't believe they were that bad yet there were so many people there hanging out waiting to sing. First off the KJ was on their phone during most of the show. They had a regular set up with mixer and all ( I'm a 20+ year dj and host - visiting from out of town), I never saw them even touch the mixer. No efx not even volume adjustment - wha!?? As I saw people making requests towards the end of the night both hosts decided to do one last song each, even though others had been waiting and I'm not talking about myself, I didn't want to sing after watching that mess. We hung out because the bartender was cool dn the vibe was conducive to decent conversation. But I'm sorry those hosts were terrible for a place that apparently does karaoke nightly.
