The Cordova Bar, San Diego CA

A cool, laidback bar near the intersection of Morena Blvd.and Sea World Dr. The outdoor patio seating is really nice and they have a big fireplace that spans most of the western wall. The cocktail menu is fun and they have a decent beer selection. Karaoke on Tuesday nights. Definitely a nice spot to chill out with friends.

Great drinks, great atmosphere. Nice outdoor area with fire and dogs are allowed on the patio. The bartender Luis is the man! Love his energy, makes you want to keep coming back.

Great vibes, a menu with drink options for everyone and a pretty banging Halloween party set-up; classic Halloween movies playing, fantastic costumes and really nice staff. Their cocktails are also to die for particularly the "Have a Nice Trip" Overall a really good experience.

First time going there since the pandemic started. Love the new patio and subtle chznges they have made. I gotta give it up to owner, Chad for turning a parking lot in to such a beautiful patio / lounge area. I was able to see a band play thete too for the first time and it sounded great! I highly recommemd the Cordova Bar to anyone looking for a nice and relaxing bar with a cozy atmosphere and friendly and welcoming staff.

My favorite local bar, the drinks are priced really good and they are always changing up the menu which is really cool. Luis and everyone else are really friendly and helpful

Fun '50s retro vibe great drinks and live music on Sundays.outdoor patio area with fire feature.

Unassuming yet remarkably welcoming atmosphere - they make you feel as of you've been coming there for years <3 we were recommended this little spot months ago and finally made our way here. Can say even with the 1st visit, we know its going to be a SD favorite.loved the energy, Trav and Louis!

parking can be tricky but there is a lot across the way that is open to the public after 5pm.drinks are made perfect & there's seating indoors and outside.summer nights you get a bonus of seeing the fireworks too.highly recommend

One of the first places in the San Diego area to make me feel welcomed. Came from Colorado and decided to come here outta instinct. Glad I did, you won’t be disappointed.

Sorry for the pics. Took them from videos of the evening. This place was just AWESOME! Our Bartender Luis was the BEST! Great venue, drinks & vibes. 80s music dj on Saturday Night was. Staff including security was very nice and funny at times.

We will be back to socialize, have drinks, listen to good 80s music and dance!

Had a good time when we visited. It was karaoke night and there was large group of people keeping themselves and everyone at the bar & patio entertained. One woman was even doing acrobatics (cartwheels: D). Patio is cozy with couches, picnic seating and fireplace. Wanted to go back, but time did not allow. We had a Manhattan and I forget the other drink.

Amazing drinks and a chill lively vibe. Not too many youngins more people who are older and looking to have a craft cocktail and listen to good music. We went on Saturday and they had a live DJ plus we got to see the sea world fireworks from the spot we were sitting. Friendly and attentive staff. 10/10! Highly recommend. I got the naked and famous with mezcal which was super tasty.

The best bar North of Little Italy. Finally a classy urban type non dive bar with dancing type music that has a positive type vibe & FUN! Finally stopped by 4-30-22

Thoughtful purse hooks, EXCELLENT (and might I say attractive) bartenders, cute AF bathrooms and damn delicious cocktails.

Honestly, what else could you want?

A little hidden gem in Mission Bay looks like nothing from the outside but step on in to a warm and welcoming atmosphere lounge chairs fireplace great drinks great bartenders great service. A new hangout for me and my girls

Went on a Saturday starting around 630pm. Plenty of space and picked up later. Good drinks on the menu. Solid bourbon/whiskey/whisky selection. Staff was super attentive and friendly. We sat outside by the fire pit.no complaints.
