what you’ll find
A laid-back local pub — nothing fancy, everything you need for a night out or an afternoon game.
Every game, every screen
TVs all around the bar for whatever’s on — NFL Sundays, college ball, fight nights and the rest of the sports calendar.
Pool tables in back
Rack ’em up with your crew. House tables, house rules, loser buys the next round.
Dart machines
Cricket and 501, quarters in the machine, bragging rights on the line.
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Since 1979, businesses in North PB have come and gone, but West End has endured and thrived on the corner of Turquoise and La Jolla Boulevard. Always a great place to meet up with friends, meet new people, and satisfy your thirst. West End serves young and old, pool players, dart throwers, surfers, and bullshitters.
In the 90’s, one half of the notorious duo that founded the legendary Mac Meda Destruction Company, Jack “Mac” MacPherson, served as a West End bartender, and author Tom Wolfe captured the absurd pranks of Mac and Robert (Meda) Rakestraw in his book The Pump House Gang. West End was also spotlighted in Fry Koskenin’s book Bar Pool: Matters of Shrewd Gamesmanship.
game day
Grab a seat, order a round and settle in — the games run all day and the crowd stays till close.
Eagles Day
The Philly flock lands here every Sunday. Green jerseys, game audio on the speakers and a full house from kickoff to the two-minute drill.
The Regular Round
Sports on every screen, pool tables and darts from open to close, and a neighborhood crowd that knows the bartenders by name.
