The Cardiff Office on Aberdeen Drive in Encinitas's Cardiff-by-the-Sea district is a dive bar set in a strip-mall storefront adjacent to VG Donuts and the Seaside Market shopping center, overlooking San Elijo State Beach. The bar runs pool tables, shuffleboard, darts, foosball, ping pong, and a TouchTunes jukebox alongside a cocktail and draft program, occupying a different niche from the plated-food model at nearby El Pueblo Mexican Food - Cardiff across the 92007 corridor. A recently added adjacent Tiki bar expanded the footprint into a second entertainment space, and karaoke nights and sports broadcasts round out the weekly programming calendar. The walls feature old sports memorabilia and a painting of Cardiff-by-the-Sea, and the Aberdeen Drive location puts the bar within a short drive of the Del Mar Racetrack — a proximity that feeds the after-track crowd during racing season alongside regulars from The Shanty on Chesterfield Drive. The interior layout includes multiple seating pockets around the main bar, a dedicated game room in back, and the new Tiki annex configured for overflow capacity during peak Cardiff summer evenings.
