About

Steps from both the Pacific Ocean and Sail Bay at 3714 Mission Blvd in the 92109, Guava Beach Bar & Grill is an American bar & grill that has served the Mission Beach and Pacific Beach corridor since 2002. The locals-first sports bar carries NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and NCAA packages on a bank of HDTVs anchored by a 100-inch centerpiece screen with surround sound, and it has long served as San Diego's unofficial Minnesota Vikings headquarters for visiting and transplant fans. The kitchen blends American classics with South-of-the-Border flair—grilled marinated mahi tacos, slow-roasted pulled pork sandwiches, house-marinated carne asada fajitas, half-pound hand-packed Wagyu burgers, and Cajun-herbed ahi round out a menu built for sharing. The margaritas, crafted with a custom-blended house mix and agave nectar, have won multiple Best at the Beach awards, and the Bionic Beaver pitcher is a house signature meant to be split among friends. Tropical vibes continue down Mission Blvd at Miss B's Coconut Club, which layers Caribbean influence over its own beachside menu. A recent renovation added a Brazilian Quartzite bar top, interactive lighting, custom woodwork, an elevated mezzanine for large parties, a VIP room, and twin fish tanks. Guava Beach also offers pool, darts, and board games alongside the food and drink, and the patio provides street-side seating for people-watching along the boardwalk. The restaurant holds a 4.4-star Google rating across more than 1,000 reviews, with guests often singling out the margaritas and the mahi tacos. Weekend brunch service runs during football season, adding another draw for the sports crowd. Craft beer fans on Mission Blvd can also explore Draft South Mission for a tap-focused alternative in the same beach corridor.
