Celebrating 50 years in 2025, The Silver Fox Lounge is a women-owned dive bar at 1833 Garnet Ave in Pacific Beach (92109) that opens its doors at 6:00 a.m. seven days a week. That early opening created the legendary 6 AM Club, where the first customer through the door each morning receives a commemorative rubber bracelet and bragging rights for the day. San Diego Magazine voted The Silver Fox the city's Best Dive Bar, and the Infatuation has profiled it for its cheetah-print carpet, vintage rock jukebox, and Game of Thrones-themed pinball machine. The bar identifies as the proud home of New Orleans Saints fans in San Diego, making it a destination on NFL Sundays. Drinks are famously cheap, with reviewers noting five cocktails for around fourteen dollars, and the venue operates on a cash-only basis. Descend the stairs into the basement-level space and you will find pool tables with free play on weekdays, darts, and Wi-Fi. Sports fans looking for a different atmosphere along Garnet Ave can check out Sandbar Sports Grill for big-screen game-day viewing with a full food menu. The Silver Fox earned a 97-out-of-100 health inspection score and maintains outdoor seating for guests who want fresh air between rounds. Its motto since reopening after a 15-month pandemic shutdown has been Hold Fast, a reflection of the bar's grit and deep roots in the PB community. Craft cocktail lovers seeking a tropical change of scenery should also explore The Grass Skirt for inventive tiki drinks in a totally different setting.
