One of my favorite bars in South Park. Good beer selection. Great place to meet up with a group of friends, however not much parking

Good live music venue. I think they also have a Pub Trivia night which I look forward to trying. They do serve you a drink and then tell you that you need to down it and get out 1 minute later. I hate that. Why not tell me before I buy the pint, that I am only going to have 1 minute in which to drink it!

Ok, this is an update for Monday nights, and Monday nights only. Trivia night is a blast! And hellz yeah to the dorky tv show category... and to most every table getting the Firefly question right! I will definitely be back. The posse will be taking you all down!!! - except for the fact that I will leave early because I have to get up at 6:00AM the next day...

This is the best bar in San Diego. There's something fun happening almost every night ... cool bands, film screenings or even board game night there is something for everyone. Best night is One Nation with local dj's Blackstone and Atari, which happens just one Saturday a month. Amazing music and a great crowd that loves to dance and have fun without any attitude. The trivia night is also almost always a blast.
Whistle Stop is big enough that you are always sure to meet some new people, but small enough that everyone who visits feels like it's their own personal bar. I love it.
Pros: One Nation!
Man...i used to absolutely love this bar. I guess I still do. Although now it's just a matter of looking past the cover charge and influx of new wave hipsters who outgrew moondoggies and the pb bar and grill. If you are into the meat scene, definitely check it out on the weekend, friday and saturday nights. Great music, excellent drinks and incredible staff. But if you're like me and you long for the old days when all the north park nobodies kept it like a secret...try game night on thursdays or chillin on the sideline for a sunday bloody mary.
Pros: I have never had a bad night at the whistle stop. ever.
Cons: silly kids in their name brand get ups.
A great neighborhood bar and one that you can walk to if you live in the area - definitely don't have to worry about the long lines!
