A drink in the sun.

The
Sunshine Company's laid back, casual style is what Ocean Beach
is all about. Beach stragglers and sun lovers come to this
two-story sportsbar to hang out, watch a game and catch some
rays. The sunroof top allows for lots of sunshine, yet the
bar also maintains shaded, cool areas too. Smokers will also
be happy to know that they can have a cig while they have
a drink. Though this shouldn't deter non smokers, as there
is plenty of room and ventilation for them as well. No matter
what your style, you'll find a nook to settle into.
The drink specials are good, but the food can only be described
as okay. Although, it should be noted that the food is made
by Livingston's Chicken Kitchen and Mexican Grill, not The
Sunshine Co.. I had the chiles rellenos, my friend the enchiladas,
and they were both bland and plain. It did, however, taste
much better after happy hour, which runs DAILY from 5PM 6PM
and includes half price pitchers. I'd also recommend their
Bloody Mary, which has a zesty kind of spice to it.
As if the company of your friends wasn't enough, you're also
given a few options for entertainment. There are two pool
tables at the back of the bar, along with an old arcade game.
You'll also find the jukebox back there. The televisions you'll
find downstairs as well, right when you walk in, showing a
couple of baseball games. Or, you might just want to lounge
around while you have a drink. The second floor is equipped
with its own bar and bathroom, so you don't have to keep walking
down to the first floor.
So if you're looking for a refuge from the crowded beach,
step into The Sunshine Company for a drink. The environment
is casual and friendly, no need to dress up, and it's perfect
after a day at the beach. Relax and have a drink!
