San Diego · Est. 1935

90 Years
Of Noise

The Kensington Club has been San Diego's uncompromising dive bar since 1935. Not a rebranded concept. Not a curated experience. The real thing — worn floors, red leather seats, and bands that matter.

We hold the second oldest liquor license in San Diego County. Come for a drink. Stay for the show.
