I had been in The Boardroom once before many years ago when I thought this thing was going to be a coffee table book and not a blog. Today was a great day to go back. The Boardroom is just off the coast highway and easy to miss if you don't know it it's there. The bartender was a hot little rockabilly chick who had some classic stories like the time she "ran over" an 11 year old girl. She was constantly, and comically, frustrated by the two other patrons, who were typical friendly older beach-bar-drunk-bums. The one dude just couldn't stop from telling her how cute she was and how much he liked her pin-up girl belt buckle. The other dude told us all about how many more sheriffs there were on the coast now and how he got a DUI on his bicycle. It was all good fun and free entertainment. The bar itself is just a big open box with the usual stuff: internet jukebox, pool table, a dozen or so draft beers, and limited cocktails. On a hot sunny day like today it was perfect though, with a nice fan blowing cool beach air through the bar. Overall, I really like this place. It is a simple, hidden, beach dive. Check it out if you are cruising the coast.
