A cool Irish pub in Santa Monica with a classy atmosphere but others would consider O'Briens as a little too much like a sports bar. There's a small stage with live bands playing great music. There are a bunch of televisions too so you can watch your favorite games. People at the bar are very friendly generally so conversations flow like the beer. Not a very diverse selection on tap but they have a hard cider, guinness, bass, and a few others.

And College football isn't the only sport on tap, though. They make sure to show all of the local games. For instance, during the summer, it's not uncommon to see a Dodger game on one TV and a Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim game on the other. This place is a great place to drink. Perfectly segmented with a patio, bar area, and then back room for super loud performances that you can't even hear in the bar area. You get to choose your own adventure here.
