Swallows Inn

Fodor's Review:

Prayer and misbehavior lie cheek by jowl; across the way from the mission you'll find a line of Harleys in front of the Swallows Inn. Despite a somewhat tough look, it attracts all kinds—bikers, surfers, Marines from nearby Camp Pendleton, grandparents—for a drink, a casual bite, and some rowdy live music. There's no cover charge.
