I have to admit, I havent been to a bar in quite some time. My mom loves this place! We decided to have a girls night out and I have to say, it was so much fun! The bartender was awesome, he used to work at a bar around the corner from my house. Now that he is at Mine Co., Makes me happy. The drinks were on point. I listen to all types of music and this place does not disappoint. County, rap, hip hop, etc... I will be going back for more when I get a moms day off again. Thanks Mine Co.!
Good neighborhood bar with pool, darts, games, and a stage. They have live music and karaoke on certain nights. The bartenders are awesome and the drinks are always good.
I never thought Id find myself in one of Spring Valleys dive bars, but I had to try it once I found out a musician friend was performing there. What can one expect at the self-proclaimed Ford Pinto of bars? Live music on the Tiny Stage Saturday nights, a couple of pool tables, darts, board games, and a friendly bartender serving up a very healthy pour of Scotch. My only complaint was the constant influx of cigarette smoke from the outdoor area. Stay classy, Spring Valley!
Gotta love De Oro Mine Co. If your looking for a cool place with hreat live music (if I do say so myself lol) come on down to a locals spot.Every time my band Cherry Road and I play hear we have a blast! The stage test our ability as it is super tiny, but the sound is great and the crowd always has a good time.They have 2 pool tables and an outside patio that you can watch the bands from. Its the kinda place to come amd hang for a bit, not a quick drink.The crowd is a nice mix of all types of people, and can be a bit intimidating at first. That being said we have never had anything but positive experiences here. Not a fancy place so if thats your scene, De Oro isnt for you.We will defiantly be back to play again!
Great neighborhood bar in San Diegos east county, Spring Valley. Live Music tonight by the Upshots. 3 pool tables, great drink specials.
Came here to see a band from Indiana called Chin Up Kid. No cover on a Monday night for live music? Remarkable. Gotten a $3 beer from the bar (Kona Big Wave) so it was a very low-cost night. Seemed like a quite good dive bar if they have actually obtained cheap drinks and live music. Never in my area yet if it was I presume I d be consuming alcohol below regularly.
I love this cool local Spring Valley cocktail and sports bar. Still has a sports bar vibe. Friendly staff and Devon the KJ karaoke host is a ball of energy. Awesome. Karaoke Wednesday. Is a fun time.
Not sure what is going on here. Ok place to hang out but seems better for locals.
Super friendly and personable staff. I went in at 10 a.m. on a Sunday to watch a football game, and they were ready to go. The owner even bought my first drink! It was mixed strong, but still tasty. At lunch time they got pizza for everyone on the house. I really cant say enough good things. Ive definitely found my regular football spot in San Diego. Keep up the good work, yall.
Totally awesome place ! Every part of that place has something to do. Darts, Dancing, singing, pool tables, And all the employees treated everyone like family ! We all felt very welcomed....I play Drums for Evilution, ( the stage could be a little bigger.lol.) the Bud light on tap was cold and crisp. Wow! Ages 21-92+ I invite you all, Real easy to find.... So No Excuses!!! Thanks Again To De Oro Mine Co.for having us.. it was a pleasure!Much Respect, Fm;Willy Watts/Revilution for letting us Rock the House!
Syco bartender white girl blond hair wears glasses hass a attitudes totally out of control for a nice local bar with karaoke football and rafles awsome place it could be a five star bar but not with her if possible avoid her at all cost very confrontational she tried to short me five dollars out 50 i got a pitcher 13$ took my 37$ for a tip come on wow when my friend aked me to play pool. Then she started yelling all bad carful a wreckinh ball ready to explode the owner G top of the wine kind of guy very respectable
Nice staff cheap drinks
I have always had a great time at the mine co
Gloria is the VERY best tender. Shes in charge as well as lets ya understand it ... in the finest method. Service, rate, and computer animated characters in the club.
Reasonably priced drinks, good service, games, live music. What more do you want?
Like the atmosphere. Pretty good in prices and even have music most weekend nights. It can get full but even then you dont feel crowded.
A great neighborhood bar, great bartenders, a good menu good prices and free music on the weekends!The best Owners in town usually a good crowd
Great ambience, fair bar prices, they have live bands pool tables outside area, great hang out spot
I have never been inside and might not ever go in. I do take and pick up customers there and they like it. So I will rate them a 5 star and I have heard nothing bad about this local bar.
A fantastic place for cold beer and billards. It looks like its the east county RAIDERS Bar. A nice bartender. Ultra clean. 5☆ dive bar extraordinaire. Football must be fun here !!!
Old school mom an pop feel
Friends and fun.. fun with friends
Great casual, laid back, quaint atmosphere. Awesome bartenders, drink specials are off the hook, and free live music (check the website). Just an all around great place to hang out and have a drink or a few.
Not a bad place. Karaoke on Wednesday nights 8-1, cool, but heads up though- it is loud...
I went in just to use the restroom. To my surprise when I asked the bartender, if i can use the restroom? and she did let me use it even though i was not a customer at the Bar
They have live music. Rock and roll and booze for those who dig that. I had a coke.
Love this bar!! Rob is the greatest bartender. Super friendly customers, always a good time!! Prices are reasonable
There was a great vibe and I got to see AMAZING music from Monti.
The 5dollor deal beer and a shot combo is awsome
Great dive bar, really great staff! Ill definitely be back!
Best place EVER! Home of the $5 beer and shot! Over 20 different options. This is a locals bar but the crowd is very welcoming. If you find yourself in Spring Valley, California, stop by for good cheap drinks, live music Thursday through Monday, pool tables, and a great crowd.
Bartenders are decent. Security is basically nonexistent, sloppy, unproductive and rude. Owner tends to drink while harassing its customers. The atmosphere is filled with locals who exhibit roudy behavior. Not a place you would take someone on a date.
Great surroundings bartenders are friendly an owner is very hospitable
Love bingos on Thursday just wish it was every Thursday not every other thursday.. friendly great place to drink.
Great bar tenders friendly patrons
Great lil neighborhood bar. Good people, live music.. great bartenders. Always a fun time, plus its walking distance from the house.
Great place! Most people are even fun to talk to.
New owners x2 years- Guillermo and Wayne are the best. Plenty of live music in a variety of genres with different activities during the week. They have free pool on Mondays. Lots of tvs to get your sports or whatever fix. Ownership keeps troublemakers out AND- the bartenders are AWESOME!!!Spring Valleys equivalent of Cheers.
Local crowd. Strong drinks. One of the most beautiful and bountiful bartenders around. Love you Wanda!
Love karaoke night and i love Rob the bartender!
This place has upgraded and the bartender was a sweetheart great prices and pool-tables friendly family owned fun place to hangout.
They have a great waitress there named Donita. Nice for a little bar.
Fun place. Drinks reasonably priced. Bartenders very friendly and quick.
Best little dive bar in town!!! Cool drama free local hangout. Awesome live music on the Tiny stage on the weekends.
Only went cause it was friends birthday party other then that the bar scene is NOT my thing
Amazing dive bar. Once again I cannot believe how amazing this dive bar is. For love God, please dont ruin it for me you yuppies. Slow tables fast service. Bonus points if you know what a slow table is.
Got me a date here and hell we wasnt even related. Almost kissed her too but my wife come in and said I had ta get home for dinner. Could have stayed cause they sell some awesome hotdogs and sausages there, the drinks are poured freehand and priced so you can stay for the live bands that play every night.
Cheap drinks. Good Bartender. Live entertainment. Good spot to chill with friends.
Bartender ROBERT is awesome!! Makes the best Micheladas!!!
Best fun place to chill and drink. Its amazing, to have a drink and play pool and talk with kick ass peeps
Loved it. The owner and manager welcomed us and the mixologist were the best. We will be visiting again
Great spot with new management that is investing a lot into making what was a dark dingy dive bar into a great neighborhood bar with a thriving music venue.Safe and fun for the ladies. Lots of games,pool tables,juke box, OH! AND THE BEER AND A SHOT FOR $5 SPECIAL ALL DAY EVERY DAY!!!My new neighborhood bar for sure!!
It has so improved with the change of owners. The new owners are really turning the place around to making it a fun place to shoot pool, liston to music, and the customers are down to earth and easy going. Great place to party
I use to come here all the time the old staff were great funny, friendly now they have new staff that are rude, and impolite I went on my birthday and stood there waiting for a drink the staff worker didnt even acknowledge me this the second time two different staff workers... I use to love this place.
Bartender, Rob, made me the best drink that had basil in it....so tasty
(Update: the other night I met a super cool and gorgeous lady who actually called me the following day you guys now got five stars from me and Ill start coming around more to check out some of the Bands great place thanks guys) Pretty cool consider ing I live right across the street....place just needs some good lookin women.
Great deals
Great experience every time I come through! Stephanie, ladybug and Christy are great you get a 5 star bartender 7 days a week! Itouchtunes is on point everybody gets to play their jam. Good pool competition too.
Relaxed atmosphere. Good pours. Always fun..
I dont do reviews normally, but I had a reviewable experience today at this, my new favorite bar. Have you ever watched simpsons, family guy, how i met your mother or even cheers and wished there was a place you could go and feel at home or with friends. Drink a beer after work in good company? Well thats what I believe I have found in De Oro Mine Co.Prices are crazy good. $5 dollars for a shot AND a beer, every day, all day. They have pool tables, top of the line Juke Box, a nice long bar, plenty of tables and booths, an outside patio for smoking and even a table full of board games. I was not able to remember all the names of the owners and various employees on and off duty, nor their specific roles, but everyone I met went out of their way to shake my hand, learn my name and tell me all about the bar they are so rightfully proud of. The owner came over, gave me one of those stranger hugs and told me welcome home. I will definitely be coming here often from this point forward.
They have a variety of bands play there every Friday or Saturday. Call or view on Facebook to check out whats happening . Great music, people and bartenders are on point with the drinks.
The atmosphere is relaxing & laid back . The music is good . A great spot to hit for a nice relaxing nite out for drinksEvery time I go to this spot I have a great time. The staff is supper friendly
The bathrooms are so cool when you wash your hands you can see the opposite sex washing there hands
Excellent service, very nice place to good music
Absolutely the friendliest bar Ive ever gone to
LVE this bar.... Its my favorite dive bar by far. Safe, professional, owners are like family
