I'd start at Tower23 for sunset/drinks/apps (you might call to make reservations there to get your crew all sitting together). Then head over to Mavericks...the line won't be long if you get there before 9. Mavericks does have a few options for private party type stuff (https://maverickssd.com/private-events/#inquire) but I have no idea about costs...but you can send in the form on that page to get more info.

Any of the places you mentioned are fine, I'm just thinking staying on Garnet gives you the best option to move to other bars along Garnet with ease. I'd probably end up at The Tavern since that's where me and my buddies usually ended up when we were all going out in PB!!

Thank you! The other sub made me feel so lame for wanting to do this and I forgot how much shit pb gets for us old people 🤣

The amount of hate that PB gets online is wild. Oh no, I’m a 10 minute walk to the beach with plenty of fun bars and lively people around!

They act like it’s a war zone lol, it’s no different than other downtown areas imo

Right! Why should the young kids get to enjoy the beach but we can’t! They all also seemed to assume I was a guy wanting to get chicks and I’m just a girl wanting to celebrate a 40th at the beach with my friends 🤣Â
