Default Papas and Beers Anniversary: Jul 31 - Aug 2



O
nly a 20 minute drive from San Diego and is the largest Beach Club on the West Coast with over 50,000 sq. ft. of fun in the sand. We started the party in Baja, Mexico so Papas &Beer will make your sure you have an unforgettable time when you visit us as there is no other place to be. Papas & Beer is not only the largest beach club on the West Coast, but it is also one of the most famous and respected Nightclubs in North America.

Actually, it's Papas, as in potatoes. Just wondering if anyone knows the history. There are three of these places in Baja. Rosarito, Ensenada, and La Paz. I assume theres no copyright on the name, because there are similarly named places all over the States. I ask about the history because for some reason, I thought the original was in Ensenada. Perhaps not, since I recall being in Ensenada in the early 70s and the prime spot was Hussongs. In any event, my sources tell me that more cruise passengers buy Papas & Beer merchandise than anything else.

Thanks for sharing that - I removed the apostrophe. Goes to show how often I go out to these places...

If it's any consolation, I have never been to either Papas or Hussongs.

Maybe you could get the franchise for San Quintin!

I doubt San Quintin is high on their list for targeted communities to expand their operation but these days, little surprises me.

would be nice though...
