History

Back when Mission Valley was a dairy farm, milk and cheese products we sold out of our building. In 1961 it was transformed into a roadhouse bar called the Palamino Club. We're told it had a dance floor and Naugahyde booths surrounding it. After that it was turned into an Irish bar known as the Blarney Stone, the first Blarney stone in San Diego. It went through a few more name changes one was the Dublin Pub, another was The Clubhouse until it became JTs in 2001. We have been blessed by large diverse group of regular patrons from the neighborhood, many highly respected members of the military who have come and gone through the years and the energetic vibe from our proximity to San Diego State University that keeps us exciting every night. Whether it be by the luck of the Irish or through the hard work of our friendly and welcoming staff we are thankful for all of those who have found us and continue to support us through the years!

Beto runs his kitchen and has a huge menu but I suggest any of the tater tots plates. He is closed on Mondays.. Every bartender there is awesome and knows their drinks. Happy hour is everyday...

Cool after-plan if you started with dinner at Rosati's a few doors down. Luke is a super helpful, personable bartender. I believe he mostly works Saturdays. Karaoke scene is pretty chill compared...
