OK, this SGV dive bar favorite of mine is just 2 miles from the Bahooka. There's no Tikis and it's not quite mid-century (I think it opened in the early 1970's).
Here's why I like it:
1. Cheap drinks - Mixed cocktails are $3.50.
2. Classic "Old Man" bar - Old men dispensing out their old man philosophy.
3. SGV dive bar completism - It has the same owner as Embers and Poor Denny's.
4. Near my old high school - I run into former classmate burn-outs. Not only don't they remember me, they don't remember high school. That's how much dope they smoked.

The Crest Lounge is located at 5921 Temple City Blvd, Temple City
