“ Love this place. IYKYK Never miss it if you're on North Island. And read the rules! You can thank me later. ”
“ After the release of "Top Gun Maverick" in 2022. I began some digging on filming locations. What I found was; the bar scenes for the film, although fictional, were inspired from the iBar. If you've been to the iBar, you can clearly see the similarities. What a surreal place the iBar is and what it's become. ”
“ Awesome. Good booze. Good service. Good ambiance and vibe. Place is pretty much a museum of west coast naval aviation. Respect. Highly recommended if you can get there. ”
