You can tell just from the looks of Paul's that this is the kind of bar that your grandfather and your grandfather's grandfather probably frequented in their day. The interior looks kind of like the recreation room of a Moose Lodge: lots of wood, a sprawling bar with attentive bartenders who are more than happy to make small talk and a pool table that's seen better days. But because drinks are cheap and there's a high kitsch factor, this bar is a standout among the 6AM-2AM drinking establishments in Orange County. But don't expect a lot of extracurricular activities like live bands, guest DJs or girls dancing on table tops. Paul's is a no-frills dive, but with '70s-era Americana -- kind of like a dive where you would find Archie Bunker sharing a pitcher with the boys.

    If you have never been to Pauls and you like the dive bar atmosphere then this is the place for you. The bartenders are super cool and never let your drink get all the way empty, the coctails are cheap and stiff and the crowd is so diverse you just never know what your going to get. If you don't get their early, you won't get a seat at the bar. And during the Orange Street fair, forget about any seat. The place is packed. The only down fall is they do not sell any type of food.
