Well, at least they have alcohol

It's a great place if you already have a girfriend or you're under 21. Oops. The female bartenders are 80's has-beens and don't know it. Someone should tell them that hot is hot. And Mervyn's is hiring. Just pour the drinks and stop drooling in them.
Other than that I had a great time watching the off-duty cops hang out, drink for free, pay attention to the pathetic bartender, and then call in everyone's plates who leave.
So, have a great time at McGovern's in San Mateo. The cops are the big out of shape guys in the corner watching you!!!
p.s. I just love their accents there. Oh, and if you want to buy stuff there's a bartender there that sells them. Just ask for ASA
- Pros: There is alcohol there if you need to stiop on a long journey
- Cons: Many many

Best downtown bar
by svobodae at Citysearch
I live in downtown San Mateo and have spent plenty of time in the local watering holes. McGovern's is the best. It's quite popular but it's not trendy. Tbat's a good thing. You'll meet plenty of good people there. All the bartenders are fun to talk to. Seamus, the owner, has a great sense of humor.
