Origin of Belly Up

After months of searching for a location for their dream bar, Dave Hodges and Greg Gilholm acquire an old Quonset hut on Cedros Avenue in Solana Beach. The Quonset hut previously housed a waterbed manufacturing and showroom space. The space became available because the waterbed business had gone under. The dual meaning of “belly up” was not lost on Dave and Greg, who decided to name their bar The Belly Up Tavern.
