Many of our favorite watering holes continue to struggle with staffing, so check hours of operation before heading out, and above all, be patient and tip generously. Remember that private businesses have the right to create specific COVID guidelines to protect themselves and their staff-so if someone asks you to put a mask on when going to the restroom, don’t be a jerk about it. Now that California’s mask mandate has been lifted, it’s easy to forget that COVID-19 is still around. Whether you want to spend a quiet evening catching up with friends by the fire pits, throw a lavish blowout at a carousel bar, or romance someone special in a sexy speakeasy, San Diego has the perfect vibe for all your tippling adventures.
San Diego’s bar scene continues to amaze us with its variety-in addition to being the capital of craft beer, we’ve got sparkling rooftop showstoppers and luxe lounges, as well as great sports bars to watch your favorite teams and low-key dive bars too.
