Top, Best & Fun Rooftop Bars in Old Town

"The wine selection here is highly various on a global level. Feel like you’re on a vineyard in Spain or gazing at mountains in New Zealand while sampling wines from these lands. If you’re a true wine lover, take note: Wednesdays all bottles are half off!"

"Another mainstay of La Jolla’s dining scene is Nine-Ten, which in addition to boasting some of the best fine dining in San Diego also has one of the best wine lists."

"If you're wanting to impress someone make reservations here a bit before sunset. All of their outdoor seating offers you a scenic ocean…”more"

"This is a great choice for a casual lunch, family dinner or group outing. Puesto is an artisanal Mexican La Jolla restaurant that offers a little more of a full-service feeling. The colorful atmosphere keeps things fun and cosmopolitan, and the menu is a great combo of light starters and classic tacos."

"Bar Dynamite's interesting history includes a former life as Club Nagasaki which catered mostly to San Diego's thriving aerospace industry. It became Bar Dynamite and in the 80s and 90s it was pretty much a dive bar for people who liked an early tipple and local bands. In 1999, a radical shift to underground DJs and cutting-edge technology overhauled the vibe into what it is today, 7 days a week."

"Start the day with donuts and coffee from Nomad Donuts, which will fuel you without leaving you too full for a day of action. Catch a morning surf lessons from Surfari Surf School at north Mission Beach, and enjoy some prime people-watching on the Pacific Beach Boardwalk while you catch your breath. You’ll have worked up quite an appetite, so sate it the way a local surfer would—with fish tacos from Oscars Mexican Seafood."

"Satisfy your sweet tooth at North Park’s Nomad Donuts, which landed a spot in City Beat’s “Best Donuts in San Diego” roundup. Although not exclusively vegan, they do offer a number of non-dairy options, including ube taro, blueberry lavender, and Thai tea flavors. The venue itself is also delightful: a cherry-red, vintage double-decker bus set within a peaceful courtyard."

"Visit this North Park shop for globally-inspired doughnut flavors like ube taro coconut and Thai tea. Montreal-style bagels and sandwiches are also available. Open regular hours for takeout and pickup or delivery via Postmates or DoorDash."

"Clearly they’re Very Good at everything they bake here since it’s a 3rd generation run bakery. Recipes and their old-fashioned baking style have been passed down for so long; which is why they’re here to stay. Of course they have the classic cookie flavors (choc chip, peanut butter, oatmeal and others), but they’re famous for their daily smiley face and surfing cookies."

"A photo posted by VG Donut & Bakery (@vgdonut) on Dec 30, 2016 at 8:25am PST. You didn’t grow up in Encinitas without meeting up at VG’s for a donut!. They have some of the best donuts and pastries and also specialize in cakes."

"Fresh doughnuts, pastries, cookies, cakes and bread are available for pickup. Phone orders are encouraged. New temporary hours are 5 a.m."

"In 2011, Joshua Pavlick decided to turn a part of his home into an art exhibition space. And while that sounds like a wild idea, it’s paid off big time for Pavlick, local artists, and the community as a whole. Helmuth Projects was designed with the idea of helping lesser-known artists display their work to the masses."
