5.0 star rating
  4/16/2012

Neighborhood is an awesome local's spot. I love the vibe here and the fact that it's not in Gaslamp. I think that's what probably gives it that "neighborhood" feel. I've been here a handful of times, and even though I liked this spot before, I was…More »

Alright, there's no denying it... I love Syrah! This wine bar is just so freakin' cute. Any girly girl would appreciate the beauty that Syrah's got going on. I stopped by this past Friday night with a bunch of my girl friends and we all got Red…More »

    I love Syrah! It's a hidden spot in DT, but I wouldn't say it's a secret. A lot of people know about… Read more »

My girlfriends and I were planning a Girl's Night Out in honor of Yelp Drinks Week and decided the day of that we wanted to do dinner and drinks at Analog. I noticed that on Friday, they didn't open until 4pm so I wasn't sure if I would be able to…More »

Bare Back is awesome! Not only can you drink your life away for cheap, you can get a decent meal out of it too. I came in for lunch one day and let me just say, the lunch vibe is wayyyyy different than the nighttime vibe. It was mellow and not really…More »

Oh Quality Social, how come I never remember much when I'm here? Time flies and I just wander round and round the bar and onto the dance floor. I run into friends from college, friends from high school, friends from all over the place here at QS.…More »

Stopped by The Lincoln Room before starting our Pub Crawl on a Saturday night. I've always wanted to check this place out ever since it changed from Confidential. I loved the atmosphere at this bar. It wasn't too crowded and it was nice people…More »

If I'm in DTSD for the night, there's a good chance I'll be ending my night here. My friends love this place for the pizza. It's ooey, gooey, and delicious; especially if you're chocolate wasted (nah mean?)

Basic is tucked away on the outskirts of…More »

My first time here was this past Saturday night. We were passing through on our pub crawl and this was one of our stops. Before walking into The Tipsy Crow, I was definitely already tipsy. Honestly, I don't remember much of anything. I was time…More »

Perfect spot in Gaslamp for you to satisfy your sweet tooth. I usually come here on super random nights when my friends and I are just walking around, but today I stopped by to get my bf some ice cream hoping to cheer him up.

As we walked in, we were…More »

FLUXX is probably the only club worth talking about in SD. They've set the bar high with constant theme changes and hardcore screening process of who they let in. They think this is Vegas, so guys, suit up and get your hard earned money out.

I like…More »

3.0 star rating

I've been here like a million times. Not the trendiest spot in town, but the drinks are cheap considering this place is a huge dive. Star Bar is casual, and extremely well known for it's cheapness. People come here to get drunk on a budget. This past…More »

Yelp Drinks Week is what brought my girlfriends and I in last Friday night! Given that we were bar-hopping all over Gaslamp, this must've been our 7th stop of the night. We were probably only here for about 20 minutes or so and I'm sure you can…More »

Sway, how come everytime I come here the night is always a blur?

It's not Sway's fault, I just do a really good job at pre-partying, haha. By no means is Sway a "nice" swanky club, however, it is a good place to just hang out, drink, and dance. I've…More »
