  • Beach at W Hotel

    The ultimate in cool, this spot is the next best thing if you can’t make it to the beach. Relax under the stars outside on comfortable banquette seating, order a martini and dig your toes into the heated sand, or go for a Mai Tai in a private, candle-lit cabana.

  • Considered one of the best live music venues in the county, old Quonset huts have been acoustically altered to showcase almost famous and famous bands.

  • A piano bar, a drag queen nun calling bingo, and outlandish karaoke.

  • Brockton Villa

    Lunch is best, when you can enjoy the view from this historic bungalow. Enjoy chicken curry, Moroccan halibut, and salads.

  • Start the morning with crêpes, omelets, or a “tower of bagel” (see Brockton Villa).

  • Choose from 28 varieties of omelets.

  • Try the pumpkin waffles and French toast here.

  • Café Bassam

    An eclectic assortment of paintings, rifles, and old photos decorate the walls of this Gaslamp Quarter café. Order your special brew of espresso or tea and take it to a table to watch the world pass by. Glass jars hold over 100 different types of tea and coffee for sale.

  • Restaurant by day, happy-hour bar by sunset, and mainstream punk club by night, everyone from Mission Beach’s boardwalk packs in and spills onto the rooftop patio overlooking the ocean for a good time.

  • Casbah

    Underground alternative rock rules at this dark and grungy club. Famous and future bands turn up the decibels every night of the week. Past headliners have included Alanis Morissette, the Smashing Pumpkins, and Nirvana.
