32 Best Pubs in San Diego

“Great Brunch and John is an amazing bartender.“

“We are from out of town and decided to stop by since it’s close to our rental. I cannot recommend this place enough. The food is so good and the service is amazing. I ordered “To The Bitter End” that was created by our bartender, Janeli. That drink is fantastic and she (Janeli) took great care of us. My husband had been traveling all day and was so hungry. We are so glad we stopped in. Thank you so much!“

“My wife and I were in San Diego for two weeks and stopped in a couple of times. The food, drinks and especially the staff were all fantastic and we really enjoyed the game room. The day before we flew home we decided to get takeout for the flight home. We ordered one of our faves, the grilled chicken bahn mi burrito, this thing is MASSIVE. We asked if it could be wrapped in foil so we could put it in a ziplock bag to travel with us. Everybody was so happy to accommodate us and asked questions about where we were flying to. We started eating that burrito after take off and did'nt finish it until we were approaching TF Green Airport in Rhode Island three thousand miles later, that was one hell of a burrito. Thanks so much Harbor Town Pub, you're the best and we especially loved the note on our take out bag.“

“Seating next to the koi pond was the best. Appetizer never showed up. I knew that was happening when the table next to us, who ordered well after we did got our appetizer and we didn't. Thankful it was not on our bill. Mistakes happen.“

“Great draft and bottle beer selections. Tom's torta is the best. Extremely highly recommended!!!“

“Was recommended by a friend, the girls & I decided to check it out for our GF's surprise B-Day gathering. Service was great. VENMO & ZELLE accepted for food orders. Good music variety, just didn't get a chance to check out the patio & pool table. It does fill up quick so it's recommended to show up early for the karaoke & parking.“

“A great place to get a drink or a snack before the theater. it's a bit expensive but that's what you should expect at Balboa Park. We arrived 45 minutes before the start of the play last Saturday and were delighted to discover they had created a heated patio where you could sip your drink.“

“Place is fire. So many beers to choose from you don't even know where to start. I'd say ask the bartenders to pick your drinks for you. It's funner that way.“

“Great place to come for a few beers and good food. They have a really good selection of beers to try and also limited edition beers, which I enjoyed.

I also ate here and the Mac and cheese is highly recommended alongside the good service.“

“all is good!“

“We came here for the first time 2 years ago, and now we’re hooked! The locals are super friendly, and the food is inexpensive and good!“

“Passed through while on tour and had to stop at the Philly bar to feel like we’re back home! Best vibes and even better staff and brews and pretzels!!! Such a great environment, wish we could have stayed longer! Can’t wait to come back :)“

“I have found a legitimate broker who has helped me in so many ways in the aspect of forex & cryptocurrency. At first, I was really skeptical that it won't work but I still kept the faith going until I saw a recommendation about Mrs Craig Vanessa who changed my financial status from grass to grace. Once again I'm really grateful for your help and support towards me and my family in this tough time of the year.

“Best burger ever. Juicy and perfect, don’t mess with it. Thick slice of tomato and onion lettuce mayo and sesame bun. It’s awesome!!!“

“Great place for a drink and quick snack after work.“

“I stopped by late at night for a final pair of beers, and they really hooked it up. Rosemary, the bartender, is like the most wonderful grandma you could imagine, and I’ll definitely come back to see her next time I’m in town. We arrived very late on a Thursday, and they took great care of us. The place truly embodies everything you’d hope for from a genuine Irish pub!“

“When the waiter is from Cornwall and the manager is from Scotland it is awesome to be there with my roots.“

Drinks wre amazing. Duno what brand of champagne they had but it was the BEST champagne I've EVER had.
10/10“

“Rule 1: The bartender is always right. Rule 2: See Rule 1.“

“When I worked there I would hoist the flag first thing every morning. In the evening the commander and I would retire the colors, fold them neatly and shake hands“

“Great food, great service and cool decor. Loved the menu and the staff. Looking forward to coming back!“

“I’ve been to Wonderland Pub four times now and every visit has been great. The front room views are second to none — it’s one of the best sunset spots around. The food is legit good, especially the chicken tenders (some of the best I’ve had anywhere). The cocktail options are plentiful, and today’s bartender toast at sunset was such a fun, unique touch. A laid-back spot that always feels special.“

“5 out of 5 for stars.... best hidden gem in San Diego“

“I love Nicole the bartender“

“It was wicked awesome,for sure come back“

“One of my go to place in San diego
Best beers in town and good appetizers to pair with.
Very friendly staff
The one in Sorrento valley is very quiet and beautiful location and another one in 4S ranch which is nicer too.“

“Patrick's is a fun place. We've now been for Karaoke night, when they had live music, and just to hang on our way to the baseball game. It's such a good time. Drinks are cold. Lexi is amazing- so attentive and friendly! I highly recommend checking this place out. Also, order their house peanut butter whiskey shot!“

“Aquarius is great place to hang out and listen to live music and grab yourself some tacos and some fresh air right on the water.It's not got water views from the restaurant.But it's over by the marina village docks , and the music is a low cover charge , outdoor seating , and then they have indoor performers as well.“

“Just a great place to go watch the game and get some good food.“

“Great food and Bloody Mary’s!“
