About The Nolen

The Nolen offers a charming rooftop bar with a relaxed atmosphere, perfect for small groups and featuring cozy fireplaces. The service is generally prompt and attentive, although some customers have experienced occasional organizational challenges. Visitors can enjoy $9 cocktails during the popular happy hour or try brunch options like the well-received BLT and pomegranate mimosas. The rooftop provides stunning views of the San Diego skyline and Petco Park, creating a picturesque setting. Customers praise the nice aesthetics and lively vibe, with incredible views of the city, especially during golden hour. Menu items like the truffle fries, spicy meatballs, and shredded beef tacos are noted for their great taste and presentation, although some guests find certain items like the $18 meatballs slightly overpriced.

Overall, The Nolen is considered a hidden treasure and a classy rooftop destination with a killer happy hour, ideal for grabbing drinks before or after a Padres game, or even during a game to experience the cheers from the stands. Guests should be aware of the 90-minute table reservation policy and the fact that a 20% gratuity is already included, which some feel is not clearly communicated. Despite some service issues, The Nolen remains a cool spot for a first date or a night out on the town.

Good experience overall. However, service was a bit slow and we were one on three tables. We weren’t told about the bottom mimosas until I asked the manager. On the flip side they did adjust the bill once I inquired so I kudos for them for being flexible and customer oriented! I will def try them again!! The food is amazing and the drinks were great.
