CLUB
Think Vegas in the Gaslamp. San Diego's hottest dance club has amazing design with ro-
tating themes (jellyfish and mermaids, anyone?), DJs spinning electronic dance music and
the occasional celeb sighting. Even a crowded dance floor, expensive cocktails ($17 vodka
and Red Bull) and sometimes steep cover charges can't stop this place from being jam-
packed.
Dublin Square
IRISH PUB
Guinness? Check. Corned beef? Check. But what sets this rambling pub apart is its selec-
tion of nightly music. Try to go when the band Fooks is playing - check website for sched-
ule.
Quality Social
DIVE BAR
It sounds like an oxymoron: an upscale dive bar. This concrete box has big windows out to
the street, loud music and lots of beers, but you can snack on charcuterie and artisanal
cheeses. Look also for $6 shots and cocktails like 'Not Your Grandma's Gin & Tonic.'
Star Bar
BAR
When you've had it with gentrified style and you're looking for a historic dive, head to
this old-school bar decorated year-round with Christmas lights for the cheapest drinks in
the Gaslamp.
East Village
While out-of-towners frolic happily in the Gaslamp Quarter, locals and hipsters instead
head east.
