Happy hour is offered Monday – Friday from 3:30 – 6:30 pm and features a ½ priced bar food menu, $5 glasses of red and white wine and $2 off all beers.

Fairweather is a tropical rooftop bar where the bold patterned tiles, open-air bar channels, lush living walls, creative drinks and mounds of citrus scream mid-century culture of San Diego. A canopy of vibrantly colored nautical ropes adorn the seating space which also has a live music platform with pre-concert facilities."
"Located just by Petco Park, the intimate and laidback Fairweather rooftop bar is somewhat a hidden gem. Mediterranen-styled in decoration, the rooftop terrace is a great and relaxing spot to enjoy the warm San Diego climate and cool views over the stadium and the greenery of the Park at the Park. The rooftop bar offers unique and hand-crafted cocktails, as well as a gastropub style food menu."
"It does an admirable job of sweeping people off to island paradises with stiff mai tais, piña coladas, and zombies, along with plenty of other fruity concoctions that come with useless umbrellas."
"Talking about the most popular museum in San Diego, the USS Midway Museum is the only fine name that is topping the chart for years. USS Midway Museum is the longest-serving aircraft carrier that is now floating at the Navy Pier in downtown San Diego. The aircraft carrier has originally served between 1945 to 1992 but is now home to 29 restored aircraft, two flight simulators, over 60 war and military exhibits, a gift shop and a café proudly in name of a museum."
"The USS Midway Museum is a historic naval aircraft carrier museum that houses an extensive collection of aircraft and military history. The USS Midway was the United States’ longest-serving aircraft carrier of the 20th century, from 1945 to 1992. It was the only carrier to serve the entire length of the Cold War and beyond."
"With over sixty exhibits, this historic aircraft carrier also houses twenty-seven restored aircraft. The USS Midway, named after the Battle of Midway in 1942, was constructed only 17 months. While it didn’t see World War II’s action, its armored flight decks give visitors an at-sea experience without having to leave port."
"Coronado’s rich and complex history is a fascinating subject even for those that don’t consider themselves history buffs.

"For a celebratory upscale meal in San Diego’s Gaslamp District, you won’t be disappointed at The Oceanaire Seafood Room. Great for a date night, the dining room feels like you’re stepping aboard a luxury ocean liner from years past. Start with the Grand Shellfish Tower — an array of fresh crab legs, jumbo shrimp, and other ocean goodies served atop crushed ice in an impressive display."

"With so many Ocean Beach restaurants to choose from, it’s hard to pick a #1 spot, but if you can only make it to one place, head straight to Mike’s Taco Club. It’s appropriately quirky and down-to-earth, super close to the water, and they serve phenomenal tacos. They’re salty (but not too salty), packed with flavor, and so completely satisfying."
"Though small, Mike’s Taco Club is a local favorite among Ocean Beach locals, who crave for it almost every week."
