A spirited after-work and weekend crowd clusters around plush couches in the expansive lounge for cocktails and noshable bites including duck fat fries and Philly meatballs."

"A warm, comfortable San Diego breakfast restaurant with a stylish atmosphere, serving share plates. Breakfast and brunch items are served on weekends only, but it’s worth the wait. You’ll savor pork belly hash, house-made banana bread, bottomless mimosas, and even a short rib breakfast poutine!"

Interpreting the entire site for guests is the Junipero Serra Museum which houses many artifacts dealing with Spanish and Mexican heritage, colonization, the beginnings of customs within California and showcasing the lives of those who began it all.

In addition to the beautiful natural landscape, the park includes a reflecting pool, old windmills, adobe buildings, and other historic buildings."

"Wander through the historical ranch and former home of Hollywood actor Leo Carrillo. On weekends a well-informed guide will show you around, sharing the history of the estate and the area. The tours are the only way to get inside the buildings but if you prefer a self-guided walk there is plenty to see as you roam the well-maintained land."

Much of the ranch is perfectly preserved history, amidst a mystifying natural landscape."

"The Carlsbad Danish Bakery isn’t technically one of the best Carlsbad coffee shops, but is an amazing bakery!. And since coffee and pastries go together- I figured I would add it in.
