"The San Diego Padres' home is one of the few stadiums in America with a water view. And the non-baseball-related appeal doesn't stop there. Local craft brew options are stellar, with more than 40 varieties of poured at stalls and restaurants around the stadium, which include the Stone Brewing Company beer garden on the upper deck, and more than 50 dining options."
"Dare I say that Petco Park is one of the coolest ballparks in the MLB. Part of the reason is that it’s built around the historic Western Metal Supply Co. building, hosts some of the best sight lines in baseball, and boasts panoramic water and skyline views from some seats. Go of course to take in a Major League Baseball game, but that’s not the only treat."
"Opened in 2004, the stadium was built as part of a redevelopment plan of the aging downtown area of San Diego."
"Spend a long morning in Old Town State Historic Park, exploring the adobe buildings and browsing the many gift shops. You’ll be tempted to sit down for a Mexican lunch at one of the tourist restaurants, but save your appetite for a more genuine experience at El Indio, just up the street in Mission Hills."
"There are several historic buildings to be found, including five adobes, a hotel dating back to 1870, and a reconstructed courthouse and stable. Educational events are frequent occurrences, from theatrical performances to blacksmith demonstrations to tours."

Chow down on a large selection of seafood, including crab legs, shrimp and scallops and serve yourself a side of sushi to go with it. End your meal with a delightful dessert such as crème brûlée, cheesecake or perhaps some Italian gelato."
"It's a strip mall setting with a five-star menu and reservations are a must. It's packed…all the time. Order a cooked entrée if you must—there's plenty of teriyaki marinade in the kitchen—but that's really, really not what you come for."

"The floating walkway that cuts through the brewing tanks is a highlight of this space — you really feel like you’re in the thick of a working brewery in this taproom. It’s unassuming and very chill, and the beers on tap — a list that includes a lot of IPAs — number more than a dozen."
