I don’t know about you, but we locals partied our faces off this summer in San Diego.
From the huge
Intervention season to the opening of genre-defying
Syrah,
Side Bar and
Voyeur, it was a non-stop party this summer. It’s sad but true that all good things must come to an end. In the aftermath of an epic Labor Day Weekend, there is much new in San Diego nightlife.
The End of an Era
KIN Lounge at Manchester Grand Hyatt threw its last hoorah Saturday, September 12. KIN’s spacious outdoor setting under the stars, overlooking the sparkling Bay, was a must-hit destination for San Diego party-goers all summer long. KIN Lounge is now closed for its 2009 season. View
party pics.
Intervention at Hard Rock Hotel San Diego hosted its last rooftop pool party on Sunday, September 13 – view
party pics. Intervention is now closed for the ’09 season and will undoubtedly return better than ever April 2010. Discover why Intervention remains our favorite in:

Eastlake Tavern & Bowl coming to an ally near you. From the creators of
Gaslamp Tavern and
East Village Tavern and Bowl comes the new –
and only? – chic spot in East Lake. With an invite-only grand opening celebration on September 16, the new East Lake Tavern & Bowl will soon bring sports bar appeal and trendy bowling entertainment to East Lake locals and traveling fans.
Football Season is Back! The only good thing about the end of rooftop pool parties is the beginning of game day specials! Here’s a sample of what you have to look forward to…
The Fleetwood brings the heat every Saturday and Sunday with such drink specials as $2 Mimosas, $3 Coors Lights drafts and $5 Bloody Marys. Come Monday night, Fleetwood is still going strong. Expect great food specials on signature dishes such as Flat Iron Steak Skewers and BLTA Wraps with $3 draft beers.
