  • Bar4
  • Pub3

Every one of the 8 is listed. Places named in print or on Reddit come first, the ones more publications have named ahead of the rest. Then places with hours on record, then the rest by name. The order is how much the map knows about a place, never how good anybody thinks it is.

Bottle shops in Downtown San Diego

2 bottle shops: liquor and wine to take away. Independent, and on the map, but not somewhere to sit down with a drink, so not counted with the bars.

Hours come from OpenStreetMap or from the business's own website. A place with no hours on record stays on the map and is never the app's answer, because the answer promises open now. Something wrong or missing? Write to hello@hottip.club. If the place is yours, claiming it is free.
