Are any San Diego bars open after 2am?

1 bar has a close later than 2am on record: Casablanca Lounge in Gaslamp Quarter. California law stops alcohol sales at 2am, so check with the place what a later hour means there.

Hours come from OpenStreetMap or from the business's own website, and are regular hours, not holiday hours. 6 shops and 2 salons and services with hours on record that run past 11pm are left off, because a late hour on a shop is more often a typing mistake than a night out. So is 1 coffee shop whose week on record ends between 2am and 6am. 9 listings on the map have stored hours that contradict themselves, and no page on this site prints those. Something wrong or missing? Write tohello@hottip.club. If the place is yours, claiming it is free, and then the hours are the ones you set.
