Home to one of the largest Pride celebrations in the country, the San Diego neighborhood of Hillcrest is where much of the city’s queer community has been traditionally centered, but in recent years, gayborhoods have also emerged in North Park, University Heights, Normal Heights and beyond, creating welcoming havens for locals and visitors in search of queer-friendly bars and clubs, as well as restaurants, theatres, retail shops, and other businesses.

Events

While last week’s holiday weekend may have been more about partying your face off, this weekend eases into summer with things like free jazz in the park, a Pride-themed yoga stretch on a rooftop, and a decidedly less relaxing but still totally cool tattoo convention.

This counter-serve Filipino joint in the West Village serves a small menu of Mexican-meets-Asian fusion food -- think burritos, tacos, steamed buns, and poke bowls. The drink selection is limited to a few beers and wine, plus margaritas, house punch, and sangria. There are a few counter seats, so the spot is perfect for a quick solo dinner or a grab-and-go lunch. Don't miss the brilliantly purple ube ice cream for dessert.
