Absolute vibes
2x James Beard Nominated Restaurant serving food in a chill, unpretentious atmosphere.
Texas BBQ + Thai Curry
Nestled in the perfect neighborhood, Bar Loretta offers fantastic cocktails, a perfect vibe and really solid food. It’s just a great place to hang and a great jumping off point for fun stuff around the area pre or post visit.
Cocktail Program
Is this super touristy? Yes. Is this still mandatory because there are parts of it that are just pretty cool to walk by? Also, yes.
It’s a beautiful jaunt and the further away you get from the super touristy areas, the more beautiful the views get.
It’s not everyday you get to experience a UNESCO World Heritage Site and explore the rich history and culture of the Spanish colonial missions. *PS - There are 4 missions, but I’d start at Mission San Jose (there are ranger led tours and this is there “HQ”)
Intermingling of Spanish & Native American Cultures
The Historic Pearl’s got everything from Michelin recommended restaurants to full fledged open air farmers markets on the weekends. It’s where people go to eat, shop and drink.
