Thai Recipe Bistro is a must and within walking distance of our guesthouse.

Tuck Shop, also locally owned, changes their menu based upon the season and the chef. Unique cocktails, an extensive wine list, and attentive service make the Tuck Shop our place to go to for a special treat. Next door to the Tuck Shop is a great breakfast cafe. You will not be disappointed. Weekend brunch is now being offered. Walk over then cross the street and check out our local mart, Sunshine Market.

Love the coffee at Duza's and their baked goods. Each meal is made to order and if you want, you can watch the chef create his magic. Fresh ingredients are a given. Outdoor seating is available all year round.

Vegan and vegetarian are what makes this a local favorite spot. It is busy during lunch time but well worth the wait. Call ahead for carry out. We are addicted to the Big Wac and Buffalo Wings.

Lots of options for Pho, Spring Rolls, Banh Mi, plus drinks & happy-hour specials. It is not a traditional Vietnamese Restaurant, but, rather a contemporary restaurant that features Vietnamese items and Vietnamese inspired dishes.

Drinks & Nightlife

We like this place for its outdoor patio and happy hour specials. They offer a full food menu and switch up the draft beer. Walk over, it's a good place to relax and meet some neighbors.

This is a great brewery that constantly rotates over 40 brews. Weekly specials like Thursday Tator Tat night and Tuesday is TV Dinner night are examples of how Angels Trumpet creates menus around beer.

Indoor fun, food truck food, and good music.... what's not to love at The Duce? The setting is an old warehouse that houses pool tables, ping-pong tables, corn hole, and a boxing ring. This is a good place to host parties.

Essentials

It is hard to describe Sunshine Market to someone who does not live in Coronado. This little market has just about everything you might need and is way more convenient than Safeway. We love this Coronado cornerstone. The owners are kind and funny. Need Ben and Jerrys or a lime or garlic powder or a Coke? They have such a selection of last minute things.
