Fifth and Rose

On our list of the best cocktail bars in San Diego.

Off the lobby of the Pendry hotel in the Gaslamp Quarter, Fifth & Rose pairs rich stone and a black-and-white color palette with crimson details, hot pink lobby chairs, and candles and fresh roses on every table, built around the idea of a well-furnished living room. Guided High West whiskey tastings run Sunday afternoons, and a weekend Boozy Tea service swaps the usual finger sandwiches for tea-inflected cocktails and small bites. Thursday through Saturday, last call comes after midnight.
