The Tipsy Crow
The Tipsy Crow is a bar in San Diego spread across three floors, from the main bar on the ground level to a cozy lounge called the Nest upstairs and an underground area below. The space blends vintage and modern design elements throughout, with areas for games, music, and different zones for relaxing or dancing.
The building dates to 1874 and is known as the Spencer-Ogden Building, the oldest structure in the Gaslamp Quarter continuously owned by one family. The upstairs lounge once stored firecrackers that exploded in 1887, marking an important moment in the site's past.
The name reflects a carefree spirit that defines how the place is used today as a gathering spot for locals and visitors. People come here to socialize, mark special moments, and be part of the lively downtown community that makes San Diego's historic district thrive.
The bar can become crowded on weekends, so arriving early helps secure a good spot and move around comfortably. Check their social media to learn about upcoming events and specials before you visit.
The bar features a dynamic price display that lowers alcohol prices every few minutes from Monday through Saturday, creating an interactive experience for guests. On Tuesdays, visitors can order the signature lobster roll with a drink at a special reduced price.
