Bar Story
The 3rd Corner Wine Shop & Bistro is San Diego's most brilliant wine concept — a sophisticated neighborhood restaurant where a retail wine shop with up to 1,000 bottles lives inside the dining room itself. The premise is simple and transformative: choose any bottle from the retail shelves and enjoy it at your table for just $7 corkage. Founded by Ed Moore, who first built a successful wine club at his nearby Thee Bungalow Restaurant before creating this unique hybrid format in Ocean Beach, The 3rd Corner has been San Diego's old-school haunt for wine aficionados and newcomers alike for decades. Named by OpenTable as one of the "Top 50 Restaurant Wine Lists in America." The menu is a true California Bistro — duck confit, baked Humboldt Fog cheese, mussels and fries, pork schnitzel, shrimp scampi, and perfect escargot bourguignon. Happy hour most afternoons, all day on Tuesdays. Indoor seating, bar, lounge area, and a beautiful outdoor patio. The best wine selection in Point Loma — and possibly all of San Diego.
