The San Diego Padres have a legitimate chance to make the playoffs this year. Omni San Diego Hotel at The Ballpark wants to be there for the postseason run, too.
Downtown San Diego’s Omni is the only hotel in the country literally connected to a Major League Baseball stadium. The property has a package that includes deluxe accommodations, a welcome amenity and that exclusive Skybridge access.
The Omni also has two revamped food-and-beverage options. Ace Porter has Game Day Bites that include “Designated Hitters” snacks and “In The Glove” main courses. There’s also the poolside Tortuga rooftop bar for pre- and post-gaming — preferably for after the Padres top off the Los Angeles Dodgers . More info.
Sip ‘N’ Dip At Mister A’s
The iconic rooftop eatery Mister A’s has turned 65 but he ain’t showing signs of slowing down. Dig the panoramic views every night, and come for the Sunday Roast ($55); Maine Lobster Monday ($30); Tuesday Toast ($20-$25), dubbed the “ultimate girl dinner; or Wagyu Wednesday ($25). In the bar and lounge: Sips & Dips Thursdays; and a three-course A’s Bar Prix Fixe Menu ($65) on Fridays and Saturdays from 5 to 6:30 p.m. More info.
FEEL LIKE A WOMAN
In honor of country diva Shania Twain turning 60, Ginger’s (the underground bar beneath Barleymash in the Gaslamp Quarter) is holding a Country Karaoke Night on Thursday, August 28, from 9 p.m. to midnight. Dress country, be prepared to show off your pipes and order a That Don’t Impress Me Much (Codigo Blanco Tequila, cucumber, lime, agave, tajin) or a Still The One (Codigo Reposado, espresso, sugar, hazelnut foam).
