619 Spirits has become one of my favorite spots in North Park. It's the kind of place that's easy to spend a few hours at because there's more to it than just good food and drinks. The vodka cocktails are great! They're refreshing, well-balanced. The food is pretty good, and I appreciate that the portions are generous enough to actually leave you feeling full. Their daily $6.19 happy hour menu is great too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is what really sets this place apart. It has a fun indoor-outdoor layout that makes it a great spot to hang out, especially on the weekends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also host events like comedy shows and other entertainment, which keeps things interesting and gives you another reason to come back. One feature I don't think gets enough attention is the selection of board games available for guests. It's a simple touch, but it makes the space feel more welcoming and encourages people to relax, stay awhile, and have fun with friends. read more

I've been wanting to check out this place and I finally made it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a very cute place. I like the ambience. It's pretty chill.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have board games for entertainment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I like their back patio. It looks very cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The waiters were nice and attentive. I gave 4 stars but it's more like 3.5. The happy hour menu looked great to me. You can't beat $6.19 cocktails. I ordered a melon drop and it tasted ok, not much alcohol taste, kinda plain. I also ordered honey Brussel sprouts. I understand it's "honey" but the Brussel sprouts were literally soaked in honey, not just a hint of honey. I think they'll taste so much better if they use less honey and add some balsamic to balance out the sweetness or maybe add a hint of spicy to it. I also tried buffalo chicken wings. The taste wasn't that spicy or not a lot of flavor. I wish their food could be better as i really liked the ambience. read more

I been wanting to come here for the longest! Finally made it here, and a time was sure had!! The menu is super confusing but we just said mommies without children on a time crunch before they get off school! Lol. $38 mimosa tower with 3 bottles. Count us sold! The Brussel sprouts were crispy and not overly sauced, def a bar food to order and pick on while drinking! read more

We were in the North Park area and chose to eat dinner at 619 Spirits. Parking as per usual is not convenient in the area but it is what it is. We got our obligatory Old Fashioneds and sadly they were not good. Wife and I thought it might have been the ice cube that gave it a funky flavor. As far as the food we had not complaints as each of the items we ordered were delicious. We started with perfectly fried brussel sprouts. The only thing missing in them is a protein like bacon or pancetta or chorizo otherwise they were yummy. My chicken sandwich was perfectly fried and the aioli and pickles brought the sandwich together. Wife's carnitas tacos also were delish. Except for the cocktails, we enjoyed our time at 618 Spirits. read more

I come here pretty often. The bartenders are super friendly and the happy hour menu is great! Different days have different food specials too which is the best. Drinks are good too! Highly recommend for games and happy hour/hang outs read more

Absolutely loved it. The drinks were a delight and so well made. Happy hour was a dream. The tater tots were so crispy. Street parking, however north park has a structure not far in walking distance. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good vibes, even though was World Cup season, very enjoyable ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Scarlet was our server and she was amazing!! Freddie too! Loved the team! read more

After watching a hockey game yesterday, my friend and I ate at 619 Spirits North Park, which was still decorated with Christmas lights inside and out. It was my friend's first visit at 619 Spirits. [[HIGHLIGHT]]619 Spirits has a relaxed vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server Jake was excellent. Jake checked on us often, even though we only ordered the free steak dinner for two. We got chimichurri-style New York steaks cooked medium rare, with an unexpected side of fries. The food was flavorful, though the chimichurri sauce grew increasingly salty with each bite. Overall, my friend and I had a wonderful time together. Thankful for the gifted meal! ** Fun fact- 619 Spirits is San Diego's 1st urban craft distillery. read more

Nothing like celebrating a free steak meal for two! Came here with one of my gfs and had an enjoyable night. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The aura of this bar was very welcoming, open and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you Jake for being an attentive and a great service to us, you knew we came for our free voucher and didn't belittle us nor lack your service. And comps to the chef because when you think of steaks at bars, it's typically a 50/50 experience. You don't assume top quality and cooked to perfection meals right off the bat; but at 619 spirits, I have no complaints. Well in honesty though, the chimichurri was strong in sodium after a few bites, but it still tasted great and had every drip of it lol and the steak was cooked as requested! And that's rare! And that's how I love my steaks- medium rare! It was top tier to my tastebuds! Cheers! read more

We were looking for a quick bite to eat before going to grab drinks and decided to stop into 619 Spirits North Park. It wasn't too busy so we were able to walk in and seat ourselves. - PARKING - North Park is always tough with finding a parking spot but we just circled around until we got one walkable distance away. - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - We were greeted promptly after sitting down and since we were waiting on friends to join, we delayed ordering but the staff was very attentive the moment they came in. After ordering we got our food pretty soon after. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's dimly lit inside but you can still see one another across the tables. They also have sports playing on the TVs.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] - FOOD - Honey Brussels Sprouts: Pretty crispy but it was slightly overly honey-ed for me. Some clumps had way too much honey and I felt like I was just getting a spoonful of sweetness. Wings: Standard chicken wings, but the Lemon Pepper Seasoning was way too heavy, so it was pretty salty for some bites. Fried Chicken Sandwich: Loved the tater tots - super crispy just like I like them! The chicken sandwich was just OK for me - the chicken itself was a little dry, but the seasonings were good. - OVERALL - Just an OK spot for bites and drinks. I don't know if I'd come back but if everywhere else was too busy, I wouldn't mind stopping in. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Modern bar with massive patio sitting area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I truly appreciate happy hour pricing but I must say theirs is rather creative. All happy hour drinks are priced at $6.19 to match the name. Small details but I appreciate attention to the details (and affordable pricing!) read more

Love their happy hour (6.19 draft cocktails) and appreciate their truffle fries! [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have some unique and well made cocktails, games, and indoor/outdoor space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's always a chill place to catch up with friends or for a date.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

This was for a DoorDash experience. The food arrived packaged and labeled well. Ordered the Cesar wrap and steak sandwich. Both had a good amount of food and good taste. Chicken was not dry. Tots were good and the curds had more in them than I thought. Overall good meal for delivery. Looking forward to trying the food and beers in person. read more

How has it taken me this long to try out this awesome dog-friendly local spot?! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Finally went in today after walking past it a hundred times and realizing I had it all wrong. I always assumed it was probably just a straight-up distillery -- dark, cold, maybe no food. Nope. It's open, bright, festive, and honestly just a really good hang! Slight tiki energy - beach bar vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]On a rainy day it was perfect because it felt airy and cheerful instead of cozy-to-the-point-of-claustrophobic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The holiday decor was so festive too - if you're on a holiday bar crawl this would be a great spot![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Philip was behind the bar and immediately made us feel welcome. Super friendly, super patient, had great suggestions, and checked in on us perfectly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The owners were also there with their senior dog, who completely stole the show and made the place feel even more cozy and happy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Drinks-wise, there's a ton of options - something for everyone (draft cocktails, regular cocktails, beer, wine... you're not getting boxed in here). We went for a few draft cocktails because happy hour was $6.19 (which felt illegal in 2025), and they were solid. They lean a little sweet/sour, but well-made and very easy to enjoy! Didn't eat this time, but the food menu looked legit and varied enough that I'm already planning a return (possibly tomorrow for a chicken Caesar wrap) with an empty stomach. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also: very dog friendly, which on a rainy day is a big win.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Can already tell this place is going to be a summer go-to, but even on a gloomy day, it absolutely delivered! read more

Found this place walking around North Park. Service is fast, and they have a great selection of vodka, especially the different infused flavors. Drinks come out quick and taste great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Chill vibe and perfect for a casual Sunday afternoon out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely be back. read more

What a great spot. We enjoyed several of their specialty cocktails and at happy hour prices as an added bonus. Everyone who works there is friendly and helpful and the whole place has a laidback vibe without lacking any attentiveness or service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We picked a game to play off their shelf and the couple next to us asked to join in which added to our overall experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Even the bartender got in on the fun by the end of it. The food we had was also great so I can confidently recommend every aspect of 619 Spirits. read more

We've come here for a handful of different reasons. Happy to say that each experience gets better. Initially had this review at a 3 in my drafts from last year, but from my time here recently, bumped it to a 4. The service is a bit confusing. You can order at the bar which creates a huge line. Or if you sit down, you can waive over someone to get your order taken. When we've gone, no one knows what to do. There isn't a sign so the confusion is understandable because it's not clear on how to get service. When it's not busy, everything is fine. They have a great happy hour. Love that it goes a little past 6pm as it ends at 6:19. Gives you a little bit more grace. I'm not a fan of their draft cocktails which I find too sweet but I do know others that enjoy them. For a brunch drink, highly recommend the Spritz & Slam! Their HH food is great for the deal. Wings, cauliflower, and truffle fries always hit. Their steak night special was ok. Wouldn't come back for that. Despite the service being confusing when they're packed & busy, their servers are always so nice. If you're a Wave fan, they've been hosting watch parties. The vibes are immaculate. You have to get there early though. read more

Love this spot! Love the different liquor options and how all the spirits are 619 made. The vodka flight is such a fun option, I love the pickle tini and rose one. They have great food options as well. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great happy hour prices and a great place to come hang out on the patio with the girls or a good spot for an after work drink or watching some sports![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend read more

The service here was terrible. They were so slow to serve us and we waited an hour to get our food. I got the wagyu burger with egg and a side of tater tots, which I enjoyed. The green apple boozy smoothie was good and strong. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was a nice outdoor place to sit down that felt homey.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking, of course, was terrible in North Park read more

Wow! This place is such a low key spot, partnered with Walkabout, I found this restaurant. They have great happy hour specials, steak and fries Wednesday specials. Their steak was tender, their fries were crispy, they could have used a bit of salt, but overall a great meal. The servers are first class, they know how to hustle with the few people they have. They have outdoor and indoor so it's an inviting space! read more

This was a cute little spot. I loved their back patio seating, super cute. The service was good, but we did end up moving closer inside as the sun n flys were getting a bit intense. The hummus platter we ordered was delicious and I loved my drink. They have a really good happy hour and I will definitely be back if I'm in the area. read more

We went for happy hour. They have limited happy hour food and drink options. Freddy our waiter was very friendly and helpful. We ordered the 619 scorpion pepper buffalo and lemon pepper wings. The 619 scorpion pepper buffalo tasted like red hots Buffalo sauce; they were just okay. I would rate 6 out of 10. The lemon pepper was our favorite, I asked for it to be extra crispy. I would rate 10 out of 10. They come with carrots, celery and ranch on the side. The happy hour drinks were a bit too sweet for me. I ended up going with a few shots. Overall, open airy bar with plenty of tables and chairs. Clean bar/restaurant with cute plants. They have board games if you want to play with them. read more

Heard about the happy hour and that they make their own vodka so had to check it out. They have good happy hour deals and got a flight. Tried the pickle flavored drink and it's ... Interesting. I feel there some type of dill flavor that threw off the pickle flavor for me (and I love pickles!). I wish I could say I liked it, but this pickle drink is not for me. but the SoCal Saddle drink was good! read more

So, I used to be a big believer in this establishment when they first opened up shop and I would visit them weekly. Good service, fun options on happy hour and solid food. Since Covid, this place has gone waaaaaaaaaaay downhill. Service is awful on a good day. Drinks are the worst in all of North Park. The owner doesn't give a flying f about any of it. It's sad really. I keep checking periodically, hoping it's improved, but no. Waited again today for over an hour before finally asking where our server was. Messed up the order...again. No f's given. Sadly, this is the worst bar in the North Park area and it's not even close. read more

Came out with some friends for few drinks. After walking a few blocks and getting turned off with how packed and loud a lot of the other places in the area were, we stumbled into 619 and boy were we pleased. With a sigh of relief we were finally able be seated and not have to listen to screaming fans yelling at the tv as the padres game went on. Servers were very friendly and even allowed my friend to vent about her ex boyfriend to her and seemed genuinely interested. So A+ to her for having the time to listen drinks were incredible! And at a great price point! Of course I couldn't decide so I got the cocktail sampler where you can choose 3 of their cocktails. They'll be seeing me again read more

Excellent happy hour with $6.19 cocktails. The catch is that the drinks don't always register on the bill at the discounted price. Was also unaware of a 5% service charge until I requested and reviewed an itemized receipt. I had a hunch something was off when I reviewed the total on the handheld device that the server showed to collect payment. Lesson learned is always ask for a detailed receipt at 619 Spirits. read more

We went on a double date during restaurant week to try out the food. But we did order the draft cocktails. My husband liked his whiskey drink but my gin drink - The Saturn - was SO sweet. The dinner menu for restaurant week was $45 and included one draft cocktail, app, main and dessert. Sorry everyone. The food was just not good. I wanted to like it. Who doesn't love a distillery? But let's start with the sprouts. They were DRENCHED in honey. You couldn't even taste the sprouts for all the honey. Then the pasta. The shrimp were okay. Fresh. But the vodka sauce was completely flavorless. And the dessert - goodness. The "whipped cream" tasted like whipped lard with sugar in it and arrived at the table melted. I don't know what else to say. The place was loud but that's okay for this type of bar with the football game on. The service was decent. Kept our water full and plates cleared. I was excited about this menu but it was not tasty! read more

We love 619! We started coming here over a year ago, when it was pretty much empty, and knew we found a hidden gem in NP. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great patio front and back, and GAMES and projectors![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The drinks and food have always been amazing, and whenever we have friends in town - we always come here. It became a weekly spot and they were an essential stop into my birthday bar crawl! We are so excited they are now opening even closer to us on El Cajon Blvd. read more

This place is just mediocre at best. Parking is always a hassle, and they never seem to have enough staff. I came in around 5 PM on a Monday, and even though there were only two other tables, I sat at the bar for five minutes without being acknowledged--the bartender was chatting with another guest and didn't take my drink order. I left around 6:30 PM, and the place was full with still, just two workers. We ended up moving to a table, where the server mentioned it was just the two of them working. I ordered the wings, which were fine, like everything else on the menu. We all thought the food was too salty. On the upside, they have a solid happy hour--$2 off drinks from 3 to 6 PM, if I remember right. My craft beer was only $6. Oh, and it gets extremely hot in here. There was no AC going. Open venue. read more

Such a great place. We went for happy hour and were pleasantly surprised in the details. They have draft signature cocktails (they are premixed and come out of the tap) and the one I had was so so good. I had the Spicy Berry one. Yum We also split the hummus app and everything was so delicious.... Perfectly grilled artichoke hearts and pickled onions; two kinds of amazing hummus with pita bread and cucumbers. It was beyond delightful !!! Everything looked so beautiful -- very special read more

Not a bad place to grab drinks in North Park. Good ambiance, good vibes, nice outside patio atmosphere. I got the panda drink and I do have to say I would like more coconut/ buko pandan flavor. The lime really is too strong for this kind of cocktail. Otherwise I like the vibe. read more

Service here was great! The drinks were tasty, I got a draft cocktail from their happy hour and it was only $6.19 and it was strong! The ambiance is cute as they have both and indoor and outdoor area to hang. Street parking is difficult but I was able to find nearby parking at 5PM on a Thursday relatively quickly. read more

I came in last night SDRW. Highly disappointed! First off last night was a Thursday so parking was still nonexistent because it is North Park. Be prepared to pay for parking or you'll be circling for hours. Next is the menu they had listed on the SDRW website is different than what they actually presented so I felt a bit robbed since I was anticipating on spending a certain amount. The menu they provided was $10 more than posted on SDRW's site so it was $45/person +$5 for signature cocktail. Not only that but the current menu at the restaurant was a downgrade from the website. They also state for braised short ribs it'd come with veggies but all I got was a plain mixed salad with no dressing. It'd be nice if they'd mentioned they were out of an item and had to sub. Also the walk to their bathroom is elevated so myself and others tripped on it. They are also dog friendly so there were a bunch of dogs inside which surprised me. However the food was all good though. I enjoyed the brussel sprouts, the bacon mac and cheese, and braised short ribs with mashed potatoes. read more

This is a good place for a chill meal with friendly staff and a very San Diegan open air vibe. Would not want to have been here during the recent 100 degree heat, however. DH got the biscuits and gravy which he said was well priced for the quantity, and which was adequate and left him not overstuffed, but my breakfast burrito was off. Not sure how to describe it but as a breakfast burrito aficionado, I would not order it again. Loved that the mimosa flight was three full mimosas - that is to say, it's a great value for what you get, but maybe I didn't need that much? Ha. I would advise you try this place for yourself, and I'm not opposed to going again and trying something else. read more

Finally was able to check out 619 after hearing about them, grabbed a drink before dinner and played some of their board games on the patio. We waited at the bar to order a drink and after no service just decided to grab a table. We had a girl come grab our order pretty quickly and everything came out very fast. We didn't stay too long but I would definitely be back. The place was spacious and not too crowded which I prefer. read more

Beer, cider, kombucha- y'know what North Park is missing? Vodka. And 619 Spirits figured that out. Scrap those boring beer flights and get a flight of the tastiest cocktails around. Excellent - I wanted more - but moderation is the key. The fillet of fish was excellent! Very simple layout - but extremely flavorful. Get it. It's amazing. Very dog friendly with plenty of outdoor seating. I can't take my dog here. He doesn't understand the meaning of 'moderation'. He can't control his licker. read more
