The 3rd Corner in Ocean Beach
Article written by Michelle Valenti

Wine bars are the latest rage. They are popping out of the concrete in every hip neighborhood of San Diego. The idea: Sell wine by day and host wine drinkers by night. The best part is that wine bars offer a better selection of wine then that limited in restaurants and they offer it at retail price. The Third Corner Wine Shop and Bistro in Ocean Beach has decided to tap into this wine enthusiast’s market. Tables are dispersed throughout the quaint shop, which houses more then 800 selections of wine. Guests are invited to choose their bottle from the floor and pay a five-dollar corkage fee to enjoy it in the bar. The 3rd Corner stands by its collection, as every variety of wine that they carry has been tasted and hand selected by the Staff.

The menu has a carefully contrived sampling of food that will match the pickiest palate and pair deliciously with any bottle of wine. The only downside is the size of the portions. Dishes such as the delicious baked brie in a puffed pastry appetizer and the wild mushroom pasta dinner will leave you craving more. If you like olives, however, the olive sampler is over flowing with a fun variety. Food is available from 11:30 am until 1 am.

A room in the back offers a more comfortable setting with leather couches and coffee tables, an area coveted by the early birds. The 3rd Corner, which has only been open for three months, has wait times of 1.5 hours and up at peak times on Friday and Saturday nights, so if you can get away, weeknights might be the best time to go.
Not a wine drinker? Enjoy the setting with good company anyway. There is a full service bar with alcohol and beer to appease the rebel in any group. So come, get cozy and try some new wines.

The 3rd Corner is located at 2265 Bacon Street in Ocean Beach. For more information call 619-223-2700 or to see a menu, go to www.the3rdcorner.com.
