azcaptainbob Posted August 11, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Leaving in October and wish to know if there are any stores where you can purchase wine at the port? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splinter Posted August 11, 2009 #2 Share Posted August 11, 2009 You can purchase a very limited selection of wine at the Rite Aid drug store on the corner of Ash and Kettner (about 4 blocks from the port). For a better selection, take the San Diego Trolley to the 2nd Convention Center stop and walk over to Cost Plus World Market, or take a cab or pedicab to either the Ralph's supermarket on Market and 2nd, or cab over to the Liberty Station complex and check out Trader Joe's.

The_Big_M Posted August 11, 2009 #3 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I always wonder why people give the thumbs down when they ask a question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserbryce Posted August 11, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I was just wondering the same thing...not really like the thumbs down selection is right next to the submit button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wine Bank on 5th Ave. in the Gaslamp Quarter..you could get there on the trolley as well or take a cab...not too far at all. They have a huge selection.

DaveFr Posted August 11, 2009 #6 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I always wonder why people give the thumbs down when they ask a question. Maybe they think it's a question mark. It sort of looks like one if you don't look carefully. :D Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azcaptainbob Posted August 12, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted August 12, 2009 It looks like a question mark to me...perhaps it could serve as a ? when you wish to know something and a thumbs down when you are unhappy??? Sorry for any confusion...right now I am functioning with only one arm perhaps the left side of my brain is out of commission as well!!?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted August 12, 2009 #9 Share Posted August 12, 2009 There are some places that sell wine in Little Italy as I recall. THis is a few blocks to your left and ahead when standing at the dock facing the Holiday Inn. I found a convenience store that had a decent selection and reasonable prices.

ual flyer Posted August 13, 2009 #10 Share Posted August 13, 2009 We sailed from SAN in April and stayed at the Holiday Inn on the Bay which is literally right across from the port. In fact we walked over to the port with our luggage. Any way, there is a gift shop in the hotel which sells wine. Not a bad selection either. Prices might be a tad higher than a beverage store but the convenience is worth it. Happy cruising! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
