San Diego port shopping

[azcaptainbob]

Leaving in October and wish to know if there are any stores where you can purchase wine at the port?

 

Thanks

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.

I always wonder why people give the thumbs down when they ask a question.

I was just wondering the same thing...not really like the thumbs down selection is right next to the submit button

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. LuAnn

Maybe they think it's a question mark. It sort of looks like one if you don't look carefully. :D

I think you're correct. :)

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!!??

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.

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!
