The 8 Best Restaurants & Bars In North Park 2024
"Home to a tiny record shop, Part Time Lover is a bar and lounge that will be a sure hit with your friend who unironically describes themselves as an "audiophile." All the browns and beiges, late mid-century furniture, and checkerboard flooring come together under muted lighting, while the rotating roster of guest vinyl selectors spin jazz, ‘80s pop, modern funk, and more. There’s no food here, but the cocktail menu covers all the bases, from tequila- and cachaça-spiked drinks to classics like martinis, Old Fashioneds, and whiskey highballs. Skip the line by timing a visit for pre-dinner drinks before 7pm so you’re lucid enough to take in the vibes before bar hopping—especially with the full-bodied sound of Thundercat booming from their sound system.
