On the Grid : Quartyard

"If we were forced to go somewhere everyday, this is our unanimous choice. It's a massive outdoor plaza with a resident eatery, coffee bar, rotating lineup of food trucks, craft beer garden, and a dog park. The vibe is urban & friendly & it's where locals go to socialize and enjoy the SD weather. Cop-a-squat on a picnic table and we'll see you there." - Fifty & Fifty

Quartyard Returns to the East Village - Eater San Diego

"After shuttering its previous site last June, Quartyard has re-emerged in the East Village in a new location at the corner of 13th and Market. At 11,000-square-feet, the footprint is about half the size of the original but there’s still room for all the essential components of the former space, from the dog run, concert stage, and outdoor games to the repurposed shipping containers that house a coffee shop, bar with 20 taps of craft beer and cocktails on tap, and eatery that features a menu of salads, sandwiches, burgers, and flatbread pizza; new items include wings and fries. With a current lease that extends at least three years, the urban park and event venue is celebrating its grand re-opening with a ticketed event scheduled for Friday, April 13 from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. that includes performances from B-Side Players, The Kickback djs (Harvard Bass b2b Bubba Cortez), and Israel Maldonado." - Candice Woo

This is an amazing place to see a show and we are extra spoiled to live nearby. Saturday's are our favorite and my cats jump up when the music starts asking me to open the windows. They love to watch the laser lights and have seen Tinlicker, Bianca, Nina Kravitz, The Doors cover band + so many more, all from their window. The terrible new manager in my apt building sent out a link to the entire community asking us to fill out a complaint form to the city about the noise. Insane! The music is only from 5-9pm on Saturdays and this is art culture, a blessing to have in East Village! We actually open all the windows and enjoy cooking dinner to the music. Maybe people that keep their windows shut hear a more muffled version and that irritates them? It's by far my favorite establishment In our neighborhood plus Seahorse Coffee has the best coffee in all of San Diego hands down.

Love love love this place! Such a cute and colorful atmosphere and quite a wide variety of events. I’m often here for trivia on Wednesdays which is super fun. The host is great and they always have drink specials going on. Really fun way to break up your week. The music events here are awesome too.

Went to Quartyard for trivia on Wednesday, and it was seriously so much fun!! The venue itself is super artsy and trendy, kind of like an outdoor warehouse with shipping containers. The staff was super sweet and had great energy. They had a nice selection of beers, ranging from light options and ciders to IPAs and dark beers. It was seriously such a fun time and a great place to let loose! I’ve seen shows being held at this space before, so I’ve always wanted to check it out! Will definitely be back! The staff, beers, and event space were all super great!!

I came to this venue for an event, Bingo Loco. Finding parking on a Friday evening was very difficult. This venue is close to Petco Park and there was a Padres game that evening. We couldn't find street parking so we paid to park at a nearby parking structure. Checking into the event was quick and easy. We grabbed a spot by the bar for the bingo event. Servers were very friendly and helpful. I ordered a Moscow Mule and Chips with Salsa and guacamole. Drink was delicious and the chips, salsa, and guacamole were good too. I love the vibe of this venue. It's outdoors so it didn't get too stuffy when we were packed in there for the event. It was easy to get to the bar and to the bathrooms.

I've been to Quartyard twice now, and tonight was by far the better experience. It was 80s Night, and they really went all out--the music was great, the atmosphere was fun, and they even had a swing, which was a nice touch! I previously went during their Light Fest, which was cool in its own way, but the energy tonight was just on another level. That said, I do think the drinks are overpriced for what you get. The quality doesn't quite match the cost, which is a bit of a downside. But the variety of events they host throughout the year keeps things interesting, and I'll definitely be back to check out more in the future. If you're looking for a fun night out with a unique vibe, Quartyard is worth a visit!

Hubs and I went to the interactive light experience at the Quartyard. We started with drinks and food. The drinks were flavorful and looked great as well. The food came from El Comal I believe and we ordered tacos and tostadas. Both were flavorful and were small plates. The bartender was friendly and helpful, despite it being busy. After, we checked out the different light experiences they had throughout their property. I really liked the silent disco (at least that's what I call it). They had neat light installations throughout.

I visited on a Friday night for the free bingo event hosted by SD Hosted from 7 PM to 9 PM. We played four rounds of bingo, each with unique winning requirements. Between rounds, they offered fun games like flip cup and a taco-eating contest. There was also a prize wheel that participants could spin during the games, with rewards like a free drink, a $1 shot, trivia challenges, or even the chance to pie the host. Fall Brewing provided some swag for giveaways, and they featured $6 Fall Brewing beers alongside $8 options for other beers. The atmosphere and bartender were awesome with a great vibe and excellent music. Overall, it was an fun experience!

The person who manages their customer service is so good at responding to text,email, & calls, I got scared about accidentally sending my ticket to wrong email and they helped me send it to the correct email. Also. Venue is really nice.

I love coming to Quartyard! They've got a great rotating menu of drinks and have a little restaurant serving burritos, nachos, and tacos. Most Wednesdays SD Hosted is there for twisted trivia, there's often bingo and other fun events too. Sometimes they'll even have live music and seller markets. It's a great community hangout spot downtown. Parking isn't great because it's downtown but you'll probably end up drinking so using a ride share is preferred anyway.

This is a cute little spot. Definitely a very casual vibe. But I would say that it's a smaller venue. Open-Air. Everything is set up nicely; The bar, seating areas. I would say I'm not crazy about the shows they have here. It is a spot I would say good to grab a drink and hang out for something music related. Definitely good staff here. Haven't been to trivia night but I hear good things.

Attended Natasha Chandel comedy show with family and friends this past weekend. My first time here, was impressed at how big and spacious the Quartyard was. They had a lot of artwork displayed on the walls, they were pretty cool and vibrant. There's plenty of seating/tables/chairs throughout the premises and a bar area. They have a food area as well, it's at the back of the stage. Once you order, you can go back to your table. They will give you a buzzer to notify you when your food is ready. They prices were a bit pricey for basic food but it's the price we pay for convenience. We had ordered nachos nachos ($16) , rolled tacos ($15), empanada ($15), street corn ($12), junior cheeseburger ($15), jalapeño wrapped bacon ($16) and bone in wings ($16). They were all just okay, nothing to rave about it. They have a long bar area, looked pretty neat but the alcohol choices was not so great. I would definitely go again if any events catch my eyes in the future. It's a cool spot to hang with friends and family. Friendly people all around. They even have security guards on the premises, they were helpful and welcoming.

Security got in my face for talking to my friend who was allowed behind the area.... I didn't pass any bariors... it was a really negative experience for me and really unnecessary. My friend was enjoying speaking to me before security got into my face... my friend runs the sound for their events. Sometimes the spot books some really great talent and I have to deleting if it's really worth it because security is so over doing it.... I'm 105 lbs and like I said I was having a consensual conversation... there was no need for ththat aggression or to stop our conversation Also food is terrible and very expensive.

Quartyard in San Diego is a vibrant outdoor space perfect for a Sunday brunch, especially when DJ Miles Medina is spinning. The open-air venue, with its casual, urban vibe, offers a great selection of food and drinks, making it ideal for a laid-back weekend. Miles Medina's beats add an energetic atmosphere, turning Sunday Brunch Party into a lively experience. It's a must-visit for those who enjoy good music, delicious Henny shots and a fun, social setting.

Been here a few times and each time it's a good time. Came here for the first time in the summer when I first moved to San Diego and was just walking around trying to figure out the area. I heard music playing on a Sunday afternoon. Turns out it was a block party and I decided to enter and had such a dope time. It was a R&B event. Lots of different people. Good vibes. Positive energy. Second time I came here was for a mixer that I found on Meetup. That was a bit slower and it didn't really feel like there were structured opportunities to interact with the different groups there given that it was a mixer. But the music was lit and the drinks were flowing. Third time I came here was for Friday night bingo. I arrived late and didn't really get the instructions from the staff on how to participate. That was annoying. So I asked the other people playing. I think it was more of the event staff than the actual staff at the venue that made it more difficult and confusing than it should be. In short this place has a lot of different events and is exactly what the area needs. Most events are only until 830pm or 10pm with the occasional event going a little later. They also open it up during the day to have a coffee and for people to work which is clutch because I just started working from home for the first time and I need spots to go to. Check out the website as they have events such as Yoga Sunday as well. It's chill vibes all around here. Haven't eaten here but they have a handful of things such as rolled tacos, wings, elote, and salads. Prices are about 15 bucks. Drinks are about market price so about 12 dollars. Super happy this place exists. Five stars!

We've been coming here since we moved to East Village 9 years ago. It always feels like home. All the staff are chill and go out out of their way to give great customer service. They have a GREAT new food menu as well from El Comal. The drinks & beer menu are awesome as well. As far as the music.......they showcase everything from A-Z. DJ's, Rock, Jazz, Blues, Cumbia, Hip-hop, Soul etc etc. Also they have a Bingo & Trivia night which is great! Definitely one of the best venues in San Diego!!

Very cool spot that anyone in east village offering solid selection of draft cocktails and beer. Special shout out to my boy Big Dick Conor behind the bar. He's quick, funny, has great drink suggestions, and overall, just a really chill ass dude. Also, Trivia Wednesdays are a blast. I've never laughed so much at any other trivia. Dan from SDHosted is so freakin entertaining, that guy should have his own Netflix special. Definitely recommend getting there a little early, before trivia (starts at 7pm) All and all, check this place out, you won't regret it! Cheers!

Outdoor bar with tons of events throughout the week! I was there for the first time during their trivia night on Wednesday and it was so much fun! They have a comedian as the host and I found him to be really funny as well as good at keeping the energy high. Drinks were cheap. Happy hour all night if I'm not mistaken. $8 beers and happy hour prices on delicious cocktails! The Dynamite burger on the menu was delicious and the fries and nachos were also really good! Definitely recommend for a night out.

The Food....The Service....The Ambiance.... All I can say is YES!!! As soon as I walked in, all I felt was "This is it!". Ryan, the bartender greeted me with a smile and made me one of the best Peach Ginger Cocktails that I've had in a very long time! I ordered the " Jr. burger with Beer Battered Fries" and my GOD were they delicious. I was just simply looking for a place to chill out at after but now I have actually found my home away from home!

Excellent small venue to see up and coming bands. Open space with tables (not a ton but that might have been because of the concert crowd). Really friendly servers, well-priced drinks and food. Parking doesn't exist. We took an Uber from our hotel but our friends had to park six blocks away and some of the surrounding area is questionable.

Food - really good. people complaining about the price should realize everything is overpriced right now! it's inflation! Music - Mostly good. I liked the jazz night, and would love more of those, or chill acoustic music. Everything here feels like a massive party, or a big rave. I think there's an opportunity to have more relaxed vibes and music that doesn't give you a headache. It's also kind of dirty.

This spot was very nice. Ample space for large parties. Good music and there were boardgames on top of the tables to play. Great ambiance. Unfortunately, the food was just meh. The wife got a Jr. Cheeseburger- it was sad. It was a frozen patty with no flavor. Cooked medium rare which was awesome. Pickled were good. The buns were buttered, which is normally a good thing. Bun wad mooshy. I ordered the 4 piece chiclen tenders 2 buffalo/2 bbq. They tasted like they were cheap frozen tenders with prepackaged sauces poured over them. Onto the french fries. They were pretty tasty. The ranch was very good. Lastly, the wifey and I shared the pretzel bite. More like pretzel balls (giggity.) They wete pretty tasty. Comes withbeet cheese and brown mustard (which we didnt try.) This was the best item we ate by far. In a side note, The pretzel bites were nice and toasty but our other entrees were tepid. Almost like our entrees were prepared 1st . Overallthis place was alright. Don't feel the needto go back again.

TLDR: What a fun time! It was perfectly socially distanced here and the food was tasty. Definitely get some drinks (especially the special seasonal ones). Food & Drinks: 7/10 The food was really good, but the drinks were the stars of the show! I'd recommend the mix n match sliders; each had a completely unique flavor profile and it was so much fun to sample each of them. We also got the cauliflower bites, which was a pretty good vegetarian substitute for wings. As for drinks, I especially enjoyed their seasonal cocktails, namely the Cordially invited cocktail and spiked hot cocoa. Price & Portions: 7/10 Pretty standard prices for the servings. My boyfriend and I were pretty satisfied with splitting the sliders and cauliflower bites (both $12 each). Service: 7/10 Great service! We were quickly seated and the servers all wore masks. Ambience: 9/10 Definitely the highlight of Quartyard! The outdoor seating is socially distanced and surrounded by beautiful art. There are also heaters placed near the tables, so there's no need to worry about the cold weather.

Venue somewhat cool, but security is whack. Super aggressive. Shut bathrooms down twenty minutes before a show ended due to supposed "plumbing problems" when it seemed to work just fine for everyone in front of me.

A neighborhood gem. Everyday there's a cool event - concerts, trivia, roller skating, even wrestling (slam diego!!). Great for kicking it with a beer, a concert at night, or day party. I've never seen an establishment that attracts such cool people and talent. They've really turned this into a venue where the goal is just to have a good time.

Giant type-container venue filled with giant sized games like corn hole, connect 4 amongst Snapchat-able backgrounds and props. P.S- place could use a few more giant games laying around. Perfect place to meet neighborhood friends, new people (yup saw two people last night meet for fort time and go home together), bring your dog to play and meet other furry friends .. or furry people? It's a casual , upbeat yet chill kind of place to hang , drink and eat. Pro tip : Wind and chill factor is kept to a minimum since you are surrounded by buildings and apartments. Loved this. Beers and mule on draft. Cocktails can be made and food- is pretty bomb depending what you get and what you are in the mood for. The 3 tacos ($8.25) is petty good , picturesque and filling. The sliders were okay - a little on the salty side. Texas grilled cheese was filling and though an expected oily handful - went perfect with the side of tomato bisque. They also have a nice selection of flatbreads and burgers and fries doused with sauces like cheese. Oh yessss. Service - meh .. hit or miss- not the place to rave as we went to the food truck and they told us to go to the bar. We went to the bar and they told us to go to the food truck. Figured it all out, though when we asked for ketchup ... it never came. Not mad at it , but don't expect grandiose service every time. It's a giant container filled with distractions!!! Everyone is pretty chill , drinks are pretty good , games are fun and you get to meet furry friends. Down !

Dope vibes. Love the concept of having an eatery, event venue, bar, and dog run all in one spot. This is the spot to get together with some friends for sure. I had the only vegan dish - Impossible burger and it was delish. The side salad was mediocre with dry greens and too many raw onions. I feel like this is more of a bar hangout spot rather than a lunch spot.

This place is awful. Service is bad, Not only are the drinks overpriced and gross but it's after 9pm on Sunday night and Quartyard is BLARING shitty techno music louder than ever. I live 3 blocks away with all the doors and windows closed and it's all I can hear. Shut this crap down; this is ridiculous. You are ruining any peace we could possibly have here and the neighborhood residents hates you. F you Quartyard.

I went with a friend to have a bite to eat and I'm a locally homegrown girl and though I eat meat very rarely I love a good burger . I want to tell you the quartyards sliders are the absolute best I ever had! No kidding I kid you not ! I didn't have to do anything to improve their flavor ! When I order out seriously I take up half my side of table with condiments! So you must check it out ! You will not be disappointed Marilyn B East Village

5/5 because this is an AWESOME dog friendly dog. Really love the atmosphere, set up and layout of the place. 4/5 for food because they only have burgers, but on the bright side the burgers were great! There's no parking here, in the neighborhood is a little sketchy, I made the mistake of parking two blocks to the side where I had to walk through a massive amount of homeless people to get there. There's a ton of outdoor games and lounge seating but you have to go up to the bar or window to order food and drinks (maybe they have servers in the summer when it's busier?). Gotta check out this place with your pup!

No in and outs, bossy check-in guy, impossible to park for, sketchy surroundings, open mic had no space even though i showed up at the signup time, and the kitchen gave me a whole lot of attitude when i made a mistake which encouraged me to write this negative review. Plus is that the stage is outdoor. Sound is ok.

First time here. 3 pints in. There are a copious amounts of adorable doggos here. Peak time is when the sun sets. It's also a great time to be here just to appreciate the urban aesthetics. And since it is Monday, apparently that means all day happy hour. 4th pint while ending this review...

Great place to take your dog downtown and enjoy some brews. Some dog parents are annoying and don't understand that dogs have to rank themselves within the group as part of their socializing. What these people call biting, isn't. No blood is shed. My dog is pretty low on the totem pole, so gets punked a lot. But she finds her level and figures it out because that's what dogs do. She comes home happy and tired. Quit projecting onto your animals.

My boyfriend and I have been to two huge events here now. There's a stage for performers, and plenty of space for dancing and enjoying ourselves for Daybreaker events! Hundreds of people attend these events and we always have a blast! They usually set up stations for people to take pictures, and they have an area for food, snacks, and promo items. Daybreaker always finds the best venues. And being new in San Diego, it's so great to check out the cool new spots! Thank you Daybreaker, and Quartyard! Can't wait to see where we go next :)

I've never even heard of Quartyard until a friend of mine told me about. I do remember driving by here one night and the place was packed. I was wondering what this place was because it looked like a concert was going on. So I went with my friend on a Saturday night around 9 and it wasn't that busy. I wanted something from S&M but they were closing at 9??? So we ended up going to a food truck that was really good but a little pricey. There are a lot of community tables, two bean bag games, a small stage and a dog park. The Quartyard is a chill spot but go early because you may miss out. Oh parking is just ridiculous and so is the price for parking which is around 12bucks. Yeah I'll definitely be back and next time I may bring the kids to the dog park.

Well well well... what do we have here? Ok this place is super cool! Plenty of seating space, lounging space and entertainment space. Came here first time with my kids grandma from Ohio as well as my little twosies... lets say it was pretty interesting. Parking wasn't hard to find, as its not on a super busy street... well at least not at 3pm. The food came with a little wait, but wait! That's ok, means they're taking their time to actually cook your stuff, it was delicious. Everyone in the party enjoyed their food. Their buffalo wings were yum, their carnitas burger OMG! Amazingly delicious! While we waited my and my oldest enjoyed some rounds of corn hole, while my youngest enjoyed watching other people's doggies play around. The overall cleanliness was an A-, only because of the unavoidable doggie smell that kinda came and went with the direction of the breeze. Other than that it was good eating. Highly recommend for those who go everywhere with their pooches.

I recently checked out the new location and I am still a fan of the Quartyard. It is about a block from the old location and you can see the old location being built up by some tall building. This new location has the doggie play area. The beer is still available and so is the food. The layout is a little smaller, which isn't bad. It is more cozy for when they are hosting events. However on a daily basis the space is perfectly sized. The doggie play area can have a slight order of dog pee. It is not stifling and strong but it is a lingering odor that if the breeze is blowing just right it could catch you off guard. I love the outdoor low key atmosphere. I do miss the old coffee spot that was just outside the Quartyard, they have one at this location too. However each time that I have been here they have not been open. (I must be stopping by at the wrong time!) I love sitting at the picnic tables, sipping on an ice cold beer and watching the dogs play in the fenced in area. It is great spot to stop and enjoy the afternoon or evening.

I recently went to the Quartyard for the first time. I must admit, I am not a beer drinker, nor a fan of jazz, but I had a great time at a place known for beer and with a jazz concert playing. I don't live downtown, but it seems like a fun place to go if you live nearby. It's the type of outdoor venue that always has something going on. There is a small dog park, and it is very dog friendly. I do think it may be a bit loud for some dogs. It has a coffee shop, bar, and bar food. They have a calendar of events, and my friend surprised me by taking me to a pumpkin decorating night. It was fun to do an art project, drink some wine, sit outside and have music in the background. We shared a pretzel and fries, which were pretty good on the spectrum of bar food. We also drank wine through the evening, which wasn't bad given the fact that they just have house wine. I have seen that they have dance there some evenings. I do wish there had been a bigger selection of food and wine. Also, the music made it hard to hear during our painting project. I wish it had been a bit quieter so we could hear the instructor...and each other. All in all, I liked the vibe and would return.

I'm visiting my brother in San Diego for a week with my dog and staying in his apartment on 13th street. I discovered Quartyard on my first day here and I have been here every single day since! Quartyard is VERY dog friendly with tons of patio seating available. The venue is open-air but plenty of covered areas for shade. There are shipping containers converted into a food truck, bar, and coffee stand. You can walk up to any window and place your food order. There is also a dog run in one corner. I come during lunch and the evening time and there is at least one other dog here. The evenings are my dog's favorite because everyone brings their dog after work and they all run around and tire each other out. If your dog is skiddish and shy, it's best to come earlier. Surprisingly, the dog run is very CLEAN and doesn't stink considering the number of dogs that pass through. There is a security guard on duty who makes sure that all dogs are playing nicely or else they get booted. I also saw a giant Jenga set and some corn hole tosses set up to hang out with friends. Some posters were hung around the venue announcing live music shows later in the week. If I hadn't discovered this venue, I would have had a hell of a time keeping my dog entertained for my weeklong stay in San Diego.

Who would've thought that a few storage containers in a parking lot in the middle of East Village could be such a fun place to hang out? Quartyard is an open aired space that serves up food and drinks in a dog friendly setting. They've got a lot of open space including some that's covered so you can still enjoy it on the one or two days that in rains in San Diego. They have beers on tap as well as a mule and spiked kombucha on tap. I love the great variety of items on their drink menu. They also serve food and I was really impressed by how tasty their bar bites were. We ordered the chicken tenders and fries. The tenders were thickly breaded and tasty. The fries were so good! Overall, pretty cool space. Parking in this part of downtown isn't too bad and it's a great space to hang out with friends.

This is definitely one hip dog park. I don't even have a dog and I still come here! Along with a little area for dogs, they have a bar, and a little burger joint, lawn games, and sometimes have live music! I came for a live jazz show and enjoyed watching dogs play and listening to the music. Unfortunately, they're not to big on wine, but have more of a selection for beers. Overall it's a great little spot in downtown!

It is a outdoor venue. There is big bar & food vendor. Sometimes they will have food trucks parked in this location. It is definitely pet's friendly venue. Enjoy food & drinks at the outdoor in the city!

Nice little Christmas event. Great idea with the photo booth, but the iPad made the photo grainy and dark #YourCityBlock #buzzybooth Great pizza food truck! %CucinaCaprece

Interesting venue in San Diego's East Village. Cool place to hangout with friends and have a drink or two or three..... You're also hungry? They have 3 different food trucks on site every day, but the rotation changes daily. Check their website to see who is there. S&M Sausage and Meat has a spot at Quartyard, but I have yet to try them. Probably the most interesting part of this venue is that they have a dog park! Very nice to have for dog lovers out there! Bottom line is that the Quartyard is a fun outdoor spot to host or attend an event. If I lived in San Diego, then I could see myself hanging out here chillaxin.
