Live Like A Local - Pt 1
3 Things That Will Have You Living Like A Local In Del Mar Village.
Best Hidden Cafe — Stratford Court Café
Situated in a 1900’s Cape-Cod style home, Stratford Court Café offers a quiet and relaxed atmosphere off the beaten path. Just turn west on 13th street, away from Camino Del Mar, and you’ll stumble upon this “hidden café.” With an open and airy ambience, and a dog-friendly patio, Stratford Court Café is the perfect place for a casual brunch or to catch up with a coffee date.
Best View Point — Scripps Bluff Preserve
The Scripps Bluff Preserve is a great spot for a mini-hike or to top off an epic beach run. Sitting atop North Beach (also known as Dog Beach) with expansive views looking south into Del Mar, and east over the Del Mar Fairgrounds/Racetrack, the Scripps Bluff Preserve offers an unmatched panorama of Del Mar.
Best Happy Hour – Jake’s Del Mar
The bar at Jake’s Del Mar will have you feeling like you’re sitting on the beach. With special discounts Monday through Friday 4pm-6pm, and front-row seats to the ocean, happy hour couldn’t get any happier. Local tip: beat the crowds and slip into the bar patio seating.
