Neighborhood, a craft-beer focused restaurant situated on the corner of 8th Ave and G St in downtown San Diego’s East Village, opened in 2007 with a mission to “Promote Intelligent Consumption.” Five years later, they are now hoping to expand within their current building to accommodate a bottle shop and growler fill space UPDATE 4:50PM – Owner Arsalun Tafazoli now says it is a tasting room he plans to open, not a growler fill space; a Conditional Use Permit application dated January 17th, 2012 was filed with the Centre City Development Corporation (CCDC).
This move would bring the beer-for-here/beer-to-go model close to the Gaslamp Quarter where many tourists and conventioneers stay while in town.
