What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Brick is a relatively uncommon building material in California, but this (amply reinforced) 1888-vintage brick building, once Oceanside’s first hardware store, is an eye-catching exception.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The historic wooden pier is four blocks away, and street markets take over Pier View Way every Thursday.
The rooms
Salvaged original timber becomes custom shelving beside exposed brick walls and bold floral wallpapers.
Rooftop yoga
Open-air yoga sessions overlook the ocean from the rooftop terrace, with mats provided for weekly morning and sunset flows.
Bar
Cococabana
Under a timber pergola draped in greenery, the open-air rooftop bar pours Caribbean-inspired cocktails overlooking the coastline.
At the table
At street level, Q&A serves New Orleans chargrilled oysters and craft rum drinks under a thatched tiki ceiling.
How it began
The 1888 building spent fifty years hidden under stucco before the Aldrich family uncovered its original masonry.
