This St. Patrick’s Day, the rooftop at Andaz San Diego is turning green. Perched above the Gaslamp Quarter, The Rooftop by STK is celebrating with festive food and drink specials alongside the hotel’s famously sweeping skyline views, which are arguably some of the best vantage points in downtown San Diego for sunset, city lights and holiday bites and drinks. Guests can dig into Irish-inspired bites like Shaved Corned Beef Sliders, a Corned Beef Grilled Cheese with seasoned fries, and Corned Beef Fries topped with beer cheese, while sipping themed cocktails including the Pot O’ Gold with Teeling Irish Whiskey, peach liqueur and lemon, or the refreshing Irish Maid with honey and cucumber. The rooftop will also pour green beer and Jameson shots, making it an easy spot to kick off – or end – a St. Patrick’s Day celebration high above the city.
