San Francisco Weekly covers “Hipster San Diego” ? This feels like it could be an April Fool’s thing, but they mention the Turf Supper Club and Influx. And they ain’t no joke.

OK, maybe nobody’s that much of a stereotype. But neither is San Diego. In fact, while the ninth fittest city in America (so says Men’s Fitness) might have its share of beefcakes and surf betties, there’s also quite the hipster scene hiding under all that Botox and spray-on tan. With a new ballpark giving the city’s downtown a face-lift (and an eye tuck and collagen) and local bands like Louis XIV, Unwritten Law, and Pinback hitting the national radar, San Diego’s going in a direction that’s decidedly more urban chic than beach-town casual. These days, there are plenty of hipster haunts to entertain the cultured San Franciscan, who might even find a few like-minded souls among the sun-kissed masses.
I may have to reevaluate my dismissal of San Franciscans as snooty.
