World Cuisine, Wine, and More on your Doorstep
Farm-to-table dining, chef-owned eateries, and gorgeous wineries define Escondido's culinary landscape. The Wooden Spoon Restaurant's seasonal menu boasts delicious peanut butter burgers, and pork schnitzel, among other specials. Enjoy Californian cuisine and gorgeous sunsets at the classy Vintana Wine + Dine restaurant. Their lobster bisque, shrimp cocktails, and calamari are par excellence. With an upscale atmosphere, Vintana is a restaurant where you'll want to dress to impress.
Escondido's stunning gastronomic repertoire continues with the French-influenced Californian cuisine served at Bellamy's: the spicy shrimp, mussels bouillabaise, and shrimp crepes are dishes to be celebrated. Salvadorian cuisine can be savored over at Cuscatlan, and a top recommendation is their pupusa, a traditional corn tortilla wrapped around chicken, pork, shrimp, or veggies.
The city also beckons visitors with its booming craft brewery and winery scenes. A short drive south is the expansive Stone Brewing World Bistro and Gardens Liberty Station, home to a dog-friendly beer garden, an outdoor cinema space, over 40 craft beers, and artisanal food. Their 'angry chicken sandwich' and pork tacos both make fine accompaniments to the hoppy IPAs and crisp lagers on offer.
Old-World History and Culture
The Old Escondido Historic District is an architecture lover's delight with its magnificent Victorian homes, and post-WWII and Art Deco residences. More history awaits, as you learn about how people lived in old California, with a visit to the Sikes Adobe Historic Farmstead, which dates to 1870. The restored residence is one of the oldest adobe houses in the region, and offers visitors a glimpse into the life of 19th-century farming families.
Whimsical, colorful, and spectacular are just some of the words that describe Queen Califia's Magical Circle, a sculpture park designed by the late Franco-American artist Niki de Saint Phalle. Don't miss the chance to marvel at these dazzling and thought-provoking sculptures made from hand-cut glass and colored mosaics.
Escondido is a powerhouse when it comes to the performing arts. Spend an evening enjoying a dance recital or concert at the state-of-the-art California Center for the Arts. The acoustics are mind-blowing, as you'll discover. The center also hosts important annual community events such as the Day of the Dead, 4th of July celebrations, and Holiday Tree Lighting to name a few. And lastly, something to keep the theater lovers happy - why not catch a play at San Diego county's oldest continuously-running theater? The Patio Playhouse Community Theater has been an Escondido icon since 1967.
Children's Days Out
When it comes to activities that will excite the kids, there's no shortage. San Diego Children's Discovery Museum (SDCDM) keeps everyone from toddlers to teenagers engaged with its hands-on imaginative exhibits such as the aquaponic garden, floating objects, wind tunnels, and even a puppet theater. The award-winning New Children's Museum, meanwhile, merits a visit for its fun and interactive exhibits: tree houses, truck painting, and a block building room being just some of them.
An unforgettable experience awaits at Trapeze High, where kids aged seven and above can take classes under the watchful eye of a trapeze artist. The fun and unique experience may even make them want to join the circus.
With a comfortable and private lodging in Escondido, all this and even more is yours to discover.
Lakes, History, Horse Rides and More
Escondido offers year-round fishing, biking, hiking, and golfing opportunities. What's more, it's just a twenty minute drive from the ocean. The often overlooked San Pasqual Battlefield State Historic Park is well worth a day trip. Here, you can learn all about the historic American-Mexican battle of 1846 through a 10-minute video presentation, and interesting artifacts in the museum. The park also hosts some well-maintained trails and picturesque lookout areas.
Unplug from the rush of modern life with a visit to the pretty Dixon Lake. Close to the lake is Daley Ranch, which spreads luxuriantly over 3000 acres and is suited to hikers of all abilities. Take in the wonderful flora and fauna, mountain bike along well-marked trails, or enjoy horse riding through the countryside. History buffs will find the period buildings on the ranch fascinating.
