Good News Bar is San Diego's first dedicated 100% alcohol-free bar, opened in July 2025 in Hillcrest by married former bartenders Crystal and Kaylee Clark, who left drinking behind in recovery and built a daytime-to-evening venue with an integrated non-alcoholic bottle shop. By day it serves coffee, tea, functional cocktails, and pastries; by night it pours "functional" cocktails built around adaptogens, nootropics, nervines, kava, and hemp-derived CBD (mostly 0.0% ABV) alongside "free-spirited" cocktails (under 0.5% ABV) that reimagine classics with non-alcoholic spirits, plus dealcoholized wines and NA beers. Signature zero-proof drinks include The Merry Go Round, The Woods, Deborah Downer, and Goosebumpz. It's an inclusive, sober and sober-curious space with trivia, live music, and DJ nights.
