The owner of Harry's Coffee Shop is planning to open a new outpost of sister concepts Cass Street Bar & Grill and Harry's Taco Club in San Diego's Ocean Beach.
The space that last housed the short-lived JJ's Sports Bar & Grill on Newport Avenue in Ocean Beach has been taken over by a local hospitality group that includes John Rudolph, who owns Harry’s Coffee Shop in La Jolla, Cass Street Bar & Grill and Harry's Taco Club in Pacific Beach, The Venetian in Point Loma, Americana restaurant in Del Mar, and Mike's Taco Club in Ocean Beach.The former JJ's space will be a new location of the modernized Cass Street Bar & Grill and Harry's Taco Shop joint-concept, which first unveiled in Pacific Beach in 2020. Expect a full bar and a food menu similar to Mike's Taco Club, but with the addition of Cass Street favorites like the stuffed steak baguette, the Oriental salad, and the spicy chicken pasta. The space will offer an 80s-inspired ambiance with a Knight Rider mural and a couple classic arcade games.
Cass Street Bar & Grill and Harry's Taco Shop are expected to open by this summer at 5049 Newport Avenue in San Diego's Ocean Beach neighborhood. For more information, visit cassstbar.com.
