For me, carousels have always held a certain enchantment – something about the ornate details, the mirrors, the pretty lights, and of course, the horses. So, you can imagine how I felt when I discovered this carousel-themed bar in San Diego, CA (that is now on my bucket list). It is the perfect blend of whimsy and elegance that you can’t help but be drawn to.

Located in San Diego's Little Italy, Wolfie’s Carousel Bar is more than, well, a bar - it is an immersive world that transports visitors to another time and place.

The stunning centerpiece of this bar and bistro is the fully functioning merry-go-round bar. In every way, it evokes the feeling of a vintage carousel, illuminated with some 400 lightbulbs - and yes, it moves!

The bar itself may not have horses, but there are horses to be found - they are suspended over the pretty birdcage booths, extending the carousel vibe.
