Whether you need to refuel after a pick-up game of touch football or console yourself with meat, cheese, and bread after getting swept by an eight-year-old tennis prodigy at the Balboa Park courts, find your way to Roxie Food Center. The tiny convenience store requires you to get over personal space requirements as the line always snakes its way through the two tightly packed aisles. They keep the menu simple with a handful of options—the best is the Simon Special that comes ballooned with turkey, pastrami, and cheddar cheese on dutch crunch. If building your own, try the mayo-heavy tuna or the tri-tip as your protein. Whatever you order is guaranteed to be hefty and messy—though we suggest asking for a light toast as the bread can end up dry. Be prepared to take your order on the road or make a picnic out of it at the park across the street.
