Our Story

More Than a Newstand —
Part of the Block

Paras Newstand has been a steady presence on 30th Street for over a decade. What started as a simple newspaper stand grew into something the neighborhood relies on: a place where you can grab the morning paper, pick up a cold drink on your way home, or find that random thing you didn't know you needed until you walked through the door.

We don't claim to be the biggest store in San Diego. What we are is the one that knows your face, remembers your usual, and stays open when it counts. That's the kind of business this street deserves.

The Neighborhood

Rooted in City Heights

We're not just *on* 30th Street — we're part of what makes this corridor work. Here's why the regulars keep coming back.

Always Open When It Counts

Early mornings before work, late evenings on your way home — we're here when you actually need us, not just during some corporate schedule.

A Face You Recognize

This isn't a chain with a manager rotation. It's a person who knows your name, your order, and that you're running late on Tuesdays.

Keeping the Street Alive

Local businesses like ours are what make a neighborhood feel like a neighborhood. Every purchase keeps 30th Street working for the people who live here.

Stop By and Say Hello

Whether you're grabbing the UCSD Guardian on a weekday morning, picking up lunch supplies after class, or just passing through — the door is open.
