Loads of delicious cocktails and a really solid selection of whiskeys.
Katie AtwellMay 18, 2015HH 5-8 pm. Bartender you need to know Matt grippo inventive cocktails. Known for New Orleans coffee
they sure know their way around whiskey! The menu rotates, but order whatever whiskey based drink they make b/c it'll be good!
Joshua HaftelJanuary 27, 2015Can get crowded and loud, but a fun place to grab some drinks with friends.
The Daily MealJune 19, 2011Sip on any of the concoctions available on mixologist Kyle Fountaine's seasonal cocktail menu and luxuriate in the sensuous atmosphere. Read more
Their old fashioned comes with a huge rock in it. Awesome.
NOLA Iced Coffee with bourbon and Joyride cold brew. Chk chk
@JaumePrimeroAugust 14, 2013They make a mean Manhattan and make sure you ask them to make it with Bullett.
Cocktails are pretty solid, especially the barrel aged stuff!
Hands down my favorite bar. The cocktails are consistently phenomenal.
Rob AtkinsonJanuary 14, 2017Good cocktails and beer, although I find it's either too crowded or feels empty
Kenny HsuJanuary 10, 2012Try the Blackbird Toddy for a relaxing drink (has Earl Grey, Vanilla Bean) with some rye.
Gabriel GuerreroJune 23, 2013Tiffany is the best barwoman ever, all the time smiling and good drinks...
Quiet on a Sunday evening. The negroni was particularly good.
I really like the newspaper front pages wallpapered on the wall towards the back of the bar covering the big stories in SF and the world for the last century.
Hornet AppOctober 4, 2013The only upscale gay place in the Castro, far pricier than the rest of Castro but the setting makes for some smart conversations.
The Elope Old Fashioned will wake you up from anything!
It's no longer on the specialty cocktails menu, but they'll still make you an Aviation, which is good, because it's one of the tastiest things here.
- Fabio ResendeJuly 17, 2013"Laura Palmer" is one of the best cocktails in the city according to SFist
They finally take credit cards & have No. 209 gin so it's all good!
The Knee Slapper is the bomb. A Manhattan like concoction, only better.
Tyler ClarkMay 17, 2011It's definitely a mixed crowd of straights and gays, but it works. Awesome vibe, great cocktails. Read more
