There are no snacks available. Be prepared for this or risk becoming hungry beyond imagination.

Excellent! Love the Cosmo Alleycats!

If you want cocktails that taste like potpourri prepared by self entitled bartendars, this is the spot.

Try the rosebud, great, refreshing drink, but you have to whisper it.

Good cocktails made with intention.
Shomir DuttOctober 26, 2014
Old fashioned :)
Aaron DraczynskiNovember 27, 2012
The Monarch is bourbon, spiced black tea, cinnamon, and coconut syrup; it tastes like a booze-infused Thai iced tea. Quite tasty, but maybe not worth the slow service.
Precilla ZambranoAugust 28, 2019
Great date spot.
Azin AshourvanOctober 4, 2012
The only time I ever wear a hat; they force me to take it off in the entrance. Apart from that awful experience (didn't even have a mirror for hair check) it was pretty cool. Similar to Press Club.
Andrew MuiOctober 17, 2012
If you like Thai iced tea, try the Monarch..mindblowing
DaveMay 5, 2015

Enjoy one of the best bars in sf. Speakeasy feel.
Mark SlobbeAugust 18, 2018
Truly overrated. Great drinks. But personnel are having more fun then the customers. Extremely arrogant bartenders. Probably worst service I’ve ever experienced

Spot the startup employees who haven't gotten properly jaded by the industry yet.
