Lindsay EyinkAugust 14, 2014Excellent place to sit down to read a book, write in a notebook, or sit outside with a pitcher of sangria on a really nice day. People are also usually smoking weed outside.
Shagun AulakhJanuary 13, 2015I've always loved this place for its laid back vibe of hippies, jazz aficionados, pot smoking neighbors...It's getting a little over run with hipsters, but go here for local music and a good beer
Myziot WJanuary 26, 2019Nice and cozy daily lives music spot! Good beer selection, not so much other beverages and make sure you bring your cash and ID!
Dog friendly patio with an eclectic crowd and live music. Reasonably priced. Also free wifi, if you must work.
David HoltzJuly 2, 2017Live music makes this a cool place for tunes + people watching, but not an ideal venue if you're hoping to work or chat with someone!
LilomultipasFebruary 10, 2015Try the local San Francisco beer- Anchor Steam Beer!! Good live music, intimate for a nice date or just to hang with friends 👍👍
Come here for great live music and interesting people watching in an indoor/outdoor space.
Rachel EastwoodMarch 3, 2015Busy with an eclectic mix of people, so come early. Also great place to come alone to people watch or with a couple friends.
Liv WaflerMay 26, 2013Great jazz on Saturday night (no cover) and friendly, upbeat crowd! Fun place to socialize or chill in the corner with a book.
Derrick ChenMay 11, 2014Awesome spot to relax, catch some sun, and listen to live jazz over a pint of beer or cup of coffee.
Live music every night at 9pm. Foursquare has details on which genre maps to which night.
Jacqueline L.March 11, 2013Live music nightly that gets really crowded at the beginning, but decompresses after the first hour or so.
Douglas GallagherApril 1, 2013Best kep secret in SF...and Howell Divine kills it with the best blues in town ev'ry Sinday nite!!
James KwokJanuary 23, 2014Live music, and a great corner location. Kitchen serves up real food if you're the mood for more a nibble
Julie LoganJuly 28, 2013Great location and decor, has a solid vibe at night, but it's got one shitty cup of coffee.
SF BRAVO! CLUBOctober 19, 2011Chamber music and beer- Why yes, they do go well together! Come see for yourself- every Monday 8-11pm
Simply the most lively and friendly music cafe around. A very special place.
Come on the 3rd fri of the month. Excellent 1920's quartet! Hell, come every day, excellent music all the time.
Phoebe AcostaJune 2, 2011Greek salad is fantastic. Great for people watching, delicious coffee for cheap.
Sunday night Classical Revolution is absolutely amazing. This place has the most incredible atmosphere.
Family Folk Explosion on Sunday nights with Mark Matos and a rotating cast featuring Matt Adams, Sean Olmstead, Aaron Kierbel and many more
the music selection here is almost always excellent. today is classic blues. love it!
The barista never heard of foursquare and talked to the owner who never heard of foursquare so the Mayor definitely doesn't get anything in return for allegiance folks!
- x xAugust 29, 2010Great live music most nights of the week. Right around the corner from Elements Hostel.
