- This is one of the few great music venues left in the city. So much history! If you love music, this place belongs on your bucket list, especially if you have seen a favorite band here. ( ; - )Upvoted 1 week ago
- One of the greatest venues in San Francisco. A must if you're visiting. See the giant poster room, grab a free apple, and grab a poster on the way out if the show sells out. Always a treat.Upvoted 4 days ago
- Ian WalterOctober 14, 2014Most legendary music venue in SF. Great sound, not overly crowded even when sold out. Go early and check out the posters from all of the shows over the years in the bar room upstairs.
- Alex GronbachFebruary 2, 2018A great venue, which was intimate but at the same time not crowded with 1200 people inside. Looking forward to going back!
- If you want your souvenir poster, you'll have to wait until the very end of the show. It's worth it, as they're often beautifully designed.
- DaShon McCollinsApril 5, 2016First Time Here And It Was For A Yung Lean Concert! 📢📢📢📢📢Such A Sick Venue, And I Also Enjoyed The Photo Art Around The Hallway Area! 🖼
- StephanySeptember 9, 2018See ANY show here. Any band you love will be 10x better at this iconic SF venue.
- Make sure you go upstairs to see all the posters, and grab a free apple on your way in.
- Staff PicksDecember 17, 2015Beach House is taking a three night residency at the Filmore for concerts in support of their latest album "Thank Your Lucky Stars". Grab tickets before they quickly sell out! Read more
- RMay 12, 2019How could one not love the Fillmore? It's like the Vatican of West coast rock, soul, and blues. Every act I've seen there is reinvigorated by the soul of the venue.
- Brian StraussJune 8, 2015The best venue in San Francisco? Also don't forget to grab an apple -- they are always free and usually stupendous. Don't know where they get them.
- Free apples, free posters, awesome shows. Hard to find a bad view. Check out the posters upstairs and stop by the bar while you're up there!
- Jonathan FlemingNovember 2, 2011Love The Fillmore it's legendary...last person I saw there was Karl Denson, it is one of my fave places to hear music, I have seen Prince, George Clinton and many more play there, it is special.
- ladies: bring an extra hair tie - if your show's sold out, you can use it to get that free poster home safe! fellas: i dunno... make sure you grab an apple or something.
- To get a poster you have to stay until the show is over. Make sure you grab one. Also take time to get to the venue early so you can views all the old posters upstairs. Well worth your time!
- Justin SullivanSeptember 20, 2014An easier path to the front? Head to the right on the opposite side from the bar.
- I love the chandeliers, the history, even the sticky floors help add atmosphere. Fun place to see shows.
- Ray HartjenMarch 16, 2015Historic music venue. All shows are good because it's the FILLMORE! Catch a drink in the Poster room upstairs.
- gail.November 12, 2014The poster room has a great vantage point & is a fun place to hang out during opening bands that you're not that into.
- A SSeptember 15, 2016My favorite place for gigs in SF. Nice sound (better than Great American Music hall)
- Take your time, breathe it in. Cooler people than you have spent time here. Your ego is worthless.
- Taylor TanOctober 31, 2010Go to a concert that sells out a few days in advance and you usually get a free poster on your way out. Plus, take a look at the posters and realize how many musical gods have graced the auditorium...
- One of my favorite music venues! Access to huge, delicious, red apples is a definite plus 😋🍎
- Kian LaviJuly 13, 2016Love this historic joint. And free posters after each show! and earplugs! 👂 and apples!
- S YMay 4, 2011The greeter's name is Tim (the guy in the cowboy attire). Sometimes the apple barrel is removed at the band's request. Free posters are handed out to concertgoers after *most* sold out shows.
- Bill WoodworthFebruary 17, 2013The jerk roaming around the entrance near the box office will do everything possible to antagonize and ruin your night before you even get inside. Total disgrace to such a historic music venue.
- I love the Willie Nelson painting/sculpture over the fireplace, complete with a string of red xmas lights instead of fire!
- Best music venue in SF! Be sure to check out the poster collection upstairs.
- Travel + LeisureJuly 30, 2012Don’t leave without checking out the upstairs Poster Room—with psychedelic vintage poster art—and without grabbing a free apple.
- Mitsuo YoshikiAugust 26, 2011Great hospitality. A place full of history. If you are here to perform, check out and talk to Mary, the monitor engineer. Great job by all the staff.
- The apples are delicious! Also love their tradition of handing out posters after the show.
- Beautiful temple kween palace of music // favorite place in the world
- Anthony BuadaFebruary 23, 2010Been here plenty of times. Line starts where the Post Office doors are. 38 MUNI stops in front of the Post Office as well. At the end of some shows, they give you a free poster which is awesome :)
- Really nice staff who helped me get access to the elevators because of my leg
- Scottie MilagroNovember 17, 2014Get as close to the stage as possible or you'll have some trouble seeing the band
- Now there are tables around the floor?! Get there early and enjoy a pre-show cocktail
- ScoutmobNovember 28, 2011When The Fillmore re-opened on April 27, 1994, it was The Smashing Pumpkins playing an unannounced surprise show that filled the venue with music once again.
- The Fox ruined the SF music scene, but The Fillmore is still going strong.
