    The theme here is brandy — the name in fact refers to the northern French tradition of sipping Calvados between courses to aid digestion — but the cocktail menu runs the gamut of classics. Read more

    The FiDi's weekend-ghost-town status means you can usually snag a table at this hip spot, where semolina pancakes with huckleberries, wild-mushroom scrambles, and asparagus-coppa salads. Read more

    This Bar Agricole spinoff features the same streamlined cocktail stylings that put the original SOMA spot on the map, with a strong focus on Armagnac, Cognac, & Calvados sourced directly from France. Read more

    Look out onto the courtyard of the historic Pacific Telephone Building from your seat on the giant back patio of this restaurant whilst you gobble up cheese and charcuterie and sip a classic cocktail. Read more

    Upside: charcuterie, old fashioned, daiquiri. Downside: none. This place is amazing.

    Cute spot with good ambiance and cocktails. Seemed to be training staff when I was there, so service was slow. Burger is decent but has a lot of mustard seeds, so expect a specific flavor profile.

    The drinks are the best in the city! All fruit juice is fresh, the bitters are handmade, the ice cubes are hand carved, and they're all classic cocktail recipes. Trou normands are only $5! Great meal.

    The cocktails, burger, and charcuterie were all exceptional. I can't wait to come back here. Also great ambiance and service. A true hidden gem 💁🏻

    Very good food overall. Charcuterie, which is house made, was outstanding. Mortadella was awesome. What was annoying was pricing seemed mismatched for items and over priced. Service was not memorable

    This downtown spot from the Bar Agricole team has food (including gorgeous charcuterie) all day, with a cognac-focused cocktail list by Thad Vogler. Try the cognac Old Fashioned!

    The cocktails *are* good. Lots of calvados. The Old Fashioned is potent. Have fun.

    Collin is an amazing bartender. All the alcohol choices are legitimate. By the time the food showed up I had forgotten what was ordered, but it was delicious. Crispy ball things were amazing.

    Great wine list and good cocktails! The food is on the pricey side (even for SF!) for the quality and portions that you get.

    Huge space—can easily snag a table for 6+ during the week with little advanced notice. Cool glassed-in outdoor space in the back. Meatballs are delicious.

    The salumi, pate, et al can be very confusing for a first-timer. Just get the chef's selection. The medium size was perfect for a party of five hungry people.

    The maitake mushroom sandwich is a knockout. It is a crunchy, creamy totally satisfying and cravable treat.

    Great cocktails and food. Gratuity is already included in the price (more places should do this!). Loved the rabbit salami and pork chop!

    Trou Normand is a mecca for French spirits and charcuterie, much of which is plucked straight from the source and cured in the back, respectively. Read more

    Old fashioned and charcuterie! They have a range of cognac and Armagnac from France. The decoration and the building are great!

    Like its sibling Bar Agricole, TN is housed in a beautiful space. The agricole rum daiquiri is wonderfully​ complex despite its simple recipe.

    Fried squid, great summer drinks. Ask to sit on the patio out back if weather is nice.

    Pork meatballs were excellent. Trendy place with no ingredients from "big corporations." The cola was pretty tasty too if you like it with a lot of ginger.
