Such a wonderful wine bar. Perfect for a drink and some small bites before a show at the nearby Symphony or SFJazz. The staff is friendly and super knowledgeable, their wine selection is excellent, and you can browse the bottles right there and have a direct look at the labels, etc. Also a some yummy snacks including salmon dip and deviled eggs. Will definitely come here more regularly.

Amazing wine bar—we stumbled upon it absolutely randomly and just loved the atmosphere at first glance. We tried 4 different wines, and all of them were excellent. The crab cakes and focaccia were good too. I highly recommend this place for its nice and quiet atmosphere and good wine choices.

Such a cute place! The covered patio has a lovely, chill vibe. The wines are excellent. The host is really nice. Explains all the wines so well. Yummy appetizers. Must visit!

This place has an adorable patio in the back. It’s shielded from the wind, which, in SF, is a non-trivial matter. I thought the wine selection was quirky and delectable. I went with an oenophile — and he confirmed their wines were quite fine. The pistachio feta dip plate was fun. At $11, I’d happily recommend it.

Cute little Hayes Valley wine shop, with excellent accompanying bites (charcuterie, cheese, dips). Quaint backyard oasis patio — perfect for catching up with friends or a first date. Highly recommended for those seeking a low-key and unique side to San Francisco.

EXCELLENT times are awaiting you at Birba. Featuring 2 patios, an intimate interior, and a personable staff, this is a cute rest stop to sip and people watch, catch up, or get to know a new cutie! Food menu looks complementary to their beverage list. Shout out to Abby and Shannon, thank you for the smiles and Lambrusco!

The patio is confortable and cute. The drinks and food were great. I would happily go back for more. They also sell wine bottles and imported Italian snacks.

The whole vibe is lovely and quiet (off the beaten path of insane busy Hayes) but always good looking people who know what’s good in the neighborhood be socializing and nibbling here. Food is special with creative offerings. I got $12 hummus and it came with a huge plate of crackers and veggies. I’ll be coming back here again with friends! And there is a small patio out back that is gorgeous. Ownership here is🧚🏻‍♀️

This place is a rad little spot. They're soo nice! and their selection of wines are full of so many gem's you've never heard of. Their staff is always friendly and knowledgeable to boot! Edit* Still going strong and they finally got their back patio open. If you haven't been yet come over and enjoy this magic diamond in the rough.

Loved it. Lovely, knowledgeable staff serving a wonderful, wide selection of beautiful and unique drinks. We tried delicious vermouth, sherry and amaro and super tasty green olives and peanuts. Would 100% recommend and will return whenever next in the city. Thank you Birba x

Stopped here for a glass of wine before dinner and it was perfect! While we waited for a seat in the backyard, we ordered a glass of wine and they were super kind and made sure we knew they didn’t forget about us.

What a lovely little wine bar. It’s only a block away from Hayes. They have a nice selection of wine. There is seating up front at the parklet and in the back. The pistachio and feta appetizer is soooooo good. I would come back to buy that if they sold it! We also ordered a meat and cheese plate which is more meat and 1 cheese. I thought that it would have more cheese options. They also sell food sundries inside. Will have to come back and check it out. I have my eye on the truffle sea salt.

Got a couple of apps and a glass of wine just for myself. Was a good experience overall, I will probably come back with a couple of girlfriends :). The deviled eggs was just ok, but the anchovy plate and glass of red I got were both great.

Staff is great and welcoming; atmosphere is wonderful and casual, lighting gives great vibes; we sat out back in a super cute patio. Food was delicious, and we got several appetizers and bottles of wine. This was just a happy hour catch up with friends and not a main meal. For the apps that required small slices of bread to eat with, they purposely give you less than you need tho I'm unsure if we had to pay for the extra order of bread. I like that when you're ready to leave, you don't wait for the check but head to the cashier inside and pay there. Overall a pleasant experience on the pricey side, not that we were trying to conserve costs.

Lacks personality, feels like the demo floor of a crate&barrel. Wine selection is all over the place. They require to hold on to a credit card before you order anything, which makes no sense when you are sitting down in the back patio and they push for you to order food as well. Will not return.
