This is the spot! Super cool bartenders, chill vibes and a nice lil arcade in the back with some pinball machines, donky Kong, street fighter & shooter game. If you like chill dive bars then go here!

Fantastic local bar! Really enjoyed my old fashioned and espresso martini. Might have had a sip of my daughter's whiskey mule and it was fantastic too. Looking for a beer? Yup, they have you covered! Draft and bottle. Cleveland fan? Apparently this is your spot. We will be back!

One of the best dive bars in SF! The entire staff are kind and respectful with dark/fun humor! I've visited for years and never once have experienced a bad visit. Also, great for watching football games!!! I highly recommend you check this place out!

Five stars! One of my Favorite Bar in San Francisco. Excellent Staff and drink specials. Owners are great and it's the perfect place for Fernet shots! TY

Service was awesome, Chris was fantastic - all around great experience! If you are looking for a comfortable, relaxed neighborhood bar full of welcoming and friendly people...this is it! Chris knew most, if not all of his patrons and if he didn’t know you, he came and introduced himself. I love that!

Nice neighborhood bar with strong drinks, friendly bartenders and a fun game room. This is a great place for a birthday party or to start a pub crawl. They have a nice variety of drinks with fun names and good prices.

Love this bar. Always a great atmosphere and tasty food. Favorite bartenders too. Justin is the man. He makes great cocktails and makes the place feel like home. Definitely recommend.

Stayed in San Fran this week on vacation and found this wonderful bar. Lindsay, the day shift bartender gave wonderful advice for good local spots. The locals were friendly and helpful as well. Drinks were more than reasonably priced. The bouncer, a Corgi named Arlo, kept everyone in line :) Overall, a great place that made us feel right at home.

Nice chill neighborhood bar. Staff is friendly and quick to get you a drink when needed. They also have a nice arcade area and allow well behaved dogs. This is probably one of the only bars in SF with A/C as well so perfect for a hot day

10/10 burgers great food and atmosphere. I came in here, loved the food as I usually do, but had an issue. I left a review not thinking much more about it and then management contacted me wanting to fix any issues I had. Well I must say, this restaurant is top notch in customer service and food. I'll be coming back here more regularly with friends because of the hospitality. I highly suggest coming here they will absolutely take care of you and care about their customers it seems! Thanks for the delightful response to the owner/management righting a wrong. Check out The Morrison on Los Feliz Blvd for the best burgers in Los Angeles CA

It's a really cool bar but my girlfriend wanted another drink after I closed my tab originally so I went ahead and bought her another one. It turns out there's a 15 minimum so I had to buy another drink for myself even though I already spent 60. luckily this isn't normally a problem for me but come on man. pretty lame.

Horrible experience. Bartender treated me super bad, she made me paid for something I didn't buy, insulted me, and kicked me out of the place. This is the worst bar I've attended during Cralloween, I advice to stay as far away as possible from this place. I left feeling cheated and insulted.

Echoing others - rude staff. Walked in right around opening and the woman working already had a bad and sarcastic attitude + seemed irritated by having to serve someone. Left and didn’t order. Friendlier bars to spend your money in the area.

Yesterday, a girl working at the bar gave my friend less than half of his change, saying it was her tip. When he asked for the rest, she started insulting him. Very unprofessional — I don’t recommend going there.

Yesterday some friends went to a bar and were mistreated by a waitress at the bar. They paid for drinks they never got. Poor service.

Rude. We weren’t bothering anyone while we waited outside for our Lyft. My girlfriend was smoking and that’s when they asked us to leave. As a veteran I’m disappointed on that kind of behavior. I will black list it to my units list to not go there. Saves them the time from any headache. Better of going elsewhere where they can have fun. Not be judged.
