  • Brandon Dixon

This is a spacious dive bar off am already great street. They offer a great selection of beer including sours and have plenty of seating. There are pool tables towards the back and live music plays upfront. The night I arrived here, dj Heidi was there spinning some older hits on vinyl. Not your typical music, but very welcome.

Drink was terrible, food took 30min and wasn't served as ordered. They told a regular they are only serving food to be open during covid; it shows. Store employee parked, illegally, in a handicap spot and went inside to work. Employees were also taking shots of Jameson in the back. Mask were not being worn correctly.

  • Ian Lesikar

Relaxed environment that's usually not too crowded. Live bluegrass music on Sundays and kareoke on Fridays. Fair selection of drinks at decent prices with a good selection of house cocktails. They have a pool table thats first come first serve. Come here if you're looking to hang with the locals.

  • Senor Fish

For whatever reason, the bartender seemed like she'd rather be somewhere else and wasn't personable. On top of that after being in the bar for several hours I was told I had to pay $15 to stay because a cover band was playing. It ruined what started off as a fun beginning.

  • Al Val

Karaoke djs are notoriously bad in general, but this place has it really bad. I left him a 20 dollar tips and asked to be put up at least twice before i needed to go to tend family matter. He ignored me put me up for one song put everybody

I went to a jam there on a Wednesday night jam night. It's a small, comfortable local bar which is friendly. Jams vary from night to night but it's usually very good there. So tell your friends and get over there for some good music on

  • Mike Rob

I was there on a Wednesday night for my pool league. It started off quiet which was a nice introduction for this bar. Then a band showed up and played live music which was a nice backdrop. Despite the amount of people the service was

This is a great neighborhood bar. There's always lots of friendly locals and the bartenders make good drinks. There's free Karaoke every Friday night and it's not packed (sometimes there's less than 10 people in the bar).

  • Russell Sprunger

Watched a David Bowie tribute band and they were great. There was only one bartender and it was busy so getting a drink was a bit slow, but at least we had great entertainment while we waited. Would go back! More

  • Eric Miller

Karaoke night is a ton of fun. Lots of interesting characters show up to belt out tunes with gusto and varying degrees of talent. This is a friendly, fun, dive bar that offers a pure slice of quintessential SF.

  • kimmie

Terrible covid19 safety measures. No gloves. The bartender kept removing their mask. Two people were sitting at the bar having drinks. It may have been a nice local bar if times were different, but during a

  • Nathan Beattie

Great no frills local dive. Bar tender is amazing, super fun to chat with. We are heading back from blue grass night! If you're looking for a local joint to wet your beak, you've found it 5+ nights a week!

  • G S

Great neighborhood dive bar, okay one step up from a dive. I never feel uncomfortable there, their drink menu has depth, great music a lot of different days, check their website, a Bernal Hts treasure

  • Laura Duchossois

Went on a Saturday night paid $10 each cover charge. Bar was completely packed... standing room only... hot and humid inside. It wasn't pleasant. Stood outside to continue listening to the band. More

  • Rick Rees

Fun neighborhood dive. The small stage puts the band right with the crowd. Good sound. Small place but rock'n last night. Packed crowd. Parking was easy on the street for a Saturday night.

  • Klarese Donnelly

Always a decent time. They often have live music, and otherwise it's a nice quiet local spot. Semi-friendly, semi-affordable, and has a pool table. Biased since it's local but I like it :)

  • Matthew Higgins

Local spot that is great for watching a ball game. Drinks aren't as cheap as other places. The Friday karaoke night is better on the early side when the hidden vocal talent hits the mic.

  • Joseph Phillips

Fantastic local dive, with frequent live music and cheap drinks. The crusty regular bartender will size you up, and based on his whims he may or may not ever take your order. More

  • aaron z

This bar supports Live Music, nice folks on both sides of the bar . A real neighborhood institution. Bluegrass on Sunday from 4-7 pm all for free. It's a cash only place.

  • Travelbug

It’s hard to find any reason not to like a neighborhood bar like this. Bart tender Mike was great to chat with is just making it more fun to patronize the place

  • tomdegraff

It's a great bar for pool players. Friendly bartenders, too. A neighborhood bar feel. In Bernal Heights across from nice local grocery and restaurants nearby.

  • Andrew Ianni

Friendly service, comfy dive bar vibe, 7 bucks for Titos rocks. Warriors game on the TVs..What else do you need? All around quality establishment.
