Gavin SchulzAugust 17, 2014Classy space but a bit too dark for my tastes. I would recommend the Commonwealth.
I'll probably never order anything but the Merchant(Moscow) Mule here, it's that good.
great bartenders- they play great music and make excellent cocktails. there's a cage for smokers. nice and dark.
Some drink named something Presbyterian is delicious if you like whiskey
Mike RennOctober 1, 2011Jill aka. Bills is the best bartender in sf, strong drinks worth the coin, love it!- Sarah TrottApril 1, 2010Don't order a common drink - the bartenders are talented and able to make wonderfully satisfying, complex drinks Read more
Andrew CrookstonNovember 18, 2012Expected nothing but this place has a GREAT crew making GREAT drinks!
Bartenders are amazing! Anything from this place is good. Tell them what you like and they'll come up with something on the fly!
Order the "whiskey sour that used to be on the menu" they all know how to make it - brandies cherries and all :-)
My favorites are the egg white drinks. They don't taste eggy at all. They just add a nice smoothness and frothiness to the cocktails.

Great place for cocktails. Would definitely recommend trying one of their whiskey sours.
Brian PatnodeJune 22, 2014There is a bouncer there who is an ass. Truly is a complete jerk and my experience was so bad that despite the good cocktails and atmosphere, i will never go back there again! EVER! but thats just me.

"A place with a modern take on classic libations, and a clientele that's a raucous mix of office workers letting loose and mixology aficionados. Try the Sazerac with locally distilled Old Potrero Rye."

"What's good here?? What a question! This is and underground 1930s newsstand themed lounge with LIVE music- not just music- a FULL band. I had an amazing beer and their 'barbarella' cocktail- amazing!"
