Best open mic in town on Mondays. And I'm not just saying that because I'm the host. Trust me, doesn't get much more entertaining than this.
Claire BruceNovember 20, 2012Went on open mic night. Great acts and open late (til 2am) on a Monday. Friendly people. Didnt try the food, but great atmosphere. 'Rustic'...not for the snooty. Definitely coming back.Upvoted 4 weeks ago
The food here is by far the best I've had in a bar, and its quality and presentation rivals any gourmet restaurant. My favorite is the chicken sandwich. The bartenders ( Erin! :) ) are great too.- Geoffroy BablonNovember 4, 2014Incredible open mic on Mondays starting at 8pm. The line up is talented, goes till late, and generally has a featured artist with a 30-45m show. Mileage there may vary... Eat a burger and listen up.
Mary ThengvallJanuary 5, 2014order the Chelsea Fries or Tots -- pesto cheesy amazingness, named after the equally amazing bartendress.
Time Out San FranciscoNovember 26, 2014Come support local artist Rivvrs as he woos you with eclectic blend of folk, pop, and elements of soul. Go for the Utah Burger while jamming out to sweet tunes! Sat, 11/29, 9pm. $10. Read more
BommyApril 23, 2016Around 8 basic beers on tap. Basket of garlic and parmesan fries is huge and should be shared. Hot and crispy 🍟
Cobb salad is again a solid choice. Try and catch the KFC chicken sando special buffalo style.
Raj S.August 17, 2014They've usually got some live band playing. Bar food is decent. Good spot to meet up with friends before or after the Giants game.- Thursdays only: KFC sandwich Buffalo style. Perfectly battered, fresh chicken breast with hot sauce and blue cheese, paired with salad or the Utah fries. Absolutely awesome.
Ali AndersonNovember 30, 2014intimate music venue w solid food and beer options. check out Monday open mic night.
SFGate ManagerJuly 16, 2012This lively hangout is a beer-and-a-shot kind of place. Try any of the 12 beers on tap and the fried provolone cheese sandwich.
Katherine M.June 24, 2014The Bold Italic says to read in the window seats. Everyone else says to go to open mic on Mondays and to listen to live music.
Elliot MarshallNovember 25, 2013Small intimate venue to check out a band, I saw the Josh Berwanger band and they rocked!
Florian MettetalJune 8, 2012Make sure to checkout the intimate seating for live music events. The second floor deck is especially cool.
The brunch menu has GREATLY improved. Honky Tonk Country Sunday brunch is a blast. Check the schedule for the Afternoon Delight Social Band.
Matt DewaltJuly 8, 2019Classic San Franciscan pub with an old wooden phone booth converted into a photo booth. photomatica.com
Every Monday there's an open mic starting at 7 pm. It is a fun cozy place
Krystal NordJune 28, 2011The bartender told us places to go for food and was right on the money. Made my San Francisco experience complete, thank you Aaron!
Damn good Bloody Mary. Basic but oh-so-perfect. Loads of horsey make your sinuses tingle. Delish.- The WiFi password is 'saloon500'. And make sure to get Special Utah Sauce with your fries! I love the fried provolone and the mac and cheese!!!
Order a SMALL (large is enormous) basket of fries. Enjoy!
Susan LohMay 25, 2013the fries are good but if you're a mac and cheese fan, you won't be disappointed.
BayZest.comNovember 1, 2012Love the gyros here! Gyro, fries, beer puts a perfect end to the workday.- The cobb salad isn't as good as it used to be. Overcooked chicken and the portion has shrunk for the same price.
Jane is the sweetest bartender ever so TIP HER. Read more
If you get hungry, order the fries. You get a lot for less. But don't forget the kitchen closes at 11:00 pm.
