Cool spot...errr, the only spot in Cole Valley. You'll get looks from the locals, until you realize that they're all from New Jersey or Ohio and have only been in the city 3 years longer than you have
Grace S.February 17, 2014Spicy and savory bloody Mary's w/ lots of Worcestershire and a deliciously seasoned pickled string bean!
Krystha DartJanuary 18, 2012I just flat out love this bar. The backyard has a ping pong table and if you're waiting for a table at Zazie, you can hang out inside Finnegan's and get a drink (uh..or two) while you wait.
Clay FoxJuly 3, 2021Great place to catch a match. Excellent beers on tap. Beautiful back patio. Pool table. And fantastic bloody Mary's.
WhiskeyAvengerJune 12, 2018Cool back patio. Plenty of space to sit,drink and smoke. Great selection of beer and decent whisk(e)y selection.
Cozy little bar with a nice back patio. Perfect for a sunny day.
ClandestineDrinkerAugust 14, 2019A great place to grab a drink and kill time while you wait for your table at Zazie’s.- San Francisco MagazineApril 25, 2013Pickled string beans, olives and a celery stick come on one of the best Bloody Marys in town. Read more
Craig BernsteinJune 20, 2016Formerly Maud’s Study, a historic San Francisco lesbian bar that operated from 1966 to 1989.
Josh BowdenDecember 18, 2013Cash only. Good for a drink to kill time while you await for your table next door at Zazie.
WinstonFebruary 20, 2010If you're waiting to eat brunch at Zazie, you can write on the waitlist that you're at Finnegan's, and the host will come and get you. Love it!
Vish MakhijaniMay 13, 2011Good on a sunny day. Crowd is pretty nice and drinks are reasonable. Bring cash.
Nathan RhoadsJuly 10, 2011Old school bartenders. If you don't know what you're doing, be prepared for some surliness.
Be Irish. It goes a long way with Murph, the bartender.
Great bloody mary's. Be prepared for some east coast sarcasm.
Jeremy RuppelJuly 4, 2010Don't waste your cash on the over-priced liqour. Buy beer. Also, smokers, bring your infra-red goggles because the back porch has no lighting.
Danielle FJune 14, 2014WOULD be a great bar if the bartenders didn't get so heated/wasted. Watched one yell "fuck you" to a girl trying to get a drink, & then kicked a guy out for speaking up. Eek...
This is a great place to see friends and watch curling.
