For a bohemian respite with great food, make sure you check out Starlight Social room where the cocktails are cool and the scene is way, way cooler than anything in SF. Read more

Some great views of Union Square from up here, great drinks, fun music, and romantic views. Head up, sit down, order a few drinks and enjoy the view.

I always get the VIP treatment here for me and my friends even though I don't like clubs that much. However it's more fun when I know a lot of people.
Tasting TableJune 19, 2012
Order the carbonated Negroni, among the well-made cocktails, a stand-out. The classic cocktail for two is carbonated and served tableside from a glass carafe: Read more

Decorated like an old-school lounge on the 21st floor of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, you can drink, dance, see a drag show and enjoy a stunning view of the city.

#Floor21 on Wednesdays is the new city's new gay hip Wednesday eve party, hosted by drag queen socialite and impresario Juanita MORE! Every Wednesday from 5pm-9pm.

Great night view of the city lights. Went up for a drink, stayed for two for the view!

It was amazing. Will be back again and tell everyone to go

Great club over looking Union Square, SF. Goes off Wednesday nights especially the third Wed of every month (they have go-go dancers). Very classy place

Bartender Devin will make you a happy drink... A veeerrryyy happy drink. ;)
Allen DuskApril 16, 2011
A beautiful swanky lounge high atop a hotel...killer drinks and mood lighting...but crappy 90's Hip Hop and a last call at 11:45...WTF Harry?
SFGate ManagerJuly 16, 2012
This is San Francisco's eternal nod to bar glamour. Try the classic 1950s martinis.

The brunch is AMAZING.
Ruben AlanisJanuary 13, 2012
Harry came up and talked with me for a while, gave me some tips on the city, then bought me a drink. Say hi to him I he's there, the guy is a baller!
Joy XuanDecember 29, 2011
Order the High Flyer (absinthe, lemon, hibiscus cordial, peach soda)
Chris EhrDecember 30, 2013
Sunday Drag Brunch a must do in SF, front row seats rock!
squeaselDecember 6, 2012
oh my god. this reminds me of "fancy" clubs in tijuana in the 80s. Also I just saw like a 100 year old dude actually boogying to disco stick.
Noelle C. RodgersJune 10, 2012
Checkin out the view and OH MY GOODNESS...We saw a couple having SEX! How Fun Is That?!?!!Pay attention now!
John LongAugust 9, 2014
Great night time views and dancing
Josh HolzhaeuserDecember 17, 2013
Great view and a definite good time!
jana masseyJuly 11, 2010
decor maybe needs an upgrade, but friendly staff, great view and nice place to take out-of-town guests

A mixologist can create a $200 cocktail that’s a blend of cognacs, heated up to perfection for your drinking pleasure.

Great music, so much fun...
DonaldFebruary 2, 2012
This place is one of the city's staples. super overpriced though (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Good views of union Sq!

Looks like an old @playboy club from the 70's/early 80's ... I was a toddler in pampers back then but it just feels right...
Kim MaplesSeptember 16, 2012
Cassandra Cass rocks the drag queen brunch!
Louise LewissonJune 10, 2010
Great view. Cover charge is a pain but it has a lot of history here
Andrew HarveyFebruary 2, 2015
Full of pretence and lacking substance. The view is all right but it doesn't save this soulless venue from itself.
Todd WeisrockJanuary 27, 2015
Great view
Amir TarbyatjouiAugust 10, 2014
Good cocktail
CaseyOctober 19, 2013
This place is horrible. Charged $5 a person if you're not saying in the hotel, and charged my boyfriend & I double that. Then denied it. Save your money and go somewhere else.
Matt SissonOctober 19, 2013
Don't bother. You'll be happier somewhere else. The rude staff will greet you at the door to take a cover charge, and then proceed to tell you to remove clothing if it doesn't meet their dress code.
Mindy LevensJune 1, 2014
Great view!
ECavaJune 5, 2010
Ask for Peter, the manager, to recommend a drink.
Jimmy GaleSeptember 26, 2010
Sunday's A Drag is amazing... Especially when Holotta Tymes emcee's....
Kim DanielsOctober 15, 2011
Loud cheesy music, but decent atmosphere
Laura GibsonApril 19, 2010
Sip on something that sparkles and celebrate each day that is your life!

The scent of cougars and cocktail dresses await you.

Why have a roofdeck if you don't use it?
Maybs MJune 19, 2011
Find a sugar daddy here.
JesukiDecember 2, 2010
great view!
Mark CarrollJune 8, 2011
Seriously needs an upgrade.
ashleigh rOctober 23, 2011
B*tch a$$ waitresses. Avoid the dumb blonde at all costs.
Holly BrownJune 4, 2010
Club dancing music
EaterNovember 18, 2014
Grab a classy cocktail high above the hustle and bustle of Union Square here. This place has an old world vibe, swanky leather booths and tinkly piano music. Come back on Sunday for the drag brunch. Read more
Sasha TkachenkoJanuary 7, 2015
Приятное место. Главное, конечно, это вид. И уж не знаю, чего это они так хвалятся своим виски сауэром - он у них весьма посредственный.
