Great cocktail bar with the best wings ever … you wouldn’t think that walking in but get them! And every cocktail I’ve ever had there has been amazing.
Excellent cocktails in a warm, inviting atmosphere. It feels like having drinks in the home of a close friend. The snack items are flavorful, and the drinks are incredibly well-balanced and refined. Bartenders are fast and friendly, and attentive to all patrons. Big bonus: no TVs to distract you from your friends! One of our favorite places in Haight.
nice vibe and nice spot. doesnt feel inviting initially cause there is no standing room but if you get a table its nice to hang out here. if your prefer a pub vibe this isnt it. if you like an elegant vibe this is close to that. good date night if you get one of the two sweaters cause it isnt too loud or too quiet. good beers on drought and good selection of cocktails and wines. service is iffy, but if youre a patient person you wont mind. overall not bad. I go here often when I need to pee and I am at empire. chug a beer, and use the bathroom.
My favourite bar in the city. Incredible cocktails with inspired and surprising flavors and great seasonal offerings means that you will always have something delicious and curious to try! Amazing curated beer selection also and great scratch-made food. I love everything on their menu: the burger, the house chips, scotch egg, the wings, the pickles, the olives, the pate, the fries, the mussels etc etc all great! Check out the monday night classes too, super fun for a date night or solo adventure (just… dont plan anything important on tuesday morning!!)
Stopped in on a whim. Cool spot. Mind boggling selection of spirits. Nicely crafted cocktail. Pleasant staff. Food was good though we only sample a few items. Would definitely go back if in the area again.
