Bliss Bar

Bliss Bar

This sleek, red leather-dominated bar offers a smooth 1970s feel, complete with hidden nooks and fireplaces, plus a sweet drink menu — emphasis on sweet. This Bliss is not pure euphoria, but it'll make you happy enough.
Place Pigalle

Place Pigalle

This dive gives those in Hayes Valley who'd rather not drop rent on a bar tab a place to go. Locals love the pool table and the foosball table, and after looking around at the well-worn couches, one may wonder, "Wait, am I in a frat house?"
The Final Final

The Final Final

Its walls covered by 49ers and Giants memorabilia, the Final Final is a solid place to kick back and watch sports in the Marina, with a crowd of regulars, sports enthusiasts, and whoever else shows up to enjoy the pool table, dartboard, and free popcorn.

  • R Bar

    R Bar

    1176 Sutter San Francisco, CA 94109
    415-567-7441

    http://www.therbar.com The bare-bones exterior and block-letter signage may lead you to assume this Polk Gulch joint is a dingy hole in the wall, but the R Bar is more of a trendy hangout than a Tenderloin dive. Inside you'll find stylish, subtle lighting and snazzy decor, plus a post-collegiate crowd knocking back microbrews while sports and movies beam from multiple flat-screen TVs and rock and hip-hop blare from the CD jukebox.

  • Radio Bar

    Radio Bar

    435 13th St. Oakland, CA 94612
    510-451-2889

    http://www.facebook.com/pages/Radio/133284462450?ref=ts Very dark and very red - if this is how you like your drinking spots, you'll love Radio. A small boîte in downtown Oakland with crimson paper lanterns and candles as its only illumination, the Radio Bar goes from cozy to crowded with a quickness, especially when crowds squeeze in to hear DJs on weekends. A small, caged-in rear mezzanine area provides somewhere to escape from the bodies on the main floor. More >>

  • The Ramp

    The Ramp

    855 Terry Francois San Francisco, CA 94158
    415-621-2378

    http://www.ramprestaurant.com You almost expect to see 1970s-era Jimmy Buffett sipping margaritas on the patio of this waterfront bar with a sun-faded beach shack atmosphere. On summer weekends, however, live salsa bands fill the afternoon air with decidedly more Latin-flavored music. When enjoying the Bloody Marys and boleros, remember to bring sunglasses and watch out for seagulls. More >>

  • Rasselas Ethiopian Cuisine & Jazz Club

    Rasselas Ethiopian Cuisine & Jazz Club

    1534 Fillmore San Francisco, CA 94115
    415-346-8696

    http://www.rasselasjazzclub.com In a small, sunken, tented dining room alongside a funky jazz boîte, you'll find the most authentic and flavor-packed Ethiopian food this side of south Oakland, probably the sole Ethiopian eatery this side of the bay to merit attention. Perfect kitfo (fiery and complex "beef tartare"), fine doro wat (a dark-spiced chicken stew, the national dish), and an intriguing vegetarian combination, among others, are served atop a delicious sauce-soaking porous pancake (injera) that doubles as your eating implement and tastes way better than silverware. At night, the restaurant opens up its stage to local jazz, funk, and blues musicians, who play for anyone who wants to work off a few calories after dinner. More >>

  • Red Jack Saloon

    Red Jack Saloon

    131 Bay San Francisco, CA 94133
    415-989-0700

    New England expats will feel right at home in the Red Jack Saloon, where the relaxed, den-like environment and Bostonian sports decor might make you believe this is truly the place where everybody knows your name. When not watching the games in the main room, grab a bench at one of two picnic tables in the small rear patio, which comes complete with a fence painted like the Fenway Park scoreboard - and yet this place is so friendly, even Yankees fans should feel welcomed. (During NFL season, the Red Jack fills with Washington Redskins supporters; that team was founded in Beantown, however, so Boston purists shouldn't fret.) For those who don't care about sports, a full bar, daily drink specials, and occasional free food buffets offer distractions beyond what's screening on the TVs. More >>

    The Regency Ballroom

    1290 Sutter San Francisco, CA 94109
    415-673-5716

    http://www.theregencyballroom.com The elegant old Scottish Rite building that boasts "three separate venues" is primarily known for its Grand Ballroom, a balconied and beautiful (if not acoustically perfect) rococo room that was famous in the 1960s as the Avalon Ballroom, a hippie hotspot for iconic psychedelic groups like the Grateful Dead and Captain Beefheart. Today it hosts everything from rock bands to raves and gala celebrations. More >>

  • The Residence

    The Residence

    718 14th St. San Francisco, CA 94114
    415-626-7827

    Entering the Residence is like stepping into a sumptuous Victorian parlor. You almost expect to hear a fire crackling in the background. Instead the bar mixes old-timey appeal (like the ample eclectic seating options: fur covered poufs, velvet couches, and a black velvet fainting couch tucked in the back corner) with modern bar amenities (like the flat-screen TV). Small and cozy, the dark wood paneling and dim lighting make everyone look attractive. The crowd is calm and friendly, a healthy mix of neighborhood regulars. There's a standard 5-7 p.m. happy hour with discount well drinks and beers, but the classic cocktails, like potent Hurricanes, still cost full price. Other attractions: On Sunday nights there's a barbecue on the back porch, and on Wednesdays the owner hosts a wine and liquor tasting. More >>

    Revolution Cafe

    3248 22nd St. San Francisco, CA 94110
    415-642-0474

    http://www.myspace.com/revcafe2006 The walls of this breezy Mission District cafe display a continuously changing exhibition of local visual art, and Papa Toby's diverse music calendar follows suit. The small room -- plus an always popular sidewalk seating area -- offers free live jazz, creative folk, chamber music, and other sonic treats. More >>

  • Rickhouse

    Rickhouse

    246 Kearny San Francisco, CA 94108
    415-398-2827

    http://www.rickhousebar.com With its tall, swinging front porch doors, and an upstairs balcony that resembles an urban hayloft, the Rickhouse is downtown San Francisco's version of southern comfort. There are roughly 200 different kinds of whiskey available, but the bar's gin and vodka concoctions are just as inviting. Bartenders sporting paperboy hats and string suspenders mix 'em all up with fresh organic juices, bottled soda and berry and fruit infusions. The drink of choice is the Kentucky Buck (bourbon infused with strawberries, lemon, ginger beer and bitters); the novelty treat is the punch bowl, presented in vintage white-frosted glass. Waiting for a drink? Press your way to the second bar in the back. More >>

  • Rickshaw Stop

    Rickshaw Stop

    155 Fell San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-861-2011

    http://www.rickshawstop.com Though the Rickshaw's unmarked facade makes it a little difficult to find, you'll receive ample rewards for the search. Some of the country's most progressive DJs and indie bands play in the club's friendly confines, which features a great sound system, upstairs mezzanine for added visibility, and frequent all-ages shows for the kids.

    The Riptide

    3639 Taraval San Francisco, CA 94116
    415-759-7263

    http://www.riptidesf.com With its roaring fireplace and wood-paneled walls, hearty drinks, and amazing free live music calendar, the Riptide is a cozy home away from home for many. DJs spin punk, ska, and metal on Wednesday through Friday nights, with folk, bluegrass, and Americana bands and players taking over on Saturdays and Sundays. Homemade vittles on Friday evening, surf videos on the TV, and a friendly staff make this a perfect after-beach warm-up spot. More >>

  • Risque Lounge

    Risque Lounge

    45 Maiden San Francisco, CA 94108
    N/A

    Just as the registers close in Union Square's highbrow shopping alley, the gates of Maiden Lane open and Risque Lounge starts spinning hip-hop beats. Don't look for a sign - it's not there, but a bouncer asking if you're on the list will be. Likely hand over a cover if you're not, then proceed up the three flights of stairs into the penthouse club. A simple brick room houses a bar in the back and a DJ stage up front with a giant projector screen. Plush benches line the perimeter. Drinks come in plastic cups, beer in bottles, juice in cans. The girls here are glamorous - eyes lined in smoke, feet heeled high - and the guys are lookin' good too, even if their taste in shoes skews more toward Foot Locker than Nordstrom. More >>

  • The Rite Spot Cafe

    The Rite Spot Cafe

    2099 Folsom San Francisco, CA 94110
    415-552-6066

    http://www.ritespotcafe.net Folk and jazz dominate the Spot's ever-improving ambience, whose sense of style lies somewhere between a dive bar and a dinner club: casual cocktails and comfort grub (e.g., burgers, pasta, sandwiches) fill the menu, while local art and tablecloths add a sense of class for those who like it nice. A perfect place to see live music and sit comfortably while noshing on a plate of your favorite carbohydrates. More >>

    RN74

    301 Mission San Francisco, CA 94105
    415-543-7474

    http://www.michaelmina.net/restaurant.php?restaurant_id=3 The hotly awaited wine bar from Michael Mina features an impressive wine list from many countries as well as France, where you'll find the highway running through Burgundy after which the place is named. We prefer the bar menu to the dining room menu (some dishes are available on both). The stylish room is reminiscent of a train station, with a high-arched ceiling, exposed struts, and signboards mimicking train departure boards that list wines instead of destinations. An interesting cocktail list attracts crowds (and noise). More >>

    http://www.roccapulco.com Salsa dancing is the featured attraction at this gigantic Mission District supper club, which loves nothing more than a great party (including annual extravaganzas for Mardi Gras and Carnaval). Weekend events are usually $10-$15, with special international band performances costing extra. More >>
