Featured Bars/Clubs


http://www.straybarsf.com What's in a name? At this Bernal drinkery, the word "Stray" combines both "straight" and "gay" - meaning the bar is queer-friendly without being strictly limited to LGBT clientele - while its dog-centric attitude means errant pooches can feel welcome as well. (The red walls are even full of canine-themed art, in case you didn't get the latter part of the equation already.) Friendly servers, fair prices, comfy couches, Ms. Pac Man, and a small pool table tucked into the rear room provide other ways to make you feel right at home.

http://www.studsf.com Although small and cramped when packed, the Stud rules over other gay clubs with some of the best local DJs, innovative club nights, wild drag queen performances, and overall atmosphere. This old SOMA standby eschews the flashy glitz of trendy new nightclubs, instead cultivating a comfortable, almost bordello-like environment with lots of warm wood surfaces and plenty of dark corners in which to canoodle with your latest date.

http://www.sugarcafesf.com Sugar Cafe is a rare breed. Is it a coffee shop, restaurant, bar, club, or laptop workstation? Yes to all the above - sort of. It opens at 6 a.m. and closes at 2 a.m. Before 5 p.m., one can enjoy a beer (many by the bottle, such as Red Stripe or Stella) or imported wines by the glass. After 5 p.m., it clicks into full bar mode and serves cocktails. Food is offered all day and ranges from house-made pastries to truffle fries and pomegranate-glazed lamb. The space features a long bar, ample seating with a few tables and plush modern couches, and a gas fireplace that always seems to be on, no matter what the time or temperature is. The crowd is pretty Academy of Art, as it's located in the middle of so-called dormitory alley. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.sugarloungesf.com As the name suggests, sugar and alcohol go hand in hand here at the Sugar Lounge. Young Hayes Valley locals line the bar as attractive bartenders vivaciously shake martinis and house specialties like the "Bees Knees," which is full of honey and Jameson. Beer is limited to bottles and the selection is conventional (e.g., Sierra Nevada), but the cult following is here to swoon over a happy hour that includes discounted drinks and free snacks like veggie tempura, chicken teriyaki, and chips from 5-7 p.m. weekdays. Other attractive traits: they accept credit cards without a minimum and the space has a cozy, warm vibe thanks to the sparkling candles, plush couches, and dark wood accents.

In somewhat paradoxical twist, the Summer Place is not the sun-dappled waterfront party palace you might expect from the name, but a low-lit cocktail hideaway in the city's urban center. The atmosphere is casual and clean, with a subtly retro vibe (e.g., castered seats with tuck-and-roll upholstery) that recalls the 1970s. A fireplace, some vintage lamps, and strings of colored Christmas lights provide most of the illumination, while a digital jukebox provides a soundtrack that varies as the crowd changes with the hours of the day.

http://www.supperclub.com If you like Burning Man-style costumes and dance performances, but prefer sleek Euro-chic furnishings and frou-frou appetizers to chewing on dusty desert sand, Supperclub is for you. This club features multiple areas: a crimson entry bar (Le Bar Rouge) with numerous disco balls, a side room (La Chambre Noir) with communal sofa beds and stuffed animals, and the main performance space (La Salle Neige) with more sofa beds, a balcony, kitchen, and small combined runway/stage. Resident DJ Michael Anthony fills in the musical gaps on most nights, with famous guest DJs often appearing on weekends. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
In terms of both location and personality, Sutter Station is one part Financial District and one part Tenderloin. This Market Street bar's got carpeting, dark wood, and a (fake) fireplace -- so it's certainly not a filthy dive by any means -- but with two pool tables, a jukebox filled chock-a-block with popular compilation CDs, and a homemade sign forbidding fights and gambling, it's not a fancypants lounge for the banking elite, either.

http://www.swedishamericanhall.com Located right upstairs from Cafe Du Nord is its auditoriumlike sister venue, the Swedish American Hall. Music usually ranges from country and folk to indie rock and beyond. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
http://www.thesycamoresf.com Most bars with crimson walls and bold, black-and-white-striped cushions encircling the interior aren't this mellow. Sycamore has a jukebox, a patio, and board games to go with that great sangria, an assortment of microbrews, and its menu of burgers and sandwiches. Try the B.L.T. sliders, the lamb burger, or the pork belly doughnuts with maple glaze. Read more about this San Francisco bar or club >>
