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.

  • The Hot Spot

    The Hot Spot

    1414 Market San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-355-9800

    The Hot Spot fills this quasi-neighborhood's crucial need for an all-around dive. Is it in SOMA? Tenderloin? Hayes Valley? Civic Center? Yes and no to all the above. It exists along an awkward stretch of Market Street that's relatively sleepy and deserted, which is a selling point in and of itself. Besides the obvious - that it serves up alcohol nightly - other unique character traits are its stringent ID policy, the upstairs pool table, a wide variety of scratch-it lotto tickets for sale, decent beers on tap (e.g., Fat Tire, Widmer), standard liquor options, TVs, an internet jukebox, and beloved Thursday night karaoke from 8 p.m. to midnight.

  • Hotel Biron

    Hotel Biron

    45 Rose San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-703-0403

    http://www.hotelbiron.com Don't be misled: this bar has nothing to do with a hotel. It does, however, have everything to do with the fine art of wine and cheese. Calling it a wine bar doesn't quite capture the essence of this special Hayes Valley drinking locale. It's more like a backdoor speakeasy: the candle-lit, cave-like room hosts a humble bar in the back and just enough seats for a few parties of four. It's also dubbed an art gallery, which means they feature new shows every second Thursday. As far as drinking goes, they have dozens of wines by the glass or bottle, as well as an impressive list of bottled beers. Sake, Ritual Roasters coffee, and an assortment of cheeses are also available More >>

  • The King George Hotel

    The King George Hotel

    334 Mason San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-781-5050

    http://www.greystonehotels.com/kinggeorge/ Hotel bars are a breed all their own: the only locals are likely the ones pouring drinks and conversations often cover topics such as travel itineraries and weather comparisons. King George Hotel is no different. This England-themed bar exists primarily as a meeting place for guests on their way somewhere else. Nevertheless, the wall-to-wall carpeting, low ceilings, and brightly glowing wall sconces provide a simple space to enjoy a simple drink. Alcohol options are slim - beer and wine only - as are the operating hours: last call (if you could call it that) is usually around 9 p.m., though if bartender-chatting runs over, you might squeeze out another glass of wine before braving the Union Square mobs.

  • Ma

    Ma'velous

    1408 Market San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-626-8884

    http://www.maveloussf.com Ma'velous has a lot going on. It serves some of the hardest-to-find coffees (prepared six ways, no less), a tight menu of light local fare, a wide variety of wine, and a small selection of bottled beer. The glamorous space attracts a mix of coffee geeks, theater-/museumgoers, or Market Street loners. Wines range from local Sonoma vineyards to French and New Zealand imports. By-the-glass options start at $7 and bottle prices can exceed $40. The food menu changes, but is steered towards complimenting the wine, so expect small cheese plates, olive blends, and nuts.

    Mark's Bar

    1092 Post St. San Francisco, CA 94109
    415-829-3623

    A new cocktail spot in the former Lush Lounge space, Mark's Bar is suffused with a rich blue light -- so if you like tropical drinks, but don't want to leave the Polk Gulch neighborhood, this could be your blue heaven. More >>

  • Marlena

    Marlena's

    488 Hayes San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-864-6672

    http://www.marlenasbarsf.com As soon as you see the glass cases that flank the walls, you realize Marlena's is a place that loves it some kitsch: a rotating cast of figurines, which change with the season, is on display in the cases. During the summer, you might think you wandered into a Disney Store. In the fall and close to Halloween, Harry Potter collectibles take over. At Christmas, more than 1,200 Santas fill the bar. When it's time for the Mr. Hayes Valley leather competition, scepters, news clippings, tiaras, and other drag-queen memorabilia gussy up the place. Active in the community with their own softball and pool teams and having hosted Mr. Hayes Valley for 10 years, Marlena's is a straight-friendly neighborhood gay bar, a sass-free, mellow option for the veteran drag queen and down-to-earth Hayes Valley resident alike.

  • McTeague

    McTeague's Saloon

    1237 Polk San Francisco, CA 94109
    415-776-1237

    http://www.mcteagues.com Located down the block from Frank Norris Street, this Polk Gulch saloon is named for the protagonist of Norris' novel McTeague, a Victorian-era tale about a doomed San Francisco dentist - hence the decorative gold tooth hanging outside the door. That literary reference, however, is probably lost on the jocks who crowd into McTeague's on weekends to watch sports on the many flat-screen TVs. The bar interior is an admittedly confusing blend of Old West taproom (horse murals, wagon wheels) and Irish pub (dark wood timbers, fake stone walls, "football" team colors), but you can always slip into one of the high-backed booths, quaff some of the European ales and American microbrews on tap, and admire the paintings of the bar's patron saints: Charles Bukowski, Kurt Cobain, Richard Pryor, Joe Strummer, et al.

  • The Mint Karaoke Lounge

    The Mint Karaoke Lounge

    1942 Market San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-626-4726

    http://www.themint.net Top-notch singers - amateur and, it's suspected, otherwise - flex their intimidating karaoke skills here, but the lounge's dim lighting and cozy feel when packed (which is often) are sufficiently comforting to the rest of us, too. This is not the place for awkward first-timers, tin-eared mewlers, or your "funny" version of those old Journey anthems, however: The Mint takes its karaoke quite seriously. More >>

  • The Nite Cap

    The Nite Cap

    699 O'Farrell San Francisco, CA 94109
    415-931-9508

    Make all the jokes about janky Tenderloin crack dens you want, because the Nite Cap is the opposite of a crack den - it's more like a beer living room. This friendly and carpeted TL bar helps locals relax as if they were in their own home (except that, unlike a tiny Tenderloin studio, the Nite Cap's got both a pool table and jukebox). It's sunny during late afternoon happy hours, warmly lit at night, and has just enough wood to make it feel like a paneled rec room without going over the line into outright fanciness. Expect the juke to spit out indie pop, Top 40 hip-hop, and classic rock standbys, all for a mixed crowd settling in to enjoy drink prices (and pours) that are more than fair. More >>

  • Noble

    Noble

    600 Polk San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-525-3499

    http://www.noblesf.com Those looking for signs that the Tenderloin is "on the up" may have found another one: Noble, a VIP lounge dedicated to the club-going set. Valet, coat check, and velvet ropes are telling signs this bar is built for those willing to shell out the proper fees to enjoy its services. If you're in the bottle-service crowd, Noble has some selling points: you get your own bathroom, your own host, a lockable place for valuables, and your own table amidst the masses. Not into the VIP treatment? Then don't expect to sit down - all seating is for reservations only. The interior is cut from the typical classy-club cloth: DJ booth, modern furnishings, backlit bar, dark walls, and a generous dance floor. The crowds tend to show up later in the night, so don't expect company until after 11 p.m. on weekends. More >>

    The Orbit Room

    1900 Market San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-252-9525

    http://www.orbitroomcafe.com Its interior might be a stylistic mash-up of 1930s Art Deco with 1980s avant-chic, but the Orbit Room's famous drinks are 100 percent indebted to the 21st Century artisanal cocktail trend, with fresh, organic ingredients mixed into every glass. There's also a small menu of gourmet pizzas for sale in the evening until the "dough runs out" - although if you drink too many delicious $10 cocktails, your own dough may run out first. More >>

    Place Pigalle

    520 Hayes San Francisco, CA 94102
    415-552-2671

    http://www.placepigallesf.com This dive gives those in Hayes Valley who'd rather not drop rent on a bar tab a place to go. You wanna have a pizza delivered here? Sure! No problem. You wanna scream "Happy Birthday" to your 10 friends at the top of your lungs? Yes - it's totally acceptable here. 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 bar offers beer and wine only, but has a decent selection of both (e.g., Hoegaarden and Guinness on tap; pinot grigio by the glass). Don't get your heart set on anything specific, though, as many beers can be tapped out after busy nights. More >>

  • 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.
