Amber
718 14th St. (at Church)
San Francisco, CA 94114
415-626-7827
The inviting, down-to-earth vibe of this place attracts local restaurant/bar workers to unofficial '80s, honky-tonk, and punk rock nights. Enjoy a Sidecar or an Amber Cocktail in the lounge-y barroom, which -- shhh! -- is one of the few spots in the city where you can still smoke.
- Best Of 2008: Best Smoking Bar
- Hours: Monday-Friday 6PM-2AM; Saturday/Sunday 7PM-2AM.
