This is a great pub. Met a bunch of friendly locals. It is located off Union St. and has a little patio that you can smoke and keep your drink with you. It does get crowded, but nothing more then the bars in Houston

My best friend was celebrating her birthday one year. Her sister decided to plan a get together with all the girls. This year it was different because of this spot. Its called the Beauty Bar. Basically you go there with friends and they have manicurists there. I believe you pay $10 for any drin…

La Barca is a Mexican Restaurant in the Marina District, an affluent neighborhood in San Francsico. It is a restaurant with a full bar, decent Mexican food, good service, but it is actually a meeting destination for the young and single-I would recommend you to try their margarita. After diner hou…

Mr. Smiths is a three level dance club/lounge where I went to celebrate my birthday. I picked it because I'd heard good things about it and it's right around the corner from Bossa Nova where we had dinner. We walked over after dinner and got there a little before 10pm and there was no cover. After t…

If you're ever in San Francisco on the third Friday of a month, you MUST go to a bar called the Rickshaw located near city hall and the opera house. Every third Friday, they host a party called Blow Up. All the locals from San Francisco dress in the most outrageous funky clothes you've ever seen w…

So around Union Square, I suggest NOT hitting up the clubs on Mason aka Ruby Skye and Slide unless you want to spend a ton of money and hang out with non locals. It's an interesting bridge and tunnel crowd in these joints!
If you're looking for a great dive bar (where you can smoke in!!) with a …

RioDomingo says:
I would only suggest the Matrix and the Marina area if you have scrills to spend and you like the bourgeois scene. Not me. There are definitely better places to kick it (that are nice/pseudo fancy!) if your on a budget.

Eric says:
We went to Circa right after eating dinner and drinking sake at Mas Sake next door. The layout of the bar is pretty spacious, with comfortable seating around a central bar area. We were there pretty early (10PM-11PM ish), so I'm not sure how crowded it gets later on.
They serve a drink called Fer…

Birthday party bash! My friend booked the place for the night right after Halloween. The atmosphere was good, clean and decent. The staff was very nice. There is a dancing floor, and an easy accessible bar. The overall feel of the bay was little rough, little trashy but the people who were there…

worldcitizen says:
Dolce is a relatively new club in North Beach. The owners call it an "upscale lounge" which I guess is true, especially considering its surroundings on Broadway. This is a fun place to go when you're in the mood to get dressed up. I don't think it has a sign but you'll probably notice a line in fron…

Broadway Street in North Beach is known for strip clubs, but amidst all of the adult entertainment, there are many fun and classy bars and clubs the area... Dragon Bar is one of them. It definitely has a Japanese theme going on- it's decorated with lots of red, paper lanterns, bamboo plants and Budd…

X_Drive says:
This small three level bar is not much to see from the street. Very non-obtrusive. Done entirely in green colors it has used every inch of available space. The main floor seems quite small, but also houses the restrooms, which include a one-way mirror (only in the men’s room). Don’t even ask …

worldcitizen says:
I'm not sure if this is a venue, or just a bar/club that puts on regular shows but it's an interesting place. It's on a busy narrow street in North Beach. It seems like it was a dive bar and someone decided one day to make a corner of a box-like room into a stage and put on concerts. It's small, dar…

worldcitizen says:
The Holy Cow is a dance club in the SoMa (South of Market) district of San Francisco. Its motto is, "Always a party, never a cover". It's open Thursday through Saturday nights from 9pm to 2am. It's a place to let loose and have fun, not a see and be seen type of place. Even people who typically don'…
