After wandering Haight street, we stopped into Toronado, knowing it had a good selection. My husband and I are both beer nerds and were happy to find some new brews to try. Prices were reasonable, $3-5 a pint for the most part. Good variety: sours, Belgians, stouts, ciders, and lots of IPAs. Our bartender was nice, though he seemed surprised... More

What a selection of beer!!! There were four of us and we all had a hard time choosing which beer to pick, there were so many great options! We enjoyed the vibe and luckily found a table right away, which (our friend who frequents this bar a lot said) is apparently lucky! Definitely stop here if you love beer!

Great locals bar with a fantastic beer list. Close to some good restaurants in the neighbourhood. Was recommended to us by some locals and we were not disappointed.

This place is everything a focused, beer centric var should be. Their list of brews was outstanding. Decor is tap handles and beer signs. They are cash only, and serve only beer (there was root beer on tap). The do not serve food, but the sausage place next door is outstanding and you can bring it into the Toronado. This... More

Awesome selection of beer. Great jukebox. Interesting collection of locals. As noted bartender can be rude. He was fine with me. However, a guy walked in and asked for a Blue Moon, bartender told him they don't carry it, guy asked for something similar bartender gave him a glass of water.

There was certainly large variety of beers but the poor service and bad manners of the bartender made it a very uncomfortable place to grab a pint. If you don't like tourists don't let them in or simply don't operate in a high tourism area.

Wandered in at about 11:30am on a Friday. Pretty empty except for the staff that was getting the place set up for the day. Took a seat at the bar and ordered a Pliny for $4. People seemed friendly. Cool place, love the dive feel. Parking wasn't too bad but wasn't easy either. Pliny was cold and refreshing. Been back... More

I love this place. Second time here, first was nearly a decade ago, and had my first sour beer-Cantillon. It's all about the beer here. First, I love good beer bars. But this place is great because there is no snobby pretense about it-it's just proud to be all about really good beer. There is a bit of subversive anti-establishment... More

No nonsense, no frills, proper drinking bar with 40 beers on tap to choose from. We aimed to pop in for 1 drink before heading for dinner but we ended up staying for the night as there was too much selection (IPAs especially) and plenty of chat with other drinkers. If you're a British ale/bitter drinker this place will convert... More
