If you are someone worried about going somewhere away from the main tourist areas, don't come here. If you are looking for something different, this might be worth a try. We were visiting SF from Sunday to Tuesday before taking a cruise, wanted to visit the main tourist sites, but also wanted to mix with the locals. We like Blue Grass Music and found out about this place. We were staying in Central SF but needed to catch a bus to visit this bar which was not large. Don't expect meals to be served, you will be disappointed. Don't expect plentiful comfortable seats, you will be disappointed. You can, however, move empty chairs about and enjoy a good selection of beers. Monday was Blue Grass night but other nights have other themes. We attended the early evening 'jamming' session which had 11 musicians participating. We would have liked to have tried the 'professional' show later in the evening but didn't have the time. Maybe during our next visit. If on like something different, give it a try.…

So the place is hip. It's cool. The staff is friendly. There is very little seating. It's a closer to a hole in the wall. The drinks are okay. I did not see any cocktails, mostly straight drinks.

You go there to listen to live music and have a drink (or drinks). Before 9 pm, the entry is free and the artist(s) on stage are well known by their mother. After 9, more serious stuff starts, with experienced musicians (grass, country, etc, depending of the day). The room is not very large, and becomes quickly packed and noisy. If the music is good, it is then pleasant to spend an hour there before or after dinning in the surroudings. One remark : in the drinks list (and invoice) it is annonced "Champagne" but they serve Proseco, and that is wrong (not to say worse). Even Proseco cpy does not dare to present its product as "Champagne".…

There was a different band every 30 min and the styles were completely different. Entrance was free and also there beers on draught were changing.

We visited here on a Saturday night. They advertised a comedian and a band. The comedian didn't turn up (although no explanation was given) and the band, when they eventually decided to take to the stage, were unbelievably bad. Locals in the crowd were apologising to us for such a bad experience! The drinks were expensive ($10 for a glass of wine) and they didn't have a great selection to choose from. My advice is not to waste your time visiting here; there's several other bars close by that probably know how to put on a decent night. …
