50 Best Bars near Corte Madera

“Not rating atmosphere since small take place, although front patio has couple tables with small view of SF Bay. This is our favorite Friday night pizza ! Call and order ahead and pick it up 30 min later on busy night. Always ready, always good. Great gluten free pizza, plain cheese and Hawaiian regulars are great!“

“It was our first time and we were definitely pleased. Everything was delicious!“

“Beautiful ambiance, attentive service, delicious food and drinks, and VERY memorable tiramisu. An all around excellent choice when dining out for a special occasion! Would highly recommend.“

“The seafood here is absolutely superb in both flavour and service, with exceptionally fresh ingredients. It ranks among the finest seafood I've ever tasted😃😋“

“Fab bar with a great range of booze and really friendly and helpful staff. Took the time to discuss UK vs USA measures and jiggers with me - fascinating!“

“Great location and food. Warm staff too.“

“Awesome Tiki Bar and a must visit if your into Tiki or themed bars“

“Had a luncheon @ Perbacco with my 9 coworkers and Manager to say “goodbye & farewell” to a retiring coworker and “welcome” to a new coworker. Started with a round of hors d'oeuvre’s. The thin sliced veal with a sauce and capers was delicious! The fried shrimp, veggies and olives/anchovies…also with a sauce was awesome as well. For my main, I had CRESTE DI GALLO - semolina pasta - wild mushroom ragu - spinach - ricotta salata. Our waiter was the best! I saved one of the sugar cookies from my deserts…Burnt Carmel Gelato. Mentioned it to our waiter and as we were leaving, I heard “Sir! Sir!” He brought me one of their meringue cookies to also share with my partner! I thought that was just awesome! Top notch food and customer service. We’ll be back!“

“Amazing staff. Lovely owners out of this work drinks and mock tails and the plants !!!!“

“Cool fun bar on the edge of nob Hill. Very large interior, but very ordinary. Music is good, locals are good, bartenders here are generally great. Mainly go here for big gatherings. But style here is not the main concern. There are some bar games.“

“Was trying to find a place to watch the NBA finals with all of the Word Cup action going on. Bars in North Beach were jam packed and miserable to try and enjoy the games. Standing room only. Found Tony Nik's and happened to see two open chairs at the bar. Bar tender was great. He mixed us up some drinks he hadn't heard of (Batanga) and they were good. Met some cool folks that came in for a few drinks. Don't believe they had any food in there as we saw no menus or anyone eating. Probably just a good ole watering hole. Would definitely return.“

“One65 was an amazing discovery on our trip to San Francisco. Having spent the first half of our life in Montréal, Québec, Canada where it was hard to find a bad restaurant, we were absolutely amazed by this Bistro which looks more like a high end dining experience. The menu online & the photos attracted us to this location but we were amazed by the well timed service, the crisp white tablecloths, the table setting and the pleasant and calm atmosphere. My choices of charcuterie platter was perfectly sized; the chicken & the pork rillettes where a wonderful surprise. My husband had an onion tart with the crust as perfect as they get & which I envied. He loved his halibut, moist and tender and I raved over my grilled half lobster, so tender that I found myself munching on the shell parts as well. My bread pudding was not of overwhelming size & perfectly flavored. Don chose the Affogato (scoop of vanilla gelato « drowned » with a shot of hot espresso). We wanted to go back today but they are closed on Sundays.?“

“What an intimate special dinning experience !“

“I must say i had high hopes but the meal was tasteless but my friends had too much salt. I wanted to like it. Wont return, wont recommend. ☹“

“Always fun place wonderful experience“

“Quirky little pub in a nice neighborhood. We stumbled upon it by chance and felt at home right away 👍😀 Unforgettable atmosphere and wonderful people, including the owner, staff and patrons! 🥳🍻👍😀“

“Amazing. Even one of our waiter was amazing. They forgot my sardines and they gave me mussels. Both were AMAZING. Drinks were amazing AND the staff were amazing as well. I dont usually leave reviews unless it is worth my time. Definitely a place to go“

“If I'm in San Francisco, it's a mandatory stop for me for an evening or late-night bite!“

“Good service friendly bartenders“

“😃🥰nice place for cocktails“

“Their Chandelier, the drink, not the light fixture, is amazing. I saw a liqueur i was unfamiliar with, Cynar, and the bartender told me all about it. Sebastian introduced me to two incredible cocktails made with it. It's rare to find a bartender that is so willing to share their love of their craft with an ignorant beer guy like me without being snobby. I can't wait to go here next time I'm in SF.“

“Wonderful Bar tender Alec and staff 😄. Loved it!“

“Relaxed and sophisticated feel with great ambiance and shazamable music. The bartender Dominic is great.“

“The place was very nice, we're visiting the area for a work conference and came here with our colleagues and partners after the training for the day was done. We felt a little out of place since most of the bars where we come from aren't as unique, they only have ingredients to make whats on the menu and can't make regular requested drinks. The bar tender gave us funny looks when we asked question, but did his best to explain things without making us feel dumb. I would come here again, but I feel I need to educate myself on fancy bar etiquette.“

“This was my 1st visit to San Francisco on my birthday! Hidive was welcoming, with great staff, good drinks, and a great bar top food menu! Started the day out there with margaritas, and stopped back in for some wings and a nightcap at the end of the day. It was great!“

“Nice place & the best bartenders!“

“This is a FABulous, family-owned and operated bar that absolutely does take credit cards, despite many reviews (connected to prior owners perhaps) saying they don't.

We were there for Thanksgiving and Sully was working non-stop behind the bar, his wife turned the pool table into a Thanksgiving day spread that could have competed with grandma's dinner!

All were invited to a California-style holiday, where you could bring the family you chose to spend the day with, while making new friends if you were interested in doing that. No shopping, cooking or cleaning up. And amazingly they didn't even charge visitors for the meal!

Everything was wonderful!

Another guest brought an addictive, spicy, NOLA influenced oyster stuffing that we must come back for next year! OMG

I don't know if there's any food normally, but we were very lucky to have discovered this bar, any day of the year!

And with Sully and his wife's decades in this business, they've created a very friendly, but also extremely professional , local neighborhood bar. They've also lined the walls with great, music-themed photos and Bay Area concert posters that add to the vibe!

And while their Irish coffee is as good as The Buena Vista, the price is much more palatable !“

“They bussed me to my first New York Giants game years ago. Plenty of good times in the bar too, including when they were open at 6am.

“Turn that rap shit off!” — Jake

Oh, and for the dork who was asked to leave for not tipping. That’s how bars work. A dollar a drink minimum no matter what. Even if you didn’t care for the service. If the service isn’t to your liking, pay the proper tip on the 1st round and leave the bar for your next round.“

“When you walk into a place and the first accent you hear at the bar is Irish, you know you're in a for a great evening.

Red Jack Saloon is just back from Pier 39, and it's the perfect relief to the cheap, tacky, colourful, overpriced clobber.

Great beer selection, super friendly vibe, and there's even an old school style pinball machine in the corner.

Top class.“

“Best pub in SF! Shout out to my favorite Canucks fan 🤙🍻“

“Had such a great experience at Kona's! 🌺 The vibe is fun and relaxed, making it a perfect spot to unwind after a long day. The drinks were refreshing and well-made, and the food hit the spot with great flavors. Service was friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Definitely a 5-star place I’d happily come back to!“

“Nice neighborhood bar. We used to come to The Bitter End during the weeknights back in the late 90's as my friends lived nearby. It is nice to see they are still busy. It is the type of restaurant/bar where you order at the bar. You fetch your own drinks and if you are eating, tell them which table you are at. The fish & chips $20 come with mushy peas. That is rare in San Francisco as most restaurants don't have mushy peas. The batter was light and the fish was perfectly cooked. My food came out fairly quickly as it was busy.“

“What a fantastic spot in the financial district! We were staying in town for a wedding, and this was such a great spot close to our hotel. Patrick (the owner) and his team were all a 10/10! Can’t wait to return.“

“I recently visited Leopold’s, and it offered a lively and satisfying introduction to Austrian and Central European cuisine in San Francisco. Located along Polk Street, the restaurant captures the spirit of a traditional Viennese beer hall while still maintaining the character of a neighborhood gathering place. The interior features warm wood tones and communal seating that create an energetic and social atmosphere, making it an enjoyable place for both casual dinners and group gatherings.

The menu highlights classic Austrian and Central European dishes that emphasize hearty ingredients and traditional preparation techniques. One of the standout items was the Wiener schnitzel, which is a signature dish of Austrian cuisine. The schnitzel was well executed, with a crisp, golden exterior and tender meat inside. The balance between the light breading and the flavor of the meat reflected strong technique and attention to detail.

Another highlight of the meal was the selection of sausages and traditional accompaniments. Austrian and German cuisines often rely on rich meats paired with sides such as sauerkraut, potatoes, and dumplings. These components worked together to create plates that were both satisfying and balanced, offering the comforting flavors typical of Central European cooking.

The restaurant also places strong emphasis on its beverage program. Austrian and German beers are a natural pairing with these dishes, and the selection offered a range of traditional styles that complemented the food well. The beer offerings contribute to the restaurant’s lively atmosphere and reinforce its beer hall identity.

Service during the visit was friendly and energetic, matching the lively character of the dining room. Staff members maintained a welcoming presence and were helpful in explaining menu items and beverage options. Despite the busy environment, the service felt well organized and attentive.

The overall atmosphere is one of Leopold’s greatest strengths. The restaurant successfully recreates the communal spirit of Central European beer halls while fitting naturally into San Francisco’s diverse dining culture. It feels like a place designed for sharing food, enjoying drinks, and spending time with friends.

Overall, Leopold’s delivers a flavorful and authentic Central European dining experience with well-prepared traditional dishes, a strong beer program, and a lively social environment.“

“great drinks and friendly bartender“

“awesome pub very friendly gutted we only found it last night highly recommended 👌“

“Really nice place. Highly recommended“

“Great bartenders, so welcoming& makes an awesome Old Fashion, makes you feel like a family“

“The atmosphere and bar itself was so much fun, the bar staff was incredibly friendly and kind. However, we paid for a private party and the DJ refused to take requests. I understand it is under his discretion to play what he wants, but he refused to play the songs the private party requested. I personally asked him to play a song and he told me he would, I never heard the song so I went back to him to ask about it playing and he told me it was going to be played soon. I never heard the song and when I asked him one more time, he said it’s no longer within your parties time frame and I can play whatever I want. I said that’s disappointing because I asked him to play the song during our private party event at this bar and he told me that’s not longer his problem and he was extremely rude. Very disappointing because this bar and the rest of the staff were amazing, but this DJ was rude and a real let down. Especially for how much money we spent for this bar for a birthday party. Do not suggest the bar hires this DJ again based on how he talked to customers.“

“Phenomenal experience! 🍷 🍽️ Wonderful food and cocktails! A must try while in the Presidio area!“

“Super fun place to go with friends and play ping pong, have some food and drinks. Great friendly atmosphere with lots of space.“

“The food was absolutely amazing ❤️😎💯💯💯“

“Not many bars out there make you feel so welcome that even their regulars welcome you with open arms. This is one of those spots! Incredible owners, amazing selection of beers, and fantastic cocktails made with love.“

“Nice friendly bar with good music vibes and food downtown. Came here during first Thursday and met with friends. It had undergone new ownership over the last 4 months. The owner was super friendly and inviting and told us the DJ from First Thursday was coming here to play after. We all got drinks, good cocktails, shots, lots of places to sit, nice bathrooms, spacious, and they even have a kitchen for food. The staff were all friendly and great music and space to dance indoors too. Will def be back and also such a great place to grab a drink! There’s street parking but it can get pretty busy out here.“

“Thank you, Le Petit Paris 75, for welcoming the Richard Crook trio to your delightful club. Always a friendly atmosphere, amazing cocktails, and awesome music line ups!“

“cool spot, passed by and thought it was a cafe but through the curtain opened up a lovely bar area that felt really intimate. Perfect for date night, if you continue walking there is an outdoor area that is perfect for brunch. Also really enjoyed my matcha einspanner- at first I was worried the matcha would be bitter because it’s unsweetened but the cream on top was so it strikes a great balance. The kinako powder on top was really the cherry on top bringing a nice balance and natural sweetness and nutty savoriness“

“awesome a must try, this is a hidden gem“

“International flavor...great patio and vibe. It's a landmark.“

“Tony is the fantastic bartender“

“Great Vibe! Great food, even vegan sausages! Marvelous beers 👍“
