50 Best Bars near Pacifica

“Great local home town bar with ping pong, darts, and pool, they've got great live music and fun events like karaoke and open mic. It's also on the bus route, and a great place to watch the game, with great food places nearby. The Long Board is a fun and entertaining place to go.“

“Fun surfer punk dive bar with cheap drinks and outdoor patio, complete with surfboards. Free popcorn and occasional handcrafted wood oven Italian pizza for sale outside. Surprisingly, many big names have played at this tiny beach venue, like The Mummies & Supersuckers! This place continues to create new memories for me each time!“

“This is the perfect place to get a great bite of food and a tasty beer. Relaxed environment with a friendly Seahorse / ocean vibe. Owner is welcoming and makes some incredible food. They have tv, music, fireplace and games. Check it out when you’re in the area! 10/10.“

“Been here a few times now and it's consistently very good. I wouldn't say great, but very good. The service is great! Warm and friendly.

Their pizza is very good too and they have FREE DELIVERY!!! (Don't forget to tip the delivery driver)“

“Bonito lugar con linda vista Asia el mar“

“Every drink is handled with care.“

“fantastic food and drinks with attentive staff and a lively atmosphere!!!“

“GREAT live music venue with awesome staff and patrons.“

“I threw a birthday party here and I was so pleased with how everything turned out. Debi, the owner is very professional and quick to respond to email and a pleasure to coordinate with. All of the staff were extremely friendly, from the bartenders, waitress and the doorman (who greeted all my guests!). The bar has a lot of seating and is very spacious with great decor. Food is also delicious, which my guests enjoyed. Highly recommend the quesasdillas. Thank you Debi and team for making my birthday so memorable. I recommend throwing your next event here.“

“I quit drinking before the judge ordered me to—how is that for initiative? Since that last call, no bar has captured my attention. Nor have I returned to any of the bars I enjoyed around here. I’m from the east coast—a pub near a rail station which draws a crowd free of pretense is proper nurture. Glen Park Station is welcoming, comfortable, fun, and built for a night done right.

There are non-alcoholic brews for those who abstain, shot-and-a-beer specials for $12.00, wine by the glass, and an indoor smoking lounge. A pinball machine which takes dollar bills. Darts. Superior bar stools. Table seating up front. A rear patio. No Apple Pay.The bar has neighboring businesses which serve food. One can find Vietnamese, Thai, and Mexican fare within a block. The bodega sits across from BART, on the same side of Diamond St. A pizza place is in proximity. This area has a low-key dominance about it. A great spot for socializing, a walkable pocket of the city wherein small businesses sling good eats, and you have the option to get hammered.

Parking is available in the public library lot after 6, 7, 8PM during the week. Street parking on the northbound lane of Bosworth between Arlington & Diamond is free in the evenings. I am not sure when the meters stop accepting payment-I pulled up at 7:30PM on a Monday.

To those behind the wheel—be advised—residential streets intersect as sharp turns become sudden hills. At all hours there are pedestrians, cyclists, and coyotes. SFPD often posts a patrol vehicle on Bosworth (south of the Arlington intersection) to eyeball the I-280 south on-ramp.“

“Fantastic food, friendly waitstaff and live music on the weekend. You won’t be disappointed! Great place to bring the whole family.“

“Best bar in the mission. Do you want a perfect margarita with impeccable service every time? No other establishment compares. Best bartender!! Amazing service. Free snacks. 10 out of 10 every time. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Me and my best friend came and were sold we had the best espresso martinis it was amazing service was top-tier shout out to Bryan because he was super nice super edgy super sweet I couldn’t have gotten any better we stayed longer than we should and longer than we could because it was just that amazing come again“

“Best Irish coffee in San Francisco and the three Sullivan s are the kindest nicest bartenders in the country 😎😎🍀🇺🇸“

“awesome. especially in the daylight!“

“A San Francisco legacy business; old school lgbt hangout with plenty of TVs to watch Niners and Warriors games. The decor is full of beautiful nostalgia; one of the TVs is dedicated to either Xena or some hilarious b-movie with Bigfoot. Excellent drinks (amazing margaritas and whiskey sours) and top class service. Love this place; A+++ ♥️“

“Good place. I'm always leery of bars with giant tvs, but they had cool classic rock on the sound system and the TVs were playing the game silently. So that was cool. I'd go back. Also they have some good beers on draft. The 805 is one of my favorites.“

“We had such a delightful time at Tintos! It was a wonderful surprise to find this Persian gem on Valencia Street. The menu is unique, exciting, and full of delicious flavors you don’t often come across in the neighborhood. Everything we tried was thoughtfully prepared and so tasty. Tintos really stands out as a special addition to Valencia Street, and we’re so glad we discovered it. Highly recommended!“

“Comfortable Like a well worn pair of shoes“

“I've been meaning to write this review for three years. That's when my wife and first started going to this fantastic bar in Sunnyside. It's always a fun, relaxed, and welcoming experience–for regulars and new faces alike. Good people, excellent beverages, very nice pool table. Shoutout to Rudy.“

“Absolutely amazing food . Came here on a trip from jersey and was recommended here . You won’t regret it .“

“This was home for me when I was living in San Francisco. Great people operate and tend to this bar and its community, which is hard to come by these days as the city continues to change. Make sure to go to any of their mainstay events, or a concert! My favorite events were Drink & Draw, KO Karaoke, and Cyberpunk Cinema. You should check it out.“

“Wonderfrul Dubliner bar....so glad it's here on 24th St. !!“

“Great old Skool bar. Bartender rocking on Spotify! good times! good drinks! Good peeps!“

“My new favorite dive bar in the city. A great blues band was playing the night we went and the atmosphere was fun and full of happiness. Excellent and creative cocktails (the Bee's Knees and the ginger cocktail are very much recommended). Service was exceptional, we'll be definitely coming back! Love this place, A+++

Parking: best to get here via ride share because parking is extremely difficult to find.“

“A little pricey, it was a bit challenging to order if you're not sitting at the bar and the service for the food is quite slow as well as cashing out the check. Food itself was good quality although not exceptional but the convenience of grabbing a bite to eat in a place with nice ambiance before a flight can't be beat.“

“best tacos 🌮🇮🇹🐍🦅 in San Francisco 🚩🏟📍49ers 🏈 maybe 🤷 😂24th street 💘“

“Great Vibe, amazing staff. Great Bartenders, Love this place.“

“We were on the hunt for a good happy hour spot on St. Patrick’s Day and landed here — and it was a mixed bag at first. Limited seating meant about a 10-minute wait, and the service started off a little rough. But once things got going, both the food and the service genuinely impressed us.“

“Cool divey spot with good beers, good cocktails, a few nice bartenders, a (nice, kinda expensive at $2/play) pool table, a photo booth, and a partnership with Front Porch across the street for food (or whatever you want to bring in). It occasionally has that "you're not a regular" off-putting feeling and single use bathrooms, but that's to be expected and doesn't take away from it. They also have some seats outside for when the weather's nicer. I usually stop in at the end of the night, but went recently earlier in the afternoon and they had a real sweet bartender who could make a great old fashion, and it was cool to see what it looks like inside with some sunlight, even though it means missing out on the spinning color lights they usually have running.“

“El Rio is such a classic SF spot. The backyard patio is honestly the best part — super spacious and perfect for dancing or just hanging with friends. The crowd was really inclusive and the energy felt like a big backyard party. Drinks were reasonably priced for SF too. Definitely a great place if you want a fun, lively night out.“

“Friendly crew. Verifying Covid vaccine status to enter. Clean bathrooms and nice outside space.“

“Irish is spoken here. Join in discussions, stay away from politics, mind yourself, and they always take care of you. Misbehaving will not be tolerated and they don’t care if your great grandparents ran a chinky takeaway in Cork City.“

“Lavay Smith sings there on Sunday evenings“

“The BAR on Dolores is my go-to place to watch NFL football. They have all the games and are happy to put on whichever game you request. The staff are so friendly and accommodating, the drinks are great, and there’s usually free food on Sundays. They are also dog-friendly. Touchdown!!“

“Great local bar. Been around since 1930's.“

“Beloved quiet local spot!“

“Great local and visitor’s vibe. Family experience as a local guest. Good billiards talent… I’m home from the hospital today, Dovre family.“

“No frills, no cliques, best cheaper drinks, 3 generations when I was there last.“

“Stopped by for a drink and realized there 49ers were playing in the playoffs. Drink was great, patrons friendly, and there was a nice spread of food for guests. I didn't eat anything, but my companion enjoyed a fully loaded hot dog and a bowl of chili. The bartender was a Rockstar! She manned that bar all by herself.“

“I like the pretty Burmese girl there. Hubba hubba. ���“

“Great local spot that makes you feel young again by carding you! Awesome bartenders and great cocktails!“

“Then to this place for years! A cool calm awesome fun place to be. When you think of your local dive bar this is the place that comes to mind! Please go in and have a beer or drink. The people who work there and the people that go there are all amazing people!“

“The soulful energy and the authentic community atmosphere of this historic neighborhood lounge make it an absolutely wonderful destination for anyone who wants to experience a real piece of San Francisco jazz culture in an unpretentious setting. I spent a long time enjoying the live music because the performers are incredibly talented and the intimate layout of the room creates a perfect connection between the band and the audience that you rarely find in more commercial venues. I really loved the warm hospitality of the staff and the regulars because everyone is so welcoming and it feels like a place where the history of the neighborhood is celebrated through every song and conversation throughout the evening. The space is maintained with a lot of character and I noticed that the drink prices are very reasonable which makes it a fantastic spot to relax and soak in the local vibe without the high costs typically found in the downtown districts. It is a must visit for any true music lover or traveler who appreciates a hidden gem that prioritizes soul and connection over modern trends or flashy decor. I also appreciated the sense of belonging that the venue fosters because you can tell that it is a cherished gathering place for local residents who have been supporting live jazz for many years. Even though it is located outside the main tourist areas the positive energy and the incredible talent on display make the journey to the Bayview district completely worthwhile for an evening of great sounds. I will definitely be returning here soon to support the local artists and enjoy the legendary hospitality because the combination of the historic charm and the vibrant music is truly a highlight of the city.“

“Super cute rooftop. Pizza one is one of the best pizza I've ever ate. The rooftop smash cocktail is now my favorite drink. I took a picture of the ingredients and made it at home ‍ that's how good it was. Definitely coming back. The customer service was outstanding. I will for sure come back with all my girls so we can day drink haha“

“Los jueves voy ahí d ves en cuando.“

“Stopped in to Newell's for a pre dinner drink. We just kind of stumbled on this place. How does one know where to get a good cocktail when you're an out of towner!?
Well let me tell you about Newell's.. The bartender was fabulous! She wasn't even sure what a certain drink was but she more than nailed it! It was right on! My Cadillac margarita was potent! I managed to wobble out of there to my next destination.. but barely! They do not serve food but our sweet bartender brought popcorn in order to save me embarrassment! It was a fun experience and I think I may have to return!“
