Expensive, only cash, not very clean. Not very good mixed and size cockteil drinks. AROUND 35 FOR 2 DRINKS without tips.

A very fun LGBTQIA+ bar with fun people and attentive staff. When I come home from the Bay Area to my house, I always stop off at the Merc and get a Black Superman. Great libations and fun atmosphere.

Horrible, unfriendly bartender and offputting “no puking” policy. You’re a bar and one apparently known for strong drinks. Get over
it. Treated terribly here.

Fun spot. Played pool undisturbed. $5 for two games and the bartender killed it with my spicy mango margarita. I’ll be back.

I actually really really enjoy this place but if I were you I wouldn't waste money on the jukebox cause if they don't like the choice of music you put on they will just change the song, it's like you're going to do that give me the money back I put in the jukebox. It really is disrespectful to people who frequent your establishment.

Went here for the first time last night with a few friends and one of the men called me the N word with a hard R I was obviously upset since it is an upsetting word to use towards anyone and the bouncer kicked me out and patted the man on the shoulder saying “it’s ok man go inside “ letting him back in and told me and my friends we were over reacting I was and still am sick that’s people think and allow this behavior just because they are “friends” it was his job to prevent this kind of thing and still took his friends side in a racist act
The place was cool however, bartenders should not do the most basic service and expect excessive tips. I understand that cheap employers pass the responsibility of paying for their workers onto the customers via tipping but come on dude please do your job and not whine and moan. You signed up for this. The short bald bartender did not let me even organize my money before demanding a tip. I hadn't even stepped away from the bar because I was sincerely organizing my money and then going to tip. Shame on you man have some respect. The drinks were watered down anyways.

Overall, it was a nice bar. It's one bartender who's rude. I didn't catch his name, but he's somewhat on the short side with some bold designer glasses who worked in the back. Drinks weren't all they strong, but that seemed to be the norm with all the local bars around here. I live in SF, and the drinks in the Castro are always strong. ?
