Great spot with a bit of a punk rock vibe.Excellent pool tables mostly for sharks. They have cool shows, and play good music even when they dont. It can get a bit crowded just like any spot in the city but it's never too overwhelming. The staff are always friendly and cool. They pay attention to taking turns ordering but are also quick enough you often don't have to wait too long. Beer selection is a decent range, not sure I've tried much of anything else in my visits but have heard they have a good burger. It's one of the highlights of first moving to SF and remains a favorite even though I don't always make my way over there.

Great dive bar, decent food, solid beer selection, and immaculate vibes. Reminds me of Lucky 13 (RIP). It's pretty huge inside so it's a good place for larger groups. The portions with the food are very generous.

LoVE this bar! The patio is small and quaint despite the bar being big inside. The kitchen wasn't open but I heard great things about it! The service was great and the drinks were cheap!

Benders is a breed of dive bar that I will always hold a special place for in my heart. Cheap beers, no pretensions, and tater tots.

5 star dive bar. I love the overkill grill's tots, fried chicken sandwich, the frankenburger, fried tofu, and din din noods. My partner gets the burger every time. Service at OKG is great, and at the bar is everything you dream of in a dive bar. Outdoor seating in the back and on the sidewalk outside. Pizza night on tuesday is good, too.

Such a great dive bar + really good food! They have pretty diverse menu here and I love it. I got the noodles with Schnitzel and wow was it good! It was spicy but I liked the kick with the schnitzel. They also have burgers, sandwiches, tacos, salads and more! They bartenders and food team were also awesome and welcoming. Definitely will return!
Actually a perfectly exceptional dive bar. Excellent bartenders and a huge space. Didn't get to eat this

My favorite pub, and the only place I've ever been a regular at. Both the staff and the other regulars are good people.

Came in for a couple of drinks while cruising the neighborhood with our son (the best tour guide in SF!). We have been here before when visiting SF and the place does not disappoint. Viewing it from the outside, you are not actually anxious to enter, but this is a nice little dive bar with a terrific vibe. Great beer selection and their kitchen is actually a vendor that rents space. The food selection is pretty eclectic and one of our party thoroughly enjoyed their burger and tater tots. I liked the table tops with drivers licenses laminated for all to see. Classic Dive Bar and a place you must visit!

San Francisco used to have several bars like this. Bars that represented the culture of the neighborhood. Sadly, no more.....support these, "great vibe" , places while you still can.
