First time at this bar and was continuously berated by a very drunk man who made passive aggressive racist remarks and sexually aggressive comments. The same dude harassed the group of female friends I brought with me, to include everyone at the bar and no management came to toss this guy out. When I brought it to the attention of a server I was met with a blank stare in return. My advice? Don’t come to this place unless you pass as white.

I would not say go here at all unless you want to be uncomfortable. Deffo a locals joint! We had two bottles of bud light. We didn’t tip as the server was so rude. Clearly didn’t want to do her job. We asked a second sever for a drink, she opened the beer we put the cash down and the rude dreadful one picked our money up tossed it as us and told us to get out because we hadn’t tipped her. She yelled so loud my family back in the uk would hear her. What a disgraceful act.

Chelsea Place saved my live. In 1967 I got my draft notice to go and die in Vietnam. Sitting at the bar I met Tom Kenny waiting for his wife, Mary, to get off work. Tom was a captain in the Army Reserves at the Hospital in SF. Tom used his influence to get me into the reserves that were not used in Vietnam. I owe Tom and Chelsea for this just being there. Can I give you a picture of that time to hang on your wall?

Chelsea Place is a really fun bar and a great place to hang out if you want to meet some true locals who spend a lot of time here. Everyone I've met at the bar during the 5 or so times I've visited have been hilarious and fun to talk to, and the bartenders are always funny and make the whole bar super welcoming (shout-out to May, Skylar and all of the other bartenders I've met). Love this bar and don't think there is any other place more authentic and local feeling in the city than here. Also, they've really stepped up the number of beers they have on draft (it's still no beer garden, but it's no longer 3 taps like it was when I first visited).

I’m visiting from Southern California and came two days in a row. 100% because May, was not only a fantastic bartender and friendly host, but could play the cowbell and tambourine like nobody’s business. I fully endorse this bar.

Yea so I came here to have a few drinks before my 5:00 am flight. Started chatting it up with the locals and got pretty tipped up. I believe the bartenders name was sky, super cool and friendly. She needs to move to Texas. Anyway I ended up missing my flight cuz I had too much fun here. Best dive bar in SF hands down. I know dive bars, I’m from Wisconsin.
