Best bar in SF, hands down. Great Spanish food, vermut on tap, unmatched vibes. Rafa is an amazing host and will teach the art of porrón drinking.

Cute spot, the vibes are great, and the vermouth selection is really nice, but do not hope to talk in here with your friends because the music volume is typically to the level of a club… even though is a bar 🤷♂️
Favorite bar in the city. The vibes, the service, the music! 10/10

This is definitely my favourite bar in San Francisco. Yummy spritzes, wide ranging + diverse wine selection (though the spritzes / aperitifs are my first choice). Also, great food selection for a bar - get a cheese board and explore the tapas for sure.

El Chato is a gem in the Mission!
A fun, familiar Spanish wine bar that instantly transports you to Madrid with its warm energy and authentic vibes. From the moment you walk in, it feels like a neighborhood bar you’d stumble upon in Spain — casual, inviting, and full of heart. The wine selection is on point, and the staff knows their stuff. Big shoutout to the atmosphere — it’s lively and the Spanish music and decor seal the deal. A perfect spot for a fun night out with friends
¡Salud!

Love seeing places like this in the neighborhood! Seeing their busy patio and great music 7 days a week really adds to the fun vibes in the mission. Good wine and eclectic art/music. Highly recommend

This place rules. Extensive list of vermouth, sherry, and wines with excellent recommendations. Vibey music, open kitchen, lgbtq friendly and accessible. Selena forever.

This is truly a unique wine bar in the Mission. Their specialty is Sherry, a type of fortified wine from the Jerez region of Spain—what Champagne is to Champagne, France, Sherry is to Jerez. I had the La Guita Manzanilla and the Fossi. I preferred the latter, as the former was a bit too bold for me. Their tapas are also excellent. I had the pan con tomate and the gazpacho, both delicious. This is a great spot for a first date, catching up with friends, or going solo for some people-watching—and maybe even meeting someone new.
