One of the best bars in the area, the guys on the staff are friendly and the food service, despite being simple and fast, has good flavor and is delivered quickly, the salad that comes with the sandwiches is Delicious, the relaxed atmosphere during the day turns into something of a party after 8 at night, an ideal place whether you come to eat with friends or stop for a pre-drink.

So always a good time at HiTops! I am often there for burgers and scotch! All American boy, jock staff in tank tops and short shortz. Lot's of gay sports teams are sponsored by, and/or imbibe at HiTops. Can get a little clickish if you are not on a team, but any bar can get clickish in any town in the world. SUPER fun on big game/competitions, ie. Superbowl, World Series or recently the Presidential Debate. I assume that they will be hosting the VP Debate as well. Crowd tends to skew younger, but there are all sorts. Tends to skew white or Asian then Black or Latino. I always find the crowd pleasant and convivial, but there's always one or 2 that shouldn't be drinking anymore, lol. LOVE the door staff! Delbert and Jocelyn are the BEST!

Love Hi Tops! This is my first time going, and the experience was awesome! Bartender was so friendly, the drinks were well mixed and delicious, the food was incredible. Great menu, great portions, and very high quality. I ordered a simple breakfast burrito, my partner got a chicken sandwich. For an appetizer, we decided to split a half order of nachos, which came out on a platter and could have fed two people by itself. And that was only a HALF order! We were so full, we had to go back up to our hotel and take a nap. I absolutely cannot recommend this place more! Anytime I'm in the Castro in the future, I will be stopping by.

Decent fried chicken sandwich, a bit dry. SF has several better ones. Friendly staff. Bit pricey.

Great food, strong drinks and positive atmosphere best capture the essence of this bar. The burger and chicken sandwich were really tasty. I highly recommend the chicken sandwich.

This place is a hit or miss. Unfortunately for me it has been mostly a miss. The food is decent but the staff is rude. On busy days the bar is slow and some of the bartenders seem highly intoxicated and out of it. The music on Pride Sunday was simply awful. The non-stop repetitive techno beats were painfully bad and made the already questionable establishment feel and look even worse. Out of all the bars and clubs in the Castro this is one of the worst (besides Badlands).
Charges credit card processing fees even if you pay with cash. SCAM. Likely illegal too. What a shame.

Hi Tops is a fantastic neighborhood-friendly sports bar that I absolutely love. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, perfect for any occasion. The staff consistently impresses with their friendly smiles and excellent service. If you visit, I highly recommend trying the wings and garlic fries—they're simply outstanding.
