Casual bar tucked away in between Soma office buildings. Chill vibe, to get some drinks and snacks

Don't let this place fools you - even it's successfully trying mimicking dive bars and belongs to same "Pour Guys" who owns the best SF dive bar (in my humble opinion) "Tempest", it's completely other atmosphere inside, even with almost the same type of music.
Clientele consists of modern age yuppies, venture capitalists and other tech bro's with their perfect haircuts (sorry, but that stands out somehow). Even the guy who sits next to you, wearing his snapback or trucker hat (!) backwards, funny/ironic t-shirt or hoodie is not an average blue collar - but, hey, he sure can pass some investment advices on next hotter than hot IPO's listings if you, somehow, brake through his mental blocks. Well, I've not even tried, so leaving that to you. But don't forget - they're men (and women) who live in that surrounding high castles on Main St, Millennium Tower and all in-between in Financial District.
Well, enough with my alcohol talking, because rotational drafts here is at the same high standards with "Tempest", especially "Louie's" still carries that 17.6% Imperial Stout what "Tempest" lost right during the pandemic. Burger was really tasty for it's bare minimum of $16. But, boy, be prepared for other type of experience, artisanal cocktails and hard liquors, and $100+ tabs all around you from not-your-average not-dive-bar. "Tempest" is still the best, "Louie's" is different, better or worse - that's for you to decide. And to explore.

Louie's bar is a gem!! So happy to have found this little spot. The pasole is to die for. They have burgers, tacos and appetizers that are equally as amazing. Forgot to mention their extensive bar. Spicy margarita is my fav. They even serve Pliny the Elder.

Can't wait until my next visit for sure!!
