My friend and I were eating at Lao Table earlier in the night when a creepy man tried to follow us around the corner after leaving the restaurant. I took out my pepper spray and he called us bî*tches for not wanting to "do something" with him. We felt unsafe so we went into this bar to wait for him to back off. There was only ONE other person in the bar that night so we thought it would be ok if we just waited it out for a bit in there. The bartender was an older Asian woman who was knitting a hat. She asked us for our ID's and she made a big deal out of the fact that I was born in 2001. She looked at me as if it were fake then gave it back. She then said "what do you want" and I said I would need a minute. My friend said the same. I then called my partner to tell him our situation and how we were feeling unsafe due to the man outside the bar. My friend went into the bathroom and the woman came back about 5 minutes later while I was ON THE PHONE and said once again "are you gonna order?!" with this bitter tone. I pulled the phone away to tell her that I was going to wait for my friend and see if she even wanted anything. Once my friend came out of the bathroom she came up to us and said "order now!". My friend and I looked at her in shock as we were not bothering any customers, being loud, or being rude of any sorts. I told her my drink order to just make her happy but then she asked my friend what she wanted. My friend wasn't sure if she wanted anything and the lady cut her off saying "you both need to order or get out!". I paused and asked her "so she can't sit in here with me if she doesn't get a drink?" In which the woman said "yes this is a BUSINESS". My friend, who was now incredibly uncomfortable began to say "okay I guess I'll get-" but the woman then shouted "you know what GET OUT! OUT!" Never have I EVER had THAT rude of a customer service experience in my LIFE. DO NOT GO HERE.

Good for a quick drink! San Francisco sunrise cocktail was good! Bloody Mary was the worst I ever had. Staff is friendly too

The folks here _saved_ me. They showed me so much care. And served up some mean drinks. Can't wait to come back.

Love this place also has a pool table in the back. Only thing is that there is only one. There should be two but too small for two

I've only been here once with a few friends after work and I had a pretty good time. The bartenders were really cool and the vibe in this place was pretty chill. They have a great jukebox machine that you can even access from your phone. I definitely will be coming back.

This place has a great atmosphere been going to this bar for 10 years. They serve generous size shots and cold beers. Great bar close to moscone center.
Radu Ramulescu
One of the most diverse small bars with rotating bartenders , is worth it if you wanna meet maybe a new friend and be safe.
Paul Tran
Great place to watch European football.

Best downtown bar to catch a game or do a post work HH. Pool tables, free popcorn, well priced drinks.
The best bar I ever been in. I went there before leaving the city and now the first place I want to go when being back is there. Prices are really good and the barkeeper are very talkative and actually look after their guests. Met so many amazing people there. Place has an amazing vibe.

Wednesdays before 6. Go say hi to the wonderful bartender. It's my new go to after work and before my long bart ride.

This spot is a bit scary to enter. Very dark, old-school bar. But we wanted to catch a game and it was in our way. The bartender was really nice and helpful. Limited drink list and no food. But lots of TVs.
