Wild Side West is a charming lesbian bar located in Bernal Heights that has been a local institution since 1962. The outdoor patio and lush garden are major attractions, providing a peaceful oasis with cozy seating areas perfect for different group sizes. Inside, the bar has a classic dive vibe with a decor full of beautiful nostalgia, including a TV dedicated to Xena or a funny b-movie with Bigfoot. The space upstairs also offers lots of charm. The bartenders serve excellent drinks like margaritas and whiskey sours, and the friendly staff offers top-class service. Visitors can enjoy the chill, eclectic atmosphere, surrounded by art and greenery, or explore nearby women-owned businesses recommended by the staff. The bar is known for its old-school LGBT hangout vibe, with plenty of TVs to watch sports like Niners and Warriors games, making it a beloved San Francisco legacy.
