1
Bubble Lounge
Right in historic Jackson Square, this very upscale, multi-roomed champagne bar features over 300 bubblies on its list. The main room is very beautiful, in a traditionally clubby sort of way.
2
Bohemia Bar and Bistro
This enormous, bi-level joint has poll tables, ping-pong, a small dance floor, and a chill-out room upstairs with skylights and windows overlooking the street. The music can vary widely, depending on the DJ, from house to top-40, or you can put your money in on of the jukeboxes.
1624 California St between Polk & Van Ness
3
Vesuvio
This landmark watering hole was a major Beat and hippie gathering place and still carries on the alternative tradition as best it can amid the stained-glass, psychedelic décor. Check out the literary and other memorabilia on the walls and sit on the narrow balcony, from which you can survey the action below.
255 Columbus Ave
4
22o2 Oxygen Bar
Patrons plug into clear plastic tubes, and then breathe oxygen in through the nose and out through the mouth, available in six refreshing aromatherapy flavors. Also features are six herb and juice cocktails served over ice. You feel great and look even better.
795 Valencia St at 19th
5
Mecca
This dolled up industrial space attracts some of the Castro’s prettiest men, including the occasional drag queen, around the glowing circular bar, with red velvet and chiffon drapery. It’s also a supper club featuring New American cuisine.
2029 Market St
6
Edinburgh Castle Pub
A hugely happening place incorporating live indie music, a fish ‘n’ chips delivery service, as well as darts, pool, and general carousing in the Scottish manner.
950 Geary St.
7
Hush Hush Lounge
Refined funk best describes this Mission bar that turns into a DJ venue late at night. The dance floor is all but non-existent, but regulars love its sense of being a secret hiding place. Try to snag a booth for the full effect. The eclectic mix of music runs to soul, country, jazz, cabaret, lounge, blues, funk, and disco.
496 14th St
8
Ruby Skye
A Victoria playhouse has been restored in lavish high-tech coolness, incorporating a captivating blend of Art Nouveau and Dali-esque Modernism. And where else can you see trapeze acts on a Saturday night or puff cigars in a private billiards room? If you want to fit in, sure to wear designer gear.
420 Mason St
9
Destino
Relax and experience the passion of flamenco and the intensity of tango every evening. Perilously close to being under a freeway overpass, it nevertheless exudes a special energy. South American food, too.
1815 Market St
10
Lefty O'Doul's
Opened in 1958 by the local baseball legend, this Downtown landmark is a cafeteria-style sports bar with live piano music. Good fun when the old crowd starts on their renditions of even older show tunes.
333 Geary St at Powell
