It's a great place to catch the Super Bowl while snacking on some solid wings . Dine in, pick up, or order out, no matter what you choose Hi Tops does buffalo wings right. Read more

The only way you’ll be a loser at trivia night is if you leave without getting the wings , which may be some of the best in SF. Tables fill up quick on trivia night , so get there early. Tuesdays, 8pm. Read more

Hi Tops consulting chef Jamie Lauren's darkly fried version of the fried chicken sandwich with sweet slaw and a soft, eggy brioche bun is a particularly good one. Goes great with a pitcher of beer . Read more

Zack Thompson

The food is awesome. The staff has an upbeat attitude which is always refreshing. Clean and well kept. Last but not lease sport it's the first of its kind in San Francisco.

Andrew Cerda

Order yourself a corn dog and pretzel . They're equally awesome and your tongue will thank me for giving you something to eat their amazing mustard with.

Head to the gay sports bar Hi Tops after work today for a beer or two. While you're there be sure to order the nachos with sweet and tangy pulled pork . They're some of the best nachos in SF. Read more

Order food separately at the back bar . Ask for the vegetarian hot dog (a good veggie option not listed in the menu on the board). Enjoy the game and have fun!

SFist

The Castro hangout features a Bloody with bacon-infused vodka , and a bacon garnish , which goes quite nicely with a tray of their Killer Nachos , should you be that hungover any given Sunday. Read more

SFist

The chips here are good, the pulled pork is sweet and tangy , but these nachos are also monstrous enough for a meal for three people even without any meat on them, with generous amounts of toppings. Read more

The only place in town where LGBT basketball fans can watch the Warriors while also possibly finding a new love interest, Hi Tops remains one of the more popular spots in the Castro. Read more

Scottie Milagro

Cheap beer , great vibe, tons of energy. Both staff and clientele are so nice. Ahi tuna burger is my favorite thing on the menu.

Justin Barker

Slick neighborhood queer bar with surprisingly good food, great drink selection, and cute staff . Very chill for all of the pretty.

Monday has 25-cent wings , Tuesday is trivia and Thursday is gym night, when people dress in wrestling gear and free shots are handed out. Read more

Monday nights, sports bar Hi Tops (2247 Market St.) offers a basket of eight wings for $5. The “buffalo wild wings ” are fairly spicy , so be sure to dip ‘em in something cool.

Justin D

Watch the game with beer and awesome nachos . Seriously, the nachos are great.

Good drinks, good music , and a generally mellow vibe bring people back, as do special theme nights like trivia on Tuesdays, bingo on Wednesdays, and "Gym Class " on Thursdays. Read more

Zach Maier

Like spicy drinks ? Get the "Will the Thrill," it damn near changed my life. Also... The have a SHUFFLEBOARD table. Gay Castro sports bars ftw!

Steven Yan

Panda Colada was literally like a piña colada , very sweet. Big Unit was much more subdued for my tastes. If you're into playing shuffleboard , they have one of those. Don't think NYC bars have one.

Sean Howell

Great atmosphere to meet friends. Quality food with plenty of drink options. An excellent place in Castro

Peter Chiu

Bloody Nary's are the best. Food is pretty awesome too. Best place to watch sports

Jeff Beck

Excellent bar food , great Bloody Mary’s, good game crowds!

Rachel Roth

Open for lunch ! Hot pretzels , tasty kale salad , and great drinks!

Lisa Raphael

My favorite sports bar in the city - get the nachos and the kale ceasar with a michelada ????????

Jerrold

Possibly the best cheese burger in SF- awesome! Not over cooked, great service

Ken Baldwin

"JOCKS" hang out here.. my friends opened this bar - I've never been a fan of it. Its total butch femme realness in there.. Everyone pretends to watch sports . lol

Andrew Bristow

Good trivia on Tuesday nights, good food, and half the staff is good.

Paul Gauger

Great bar with selection of cocktails and food too. Friendly crowd with a good atmosphere.

Benjamin Kozlowski

Great place. Think Nellies not Gym Bar or Boxers - this place is a real sports bar that gay folks frequent.

Carly S

Great bar with even better food. Utilize the 3 'drink stations' at the bar for super quick service !

Spoon Carvalho

The burgers here are by far the best in the city . Especially when it's hand deliver by the hot jock staff !! Now time for more beer !

Chris H.

Go for trivia night on Tuesday! Tables fill up quickly so get there before 7 to get a spot.

David Adams

Are you a gay bro wanting to hang out with and ogle other douchey gay bros? This is your place. Middling cocktails , but the pub grub is pretty good.

Rob Atkinson

Trivia on Tuesdays is packed but fun. Get there at least an hour early to get a table

Chris ???? Makarsky

Wednesday night bingo is the best, and there's a pretty good chance you'll win a free shot before the night is over

ºDamian White º

Nice local vibe here. With nicely designed walls and sun coming in the right places. :)

Lauren Bernal

Lots of beers on draft . And shuffle board ! Very fun environment.

nancy t.

Wings upon wings upon wings . It can get messy. But so worth it.

Sid Boz

"Will the thrill" is a delish, spicy drink . Spicier than you'd think, which is refreshing (and hot!).

Margot Seeto

Best nachos in the city . No joke!

Auburn Santo

Try Will the Thrill! Muddled jalapeños :) Let the ice melt if you find it on the spicy side.

Matthew Hammon

The place is great although the bathrooms are unusually busy and the line up takes a while. Very odd.

Steve Miller

The spicy slaw on the fried chicken sandwich was amazing!

Toni Gutierrez

Great place to grab a bite to eat and watch your favorite sport !
