Tell them what you like and they'll make you drink of your choice. Cucumber gimlet sooo refreshing and whiskey snap is just how it sounds like snap!

MyCityWay

This place is great for a mix of financial district suits and polo wearing techies. The staff know how to make countless drinks plus they will make you something from scratch if you ask nice!

Tony Xerri

Fantastic whiskey bar with great beer . Looks like a dive but the sophistication level is extremely high. Will definitely come back here.

Jenn

Great bartenders , great drinks, and super fun vibe! Can get a little crowded so get there early if you can!! It''s pricey , $30 for a shot of scotch - 18 year I think, but otherwise good ambiance.

Peter Park

Waaay too loud . What's up@with most of the bars in SF? They pump up music all the time. Still looking for a real chill and intimate setting , like Angel's Share in NYC.

Ray Hartjen

Great SoMA location for that happy hour drink . Not the best cocktail , so stick with the beer , straight on rocks, and conversation.

Zachary Taylor

Best happy hour , amazing cocktails , ridiculous whiskey selection ! How can you not fall in love?

jenny rock

Good cocktails , but no cocktail menu . Order off menu , name some cocktails you like and they'll pick something good.

Bikash Mishra

Great happy hour spot . Good selection of beers and stuff cocktails . Try the old fashioned .

Kevin Burg

There's a lot of whiskey here. Ask the friendly bartenders about all the whiskey .

Jinnie L

I like the atmosphere, fun place ;) I had basil gimlet (refreshing) & gin dominatrix (yummy)

Jennifer Tharp

Mark (bald guy with glasses) is easily the best bartender in the city . Tell him what you like and he'll make you a new variant that will blow. Your. Mind.

Zachary Reiss-Davis

Let the bartenders pick your drink, just naming a spirit and a flavor profile; it'll end up great.

Jymmi James

Great deals on wine and fancy stuff considering how fancy this place is.

Melissa Dagdagan

I come here for the whiskey , basil gimlet , and a good time with friends.

Andre S

Pretty chill and good amount of alcohol . Perfect for after work

Claire Lee

Ask for Marc to make you a special cocktail - he practices art with liquor

Andy Jiang

Underrated spot. Exposed brick and Christmas lights . Post-work vibes.

Tania Rahman

Must try the Basil Gimlet ! It's not on the menu so ask the bartender .

Anna Jacobi

Wonderful gov, brandy and violet drink. Definitely coming back here.

Ryan Ota

Very good whiskey selection with decent prices

Gina Leung

Sometimes the piano player here will be amazing. Tonight he's already played Lady GaGa and Kanye West on the keyboard.

Lindsay

Ask AJ for any type of gimlet !! It'll rock your socks!!! Nom nom

Shirley Liu

Blueberry gimlet is great , or ask the bartender to concoct something for you!

Joey Combs

Don't come here during HH, it's way too crowded . That being said, they make a great whiskey sour . Order one.

Niketa Malhotra

Really nice bartenders .. Great place for a chat and strategy :)

Phillip Tran

Great cocktails ! Basil gimlet rocks!

c0uP

Decent alcohol selection. Unfortunately, it looks like a rundown, ripoff version of House of Shields. Cracked walls, bad acoustics , and that's with a half-empty bar .

Jason Damas

Might be the best gin selection in the city

Anish Bhatt

Ask for their award-winning Starry Night

Shirley Tsang

Creative and delicious cocktails !

Liesl Koehler

Basil gimlet with few spirits gin . Amazing!

Rushabh Doshi

Ask for "blood and sand". My goto cocktail at this place.

the bartenders here actually earn the title of 'mixologist '. they work some serious magic.

Ivan Erceg

Rye whiskey , scotch , bourbon

Have the St Peter's cream stout ! A full English pint of dark beer heaven :)
