Make-Out Room

Chill spot if you're into earlier evening live band shows. There's usually a $5-$10 cover. No amazing beers on tap but bartenders are friendly .

One of the best small venues to see local and bigger acts at. Keep them on your radar.

Funkiest of funky venues, the crowd here regardless of the act on stage is unfailingly young, adorable, and friendlier than they have to be. Even if it's busy at the bar , there are so many great beer Read more

Bring your own air conditioner and don't forget your deodorant/ antiperspirant prior to dancing on the hot floor to tunes you don't yet know in Spanish

Coolest bar in the Bay Area. Great music , cool crowd. Love it.

Cool spot for live music . Decor is like an adult prom. Cash only .

Truly, it is weird, and cash only is annoying, but it just has this vibe that I find totally unpretentious and cool.

Fridays are salsa nights, which are fun with a large group of friends. But cover--what is this nonsense, SF? Also, people aren't as creepy as they seem?

Great spot for live music . Small, intimate venue . They usually have a cover.

Make sure you check the music for the night before you come cause you don't want to get stuck on aaron night when you thought house (2 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Great venue for salsa dancing and concerts , albeit an embarrassing name

I've had some of the best times here. Making out is encouraged, dancing is required.

Saturday nights music is great except the transitions from song to song is very amateur. Which is frustrating bcus the song selection is pretty damn good. I hope the DJ's read this.

Karaoke on Monday is AMAZING! (Dare I say better than The Mint ... Much as I love that place!)

Seaweed Sway showcase is worth checking out, especially the interim performances by the Absurdists. This time, the classic Scooby episode "to switch a witch".

the neighborhood’s venue of choice for an indie rock or soul dance party - think Danny's.

This cool neighborhood bar hosts a great show called "Writers With Drinks " once a month featuring bestselling authors!

Order a hot toddy on a cold day. Appreciate the clove-studded lemon . Leave a big tip.

charlie jane anders's "writers with drinks " is an awesome literary/spoken word event - takes place here the first saturday of every month.

Nice place. Great decorations on the ceiling. Friend found a jack daniels shirt in the men's bathroom .

Karaoke is awesome here. DJ purple styles.

Best (and strongest) margaritas in the city .

Don't miss the "Mortified " nights, when adults share adolescent journal entries, poems, lyrics, home movies and other archives of extreme embarrassment.More in the Mission: Read more

Great Latin music dj on a Saturday night in August! Not too crowded either, yay!

Writers with drinks , first Saturday of the month, is awesome.

Lots of good performances and readings here, and then dancing late at night.

grab a shit of Jack Daniels Honey and pour bit into your draft PBR .

Jeremy is a great host, particularly when he's performing a wacky improv skit - it's different every Seaweed Sway.

Great music ! $4 pints, booths , high ceilings and a great mellow vibe

Venue with great decor and vibe y'all.

The San Francisco Mixtape Society (open to the public) meets here quarterly to exchange handmade comps. Read more

Make out with someone. Everyone is thinking about it but only readers of this tip are doing it.

Talent nights and live concerts .

Don't drink the beer . Cocktails only.

Make out Monday is a lot of fun!

Love it, the bkgrd music is like they pulled from my iPod. Gr8 decor, music , vibe.

Good crowd. Lots of dancing .

Great place for a funky dance hour

Best martini I've had in a long time. Bring your ear plugs.

this is where the iphone 4 prototype was lost!

It’s weird and I like it

The bartenders here are rude if you ever consider giving anything but cash... Just come prepared!
