    It's a chill bar with good drinks and cool staff! It's got a locals vibe and the cocktails are imaginative and well made. Shout out to Esau! It's right in the heart of downtown too making it super accessible.

    Cute craft cocktail & whiskey bar nears the outskirts of the TL. Very creative and innovative cocktail drinks . Happy hour 10% drinks before 8pm. Great bartender service, would come back again.

    Endless love for Rye, Eric the bartender, & Weiner Wednesdays for being there for me when my friends & I first moved into the city. I discovered Rye on FunCheapSF when they were promoting their Weiner Wednesdays, where you get a free hotdog with every Tequila drink purchase. We loved how empty it was on Wednesday nights and would come every Wednesday for MONTHS. They are known for their wide whiskey selection and I'm not much of a whiskey person but their cocktails are amazing & there is definitely something for everyone. I personally am a big fan of the Khaosan Tea (a Thai tea + vanilla Bourbon drink) and Bees & Toes (an herby, honey lavendar gin drink). I also became a big, big fan of Japanese whiskey because of Rye! Super elegant and dark space with a good amount of indoor seating + a gated outdoor area. Sometimes they project a movie on the wall or a DJ plays in the back. During Halloween & Christmas, they will decorate the place and bartenders wear cute gimmicky costumes. Their menu also changed often for the holidays. A very dog-friendly space! Location is a little rough at night, luckily very accessible to me via the 38/38R bus line. When coming via car, we haven't had trouble finding parking but definitely not the safest area to leave your car. Haven't run into any issues or dangerous situations at all though. Definitely recommend!

    I've been living in this area for about two years now. I would walk up and down these streets just gazing through as I walk pass by. I don't really go to bars around this area but one day I decided to just pop in after a long day of work and I'm so happy I did! The way the outside looks, it looks like this bar is closed but it is very much open. It's a cute little bar that didn't have much going on when I was in. I usually get the same stuff everywhere I go to compare who has what that tastes better and where. The service is pretty up to speed as there's only two bartenders, they have you take a seat and go to your table to take your order unlike your usual bar where you have to order your drink then sit down. I thought that was pretty neat, you don't see that much in SF. My first choice of drink was THE espresso martini. I say THE because that's literally it. I read on the menu that the coffee was sourced from Scullery (coffee shop across the street). This espresso martini is the #1 best one I've had in SF and I've been here for about 3 years now. Not sure how I've never been here to try this drink but it's mind blowing. It's the perfect mix of espresso, booze, and they even add TOASTED COCONUT CHIPS to the drink! It tastes just like candy. I can't talk about it too much because words are just words but I would encourage anyone reading this, to head on over and try it for yourself. I enjoyed this drink so much I got 3 of them and didn't think to try any other specialty cocktails. But that's for next time. With tax it was about $15 each which is not bad considering I've paid about $20 elsewhere. The bartenders were so sweet, the music is a vibe, and drinks are freaking amazing. I know I will be back because I live around the corner. Wish I can have an espresso martini before my work day lol, that would really give me a kick to start my day! I recommend trying this drink first!
