Craig Lane is THE cocktail creating genius. Sit at the bar, tell him what you like and he’ll whip up something magical. For the less adventurous, the Whiz Bang and the Brown Derby were both excellent

It is almost always possible to get a table here last minute, even if you are a larger group. Cocktails are great, and service is nice. Pro-tip: Great brunch on Sundays 10am-2pm (yes it is back!).

You might not find a better bar program in the city. Beautiful Sea Ranch in the City vibe. Good sand dabs when we were there. Love the tall strong rum drinks. Top notch whiskey sour.

It's called a Kentucky Buck and it's not on the menu. It's got bourbon and ginger and it's boozy and refreshing at the same time. Now go talk to your bartender...

Get a Jack Rabbit, apple brandy with orange, lemon, maple syrup and bitters or the Whiz Bang with Scotch, vermouth, grenadine, absinthe, bitters. They have heated lamps so grab a seat outside. Read more

The restaurant and bar is known for using local, seasonable, and sustainable ingredients in both the food from chef Melissa Reitz and cocktails created by Thad Vogler and Eric Johnson. Read more

Incredible cocktail selection and friendly bartenders make this a great spot to go before a show at Slim's. Try the house old fashioned. It's barrel aged!
Vinny La BarberaDecember 23, 2016
Great bar with even better cocktails. The bartenders are really creative and love to revive old drinks into new exciting ones. Sit at the bar and learn something.

Tuesday to Saturday from 5 to 6 p.m., and all day Sunday, Bar Agricole offers up $2.50 oysters as well as some delicious $2.50 sausages with house-made mustard and sauerkraut. Read more

With more than a frisson of hipster in the air, Bar Agricole explores this lesser-known rum style with a swagger. Other delectable cocktails are served, as is small-plate, big-ticket food.
Anthony AdamsAugust 20, 2016
Amazing cocktail program: try the black tea sour - taste like a lemon meringue pie. And the house old fashioned is one of the best drinks I've had in the city.

The "California" version  of Holland gin comes from St. George Spirits and stars in its Rye Gin  Old Fashioned. For the cherry effect, Lane swears by the Leopold Bros.  Maraschino from Colorado.
Tyler BrockAugust 20, 2015
Amazing food. Sit outside on a nice night. Fish special seems like a scam: "push the fish, it's going bad" but it was not! Delicious!

Really great American cuisine. Had the brisket which was very soft. Also really liked the olives and the green tea.
AFAR MediaAugust 12, 2014
The architecture is urban & there is an agricultural emphasis on the food. The restaurant will satisfy your eyes & conscience as well as your belly. Read more

$15 cocktails? Steep. Huge space, nice bartenders, and not crowded. Same owners as Trou Nomad, so it's fancy food and expensive alcohol. price is all inclusive though, so it almost evens out.
Liz McLean KnightJune 28, 2015
The cocktails and bartenders are outstanding, and it's a gorgeous minimal modernly designed spot with the front half an outdoor wooden patio. Heart.

Bar Agricole embodies the West Coast drinks style—seasonal, simple and ingredient-driven. Herbs and farmer’s market fruit are usual suspects, as are housemade tinctures. Read more

Worldwide cocktail guru Thad Vogler, has changed the game. Come here to kick off a night out, or stay all night, its up to you. http://barchick.com/find-a-bar/san-francisco/bar-agricole

I enjoy the decor and atmosphere. Cocktails are delicious and appetizers are tasty, but main dishes are so salty! Tried the monkey face eel and lamb chops- both were hella salty! Menu changes nightly.
Caro SchieferMay 8, 2017
Cocktails were very good. Food was ok. Burger is only the bun and very good meat with mustard - that's it. They are supplied by local dealers. Cool atmosphere and also includes outside seating.
Shayan SanyalAugust 27, 2015
Come here for the cocktails. The food is ok, but don't believe them when they say family size portions. The wine is expensive. Stick to the cocktails. The tequila fix is fantastic and spicy.

Local chef Traci des Jardins picks Bar Agricole as one of her favorite cocktail places in SF. Co-owner Thad Vogler told us "start with a Ti Punch and an Old Fashioned with some of our charcuterie."

Super tasty cocktails, great small plates, modern interior. I really love their version of spaghetti carbonara!

Come here in the early evening to sit on the patio and enjoy a Fruit Cup (gin with chinato and ginger) with a plate of fried romano beans and salt-cod fritters: Read more

Love getting brunch here on a sunny day and sitting in the outdoor patio. They take reservations for brunch too!
Aaron BerthMarch 31, 2014
Food and cocktails were superb. Service was friendly but cool and the meal felt very rushed. I wanted to enjoy the evening but items were coming out minutes after ordering.

Don't miss the amazing heated concrete lounge from Galanter & Jones on the patio. It's like sitting in a hot tub except you stay dry.
John Melas-KyriaziJanuary 13, 2016
Back at Bar Agricole w/ @christinaphili5 for the first time since our rehearsal dinner. Ah, the memories.
Frances JamesJune 7, 2015
Delicate plates, solid cocktails. Modern ambiance, one of the best patios in the city. Not cheap.
Marina K.July 25, 2014
$2 oysters all day Sunday are great! Also great fresh from scratch cocktails on the open air patio made for a great evening.

The culmination of the hyper-fresh, hyper-local cocktail movement. They grow some of their garnishes on site & contract with local farms & artisanal spirits makers. Expect awesome. Read more

The large brick-floored, wood-walled, and plant-filled area is one of the prettiest SF spots to sit outside and drink on a sunny day. Read more

Most beautiful brunch in the garden here. The French toast was epic, huge portion and taste to perfection.
Enda GAugust 19, 2011
Beautiful space, excellent service. Food is imaginative but all four of our party reckoned the chef was heavy handed with the salt. Still a great experience. Recommended.
Eliza BethMarch 7, 2017
Cocktails are good! :) Come here for delish $1 oysters from 5-6! Can't say I'd recommend the beignets...

There is different types of expensive, one is the well-whatever-its-super-good kind, the other one is the are-they-out-of-their-mind kind. This is the latter sort. Terrible ROI on food.

We've lushed over the Hot Castle Dip cocktail - now onto the food. Try the smoked black cod croquettes w/ packed wallop under their crust. The chopped liver on toast is a delight. Read more

Great cocktails! Food was pretty good (fresh & flavorful), but portions were pretty small and the check was pretty big...I would pass on this place again.
