Fido FactorAugust 3, 2011Take your pup along for happy hour! Monday to Wednesday are the best days to come with your dog since it usually isn't too crowded.
Nice small bar. Hang out in the outdoor patio area in the back if there's room.
Praful GuptaMay 12, 2013Good bar, was empty on a friday night but then again maybe thats how SoMa is late night. Good drinks though! Use the Rocketbot mobile app to control the music!
Jessica ChoateApril 4, 2013Our Spicy Vixen Jessica is in and welcome you to try our yummy Spicy Vines Sangria
- Taylor LeeJuly 10, 2018This is the perfect place to grab a drink before you head to the Giant's game.
- Babberly SFJune 24, 2013Great happy hour here! Cheap drinks, and usually not too full on any given night, Read more
TeresaDecember 14, 2014Pick your music (app involved). $3 shots - pick a # and bartender will pick a poison.
Lots of people don't realize there is a small patio in back. Nice when the main area is crowded!
Scott AskewApril 4, 2013The name doesn't lie. Stick to the basics here. My Manhattan was shaken just enough to turn muddy but not enough to actually chill it. Cheap happy hour though!
they have liter glasses when you need a real drink
Former Gallery Lounge with updated booths and bar. A good stop-in for after work or the ballgames.
Drinks are reasonable and ok. I only come here because it is close to cal train.
Gregori ParkerOctober 5, 2012Shit is pretty basic. They do have mario kart and music playlists on their flatscreens.
Beat Tyson on the Nintendo and Mike will think you're cool.
