Cocktails are amazing and they have a great selection of wine as well. Perfect for dates or a quieter after work drink with your bff :)

Great vibe, in a clubby atmosphere. All ages and types of folks; a perfect cross section of San Francisco.

Look for Nate behind the bar. He's the new guy, but has excellent attention to detail in his cocktail craft.

The cheese plate is a really good value compared to the other items on the menu. It comes with crackers, bread, and fruit as well.

I go here for holiday drinks yearly for my birthday and Christmas. Its cozy, classy and the drinks are strong.

A hotel bar that doesn't feel like a hotel bar. Good cocktails and fast service.

I came here to view the infamous mural only to find out via Wikipedia that it was sold at a Chrystie's auction 3 months earlier. :/ Word in the hotel is, the people are demanding its return...

Really nice bar in a nice hotel. The painting over the bar is incredible.

Extremely reasonable cocktail prices for a SF hotel bar. And great bartenders.
Chris GoDecember 25, 2012
Try the fried chicken. Worth the 25 minute wait. Comes with a sweet honey sauce as well as a hot sauce.

If you like vodka and you like pears, get the Anjou! Best drink on the menu.

Amanda, the jazz pianist here, is wonderful! Lovely to drink a cocktail and listen to her play in the back room.

Older hotel crowd, so it's relatively quiet, even when it's busy.

Martinis, free nuts and big screen TVs

The charlie chaplin is an interesting citrus-tasting whiskey cocktail. A lady here described it as "medicinal".

The pied piper painting is back and is a sighted behold.

The Pied Piper painting has been removed for "cleaning." Publicity stunt?

Great bar. Too bad it is full of drunk conventioneers right now. Nothing to muffle the noise.
Betty LimOctober 14, 2013
Excellent service.

So I tried the chicken club sandwich and found it had an odd taste. Might be okay for some, but I didn't really like it.
Patty MelaraAugust 4, 2011
Best dirty martini I have had in a long time.

Great cocktails but the foods sub par and pricey. Skip the food.

You'll love this bar if you like old tourists and expensive, very average cocktails.

Ordered the club sandwich. It was served cold. Really disappointing. Also: poor service. Will not go back

Anything but a burger kind of misses the point, no?
Wilson Favre-DelerueJanuary 21, 2016
Understaffed and mediocre food. Definitely not up to par for a supposedly 4 star hotel.
