The Best Bar in Embarcadero, San Francisco

Background Illustration for Nightlife

The waterfront's eastern section stays busy at night, not a surprise given its expansive bay views and proximity to Union Square, Chinatown, the Financial District, and SoMa.

Hi Dive

Embarcadero

For a city with so much waterfront mileage, it's shocking how few waterfront bars San Francisco has. This very welcoming, somewhat retro, kind of divey bar almost directly underneath the Bay Bridge is the perfect place for a local IPA while watching a Warriors game on TV in the cozy indoor space or a margarita on the patio on a sunny day. The fish tacos and other food items are definitely a step above casual pub fare.
