Twin Peaks Tavern

If you want to feel like an intruder, order a drink from Steven. The most aggressive barman I've evere met!

Great spot to have a beer and either socialize or wait until your seat is ready at a nearby restaurant. Is cash only, so, bring cash or use their "conveniently located" ATM upstairs

People call this place the glass coffin but it's a nice view of the Castro and it's quite festa and a friendly place

Off-putting, loud, condescending, obnoxious, drunk bartender at 2pm. Couldn’t wait to leave. Not for new customers.

A. Great. Travern to. Take. Friends. nd. Have. Few. Drinks. Located. San Francisco

Super nice atmosphere and bartender! Cash only, but there's a debit card machine at the bar.

Twin Peaks Tavern is one of those places that’s more about the experience and history than anything else. It has a classic San Francisco feel and definitely holds its place as an iconic spot in the city. The vibe is relaxed and very neighborhood-oriented. It feels like a place with a lot of regulars and a strong sense of community, which gives it character and makes it feel authentic rather than polished or trendy. Drinks are straightforward and exactly what you’d expect, nothing fancy, but dependable. One thing to note is that they only accept cash, so be sure to come prepared. Service was fine overall. Friendly enough, but not especially warm or memorable. Everything functioned smoothly, just without much of a standout moment. Twin Peaks Tavern is worth stopping into, especially if you’re exploring the area or appreciate places with history and personality. It’s not somewhere I’d go out of my way for, but it’s a comfortable stop and a good representation of an old-school San Francisco bar.

I hate to write this. Weeknight bar staff can easily ignore blatant/obvious sexual harassment from one customer to another, even with loud verbal altercations, but they have eagle eyes for plastic water bottles in a city where, arguably, most people walk and use transit, and hence have bottles of water. I understand outside drink policies but it can be ridiculous for water in particular (which is free anyways) when most places would not enforce that AND in context of a perceived lack of observance of sexual harassment (possibly assault) of someone. Maybe it is just ignorance, or maybe that is relaxed given a lot of clientele seem to target younger folks, but they should never lay hands on people. Disappointing because I never leave reviews and this is one of the few locations in this city open late on weeknights.

My wife and I stopped in on a Saturday. I had an old fashioned (tasty but they didn't have a big ice cube). She had an Irish coffee. It's the kind of place that SF yuppies might bring their relatives visiting from a less excitiing 'Burb. Tastefully, appropriately cozy. And definitely SF Castro, but mature.

Always top of the line tasty food, Friendly staff
