"If you’re looking for a place with a more modern Irish bar vibe, Casements in the Mission is where to find it. Rather than decor that’s dripping in shamrocks, its Ireland-ness comes through in other ways: Casements pours a large selection of Irish whiskeys and gins, for instance, and the cocktail menu mixes both Irish and local (or woman-led) brands into its drinks. The food menu is nothing to pass up: the Spice Bag and the beef and Guinness stew made with Niman Ranch beef are to die for. There’s a huge patio in the back where live bands and DJs perform regularly." - Paolo Bicchieri
