The San Francisco Bay Area’s Best Vinyl Bars and Listening Bars | Eater SF

"Like many places south of Gough Street, Phonobar is hard to find if you’re not looking for it. There’s a diverse range of seating in the low-slung ceiling front room highlighted by a greenhouse windowed alcove. Sipping cocktails and eating vegan bites from Om Sabor, you might not feel like you’re in a listening bar until you settle into the cavernous, leather banquette-lined back room, where seating faces a raised DJ booth in the crown jewel atmosphere of the entire space. Here, vinyl selectors (like Rebirth Jazz every third Wednesday) dig into their crates for tunes ‘til midnight over premium audio." - Adrian Spinelli
