14 Best New Bars to Try in San Francisco Right Now

"Ginger’s is a favorite queer bar in the Financial District that’s served as a local, post-work drinking spot. Despite a closure in 2008 that eventually led to a move and resurrection in 2017, this beloved bar closed again at the onset of the pandemic in 2020. Ginger’s eventually launched a comeback in June 2024, just in time for the city’s Pride festivities. Future Bars, the team behind Bourbon and Branch and Dawn Club among others, is behind the cocktail program so expect solid drinks such as the Queen Bee, which features tequila mixed with passionfruit, peach, vanilla, and a touch of habanero tincture. The bar also hosts various events, such as karaoke and drag shows, which means one more reason to go." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
