The 19 Best Cocktail Bars In SF - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"If you dream of visiting the Gropius House and actively search Instagram for pictures of Marcel Breuer slate floors, you'll love True Laurel. Even if you didn’t understand any of the words we just strung together, you'll still enjoy yourself here. This cocktail bar in the Mission (from the people behind Lazy Bear) is beautifully designed to a mid-century modern T, and brings equal creative genius to its drinks, which tend to involve specialty ingredients like fermented honey and roasted quince. The space is small, and we highly recommend trying to get bar seats so you can watch the bartenders at work. Getting a patty melt to soak up the booze isn’t a bad idea, either." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
