15 SF Bars Where You Can Actually Meet People

"Unlike most other spots in this guide, Li Po Cocktail Lounge is never filled to the brim. That doesn’t matter because, on any day of the week, you’re certain to run into someone who is looking for the strongest mai tai in town and a piece of Chinatown history—and those are always the types of people with the best stories. Also known as our types of people. " - ricky rodriguez, julia chen 1
