"Natural wine bars in the city are as common as black puffer jackets. But natural wine bars where you can also dance? Head to this spot in the Mission for that. Bar Part Time feels like a Brooklyn transplant with its fun checkered floors, a DJ spinning records in the corner, and high ratio of beanies per capita. Stake your claim near the shelves filled with vinyl, grab a bottle from the fridge, and prepare to swap sweat with a stranger." - ricky rodriguez, julia chen 1, lani conway
"Brooklyn friends coming to town? They’ll feel right at home at Bar Part Time. The Mission natural wine bar is cavernous, decked out with a disco ball, BPT-branded wine glasses, and shelves of vinyl. It's good conversation fodder for when you rub against someone who unironically wears sunglasses indoors. Just be prepared to wake up the next day with the DJ’s Instagram handle scribbled on your palm in Sharpie." - julia chen 1, patrick wong, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
"We talk about Bar Part Time all the time (story of our lives), but that’s because they’re the best dance and natural wine bar in the city, and we love them as much as we love the first sunny day after months of fog. With a giant disco ball and lines around the block, this is the place to see-and-be-seen, dance to electronic-ish music and precariously hold up a glass of wine on the very tight dance floor—and then pop outside for a cig along with literally everyone else. Just make sure you wear your best Brooklyn cosplay outfit, we wouldn’t want you to stand out otherwise." - ricky rodriguez
"In SF, natural wine bars are about as common as black puffer jackets. But natural wine bars where you can also dance? We head to this spot in the Mission for that. Bar Part Time just feels like a party thanks to its fun checkered floors, a DJ spinning records in the corner, and a disco ball overhead. Sure, the shelves filled with vinyl and the high ratio of beanies per capita make this spot feel trendier than a fancy soap store, but it’s not hard to have a good time here. The cushy booths are exactly where we want to be on a Thursday night with friends or on a third date. Grab a bottle from their fridge, and get dancing." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, lani conway
"To say Bar Part Time is absolutely not your average wine bar still feels like an understatement. In fact, it’s a full-on bacchanal wine party with a dance floor lorded over by a glittering disco ball and populated with hip young people pounding that good juice and grooving to music from a truly impressive lineup of DJs. As for the wine, it’s all-natural, of course. On Tuesday nights come through for $10 off bottles to drink on-site." - Dianne de Guzman
