"Hayes Valley has its fair share of cozy outdoor drinking oases, and Birba is one of them. The wine bar and bottle shop has an excellent patio for sipping one of the bar’s natural-leaning wine selections, or an aperitivi, year-round. Round off drinks with a selection from the bar’s tinned fish options, a pistachio-feta dip with crudites, or have a moment of caviar indulgence, if you choose." - Dianne de Guzman, Eater Staff
"This Hayes Valley wine bar, with a scant number of tables inside and on the covered back patio, has a slightly pastoral vibe with its interiors of plain white and wood. The kitchen produces snacks, lunch, and dinner to accompany primarily European wines. In Italian, Birba means "little troublemaker,” but at this namesake spot, the only trouble is making sure you’ll get in." - Lauren Saria, Eater Staff
"Hadeem launches on Wednesday, May 17 from 5 to 10 p.m. at Buddy in San Francisco, with upcoming dates in June and July at Birba, Habibi, and Bar Iris." - Dianne de Guzman
"Birba feels like a slice of Copenhagen, or maybe Stockholm. The aesthetic is pared-back, blonde-wood-everywhere minimalism. It’s cool…like, really cool. The booze list leans toward natural, biodynamic bottles from small, primarily French and Italian producers. The sherry and vermouth list is expansive. For those looking to abstain from alcohol, Birba’s Seedlip spritz tastes like sparkling summer in a glass, especially when enjoyed on the pretty patio. This small bar hosts regular food pop-ups, and currently, you’ll find Intu-On, a Thai concept worth driving for. "
