Louie's Bar

Best late-night drop in bar ever!! Such friendly and welcoming staff, we got in late after flight delays and had the best meal and drinks one could hope for after a long day. Stayed from 10pm to midnight - couldn't recommend more. Try the spicy chicken!!

Well let’s just say San Francisco’s top list of venues to visit, eat, drink and enjoy the hospitality. This is one more on my list of must experience for your self. Such a great experience and vibe here. The cheese sauce on the crispy fries is “amazing”! This is a house made amazing cheese sauce. I want to put it on all my future meals here.

This place has the most delicious burgers I've ever had. Besides burgers, the rest of the food is also amazing. The staff is friendly and fun. They have a full bar with great cocktails. The ambiance is nice, but the only downside is that the restrooms are in bad shape.

Good thing about this is that we can just walk in and get seated without waiting. It was really empty and good music so far. Service was ok, the guy offered water and all. Food took a really long time to come out. Ordered kickin chicken, that was easily the WORST chicken sandwich I’ve ever had. Not only it was dry on the outside, those poor chicken also got really overcooked you can almost make chicken floss out of it. Not only that, it was so small compared to the buns. Oh my god it was disgusting. It was said that it’s supposed to he spicy, but boy was it dry and lack of flavor, no sauce, it’s an absolute, total garbage that belongs in the trash can. The tots were ok, the tomato sauce had some oil on the top like it’s old or something. 10/10 will not come back for food. Maybe the drinks.

Don't let this place fools you - even it's successfully trying mimicking dive bars and belongs to same "Pour Guys" who owns the best SF dive bar (in my humble opinion) "Tempest", it's completely other atmosphere inside, even with almost the same type of music. Clientele consists of modern age yuppies, venture capitalists and other tech bro's with their perfect haircuts (sorry, but that stands out somehow). Even the guy who sits next to you, wearing his snapback or trucker hat (!) backwards, funny/ironic t-shirt or hoodie is not an average blue collar - but, hey, he sure can pass some investment advices on next hotter than hot IPO's listings if you, somehow, brake through his mental blocks. Well, I've not even tried, so leaving that to you. But don't forget - they're men (and women) who live in that surrounding high castles on Main St, Millennium Tower and all in-between in Financial District. Well, enough with my alcohol talking, because rotational drafts here is at the same high standards with "Tempest", especially "Louie's" still carries that 17.6% Imperial Stout what "Tempest" lost right during the pandemic. Burger was really tasty for it's bare minimum of $16. But, boy, be prepared for other type of experience, artisanal cocktails and hard liquors, and $100+ tabs all around you from not-your-average not-dive-bar. "Tempest" is still the best, "Louie's" is different, better or worse - that's for you to decide. And to explore.

The tacos took me by surprise and blew my mind❕ I did not see them coming from a bar. I thought for sure they would be some oil fried, food truck fare. That’s a real chef! You gotta try them. Had a nice drink from the bar as well. Staff is all great! Also, great company for dinner with #UlyssesBrownJr

Loved this bar. I came here once because it was open late while offering pretty good food. Then I kept coming every day. Great place to meet up with folks or enjoy a drink and book on your own.

The bar is really pretty on the inside. There's no servers so you order everything directly at the bar. The staff was super nice and warm, I loved their attitude. The food was good too. They open until late which is pretty convenient when you're a traveler. It's a bit in the pricey side but you will get your money's worth.
