"A gaudy, gold-drenched chill upstairs bar paired with a massively packed downstairs basement is how Monarch has made a name for itself over the years. So come to this SoMa spot if you're indecisive—or just have a fickle friend group. This is an energetic night of contrasts. The upstairs bar has a giant mirror and fun wavy light fixtures accenting the walls, giving it an eclectic, lighthearted feel with Top 40 remixes. Meanwhile, downstairs is warehouse-party-rave energy with a giant video screen, minimal light, and techno blaring through the speakers." - Ricky Rodriguez

Stopped by for a quick drink when through town and loved it. There's an outdoor bar perch, a patio then various indoor spaces to sit. So many great little nooks and the vibe of this space is perfect. I highly recommend this place. I wish I wasn't been so worn out from traveling to have been able to hang longer. I expect this is a great weekend spot as it was quite slow during the week when I visited.

I've been frequenting this bar for quite some time now and I can honestly say that Monarch is home to some of the best bar tenders and red beers in town! The place is cozy, but I certainly stay for the people. A DJ lover's paradise in the sense that they feature frequent DJ shows, some of which are performed by the bartenders themselves. Whether you're a day drinker, or an evening creature, this bar merits a visit. A bar with a heartbeat, totally recommend stopping by!

I love that place. The food is just amazing, there's a lot of people smoking, which is a big con but the food itself is great (huge pro)

Always awesome, resurrected the guy bar tenders, there's at least one chick that will ignore you unless you're a male, but I almost never see her, it's one of my fav spots to grab a drink. The decor is so unique it feels like you're at a friend's house for a party

Had a great time. Went on a Sunday afternoon. The bartender put on a movie called Black Roses, it's a Troma film from the 1980s and I LOVED IT!!! Some normie came in and told her to put a boring basketball game on... WACK! Still, the bartender put good music on. I recommend Monarch for some action! 👍 They know how to make cocktails.
