"San Franciscans will say goodbye to a popular Mission District bar and pizzeria in the coming weeks. SFGATE reports that 13-year-old Pi Bar, a restaurant and bar located on Valencia Street between 25th and 26th streets, will close by the end of February. The owners coyly announced the impending closure on Instagram, sharing a photo of a public notice of application for transferring the business’s liquor license to a new owner. Co-owner Rich Rosen and his wife and co-owner Jen Garris tell SFGATE that the decision to close comes from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Rosen says that the couple has been running the restaurant without help from any additional staff for the past three years." - Lauren Saria
"After 13 years of pizza and beer, Pi Bar will close its doors for good around the end of February." - Paolo Bicchieri
"How many slice places have Pliny the Elder on tap? Pi Bar does: Basically, its’ a quality beer bar with a kitchen turning out whole pies and slices. Those are $4.50, with 35 cents for extra for toppings — two and a beer is a square meal." - Caleb Pershan
"Russian River may get all the love for Pliny the Younger, their yearly triple IPA release, but their ‘tion series of aged and sour beers are arguably the more compelling. Pi Bar serves them and has a secret weapon: Pizza." - Caleb Pershan
