Natural wines, charcuterie, and cookies in a cozy spot
"For $10 wines by the glass and 25% off bottles (or for the IPA-heads, $5 draft beers), head to Rampant Bottle & Bar in the Richmond. In case you’re feeling snacky, the snug wine bar also does half-price hummus and charcuterie." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"The few blocks around the Balboa Theatre are a natural wine destination—there’s Slake, The Laundromat, and this Outer Richmond spot. The snug bottle shop is ideal for cozying up at the bar with a promising third date or toasting to a poodle mix’s first birthday. Bottles, by-the-glass options, and snacky plates like hummus and salami make it easy to linger for hours while people-watching from the huge windows or admiring the hot dog-shaped lamps and shelves of chillable reds. Another reason to get here: there’s a daily Happy Hour with $10 glasses and deals on charcuterie." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, lani conway
"On a hot mid-February day, an espresso tonic topped with a wheel of blood orange arrives with a well-pulled shot that is “fruity and vibrant.” The drink now uses the pop-up’s own roasted coffee: Joel Lohner, a 2025 silver medalist in the U.S. Roasting Championship, developed Poorboy’s debut eight roasts. What began as a social-media sensation has evolved into something more substantial; Paolo Bicchieri says the espresso tonic “stands amongst most of the best in San Francisco,” and that the operation doesn’t feel like an odd person out tucked between neighbors but rather like a proper “big three.” The reviewer concludes that “the espresso tonic sure does the trick on a hot day.”" - Paolo Bicchieri
"Natural and low-intervention wines star at Rampant Bottle & Bar, with a selection of bites, conservas, and pop-ups to satisfy visitors. The bottle selections span a mix of wines from the U.S., France, Italy, Spain, and more, and there are a smattering of beers by the bottle and can, as well as two options on draft." - Dianne de Guzman
