"Soaking in the salty sea air at Ocean Beach got you thirsty? Make your way to White Cap. The Outer Sunset spot a few blocks from the water is a neighborhood hub for classic cocktails that are well-made (and get the job done), like the house paloma or 131 Hearts with tequila, pineapple, and tomatillo. This place is pretty mellow—an Outer Sunset requirement—with a fireplace in the back and ‘90s hip-hop playing. And in case you forget you’re by the beach, just look at the blue banquettes and wooden walls that make you feel like you’re on a boat." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez

"In the far western avenues, White Cap’s fireplace is small but mighty, attracting savvy Outer Sunset drinkers and surfers to its cozy back area to thaw out from the waves. But it’s also not-so-secretly one of the best cocktail spots in SF, co-owned by a master ice cutter, with a seasonally rotating list." - Becky Duffett
"A cocktail pro and a surfer teamed up to open White Cap, which is succeeding in warming up the Outer Sunset, a neighborhood in need of more watering holes. Filled with driftwood and a fireplace, drinkers can get cozy with a strong drink after a beach walk." - Lauren Saria, Eater Staff
"White Cap’s fireplace is small but mighty, attracting savvy Parkside/Outer Sunset drinkers to its back area and away from the oft-chilly front bar. With a seasonally-rotating cocktail list, it’s more than just a spot to fight the westside chill." - Paolo Bicchieri, Dianne de Guzman
