Poppin! So I normally hit Sip Lounge, but I guess it’s closed. We stumbled upon this spot and it was kind of dead BUT they had a DJ. DJ played good music, we played pool, and had a great time. It’s so chill and the people are hella cool there. I can’t wait to return next week!

This is a your typical smelly North Beach bar. Man, I can only imagine all the puking that’s happened in this place over the years. It wreaks of stale beer, like the morning after a huge frat party. But it’s filthy SF, so this is what you get, sticky floors and all. I was there recently checking out some live music and I had a pretty good time. It would have been more enjoyable if the bartender wasn’t a total jerk, but dick bartenders are the norm in this city. I would say waiting 10 minutes for a beer is a little over the top. If I ever go back there I’m taking a flask with me, so suck it!

The bartenders here are on it! Even when it’s busy, they still seem to be able to pump out drinks like crazy !! They also have some rad musical talent throughout most weekends. If you’re in the neighborhood, stop in and say hi to the barkeep. I’m sure you’ll be taken good care of.

Came here on Santacon and it was just absolutely packed. Shoulder to shoulder craziness. I read somewhere that is is $ 15 min for cc/debit, but on santacon it was $ 30 min — jeez louise! The music was pretty good though — If I could make my way through the crowd I would’ve gone to the dance floor but not worth it. I’d like to come back during normalcy,

Good place but kinda smells musty in there. The jukebox is also kinda wack because its a $ 1.50 per song and the selection isn’t all that great. The pool table is a redeeming factor though. Its a good place to go get a beer.

Waited patiently about 10minutes ago. The rude bartender in the 49er hat went right around me and helped the guy behind me. Either racist or Homophobic. Not a welcoming place. Rude!

It’s a dive bar. No frills, not a hookup meat market, just a place to get a drink and socialize with the regulars or to unwind after a long day at work. Prices are very reasonable, esp with the 2 drinks for the price of 1 during happy hour. Bartenders are nice and the patrons know when to talk to you and when to give you privacy. What more can you ask for.

Last stop on a fun night with friends. We ended up here because it was the only bar in the close vicinity that didn’t have a line. I’m all for dive bars but this place has sticky and wet tables that could really have used some kind of wipe and the band was accompanied by some really trashed people in their early 20s that were almost humping on the dance floor. Oh and they have a $ 15 minimum for credit card transactions — I’ll keep my thoughts to myself on this!

It’s happening at this saloon — especially on sports game, Friday and Saturday nights! This rowdy bar gives you a sense of what North Beach bars are in the neighborhood. You’ll have a fun time here!

a dive bar with a 2-for-1 special until 9, and even after that the drinks are so cheap your wallet will be as happy as you are. dingy-looking bathrooms which are actually moderately clean upon closer inspection(the multitude of stickers is a distraction, I guess). there was live music towards the end of the night, but I was busy pounding inexpensive shots of Fireball and pints of Sierra Nevada to care. bonus points for the Dead Kennedys posters and solid rock playlist. this is my kind of joint.

Super rad staff, cheap happy hour and they pour the Jameson with a heavy hand. If you’re in north beach, this spot is a definite must do.

Dive bar. Tables were filthy and covered in sticky drink residue. Only plus is cheap happy hour. You get a token for a free drink with the purchase of a draft beer or well drink. Wasn’t very crowded on a Saturday night. We left after our free drink to go elsewhere as loud obnoxious girls were screaming over by the pool table.

Divey, but a good dive bar. Happy hour is 4 – 9 errday, meaning 2 drinks for the price of one. After you order your drink, the bartender will give you a ticket for another free drink. Love it. The only thing that’s kind of weird is that the bartender will not make drinks other than well drinks or beer during happy hour. I think there was a pinball machine? Crowd(at least when I went) is drunk mid 20’s-30-somethings.

I hadn’t been to the Grant and Green for many years until recently… Seems like I have found myself in this North Beach bar at least four times in the last couples of months. When I lived in the neighborhood around the turn of the century, I often nipped into the G&G with friends. It was a hardcore biker bar with a doorman that turned a blind eye to our underage status. On my recent visits there, I have enjoyed the divey atmosphere, though it is a huge step above its previous incarnation both in hygiene and atmosphere(bathroom is a lot less scary). Yes, the bar is still sticky, but at least they have an incredibly long two for one happy hour. The location cannot be beat. There is nothing better than finding a perch at the bar and watching the North Beach pastiche of scenes unfold in the heart of it all. Great DJ on a recent evening as well, spinning old school hip hop that made dancing mandatory.

Okay, I live in Pittsburg, and It’s worth the BART ride for me be able to enjoy the North Beach nightlife and visit my fave bar G&G! They have one of the best happy hours of any bar, lounge, dive, saloon ect of any place I’ve ever visited. Plus some of my fave bartenders ever! It’s located at such a great spot with other venues and eateries around when you need a snack. Perfect place let loose and unwind and catch a game or partake in whatever festivities that would happen to be going on in or around North Beach. Although I usually go every other week or so(Sundays) I’ve met some cool people there from around the world. I adore this place. Tre Smith You Know!

There is one reason to come here, drinks are cheap! I don’t if it was a special or something, but I was getting $ 4 Jameson Rocks all night! WTH??? $ 4??? Mind blown! The bar itself is a dive. I gets super crowded($ 4???). It had a live cover band on Saturday night, and I am assuming other nights as well. Oh and it has a pool table. I’ll come again($ 4???)!

Update– they added $ 10 to my tab without my consent. If I could give 0 stars I would Had a great night after the giants won WS3. My buddy invited me to play drums with his funk band about a week before. After about ten shots and 5 beers with my two homies I brought to the bar, this bartender told me to quit and pay. I had only 3 shots and a beer but totalled a $ 100 tab. So dude makes me pay my tab, I tip him 15%(fair=$ 1 tip per drink) and he says«thanks for the tip a-hole». One of my buddies responds«f.u» in a n incredulous way. Dude says«I’ve been pouring this @ss drinks all night» and kicks us out. We werent even there for 2 hours and couldn’t understand why this dude would cut us off. I didnt even get to play music, but luckily my homey had an extra drummer for the night. Had to leave my $ 3000 drum kit in a bar that kicked me out. Talk about an a-hole! Would have given one star, but I did have fun. So… F** it!

Let’s cut to the chase. It’s a dive bar. We stumbled onto this place after dinner. The bartenders were awesome, the atmosphere(loud and crowded) was ideal and the drinks were stiff. Bonus was a 2 for one beers before 9pm. Love this place. It’s everything you could ask for in a dive bar. Poorly laid out, unisex restroom, badly in need of a remodel, edgy staff, an 80’s cover band(more heart, then talent but I’m good with that) and single pool table in the middle of the dance floor. If the walls could talk, oh the stories they could tell.
