First time here. Nice Beer Bar. A few good snacks. Decent Tap selection and really good bottle list.The place is nicely decorated but it feels cold and it was cold because they had the door open! On a cold and windy summer evening.Not sure how much about beer both bartenders know.Will come back in a few weeks to see how they handle their beer offering.
Great craft beer selection, knowledgeable staff
(5/5): Great ambiance, knowledgeable and friendly bartender and decent pricing/selection.I came here after visiting SF with my wife for Thanksgiving after visiting another bar that ended up being closed. Fortunately, The Beer Halls intimate atmosphere and friendly bartender justified the change of plans. Despite being the only one working and serving at least 10+ people, drinks and food orders were taken and delivered without delay. In addition, the bar offered a surprising selection of beer, and the bartender was very knowledgeable about which one to recommend depending on a customers taste. Prices were fair averaging about $7 for most beers, and the bathroom was rather clean! At the time, the food menu was limited to a few items that were much better than expected. I highly recommend the citrus olives, which both of us devoured. Overall, Id revisit this bar if Im ever in town again.
Awesome opportunity to try some great Beers... Went in the early afternoon on the weekend and the bar was packed. Day time bartender flying. Still able to acknowledge you and get to you and your order in good time. Great selection of beer to sample and had good music playing. Making the day in the city even better.
Love the beer and the vibe of this off-the-beaten-path hole-in-the-wall.
First time in San Francisco and we were looking for a laid back bar to visit on a Friday night. After reading many reviews about shady bars in the area with rude bartenders (who might double charge you if youre not paying attention) and long wait times, we were a bit hesitant to go out. However, The Beer Hall was a pleasant surprise! Great beers on tap and friendly staff. The atmosphere was just what we were looking for and they even had a few sours on the menu, which was a plus. Definitely would go again if I ever end up in that part of San Francisco.
Great place to chill, play a couple of games and taste some good beer. They have a strict ID policy so dont forget to bring your ID if you want to have a drink. The games are fun but they could use some repairs...
A really nice and cozy pub. I really recommend a visit to this place. They have many unique types of beer. If you dont know which one you want, they can give you some small samples you can taste before you dicide which one you want. The staff was really friendly and helpful.
This is not a good place for post-concert drinks as they require all people to have IDs even if they are not drinking. They will waste your time explaining the menu to you for several minutes before informing you of their requirement that everyone in the group must have an ID.
I like the atmosphere, good selection of beer, friendly enough staff. Got there on a weekday at 4:30 and had no problem getting a table. It really filled up by about 5
Great selection of beer and snacks. We rented out the full bar for a private holiday event. The staff was so nice and accommodating. Recommend coming here after work or if you want a get together for a private event like a birthday celebration!
Good selection of a spectrum of styles. Nice service and friendly vibes. Expensive even for SF though.
Amazing unique beers. Great place for beers. They have wine as well
Very good bottle selection and a great (but not huge) tap list. The bartenders have always been super friendly and helpful. Definitely worth a try if youre in the area. Its a great place to go if some in your party would prefer wine over beer since they have solid wine options too
Yet another awesome craft beer bar! This place has been around for a few years now, and shows no sign of going anywhere. It gets a bit busy and loud around happy hour, but otherwise no complaints. Dont feel like drinking at a bar? Youre in luck, theyre a great bottle shop too!
Great selection of draft beer got to take my dad there and it was a chill environment definitely will be back there.. Within walking distance to other draft beer places as well which is always a plus.
Great staff. Chill bar. Great beers on tap that change often. Highly recommend.
Cozy place that’s super convenient for accessing a fairly wide selection of beers. I’m a stout drinker and am always impressed that they have at least 2 good options for me to try. Great spot for an after work drink with 1-2 colleagues.
Small place with very little signage. You really have to walk right by it to find it, and even then you might miss it. Attentive staff at the bar, nice pours, good beer and wine selections. Busy most nights but, if youre in early enough to get a seat at the bar, a good place to people watch. They have a tv tuned to sports but we sat under it cuz thats not our jam. Nice for weeknight drinks.
Pretty interesting placeuIts got a very clean feel to it. And the staff is knowledgeable and I to the subject matter. They offer a very large selection of bottled beer for sale, which you can take home or drink there. Lots of beers on tap as well.Doesnt really feel inviting but they have good food and is a good place around city hall for an after work drink.
Great service. Good selection. Helpful staff.
I love this place. Great tap list, a few sandwiches an little nibbles etc. Also amazing bottles to take home.
Great selection of beers. Very friendly. Nice vibe.
My workmates and I always came here almost every weekend to have some fun, the staff were great, cocktails was really goodd!!
Good vibe, music, and selection of beers.
This place is awesome!! The beer selection is extensive and the service is top notch! Weve come here for happy hour multiple times (the only thing is, they dont open until 4- some days you just need happy hour at 3:30 ;D). Everyone always has a great time!
This is my go to place to grab a beer and just relax after a long day of crushing it at work. Weight is such a great guy. Highly recommend the beer selection!
I cool little spot. The owners are friendly and knowledgeable, they have a nice selection of beer, and the decor is cool. The main clientele seemed to be techies/hipsters, but as long as that aspect doesnt bother you, its a great place to go sample some new beers.
Great selection. Bottle selection is especially impressive. Comfortable atmosphere, finally a beer bar with the noise level of a wine bar. You can have a conversation here. Im a fan.
Very nice place and a good variety of beers to choose! Recommended to beers lovers
This place is great! Tons of good beer, lively but not too loud to have a conversation
I went here during the soft opening but still really enjoyed the selection and staff. Its a bit more modern and sterile inside, but the wall of beer is quite impressive as is the list of beers on tap. Very small seating area but once you settle down there is no where else you need to go. You can drink unique beers here until you see pink elephants walking by.
Best beer selection Ive ever seen and great ambiance. I would come back here with my friends/family, just to go to this place and you will see.
Wow. Great craft beer selection. Staff that know their stuff and a funky, eclectic crowd of beer lovers. Fair prices. A little oasis in this part of town.
Great place to meet with friends to have a drink and listen to music. Fun spot!
Cool little spot, with some interesting selections on tap. The place is small, and the bartender was nice and knowledgeable. Too many IPAs for me, so I had a smaller selection, but it was still a good spot.
Amazing selection of brews from all around the world, including a German logger you cant find anywhere else!
Always something new to try on the menu... it’s really hard to drink them all :P limited seating so not for a party of 20 or more... great service with a smile, prices are standard for downtown, you pay for the discovery and opportunity to try up to date new beers from lots of local/new breweries. Drink one for me!
Cool place with 2 of the strongest and best tasting stouts beers I have ever had.
My beer master friend says the beer selection is well balanced. The menu screen makes it very easy to find your perfect beverage. This is a well curated beer menu. And I love the pop top art wall!
One of the best tap rooms in the city, awesome beertenders and an excellent selection of cans/bottles to take with you
Good selection of beer, but it felt much more divey that I expected. Just wanted to sit, enjoy a beer and chat and the music was so loud I had to yell to be heard across the table...guess I was looking for a more chill vibe
I used to give this place a good review but niw not so much. Tonight i walked in here for the first time in a while and the bar tender said can i helpbu find a place???? Sound led like he was judging my apperence. Then i said oh im gettong a beer. Reminding u i just walled in then right away say ok wat are u having. And he look at my id for like 5 min. I told him im gotta look at the menu first. Everything was kool after that but ge kept loolin at me as i drank makin me feel very uncomfortable. I work in the industry before and know when some one is lookin at me the wrong way.
Best place in SF for craft beers. Especially since you can enjoy a couple from the tap and take a few home for later. Great owners and location. Cant beat this place.
Beer Hall has a wonderful selection of beers, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. If you have a larger group and youre going on a high traffic time, you should send someone to scout out tables early because the place isnt huge.
Great beer selection (and a beer hall full of bottles for sale!) at an overtly trendy place on Market.Pretty sure this place wouldnt exist without that shiny twitter office across the street...
Nice staff, lots of choices to make a fun flight.
Great place. Laid back atmosphere with great beer selection. Expensive of course since its in mid-market.
A great selection of draft beers that rotates frequently, a staff that is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, wonderful owners, high-quality bar style snack foods, and an awesome location. Best beer bar in the city!
Great selection, super friendly staff who knows their beer and love talking about it. The place is a small and can get crammed.
Wonderful place to chill, relax and play a a few games. Make sure to bring your ID, my friend is 40 and she got carded!
Nice bar for good cold beer and appreciating the nearby working women 😉
I stopped here for a beer after work. Not my style. But the place seems cool.
Love the cozy size and selection! Hole in the wall in the middle of the city.
Drew and Jen are lovely people. Great beer options. Good music. Cozy. What else can you ask for?
Panini is fantastic!
We really enjoyed our visit. We went during pride. We stumbled apon it again lol I really liked it!! It was really fun!!The only thing that I have to complain about is that the beertender skipped over me twice.
Great beer selection, located conveniently close to Symphony Hall.
Good selection, decent price, sorta small.
Honestly only went in here to pee before and after Pride. After Pride they were selling drinks outside (champagne & margaritas) ; same price WAY different proportions. When I said I changed my mind after she poured the champagne, she said she still had to charge me although I hadn’t even touched it, bad unaccommodating business practice. I would never go back other than to use the restroom.
A great variety of beers not usually found at other bars. The to-go beer menu is awesomely huge.
Great atmosphere and friendly staff.
Great place to stop in and have a beer during the rush! Even better at night when it pops!
Good beer selection. Clean and cozy. Perfect for an after-work drink with a small number of people.
Great selection of beer, super helpful and knowledgeable staff.
Friendly staff and great selection. Had some delicious sours on tap and bottles for purchase which I love
The place has many craft beer which are awesome. But the space kind of hard to move around. Food are just so so.
More homey than you might expect for a bar in a brand new building, they offer an excellent selection of largely domestic craft brews as well as light snacks. The pretzel was delicious!
Great beer bar with 20 taps and a large bottle selection. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, and the atmosphere is quiet and relaxing.
Good selection of beers and great ambiance.
Fantastic beer selection and close to Bill Graham and Orpheum so it is prefect for a pre-show drink.
Great rotating beer selection and thumbs up to a welcoming team of servers
A beer lovers must. The selection here is great with a wide range of beers. The staff is attentive with great advice if youre unsure or if youre overwhelmed with the options. MUST STOP BY.
Impressive rotating selection of beers on tap with a very friendly staff. Great hangout in the Civic Center area.
Great selection of small craft brews. Theres usually something good and interesting to eat.
Great little bar. 20 beers on tap (good selection), good vibe, and good bottle selection.
Superb service. Great selection
Only visited once but it was too noisy. Went there for informal business and could barely hear my colleague
Great bar with great service!
Nice staff, great selection of beer. Great service too
Great neighborhood beer bar, excellent rotating selection and friendly staff
About two dozen specialty beers on tap at a good price point ($6-$7/beer). Friendly service too!
You can buy individual bottles and cans to take home and sample yourself, always cheaper than in house. Great when you want one more, but have to run!
Tap menu was solid but not fantastic. Bottle list was great.
Best beer selection in downtown and you can buy bottles to take out at discount! Awesome.
Big beer selection, but pretty sterile vibe.
Good brew and a nice atmosphere. Music wasnt too loud so we could actually talk easily.
I am a long time patron and have never been disappointed with friendly staff, great beers and tremendous conversations!
Good venue for some post work beers
