San Francisco is recognized not only for its culinary scene but also for its significant role in cocktail culture. The article highlights key cocktail bars that embody this legacy, including bars that offer innovative and curated drink menus using unique ingredients and local produce. Notable mentions include a bar above Mister Jiu's, known for its seasonal cocktails and scenic views, and True Laurel, celebrated for its award-winning cocktails and artisanal food offerings. Together, these venues reinforce the city's reputation as a premier cocktail destination.
If the bar isn't already reserved for a private event - which happens often, so be sure to check the bar's website ahead of time - order a drink and either settle into a velvet-lined booth or head to the windows for a view of Grant Street's lanterns and, if you're lucky, a peek of the Bay Bridge down Commercial Street.
True Laurel is a front-runner in the cocktail award circuit even outside of San Francisco. Its cocktails showcase esoteric spirits and highlight local produce amid an artfully curated backdrop.
