10 Nightlife in The Castro That You Shouldn't Miss

August 12, 2021 Toi Mattera

Every neighborhood in San Francisco has its own personality, from the hippie chic of the Upper Haight to the hipster grit of the Mission. The Marina district boasts trendy bistros and postcard-perfect views of the Golden Gate Bridge, while Noe Valley offers quaint and quiet boutiques. Wave hello to the sea lions at Pier 39, and sample local cheese and charcuterie at the Ferry Building. Sit in on a yoga session in Dolores Park or marvel at the Dutch Windmill across from Ocean Beach.

Brewcade

Reviewed By FormerCaliBoy - Zurich, Switzerland

Located on Upper Market, Brewcade impressed me with their friendly staff, great selection of craft beers, and historical arcade games, and my favorite the Pinball machines! I was in bar and pinball heaven. I actually closed down the bar that night enjoying my beer and pinball. I certainly put this place as now my favorite spot in the Castro for late night craft beers, awesome pinball machines, and a great staff to boot! The other guests were friendly as well. What a fun evening out. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to the city to hang out here. Highly recommended!
