    Love this bar! The staff members are super friendly, they are dog-friendly (YAY!), and the drinks are great. I love that they also have a juke box and fireplace. It feels cozy and comfortable with a diverse mix of patrons. Def a place to stop in for a friendly neighborhood drink- or three ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I think this is the best bar in the Castro. The music is excellent, the staff are very friendly and make great drinks. And sometimes they ply people with popcorn which is always a hit with me. Itโ€™s such a lovely little neighborhood bar where you can actually have a conversation with people. A great place for a date.

    Just walked by and saw a notice of application for change of ownership (photo posted). I really hope the new owners keep the awesome chill vibe this place had.

    Hands down my favorite bar in the Castro. Friendly and nice bartenders, great music on the jukebox, sports or random movies on the tvโ€™s, dog friendly, nice owners, and usually not packed. Specialty top shelf cocktails, your standard mixed drink menu, and decent draft and bottled beer selection. Recommend for a quick drink during the day, a mid-date stop for some conversation, beginning a night, or as the name suggests, last stop.

    Local feel, good prices and classic music with a jukebox. $3 beer. Enough said.

    Very chill spot within walking distance of the party bars. Definitely fitting of its name! I didn't order anything on my quick visit, but would definitely go back if I wanted something quiet near Castro.

    The queer bar for everyone. Itโ€™s my favorite neighborhood spot on an afternoon, late night and everything in between. The bartenders are friendly and warm, the crowd is a spectrum of young, old, eclectic and everything you come to love about San Francisco. Its always easy to talk to new folks or have a chill night with your date. And I love that Itโ€™s got an active juke box that people actually use ๐Ÿ‘ all the charm of a dive bar but verrry good cocktails, daily specials, clean floors, up kept and not grimey at all

    I dropped in to Last Call a few days ago for the first time. Its a small and cozy bar with friendly patrons and a knowledgeable bartender. I was impressed with the collection of whiskey, tequila and gin on the shelves. Had a quick drink and was on my way. Made me wish I had arrived earlier into the evening to try their spicy margarita. Would definitely recommend!

    They have the fire place on during the winter , so comfy and cute

  • 4/5 DjGoSF 4. 1 year ago on Google
    Small bar if you want to go with just one person. If you go with a group of people it could get a little crowded.

  • 5/5 Harold S. 7 months ago on Google
    The best bar I have been to in quite some time! A unique take on many classic cocktails, plus a great beer selection. The ambiance is fantastic.

  • 5/5 Christopher R. 7 months ago on Google
    This is my go-to spot in the Castro for a well crafted cocktail, good conversations and fun. I always end up meeting with and talking to so many random people. And the fact that I can order a Paper Plane, Naked and Famous, Aviation, or a Last Word with the bartenders not blinking in confusion is priceless - CJ in particular is the BEST. Bonus points for the content on their TVs where you never know what random movie on DVD will be playing from Death Becomes Her to Rat Race to random horror flicks.

    Last Call is a real gem of a neighborhood bar. Their drinks are top notch, reasonably priced, and the jukebox never disappoints.

  • 5/5 Erdmann R. 9 months ago on Google
    This is a great little bar in the Castro with a cozy atmosphere. Staff is friendly and chatty. You can tell Pat's know each other. It's a great place to relax for a drink.

  • 5/5 Sherriff S. 7 months ago on Google
    Cute and cozy bar. Can be crowded weekends. Legit, reasonably priced cocktails and beers.

  • 5/5 Danni C. 1 year ago on Google
    Been here three times and each time they have been friendly and welcoming!

  • 5/5 Bryce C. 1 year ago on Google
    Just discovered this tiny gem with comforting, dim ambience and classy cocktails and classic 80s and 90s movies always running.

  • 5/5 Emilio P. 1 year ago on Google
    literally the best bar ever. good cocktails and the best vibes. 1000000/10

  • 5/5 Ben M. 1 year ago on Google
    Negronis? Top shelf whiskeys? They got the things. The front open greening is a Feng shui plus plus. Drink here.

  • 4/5 Max G. 2 years ago on Google
    Up until my latest experience, this bar was a 5 star place. Iโ€™m by no means a regular, but I have been several times now and have always had a great time. The vibes are chill, welcoming, and their drinks are great. Whenever I have friends in town or the group doesnโ€™t know where we should go, I always suggest Last Call. But this most recent time I went, our experience with the bartender wasnโ€™t the best. My friends and all (all POC) were met with pushback from the bartender regarding our IDs. Iโ€™m never upset when someone asks for my ID, but the bartender was saying snarky comments about our IDs being from different states and straight up saying to one of my friends, โ€œthis looks fake, but Iโ€™ll take it.โ€ We tried chatting to her about how we all met in college, but she brushed us off in an unfriendly way that Iโ€™d never experienced before by the bartenders here. I noted that all of us were POC because the encounter led us to a discussion about how 3 of them often get their IDs checked and get rude comments which can often be attributed to Asian infantilisation. It threw a wrench in our night and my perspective of the place โ€” that even a great place has its faults.

    I'm so happy that someone jumped in to keep this gem of a bar open. Tiny bars are my favorite in SF, and there really aren't many of them... This and the Black Horse London Pub are the only 2 that jump to mind, and that has a similar story of a client taking the reins to keep it from closing. That's heritage!

  • 4/5 Micah R. 1 year ago on Google
    It has a cozy feel, almost like a dive bar filled with old friends. I didn't try any drinks, but the certainly looked good.

  • 5/5 Taylor L. 1 year ago on Google
    What a cute place! Pretty small but wasnโ€™t packed at all on a Saturday night. Great chill vibe if youโ€™re just looking to get a great drink and hang without the bumpin music of Castro ๐Ÿ˜‚

  • 4/5 Sharon H. 5 years ago on Google
    Great spot San Francisco with cool vibe. I live the art and old style bar, really cool. Not many bars are so spacious. The drinks were perfect and the staff has always been super friendly to me and my husband. The mural in the back bar above the bar is stunning! Love this place!

  • 5/5 Vike K. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place to grab a quick drink. Plus they know how to pull a good Guinness here.
