Great bar. Great ambience and music playing, two pool tables and a smoking patio

Dog friendly neighborhood bar with a small back patio and pool table. Late night HH is a great idea. You can bring your own food. Trivia on Mondays is a lot of fun. Lots of TVs so a solid spot for sports. Order a Guinness for a meat shamrock surprise!

Great Service & music. Proper cocktails & a huge local beer selection.

I get it. I know things have changed with the pandemic and the virus. I remember visiting here back in 2019 before my life fell apart drastically and this city felt so much better and welcoming. Fast forward to a week ago, I decided to revisit the sunset area since it held a special place in my heart but I feel that San Fran has broken my heart. Say what you want but I got the J&J just because I thought it was the best option for me as in terms of a vaccine and I also wanted to protect myself and everyone around me as well as have my life back. Apparently when I visited here they required proof of vaccination via the vaccine card (and yes, every bar around the area was requiring that too which made sense) but when I presented it they said I needed a second dose (which ONLY applies to the messenger RNA vaccines) for a vaccine that is only approved for one dose which was disappointing since I didn’t get vaccinated only to get turned down and have the San Francisco experience that I had the last time. Needless to say I’m disappointed that the Johnson & Johnson vaccine is not recognized here but if you had the Pfizer or Moderna you’re good! All in all, I do hope the pandemic gets in check so we don’t have to go this route again but nonetheless San Fran let me down. I’m hoping one day when I get back this will all be a memory and things will be better.

Nailed it. And Guinness on draught!

I live in the area, and this bar is my go-to on Irving. Great drinks, great service, solid vibe. Will continue to frequent with friends. 🙏🏼

Loved the vibe and energy of the place while watching the champions league finals here. The crowd was awesome and bartender was really friendly

Solid sports bar in the inner Sunset. Good draft list, and good place to catch a Warriors game.

Friendly staff, free poll, good vibes

Perfect example of a neighborhood bar. Cozy, came on a Monday night for trivia to check it out. However....trivia doesn't start til 9pm. We didn't get home til midnight. The trivia night must be meant for people in the service industry or youths, those of us in the mid thirties 9-5 crowd struggled haha. Would absolutely come back to the bar for a drink, but I need to keep searching for a regular trivia night.

Dope spot. Comfortable feel like a neighborhood dive bar but way cleaner and sophisticated.

Cute dive bar with cute outside with warm heaters tv and dog friendly. Lots of tvs and two pool tables inside. Decent priced drinks, not too pricey.

Good whiskey selection. The bar tender was on point as was the music selection.

Pretty incredible "dive bar" that has a lively crowd and ample space for groups.

Awesome experience... Random girl with a dog stole a friends purse... I think the tables are overpriced... Cool selfie station... Will def be going here again...

Great sports bar. Perfect place to relax. Mondays are quiet. Took my son there for his 21st birthday. Staff is outstanding.

The drinks, the food, and the entertainment here are top notch. Had an awesome evening here with my friend. Played ping pong with the pros and enjoyed some tasty food.

Last week I with a group of my friends had fun here after work. Nice place. Everything looks clean. A big selection of appetizers. We ordered a lot of food and our bill wasn't so expensive. Friendly stuff. You can make photos on their decor wall or play in pin pong. I really liked their atmosphere.

Friendly service with very good selection of beer and hard liquor. Place is clean and comfortable seating. Had a nice barebottle IPA.

I have been going to this bar once every week or two for the last year, and enjoyed the bar and especially the back patio immensely because I could bring my dog there and enjoy a beer or two while watching a game. Unfortunately however, they recently hired a new bartender that decided immediately that she did not like me, and has since decided that my dog is no longer allowed because of her breed (she’s a pit bull mix), even though she had been with me to the bar many, many times and never caused any problems. This is quite frankly completely unacceptable to me on a number of levels, and I will never patronize this establishment again. There are far better bars within a block of this place, and while they do not have patios, the rudeness with which myself, my guest and my dog were treated, after being a regular there for more than a year, and always, no matter what tipping well over 20% (I have worked at many bars and other customer-service facilities all over the United States) is inexcusable and makes this bar a no-go indefinitely.

Rude staff, called ahead and asked if they were doing karaoke. They said yes. drove thirty minutes to have a waitress lecture us about just walking into a bar. Not worth your time.

I was very impressed with the covid safety of the outdoor parklet. They have a system where you can sit and order drinks if you bring food from a nearby restaurant. We ordered from Manna across the street and were able to get seated at Blackthorn while we waited for our food. The waitress was very helpful, letting us know about each beer we were interested in and which ones were similar. She wore a mask the whole time and presented our beers in plastic cups on a tray. They had a TV playing sports and our dogs were comfortable in the seating area with us. Definitely looking forward to going back again and getting a bit of that "normal" feeling during the pandemic.

Always a fun place to enjoy a drink! Pool tables for those who like to play, plenty of seats (inside or outside) and bartenders who know how to make every drink 🍸 Go and enjoy!

Great bar, upscale Vibe, but not stuffy. Large selection of whisky & draft beer. Big smoking patio out back.

This place can be cool depending on who your bartender is. The Irish "Karen" that works here perpetuates an inescapable cycle of: bad mood --> rude to everyone --> customers would rather go to Yancy's --> customers love Yancy's
