    Anina in Hayes Valley is such a fun spot! The drinks were really good, and the service was fast and efficient, which made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The vibe is lively and cute, perfect for hanging out and enjoying a great cocktail. Definitely try to go early though--it gets crowded quickly. Overall, a great place for good drinks and a fun atmosphere!

    Amazing service! Love the beer and the punch bowl so much! Patio is great - we had an amazing time playing cards

    Great vibes and great drinks! We came with a group of 7 and they have plenty of seating available. There's the inside and also an outdoor patio which has a lot of longer tables and even a taco stand. We got one of the punch bowls and I also got the seafoam spritz. The drink was really good! Nice and sparkling without being too sweet. I love the taste of elderflower and this was paired really well in the drink. Definitely a fun place to hang out!

    Updating to add that the second to last time I bought drinks here, I was overcharged by $10. Not sure what's up with bars in SF, but they really need to be more attentive and make sure they're entering numbers correctly. The last time I stopped in for drinks, I told the staff about the overcharge, but rather than taking the time to help me resolve the issue, they just said to contact them later. To be fair, I get it, it's always busy at the bar, and they have a business to run, but I feel like part of running a good business is paying attention to the small details and ensuring every patron leaves with a positive experience.

    Really like the vibes at Anina! Very centrally located on Hayes, this bar is always very lively. I've come here for both corporate events (they have a nice outdoor area) and with larger groups of friends. The punch bowl is a fun experience for sure, and the service is reasonable.

    Drinks were unfortunately not it, was the first time everyone left taking only a few sips of their drinks. All three went overboard with the sweetness level. They do have a lot of patio space, good for big groups -- was surprisingly quiet on a friday evening.

    Really cute cocktail bar in Hayes. We stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for a quick drink and we loved sitting in the outdoor patio, people watching on a gorgeous day. The cocktails were great and I loved Salad Days which reminded of a boozy green juice. Anina has a great, relaxed vibe perfect for a daytime drink and the location is super convenient on Hayes St.

    Stumbled upon Anina when I was out wondering around Hayes Street on Saturday! It had really good day vibes with the outdoor patio and open bar area. We came in to grab a drink and relax after exploring the area. The drinks were great and I was surprised that the mezcal margarita wasn't overpowering. The bartenders were great and friendly and provided helpful suggestions.

    Anina is a great happy hour spot in Hayes Valley. Their espresso martini's are bomb and hit the spot. Very laid back and casual atmosphere here, good happy hour prices!

    Pretty good place to chill with friends, but look at the before and after of my cocktail. Look how much ice is left in my drink. My god.

    Vernal Pools

    We stopped in Anina during our first time exploring Hayes Valley and found their large outdoor patio super inviting. Although they were super busy and only had two bartenders on staff, both bartenders were super friendly and attentive and provided great service. This place has a nice low key vibe and their reasonable prices for cocktails with good ingredients is a plus also. My partner ordered the Vernal Pools while I got the Fool's Gold. The Vernal Pools had a nice combination of flavors with the tequila, apple, ginger and chili coming together nicely, although the drink didn't have as much of a heat kick as we were expecting. The Fool's Gold was also nice and refreshing, with the whisky, turmeric, ginger, and Benedictine providing a nice light but also complex flavor.

    Had a lovely time at Anina for drinks with my friends. We went at around 6:30PM on a Saturday and it was filled ! We originally tried to sit outside because they have such a lovely outdoor area, but it was so crowded and the acoustics were so bad we couldn't even hear each other. Luckily there was space in their indoor section which was surprisingly much quieter. I got not one, but two Royal Scams, a fruity yet very balanced and acidic drink. Definitely one of the best drinks in the city ! Can't wait to go back, but probably on a less busy day.

    Ask the Community - Anina

    Is it dog friendly during the day?

    I've seen dogs inside and outside, I even saw a pet parrot outside once. I'd say it's safe to bring your dog outside especially during the day!

    Can I bring my kid with me?

    No, the website says "ALL GUESTS MUST BE 21+ - NO EXCEPTIONS"

    Is it Dog friendly?

    Not sure, but presumably so. There was a bulldog there that probably belongs to either the owners or a staff person, and the dog was just lounging around inside.

    Are there food trucks every night? Any way to find out what kind of food and when it is there?

    The answer is NO! The management team at Anina book Pop-Ups 2 to 3 times per week generally between Wednesday thru Sunday as a courtesy to improve the overall experience. For the days that we don't offer these extra services, the answer is simple...…

The atmosphere is very lounge like with chill vibes. Service is great.

    Lore's Wonderland escape room was a fun and delightfully whimsical experience. **This review is…read moremainly for the escape room, as we did not order any additional drinks outside of the escape room.** THE SPACE // Lore Speakeasy and Escape Room has cool themed decor everywhere, from the dimly-lit speakeasy/bar room in front, to the Middle Earth/Lord of the Rings-themed board game room, to the individual bathrooms, and of course the escape room's multiple Alice in Wonderland-themed rooms. Clearly a lot of effort went into building these rooms and evoking a certain vibe for each. THE ESCAPE ROOM // The puzzles in the escape room varied in difficulty - some required us to think a bit more, some required our observational skills to work harder, and others required a light level of physical skill/movement. We were perplexed a few times but never got stuck for too long, as the White Rabbit (played by Phoenix, the live actor/puzzle master) would jump in occasionally to provide clues over the speaker or in person. It took us about 1 hr 20 min to finish the entire escape room; I thought the pacing was good. THE [ESCAPE ROOM] DRINKS // Lore's escape room experience comes with "a flight of themed cocktails or mocktails, including "potion"-style drinks that are integrated into the experience as you progress", per the website. We got to choose one cocktail/mocktail option (Korean Cold Noodles) from a list on the website, and the other two drinks are pre-selected to supposedly fit into the Wonderland theme, with the flavors described online as "berry" and "peach". You can get both cocktail and mocktails for your party, in case some people want alcohol and others don't. We all enjoyed the flavor of the Korean Cold Noodles cocktail, which was refreshing and surprisingly a bit minty in the mocktail version. However, we didn't like the two other two pre-selected themed drinks as much. The "berry" drink gave us cherry cough syrup vibes, and the cocktail version of it was quite strong. The "peach" mocktail drink reminded me of canned fruit syrup; we also were missing the two cocktail versions, though we decided not to ask for them as the mocktail version already was less than impressive. One other missed expectation here was the size of the drinks that we received in the escape room. We were expecting full-sized cocktails, like what they serve in the speakeasy in front. Instead, we found out that the drinks are served in small "vials". Given the size of the drinks in the escape room, combined with us not even enjoying two out of the three drinks, I would preferred to go through the escape room without the drinks at all, and likely pay a bit less for the escape room then. OVERALL // I'd still recommend the escape room as a good one-time experience with a date/friends/family. Just don't expect too much from the included themed drinks! The speakeasy drinks on the main menu do sound unique/tasty, so I might come back again to try those sometime.

I was craving a refreshing craft cocktail and got one with the Green Emmanuelle. I liked the cardamom in the Beauty Mark as well that my partner ordered. We ordered shishito peppers and mushroom bahn mi sliders. The mushroom bahn mi sliders were amazing - the quality fillings and taste of the soft bun - I was unexpectedly hit with a bite of spice from maybe jalapeño seeds left but didn't sour my experience. The shishito peppers ended up being extremely spicy as well, those are usually just a few spicy and not the majority. The roasted lemon and salt was a wonderful combo but just too spicy to eat. However, the server very kindly removed it from our bill without us asking. We order the crostini because we were still hungry and that was an absolute hit. Delicious med-soft crostini with luscious berries and sweet honey. I didn't care my hands got sticky as it was soooo good! Great experience, I would be weary if the peppers as I'm a bit spice-intolerant but everything else was spot-on.

Definitely skip this $7 item that you could get at a circle k for $1.50 and it would taste fresher. You order when you walk in and someone delivers your order and then you're left to fend for yourself. We were able to locate some ketchup for the potatoes on our own. Nobody ever checked on us. This is the second place on this visit that's charging an extra 5% fee so that their employees can have a living wage and health insurance, which absolutely, every employee should have. With the prices they charge, they should already be able to do that, though. I read an article about this fee with many different names and I would rather pay a bit higher of a price and know the employees were taken care of than be surprised by this fee later. Two sandwich breakfasts, a mocha and a danish on top of tax and their healthy sf fee was $63. Steep for the quality we got. Won't be back.

The oysters also stood out, served with a unique sauce that was bright, refreshing, and had just a subtle kick of spice to whet the appetite. We also tried their signature burger. The beef patty was cooked perfectly, staying juicy without being dry. To finish, we ordered the Matcha Affogato. The matcha is slowly poured over the ice cream tableside, making for a fun little presentation and the perfect ending to the meal. The interior design is modern, thoughtfully designed, and aesthetically beautiful. There's also a spacious, bright outdoor patio.
