Came here for some drinks on a Sunday afternoon. There was live music that started at 6, which was good and not too loud. The outdoor seating was great, and the service was quick and friendly. Prices are reasonable and the drinks were great. We also tried the mac and cheese - it was sooo smelly but tasted pretty good. read more

Great ambiance. Fabulous outdoor seating area with turf and fake fires, live music, and two big willow trees. Highly recommend the deviled eggs. And on a cool night the warm olives hit. Great place to hang with friends or to enjoy a date. Servers are nice and food and drinks come quickly. read more

We sat outside for 5 minutes before the server came to take our order and we told him we were still looking at the menu. He told us to hurry up and order. When he came back we had our order ready and very calmly told him we would appreciate it if he were more courteous. He told us he wouldn't serve us and made us leave. I will never come back to Belle Cora and will be sure to NOT recommend it to anyone else. Awful experience. read more

Came here on a Friday evening to grab some wine. They also had live music on Fridays. Pretty chill bar and the outdoor seating was the best for San Francisco summers. The service was great and very helpful. read more

Great little spot to enjoy some wine and live music in a heated outdoor area! My group of 6 enjoyed multiple bottles of wine here and had a really nice time. I liked the sauvignon blanc a bit more than the pinot grigio, but they were both refreshing and easy to drink. Really friendly staff and good vibes all around, I would definitely come back to try some of their food offerings as well! read more

I was in the North Beach area for a friend's birthday dinner, but we decided to stop somewhere for happy hour beforehand. We stumbled on this place and absolutely loved the outdoor vibes and fire table seating. They also had a live band that was so much fun to listen to! We were able to seat ourselves easily and the servers were pretty nice about helping us get a fire started since it was chilly. We got a cheese board as well as the spritz specials to drink. Overall, super cute spot and I really had a great time!! read more

We were in the area for dinner but wanted to stop for a little happy hour so we stumbled on this place. What attracted me was the outdoor seating and they had a live band because it was Sunday! We sat where we wanted and we were helped quickly. We got a little cheese board to snack on and got the spritz to drink. Overall vibes of this place were immaculate. Busy with a great crowd and did the job of a happy hour. If you're in the area waiting for dinner this is a great place to kill some time. read more

Heat lamps. Music. Locals. Reasonably priced. Best outside area. Strangely good food. All that.

They need to carefully vet their bartenders. Coming to guests and giving them middle finger tying to rio them off is unacceptable read more

Belle Cora - This is the bartender that tried to rip us off to pay extra and middled fingered us - Wine Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Unfriendly staff, incorrect drink orders. Enough places to hang in north beach. Don't come here

I've been coming to this bar for several years and have always had positive experiences, which is why today's interaction during SantaCon was so disappointing. I was spoken to in a dismissive manner by a bartender and made to feel unwelcome, despite being of legal. The lady with the tattoo sleeves couldn't be more rude. read more

Horrible service from every bartender and server here. Our waiter in particular was very rude and wouldn't listen to our requests. Should seek another profession because customer service is not her specialty. read more

My husband and I saw an Instagram reel about Sotto Mare and made our way down to grab a table. It was a 45 minute wait for two people so we walked across the street to Belle Cora and found a pleasantly heated bench seat overlooking the street all lit up in color. The window to the wine bar was open so that we could listen to the gentle live music as we sipped this delectable wine in the ambiance of swaying foliage. The waitress was extremely helpful with our wine choice and made us comfortable with our kindness. read more

Belle Cora - Slightly spicy Spanish wine that was recommended to us and we forgot the name twice ‍ - Wine Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

On 10/18 I was actually across the street at Sotto Mare when I saw some young men, maybe teenagers, in bear costumes coming from what I'm assuming was the No Kings Rally, because they were carrying protest signs. They were clearly young men of color and were also wearing Arabic head dresses. They were quietly walking down the street when I noticed a 20 something yr old man at your establishment in the seated patio area, maybe having brunch with his GF and friends. I can only assume your patron was intoxicated when he began to loudly harass these young men, unprovoked, with racial slurs and taunts regarding Terrorist organizations. I was seated outside and could clearly hear him disrupting the street. The young men were taken by surprise and hurried on their way. But a few minutes later, with their pizza in hand, they calmly approached the man who was heckling them and politely asked him if he was the man yelling at them about Hamas and if so, if he'd like to have a conversation to dispel any fear or anger he might have at them. I remember because I was proud and quite impressed of these youths for approaching what could have been an inflammatory situation from a place of wanting to educate your patron in a calm and collected manner in order to facilitate a discussion and dialogue. What ensued after was very disappointing on the part of your staff and from a heightened and delicate optical perspective, could be interpreted as possible racial discrimination. When these youth approached your patron, never once did they raise their voices, nor did they enter any part of your private property. They remained on the sidewalk. Your staff member illegally told them that they were trespassing and that if they did not discontinue harassing your patrons (which ironically, was the opposite of what happened) staff would call the police, detain them and have them arrested. Never once did your staff member make any inquiries as to what had occurred and who said what. The children then continued on with their pizza. I attempted to call your facility several times when I returned home but was sent to voicemail each time. My question to you, hopefully as the owner or manager of this establishment, is whether you feel comfortable with your staff not only harboring a racist individual, but also harassing clearly Brown youth? As a born and bred POC myself from the Bay Area, I will tell you now that I am not comfortable ever patronizing your establishment, nor will I recommend it to anyone. Shame on you for propagating hate and prejudice. read more

A lovely wine bar in the heart of North Beach with outdoor seating around cute fireplaces and live music in the evenings! The vibes were so nice to sit around, get drinks, and chat with friends, although we sat right by the live music so it was a little hard to hear my friends. They also have $2 off all drinks after 9pm everyday! One thing to note is that their outdoor seating is open / first come first serve, which means you seat yourself and thus makes it difficult if it's busy and if you have a group. Also, their food menu is extremely limited and have small portions, so I would not recommend coming here if you're looking for dinner in addition to drinks (as my friends and I were unfortunately). Overall the ambiance was really nice though, so I would come back in the evening with a date or friends just for drinks and some small apps. read more

Came here after playing pickleball with a Hinge date because we wanted live music, and Belle Cora did not disappoint! They offer a warm, fun parklet and it was packed--we were lucky to get seated without a reservation! We split the Heirloom BLT (Applewood smoked bacon, heirloom tomatoes and romaine on ciabatta) and Sausage and Polenta ('Little City' Sicilian sausage with polenta, tomato sauce and Parmigiano-Reggiano) and some drinks. Everything was very good, and both entrees were $12 each--what a steal! I love how the beers were from local breweries. Service and atmosphere were perfect, will be back! read more

Belle Cora - Live music!! Saturday night - Wine Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

I've actually never eaten at this restaurant, but I've stopped here many, many times for a glass of wine. It's such an idyllic location with a cozy bar inside and a lovely patio facing the baby Italian delicacies across the street. This was always my favorite spot to hang when waiting for a table nearby or for a night cap after dinner. Staff was always friendly and service was attentive. I've since moved away from SF, but would definitely visit this spot again when I've got a thirst for a great glass of wine! read more

We came here for some beer and starters while waiting for our table next door. It was pretty quiet on Valentine's Day but there was a live band outside which was nice to hear. We got the raclette and olives. The raclette was a tad on the small side and tasted okay. The olives were served warm which I've never had before but kinda liked. We had two rounds of beer and our table was ready so this was a nice stop before dinner. Would come again with the live music being a big plus. read more

Great neighborhood hangout! Belle Cora has been a part of North Beach since 2015. I remember seeing them open up and thinking "Good luck to them!" because that location was not very kind to new businesses! Well, fast forward 6 years and Belle Cora is still there and going stronger every year! During the pandemic, when the city permitted outdoor sitting, Belle Cora's seating capacity almost doubled! They now have live music and comedy nights outside and that has made them a big hit with those of us who enjoy heated outside seating and good beer or wine. They have about 6 or 7 beers on tap and many bottled beers to choose from. Their wine collection is pretty good too. They offer wine from around the world including Sonoma and Napa. If you are not too hungry you have a good set of choices from their "Shared Plates" menu, and if you are hungry they offer a few choices including their 2020 award winning burger. I can't drink nearly as much as I could a few years ago, but I still enjoy a couple of beers off the tap while listening to live music and chatting with friends around a table or neighbors sitting on a table next to us. read more

Came here while we waited for a table at Sotto Mare and it was a lovely open seating wine bar with ample seating options. I liked sitting outside people watching and listening to the live music. In terms of wine options they don't. Have much by the glass and their wine list could be a bit better in my opinion. But it's a good spot for a quick drink. And their service was fast and efficient. read more

Live music, delicious food. Their double burger was absolutely delicious, and the brussels sprouts with bacon were big on flavor. Service was a bit scattered but we got all of our food in the end. A nice spot to sit outside and listen to jazz. There are heat lamps to keep you toasty on cool nights. read more

Good vibes to grab a drink and listen to live music, but their burger's patty was SO small - I had to squint to find it relative to the huge brioche bun! Their ingredients are high quality, but man, definitely the smallest patty I've EVER consumed (and for $15...) read more

Cool atmosphere with pretty good food. Service was a tad slow but I guess you expect it at a place like this. Got a table quickly which was nice, not a lot of food choices but I think this place is more for drinking than eating. Little bit of drama in the area but also to be expected in the area. All in all a nice time. Would probably come back. read more

First of all. You should check out Belle Cora! Cute and fun, with outdoor seating around tables that have has fireplaces integrated into the center. They have nice shared plates and a couple of main courses as well. I think my boyfriend and I tried almost every dish on the menu (and it was a very reasonable price) so I can definitely tell you what to get. For the shared plates, definitely try the raclette (not something I see a lot, fun to try the unique things!) and might as well add on the ciabatta, it goes well with the raclette. I would have liked to try the burrata, but maybe next time. For entrees, the lamb meatballs were nice, and the ricotta cheese was a nice touch. The Mezzemaniche Pasta in Meat Ragu is also great; it's very flavorful. We didn't realize but we went on a Monday, and they had trivia! It was really fun, the right amount of challenge, and didn't last too long (some trivia drags on!) read more

This place was awesome! We had a wine Wednesday and got the ciabatta roll and a bottle of white wine. There was plenty of seating inside and outside and there was a great band playing outside. The bar was quite empty but granted it was a Wednesday. The staff was also super friendly with great recommendations and very efficient with the service. read more

Stopped by becasue we heard live music around the corner, cute outside seating - benches, round mosaic tables & tables w fake fire inside. Ordered delicious Dying Sun Hazy IPA from Ghost Town Brewery in Oakland and since we were bit hungry and vegan options were limited, we ordered the impossible burger that did not come w anything else but just the burger for $14, the burger was actually good, it did have caramelized onions on the bottom which made it taste pretty good, no fries was a disjappointmenting tho to be honest. I was told that they do not sell fries at all so there you have it. Overall cute spot for a beer and some good live music but skip the food. CC accepted. read more

I had a serene experience here. The wine was tasty, and the almond snack was delicious. I cannot speak for the entrees as I did not try them. If you are in the area, it is worth stopping by and relaxing. read more

Decided to try Belle Cora based on a recommendation from a friend! They had great things to say about their burger and I'm definitely all about expanding my burger portfolio. Tried to phone in an order but got to a voicemail. Walked over and ordered in person and chose to wait while sipping a City Lights (?) beer. Service is fast and friendly and the outdoor seating is cute. They have heaters but it's in your best interest to dress warm. The beer was great, the food came before I finished my pint. Too bad you can't order alcohol to-go! I opted to get the Bergy Burger and the Pretzel Knot. Here are my thoughts: Bergy Berg -- I showed up intending to get a single patty but ended up getting double and adding bacon. No regrets. The bun was a bit burnt but it didn't affect the taste, just not aesthetically pleasing. The burger itself was impressive and checked all the right boxes: juicy, flavorful, indulgent in the best ways....it would have been great even at its most basic! I gobbled this bad boy mad quick and felt sad when it was all over. Pretzel Knot -- so good, but not really worth $4 in my opinion. What a tease! This does makes me curious about their Bavarian Pretzels. Overall, loved my experience. I'd love to go back and dine at their outdoor patio for a proper experience. read more
