Solid drinks for a reasonable price point and atmosphere. We stopped by here after a happy hour nearby on a Friday. It wasn't too crowded inside, but outside was full. We were easily able to sit at a booth area inside. We got a lychee martini and espresso martini. When we read some past reviews before coming here, people had mentioned a pistachio espresso martini drink, but we didn't see that on the menu. For $14, the martinis were solid. I love a good lychee martini and this one didn't disappoint. My partner's espresso martini was a bit too sweet for our liking though. It was great for the first few sips, but by the end of the drink it was overwhelmingly too sweet. Overall, I liked the vibe of this place and enjoyed our drinks. I would come back here for a casual drink with friends, and maybe check out their outside area in the back. read more

Came here to celebrate a birthday and we were able to reserve part of the outdoor back area, which was perfect for a group. Atmosphere Campus Bar is a super cute spot with outdoor seating. I can imagine it being great on a warm day in the city. Since we came at night, we ended up sitting around the fire pits, which made it cozy and fun. What I Tried Spicy margarita Espresso martini Lychee martini (sipped from a friend's) The Experience The drinks were pretty average overall, but not too pricey from what I remember. The service made up for it though, the staff came by often to check in and make sure we had drinks, which was really nice. Also loved that they let us bring our own food, which was fab for a birthday hangout. Final Thoughts This is a great spot for group celebrations since you can reserve tables and even bring in your own food. I'd come back again if someone suggested it, especially for another group outing. read more

When the weather is nice, Campus is a go-to spot for drinks on their outdoor patio. It's one of the bigger outdoor patios in the Marina, and is dog friendly which is always a plus. They also have like 5-6 beers on tap, with my go to being the 805. The drinks are stiff and fairly priced given the neighborhood. Casa Migos is their standard tequila for a tequila sodas, and I'm all for it. The bartenders all have been awesome and we've enjoyed our multiple visits here. The outdoor area has its own bar, but it's not open everyday, usually weekends though. Plenty of TVs and seating make it a good spot to watch a sports game in an outdoor setting. They don't serve food but they partner with Norcina, which you can order off the QR code and have it brought to you. The offerings are Italian food, pizza, and wings. read more

Campus - Super duper burgers - Lounges Near Me - San Francisco, California

Avoid Campus Bar in San Francisco. I bought two Diet Cokes and was walking out when the bouncer aggressively knocked the cups straight out of my hands, sending them onto the ground. No warning, no explanation--just unnecessary aggression. If there's a rule about drinks leaving the bar, that's fine, but physically slapping something out of a customer's hand is completely unacceptable. It was rude, unprofessional, and honestly shocking behavior from someone representing the business. A simple "you can't take drinks outside" would have solved the situation instantly. Instead, the bouncer chose to escalate things for no reason. Places like this forget that basic respect toward customers matters. Based on this experience alone, I would strongly recommend going somewhere else. There are plenty of bars in San Francisco that know how to treat people without resorting to this kind of behavior. read more

This place was a solid bar. The layout made it easy to chat with people. They had connect four and jenga which was super fun to play. I like that they had a fall themed cocktail menu to choose from. Bartenders were friendly and fun. read more

The bouncer's behavior was completely unacceptable. We were leaving with Diet Cokes in to-go cups and when he told us drinks couldn't leave, we explained they were non-alcoholic. His response was to violently punch the drink out of my husband's hands and aggressively grab the drinks from my sister-in-law. Completely aggressive and unhinged behavior over two sodas. Really disturbing to see staff act like this. read more

Cocktails here are splendid. The crowd of people who come in are not. Lol but I like the security guards because they keep everyone in check! There's an outdoor patio, indoor seating, and they got foot on their menu too I believe. This is a perfect pre-game hangout or a place for chill vibes. The fire pits outdoors are so clutch. read more

Best bar in the Marina District! Love the large outdoor patio with fire pits, picnic tables, and flat screens.

Such a fun spot! The front bar is nice and spacious with tables, stools, and plenty of standing room. The back patio also offers more space. The drinks were good and had such good prices I was surprised. Good place to come with a group! read more

I'm so glad we stumbled upon Campus after brunch, because it just might be my perfect bar. Initially, my group of 5 grabbed a cozy high-top table inside, directly across from the bar. The (very friendly) bartender came over to take our orders and told us about the quirky decor (there are taxidermy deer (?) butts on the bar wall). I ordered an Aperol Spritz and my friends got Espresso Martinis and a Grapefruit Spritz. The drinks were ready very quickly and my Aperol Spritz came out perfect. The Espresso Martinis were unfortunately too creamy/foamy, but very cute looking, with little flowers on top. While we enjoyed our first round, we noticed that people kept going in and our through a back door, and that's how we discovered Campus's awesome back patio. This outdoor seating area is SO cute, with a huge mural of flowers and insects, plenty of different seating options, fire pits, TV screens, and turf on the ground. It's also incredibly dog-friendly, and there were even water bowls already out for them. The atmosphere was happy/laid-back, perfect for either a group gathering or a date. We stayed for one more round, but I would totally return! read more

I hadn't noticed this sports bar on Chestnut myself. There was an event for the marathon in SF this year. You could get a free drink by showing your medal. I got the virgin Moscow mule sippy in a mason jar. It was tangy and I saw runners at the event. Interesting sports bar. read more

What a great find! For as many times as I've been out in the Marina, I've somehow never stopped in Campus before. When we arrived at about 9 PM on a Saturday night, the inside was pretty packed and loud, which was to be expected. However, we lucked out and found a perfect table at one of the several fire pits in the outdoor area out back. I really loved the outdoor area, and it's what kept me here for about three enjoyable hours. The service outside was pretty sporadic, and unfortunately, you're not allowed to place orders yourself at the outdoor bar. But I found that the bar inside was surprisingly easy to order at despite the crowd, and the bartender inside was friendly and attentive, so service ended up not being much of an issue. I really enjoyed the Cucumber Gimlet and Campus Old Fashioned, and the Peach Hot Toddy my partner had was a great drink to sip on outside. I would love to see a bit more variety in cocktail options, but regardless - I will be back to Campus soon! read more

Campus - Cucumber gimlet - Lounges Near Me - San Francisco, California

We were looking for a chill place to hang out with our wedding party and their partners after our wedding in the Presidio (the venue closed at 10PM). Most of the group aren't big drinkers so we were really struggling to find a place with a reasonable F&B minimum for ~20 of us. Campus was really responsive over email, easy to work with, and service was friendly the day of. We had a fire pit designated to us outside and it was the perfect, low key environment we were looking for. As they got more crowded, it did take a little longer to get our drink orders in & drinks delivered -- but totally understand it was partially our fault (we arrived late and coincided with another large party arriving). We arrived after the restaurant they're partnered with was closed (I think you could order pastas and stuff to be delivered?) but they had chips and nuts, and welcomed outside food which was lovely after a long day. We ended up getting pizza from The Tipsy Pig next door and bringing it over. :) read more

Fabulous venue with the best drinks and atmosphere! This is our go to place! Would recommend

Went here yesterday with a friend for a cocktail. The outdoor area was really nice with seats and fire pits. It was a little chaotic because there was an event going on and when we scanned the QR code only food popped up no beverages. So we moved back to the front to sit at the bar. Drinks were great, along with the service. There was a regular crew there watching the game having a good time. I would definitely return to watch a sports event here. It's also nice because it doesn't have like a sports bar vibe but totally would watch a game there with good cocktails. read more

Came here midday when it was nice and sunny out. The outdoor area was chill, the overall ambiance was cool. But my drink was literally half ice and I still can't believe the bartender wasn't embarrassed handing this to me. read more

This is a review for their bouncer, G something. She's a female with face tattoos. I get to this place to meet a group of 8 friends, all over the age of 30. I told her I don't have my ID but I have a photo of it and she wouldn't let me in. She said no digital IDs or any kind are allowed for anyone. It was 7 pm so a little ridiculous but fine rules are rules right? Well wrong. Because ONE minute after that conversation some lady with her 50 year old mom (I know because I heard her say her mom was 50) walks in and says she doesn't have a physical ID but shower her a photo of her ID. and she let her in?? Are you kidding me lol. I asked her kindly if I could also show her my ID and she said "YOURE NOT GETTING IN" Talk about a power trip and talk about discrimination. I am really not one to ever write bad reviews but I honestly have never had such a bad experience with someone and I don't think she should be working at a friendly neighborhood establishment. read more

Awesome place to hang out with friends on a Sunday afternoon. We came here on a mini celebration and decided to stick around for a bit. The back part of this bar is great. Theres plenty of seating and a fire to sit around if you're cold. Theres even games to play. We made our way back inside later into the evening and made friends with the super friendly bartender that was playing our song request. All the drinks were made amazingly. Overall great experience here and a great location to spend a Sunday with friends. read more

Campus is our go-to bar and Lauren makes it a wonderful experience for us every time! She is so sweet and makes the BEST drinks

Super cute, love how spacious this spot is! The back patio has a couple fire places but you need a reservation for those. We got the Christmas tree-quila shots and they were pretty tasty! They also had cute holiday cups for some of the holiday drinks, super cute. I think it's a primary spot for college sports so a lot of people were watching the game. read more

Love this timeless bar! The inside is cozy and fun. Lots of friendly regulars. Late at night on the weekends, it's vibey with cool music. The outside patio is so cute, and they even have games like giant jenga and cornhole. At night, it's fun to cozy up at a firepit under the twinkling lights. Their cocktails are tasty, yet approachable, and they always change it up. Bartenders are always friendly. read more

Was here a couple hours mid day on a week day, chill ambiance and nice patio / yard in the back. Bartender was attentive and swift. She even came across the street after I left to bring me my keys I accidentally left behind. Very cool of her, saved my night. read more

A group of us came for post-holiday dinner drinks around 10pm on a Friday night. Seating was limited along the bar but there was plenty of standing room when we got there. It got more crowded later on but the atmosphere remained more chill than dancey. I ordered a Grapefruit Spritz which arrived quickly and tasted exactly like sparkling grapefruit juice. The bartender was super friendly and came to check on us a few times. I also really enjoyed the 2000s throwback music videos playing on all the screens. Overall, a laid back, fun option for a group of millennials going out in the Marina. read more

This is a cute lil cocktail bar that we stumbled upon for afternoon drinks! I got this margarita which was so delish that I got one (or maybe two) more. They didn't skimp out on the alcohol because the drinks definitely tasted strong. The only thing is it's a tight space with very limited seating - a couple booths plus the bar and some outdoor seating. Our group of 4 had seats at the bar, and then we got up for a second and another group immediately slid in ha! It does make the atmosphere inside a bit hectic when there's a lot of people grabbing drinks. read more

My favorite hang out spot in the marina. It's interesting how a lot of people never knew this spot existed. Hahaha. The people here are super down to earth and pleasant to be with. Obviously if you're being difficult and disrespectful every after a few reminder or warning, you'll most definitely will get kicked out since they have securities that are on top of their game. Cocktails are all super nice and pretty so that's a plus but overall, during this pandemic, campus is the freaking go to spot for hangouts and quick cocktails read more

Went here in late December. Loved the Christmas-themed drinks. I got the Sleigh Ride Sparkle and Merry Mule. Both were exceptional. The bartender was nice and served us quickly. Lastly, I really loved the aesthetic of the bar. They had very sophisticated and festive decor. I'll definitely be back! read more

You are definitely not on campus... At least not the kind of campus I know of. This place is a great place to chill in the afternoon and start that evening early. I came with some friends and stayed for a bit was tried the Huck Finn. It is made with jam and other berry flavors and it was one of the best drinks I have ever had. You barely taste the alcohol and it all you taste of the tasty berry flavors. Might be a bit sweet for some people but if you are into sweet drinks, this it he drink for you. The bartender tasted every drink he made which is something that I don't see anymore. The place is very chill with bar seating and some booths on the side. A cool place to relax and chat with some friends. If you are in the Marina and looking for a place to chill, I'd suggest Campus as a contender. read more

Love Campus, one of the BEST bars in San Francisco. Didn't know this but they have a back outside patio that's amazing. Plenty of fire pits for those chilly SF days. I especially like the Bartender Katie, I feel like we both have a real spiritual connection. I look at her and she looks at me and we both know there is something there. I can't explain it but it's like magic. Will definitely be coming back read more

appalled by the service. we were trying to hit Campus for a couple drinks while waiting for our dinner reservations. high level, the service was awful. i've worked in the service industry and understand the pains of rude customers. our waitress/host was unnecessarily and outwardly so rude - this may not reflect the character of the rest of the staff. when we arrived, the bouncers were making small talk while we waited for a spot to open up. we can totally understand that they mistakenly forgot to inform us that we needed to order food with our drinks - per new COVID mandates, this has been a regular theme across a lot of bars. however once we were seated, the waitress took our drink orders only without any mention or asking if we wanted to order food. she comes back 10 minutes later and says they're doing last call for food and demands we need to order full meals, burgers. we asked if we could order fries since we were unaware we had to order burgers with our drinks (mind you, none of the surrounding tables had food and only drinks). apparently the bouncers were supposed to tell us at the front. instead, the waitress/host calls us liars and makes a scene asking us to leave. this is no way to treat paying customers - especially a party of 6 that are generous drinkers and would've out paid any burgers if she let us have our fries. read more
