    Two Irish coffees made at the exact same time, both very different.
    Mary H.

    Worst Irish coffee I ever had. From the photo you could see one looks like hot water with whiskey and the other is burnt coffee. Also, ran out of one type of whiskey and added a different type in ... neither of which were Jamison's. Shitty drinks plus a shitty attitude equals zero stars.

    Quiet and clean

    The fish and chips were crispy and delicious. The bartender was busy with the cash register. There was only one other guy drinking ice cold beer. The place is quiet and very clean. It is in a nice neighborhood on Irving St. They a lot of specials for the day

    Spice Bag

    Beer selection here is small but okay, service is decent, a good ambiance as well but their spice bag is ass for 18$. I've never had such moist fries, though the fried chicken and the spice on the fries was decent. Heard people in here being excited earlier about the corned beef tacos so if I ever feel inclined to try anything else here I would go with that. No hate to the establishment and the staff, but if the spice bag is your mainstay I would maybe focus on QC. It's slow as hell and I was the only person here ordering food, so I would really expect better.

    Quick dinner and drinks with my husband since we were in the Outer Sunset neighborhood, we decided to try their Fish & Chips and Classic Burger with fries and draft beer. Food was alright, nothing too out of the ordinary. I like the fish & chips from another pub better as the batter on this one is a bit soggy. The bartender was nice. 3.5 stars.

    Trivia nights on Wednesdays!! Cozy place, friendly staff, Guinness on tap, and a fireplace in the back. What's not to like?

I'm so glad we did, it instantly lived up to the curiosity. The vibe here is exactly what you want from a brewery. It's unique, cool, and laid-back, with plenty of character and a strong sense of community. It feels welcoming whether you're popping in for one drink or planning to hang out for a while. The beer selection is great, with a nice variety of styles to choose from. Everything we tried was well crafted and enjoyable, making it easy to find something that fits your taste whether you like lighter beers or something a bit bolder. The space itself really adds to the experience. There's a relaxed energy that makes it a great place to meet friends, take a break while exploring the neighborhood, or just enjoy a good beer in a comfortable setting. Great atmosphere, good beer, and an all-around enjoyable experience. We'll definitely be back and are glad we finally stopped in.

All in all though, if you're not gluten free, paying this money for beer that's a little flat is probably not your best choice. Also, check the price before you buy a flight, they charged us an astronomical price. And the bags of chips are also exploitively priced.

    Kezar Pub is a solid, spacious neighborhood spot with a standard bar feel and a decent vibe. I…read morestopped in while waiting for my daughter's class at the Sharon Art Studio, specifically looking to catch the NBA playoffs. It's generally a good place to watch a game because they have several TVs, but during my visit, they were showing way too much baseball. Having multiple screens on baseball was a bit boring; they definitely need to prioritize the NBA more when the playoffs are on. The pub food is good, and I noticed that the burgers and sandwiches are surprisingly priced lower than the wings. On the recommendation of my server, I opted for the Philly Cheesesteak over the Fish & Chips. The cheesesteak was okay--not the best I've had, but certainly not the worst--and it was quite large and filling. The fries were crispy and well-seasoned, though ultimately a bit mid-tier. Service can be spotty at Kezar, but it was perfectly fine during this latest visit. Overall, it's a reliable Haight-Ashbury staple if you're looking for a filling meal and a place to catch some sports, provided they have the right game on the screen.

    I went to the Kezar Pub with friends and my 12 year old son to eat some wings and watch the World…read moreCup qualifier games. When we arrived the front of the bar was packed with soccer fans. However, the game we wanted to watch was being shown in the back of the bar and they had the nerve to charge $20 a head! In order for you to go to the bathroom you will need to go through the back. When I walked to the back there were like 4-5 people tops on the benches watching the game I wanted to watch while the front bar was packed. I'm not a bar owner but wouldn't it make more sense to show all the games for free while people spent money on drinks and food through out the bar. The waitress was also not good she gave us a thumbnail size of ranch for an order of wings. She also got our drinks wrong and when you ask her for more ranch it also came with a side of attitude. Needless to say I'm never going back to the Kezar Pub I didn't like the ambiance it was small dark and cramped plus they only showed some of the games for that day and when we asked to put another game we wanted to watch on the small TV (That was free) they said that the fire stick is not working. So the Kezar Pub does NOT show all the games. I give them 2 stars for the homie that was guarding the door to the pay per view section yes, there was a security guard charging $20 to go to the other empty room and he was so sympathetic he was like yeah bro "I know it's some BS I know but u can catch the score if you like." A real one.
