Small cozy speakeasy in Hayes with a very unique menu! The menu selection is small so you know every drink is thoughtfully made. I got a non alcoholic drink called the phony negroni and it was surprisingly so good!! It had flavors reminiscent of chocolate and caramel to me. The space is super small so they only let in parties 4 or smaller. but once you're inside, they don't rush you at all. There was one bartender the whole time we were there and she was super friendly and funny. Service was very fast despite her being the only person working. Would definitely recommend checking out if you're in the area and want a nice place to sit and chat with someone for a while :) read more

I was introduced to this place because Matthew is an drink artist. A friend of mine, who is a connoisseur of all liquids with a 21 or over requirement, is a regular here. One night, he raved about a gin old fashion. Needless to say, I had one. DAYAM. Nothing I've ever had before. Keep in mind, this place is tiny. Although there seems to be decent turnover, don't expect to get in immediately and don't bring a large group. read more

Inconsistent drinks, poor service by the gentleman behind the bar. Asked for waters bartender stated sure and walked away, bartender took a few shots of Mezcal, used the rest room then a few minutes later brought our waters a whole two steps over :) Wife ordered the Birds of Paradise, first edition she proclaimed was delicious. We ordered a second, drink was made post bartender shots and missing a few ingredients at that! Unfortunately the missing ingredients had a direct impact on the taste as well. Will not return due to service quality and inconsistent drinks. Note to self stay in the Smugglers Cove line next time and be patient!! read more

My friend suggested popping in here for cocktails before dinner for a "speak-easy" experience. It's actually connected to the infamous Nightbird but has its own incognito entrance around the corner on Linden St. The atmosphere and vibe is a dimly lit, intimate setting with room for maybe 15 people if even that. Their website and cocktail menu actually says they cannot accommodate parties larger than four which is fair for the tiny space here. There is more standing room than seating. The cocktails are quite fancy and unique but are wonderfully enjoyable. I savored my honeydew highball, but as more people piled in after 8, it was getting a little too cozy for us- so one and done for us. Bartenders are super busy but were friendly and attentive. Drinks are pretty pricey here. The average $20 cocktail price + the current "SF Mandate" of 6% + regular tax (almost 9%) comes out to be the price of a decent meal in Chinatown. I'd definitely swing by here again before dinner and definitely before I try Nightbird! read more

This place is hard to notice at night. The entrance is on a side street. Once inside, it's very small, but cozy. The vibes are intimate and cute. I'd come as a pair as there aren't a lot of seating. Maybe for post date night drinks? The service was really great and the bartenders make really tasty drinks. read more

The Linden Room was somewhat hard to find unless you know where to go: in the alleyway there's a black unassuming door and it looks like the service entrance. Once you enter, the overall indoor space is dim and has a warm intimate vibe. Just note that since it is so small and can only seat 4-6 people + 8 more people standing, expect to have others be shoulder-to-shoulder no matter where you are and to have them overhear your conversation. I will say that cocktail wise, it is amazing. They're thoughtful and balanced with some unexpected combinations. If you like spirit forward drinks try a stirred whiskey or mezcal option. If you prefer something lighter go for one of the citrus forward gin cocktails. You can also tell the bartender what you like and let them help you make a custom drink! Get there right when they open or before 6 pm especially on weekends. It fills up within minutes on the weekends and seating is limited They don't accept reservations for cocktails. All seating is first come first served. They do take reservations for food at the bar from Tuesday to Thursday from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm read more

What a fun discovery this was! Tucked away in Hayes Valley, Linden Room feels like a true speakeasy with its intimate interior, hushed, cozy vibe, and great cocktails. The inside truly is tiny - there were about a dozen people in the bar when we arrived, and it felt packed! But it was very cozy, dimly lit, and with chill, vibey music greeting us as we entered. We were quickly served, and hovered at the standing area around the bar. We ordered the Ralphie Boy, Flor de Luna, and a negroni - all were absolutely delicious in their own way, though I think we all agreed the Ralphie Boy came out on top. While the menu isn't extensive, I get the strong impression based on how our drinks turned out that every single one is excellent. We didn't stay long as we had dinner plans to jet off to, but I am already looking forward to the next time we can have an extended stay here. If you're looking for the true speakeasy vibe and are okay with the limited space/seating, then treat yourself to Linden Room! read more

It's a great after-theater hangout because by then the crowd has thinned out. 4.3: Ralphie Boy: Rye, mead, orchard amaro, lemon, citrus merengue foam topping. A little to astringent.

On Friday evening, at approximately 7:45, my party of five popped in to start our evening with a few drinks. The bartender, who was definitely not busy making drinks, asked in a very unfriendly manner how many were in our party. I told him five and he rudely responded that they only accepted parties of four and turned his back to us. There were only seven customers in the bar. I have been in the restaurant industry along with two others in our party for MANY years. Collectively, we own five restaurants and a large tequila distillery. I can honestly say I have not had a worse customer service experience. It prompted me to write my first Yelp review EVER. There is no mention anywhere on their website that they do not take parties of over four people. With so many amazing bars and restaurants in SF, we will never go back. We left almost laughing and then enjoyed a few drinks at the casual but always friendly Sugar Lounge before enjoying an exceptional meal at Rich Table. read more

Linden Room is one of my favorite spots in the city. It's a tiny place so ideal to go for a quiet and classy date night vibe. They have a unique cocktail selection, and everything I've tried has been top-notch with the perfect balance of flavors. At any cocktail bar my usual order is the classic manhattan, and they happened to make one of the best manhattans I've had! Service-wise, the bartenders have always been sweet and attentive. And, something I typically don't comment on - probably the best "bar bathrooms" in the city - includes Aesop hand wash, cotton hand towels, and scented candle. read more

We visited the Linden Room for their tasting menu and it was a great experience. The bar itself has such a cool, chill vibe--it's intimate and stylish without being pretentious. A huge shoutout to our bartender, Michael. Not only were his drinks absolutely delicious and perfectly balanced, but he was incredibly kind and genuinely cared that we were having a great time. As for the food, every dish in the tasting was distinct and inventive. You can tell so much thought goes into the flavors and presentation. If you want a superb, high-end experience that's fun and relaxed, this is the spot. read more

4.5 STARS Who remembers when Hayes Valley was just a freeway exit? I was still learning my ABCs but it's nothing like I remember it to be. Tech and gentrification came, and it became one of the hottest neighborhoods in the city. If you're looking for a poppin' spot to drink and eat...you'll find it in Hayes Valley. But, if you're not...and just want a quiet, low-key spot to get your classy drank on... Linden Room. One of the reviews I've slept on, they're a speakeasy from Nightbird that opened in 2016. Still as solid today as my first visit back then. * No rezzies, walk-in only so highly recommend making this your first stop of the night. * No parties over 4. Best to come with another person max. * Eight seats with comfy stools that will support a big booty...natural or not. * Solid seasonal craft cocktails ($17-$20) that are STRONG so you get your monies worth. * Bartender(s) that know their sh*t. * Dim, ambient lighting so what filter? AND, when the drunchies hit afterwards, you have plenty of solid options within walking distance to fit any budget. My vote is for the squirting dumplings down the block. ;) read more

Not sure about this place. Let me preface, I didn't have a drink here but think they would be well made. I expected some seating and they don't have any. This is a pre-dinner one drink cocktail stop. The menu had some interesting mixology type drinks that all seemed sweet. It's a small space for standing with a friend or two. Then leave. I wish they had seating to accommodate a regular dirty martini, which again, I think would be made well. I just didn't want to stand and drink. So go if you are needing a predinner drink. Quick and easy. Longer? Maybe find somewhere with seats. read more

This spot is less than a 10min walk from my spot and I just now got to experience it after almost a year. The interior is so small and it is mostly standing - there are about 8 seats so if you are one of the lucky ones, yay! Otherwise big parties are probably not ideal and you should be prepared to stand. Interior has a lit up bar shelf and 2 kind bartenders. The drinks are seasonal and when I went, it was floral heavy which isn't my palette - but it was still nonetheless a well crafted cocktail! No reservations either - walk in first come first serve type spot! read more

Drinks are extremely strong, I would recommend the harvest moon -- had lovely citrusy notes. read more

Really love their glassware! I finally came in with my partner as we have been wanting to try this place out. We are a huge fan of fancy cocktails that highlight the flavor profiles of the liquor used. We ordered a vesper and gin martini. Both very delicious and crisp. The area is TINY but it is what makes it unique and cozy. People are friendly. You have to scope out when the next person is getting ready to leave so you can snag a chair if you'd like to sit. This place has an entrance in an alley way which is cute with speakeasy type vibes (not a speakeasy). Bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend! read more

Walked in on a Friday night and bar was pretty full, no seats were availible but bartenders let us in and we were able to find some standing room by the bar. Note that they don't allow groups larger than 4 people so be prepared. Visited in December and they had a great holiday menu featuring festive drinks which was an added bonus. Drinks: Toy Solider - super bright and refreshing, well balanced and not too spirit forward, loved that the drink was served with a gingerbread cookie. Great lighter to start with. Sugar Nut - this was fantastic, really rich and decadent, a great upscale twist to a hot buttered rum, highly recommend this as a dessert or if you are a fan of sweet warm cocktails Eggnog Shots - really tasty and fun, eggnog was the proper level of boozy, and not too rich, totally worth trying one Service: Great, servers were quick and friendly, they even answered our questions about the unique glass ware displayed on the bar. Overall highly recommend stopping by the Linden Room for a drink, cocktails are expertly crafted, drinks are on the expensive side but worth the splurge in my opinion. read more

One of my favorite cocktail bars in San Francisco. I've never had a cocktail here I didn't love. As of December 2022, my favorite cocktail is the Evening Dram, which features a high proof bourbon, oloroso sherry, dry curacao, chynar, maple, and candy cap (mushroom) bitters, barrel aged with a solera system. Truly magnificent. ($18) Mixologists are friendly and skilled. They are happy to create a custom cocktail for you based on your mood and preferences. It's very small (about 10 seats), so I recommend going at off hours during the weekdays. Located on the small Linden alley in Hayes Valley, near Civic Center. Great for a drink after an opera, symphony, or ballet show. read more

They don't allow groups larger than four people here, so plan your outing accordingly. I am giving this a four star and not a five because I have been here once and I had one cocktail which was the TCP. It was a vodka based cocktail and oh my god it was expertly crafted. The cocktail was so refreshing and tasty, a perfectly balanced cocktail. Even my husband really enjoyed his cocktail Penny Whistle. The servers were friendly and answered any questions we had about the menu. I would highly recommend stopping by Linden Room for their amazingly crafted cocktails.

Ok this place is tinyyyy, so do *not* come here with a group. It's more like a 3-party max type of bar. Seating is first come, first serve, and there's bar seating along with a little smudge of seating against the wall The bartenders are fabulous (at least on the night I went) and they make sure to greet everyone who walks in, are super observant of all in the bar, and are masters at their craft. Speaking of craft, the cocktails are amazing! Hands down one of the best cocktail bars in SF. I was with two other friends and we tried a bunch of their drinks, my personal favorite was the Kiseru - this was also the most fun drink we had. It's a whiskey drink prepared in a closed bottle that contained the mix along with smoke, essentially giving the ability to smoke the whiskey and pour the drink. It was delicious read more

This tiny cocktail lounge can be found through a hidden unmarked red door from the side of an alley. Because the bar is so small, there's limited seating; there's around only 10 seats, so you'll probably be awkwardly standing around with your drink in your hand while waiting for someone to leave. I came in around 9pm on a Saturday and was able to grab a seat after around 15 minutes. By the time it was 10pm, more people came in and the room was packed. I tried the Akashi and Tiger Lily. The Akashi is Japanese whiskey with a pretty strong smokey flavor. Tiger Lily is more subtle and sweet. Drinks here are a bit steep, but they are exceptional and top-notch. Either way, I had a great time here; it's super chill, I could still hear my convos, and my drinks were strong, but definitely creative. CHEERS! read more

A great cocktail place thats within walking distance of Smugglers Cove, The Symphony Hall, and other great restaurants. I ended ordering the Ralphie Boy and it was delicious! A decent bourbon taste with tons of berry flavor and a creamy, smokey egg white top. The space can get stuffy real quick. If you get hot easily like me, stand by the door, and crack it open slightly for a breeze. You'll also more than likely end up standing due to how limited the space is. It's about as big as a normal bedroom. You can try to hang out in the hallway, but the staff will kick you back out into the main room since its a fire hazard. read more

Pandan Vieux Carré ($22) By far my favorite cocktail of the night - very well balanced, spirit forward but also bright and silky. A5 Wagyu & Black Truffle Old Fashioned ($25) This was also fantastic, rich and buttery old fashioned with truffle accents. The A5 Wagyu is sourced from the Niku Steakhouse local butcher shop! Ube Cheesecake ($19) Wonderful dessert cocktail to finish the night. We didn't have time to try the Escape Room connected to the Speakeasy, but we'll be back! There are two rooms, one in the front with a puzzle theme, and another in the back with a Middle Earth (Lord of the Rings) vibe. Staff was friendly and took time to explain the clever menu to us!

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.

Hot Take: Weeknights are better than weekends for going out…read more Chill, less of a crowd, a locals vibe, and to avoid amateur hour. I'm personally over (and too old) dealing with sloppy drunks spilling drinks on you, getting pushed around in a crowd or end up in a middle of a brawl Blind Pig is that perfect spot, well at least on a weeknight: chill, low-key, and moody. And, most importantly comfy seating AND solid AZN inspired craft cocktails ($18-$19). Cocktails with black sesame, taro, pandan, mapo tofu, tea, and hot pot flavors? YAS! D R I N K S * Hot & Sour: Tanqueray Gin w/ Iichiko shochu, aloe, rose, hot pot paste, basil, citrus, peychaud's ($18 x2) The sichuan hot pot inspired cocktail was silky smooth from the milk-washed gin, nicely balanced - sweet (but not too sweet) and sour with a subtle málà numbing spice. Stiff yet easy to drink. The manager/bartender, Leo was awesome with great hospitality. Background lounge-y music is not too loud so you can yap and catch-up with friends. Overall, Blind Pig is a great place to unwind after work or start the night off. If it's too tamed for you, you can always go next door to XEX to make bad decisions - no judgement cuz we've all been there! ;) O T H E R I N F O * Walk-in only.

I think in many ways, Blind Pig just fell a little flat. I would like to say that the service here was amazing. A bartender who sat with you to talk about the menu, the process, and your experience very passionately and intently. However, I think that the bar program is a little unrefined. Every drink had 10,000 ingredients, and most of them did not work together. If the drink did work together, you just tasted nothing because everything blended together and you couldn't taste any special or fun ingredients. Unfortunately, I don't think this spot is worth looking for.

We came to watch the Super Bowl actually and the place was wonderfully spacious, no cramped bar chaos, just a great vibe with plenty of room to settle in. Since we weren't really in a drinking mood (didn't need a monday hangover haha), we kept it simple with beers - I got a Humble Sea IPA and it was exactly what I wanted! That said, the cocktail menu looked absolutely fabulous and we're already plotting our next visit to actually dig into it properly. And the food - Lost Resort really impressed us. The burger was outstanding, the chicken sandwich was outstanding, and the fish and chips were OMG-level good. Perfectly crispy, generous, the kind of bar food that makes you wonder why more places can't just nail the classics like this :) Genuinely can't wait to come back.

Seeing that it was named one of the top 50 best bars in North American, we had to check it out! We came in a Thursday night in mid-April about 9:45 PM. They have security outside thar checks IDs & also manages the queue in case the bar gets too crowded. We had no issues getting in, but there were zero indoor seats available - both the bar & table seating. Thankfully, they have a really cozy & well-lit patio area. The waitress let us know that even the outdoor patio has table-side service, so we made ourselves comfortable on the outdoor bench & within seconds she had brought us waters & cocktail menus. Weather outside was really nice, so I'm glad we actually sat outside. Each cocktail is $20, which definitely is a little steep, but I think the creativity, quality, & prestige of being named a top 50 bar supports the price. Each part of the menu is organized by liquor ie whiskey, vodka, brandy, gin, etc. We tried 4 drinks total. I only took menu photos of the pages we ordered from but they have a lot more selections. We ordered the Kung Fu Pandan, Silky Street, Rice Rice Baby, & Tropical Gangsta. We had some favorites over others, but all were very well crafted! The drinks came out pretty quickly considering how busy it was. The only hiccup was our final drink took quite a while. Turns out the ticket machine malfunctioned & deleted orders put in & caused a back-up. The waitress was so apologetic & ended up comp-ing 2 drinks, which she definitely didn't have to but it speaks volumes to the high standards they hold themselves to & their customer service. Overall, highly highly recommend checking this place out for a fun night out or post-dinner treat! Glad we made the decision to stop in!

My major gripe here is that every time I have been here, they keep the door open, and it is absolutely freezing inside. It is near the water, so you get a cold breeze running through the bar. I don't know if it is some legal reason, but that would make this bar even better if they just closed the door.
