    The beer lists What's on tap?
    Ashley H.

    This place had ALOT of great beers on tap. You could build you own flight or just get a beer of various sizes. It was dog friendly which was fun to see the sweet pups visiting. The service was fast and friendly and patient as I built my flight. I really enjoyed the beer and the vibes and I would definitely come back to try more brews!

    What an awesome place! 5 Gold Stars for Liquid Gold! Great craft beers on tap, a bottle (cans too) shop as well. There were also some wine choices. This is always on my list for my San Francisco trips!

    Liquid Gold - has an old-school SF, chill vibe, and a solid selection of craft brews, on draft. Excellent place to taste some of the good, regional stuff.

    Sours are my favorite!

    When it comes to a craft beer bar, Liquid Gold checks all the boxes for me! I've been coming here for years, and this past weekend was my first time since COVID hit, and it was amazing to enjoy a nice cold sour beer inside! What'll you notice right away is their enormous selection of draft and bottle/canned beer. On draft you'll have at least 20+ options and a lot of them rotate, so coming in everytime is like a new experience! All their beer options on the TVs above the screens and what I love most is that they have clear descriptions and pricing for each one. My go-to if I'm with a group is to go for the flights, because I'm a variety type of guy. My latest trip was the first time I was able to trying an Alvarado street brewing sour beer, and it was easily the best tasting sour I've had ever. I believe it was called the Howitz, which is a passionfruit, orange & guava kettle sour ale. It was so tasty, I had to get two! Another reason I love this place, it's dog friendly! They have tables outside, but they even let me bring my pup inside while I sipped on my beer. If you find yourself on Polk St. this is just a short walk from the main area. Highly recommend this spot for any beer lovers out there!

    How did I not know this place existed??? We came here on a whim after reading solid reviews for the place on Yelp, and are we glad we decided to check them out! Double Howzit Punch from Alvarado street, yes please! What an amazingly balanced 8% POG sour. The Turbo Dust hazy from Bare Bottle, it was smooth and not overly bitter, with a great dry hopped flavor punch. We also tried the Barrel roll #3 from Hanger 24 and it was a little sweet for my taste, but good flavor otherwise. Great attentive bartenders and a cool vibe and a couple screens playing local sports games. Be sure to stop in if you're in the area!

    18$ for a pint of hazy? Per the website menu is this right? Seems a bit much with so many good bars I would have to pass on this

    Do you do Growler fills?

    Unfortunately in CA, we are not allowed to fill growlers. Only breweries are allowed to.

    Are pets allowed?

    When I was there there was a pet sitting on someone lap at the bar. Don't know official policy but they seem pet friendly.

    Are kids allowed?

    Sorry, no kids. Our license only allows for 21 and over.

    With practice makes perfect!!…read more My first review was spot of for the time. But DAYUM did they PICK UP THEIR GAME! Can I say Grill Lemon Pepper Chicken wings....SO DELISH! We normally ask for DJ as our server. He is quick, thorough, on his game ALWAYS!!! We live him. If he is not available, we ask for Alyssa, same type of attentive service, but just a scoch more serious the DJ. This time we had Michael, he was upbeat laughed with you, and super fun. Thank you all 3 for keeping our table service on point. And the host staff specifically DJ's mom, lmao.... I am horrible I have never got her name and she is just the sweetest and with the thousands of people that dine at Splash, she remembers us, is always so helpful pleasantly refreshing and "keeps us in our place". Lmao.... Love it so much, spending my birthday here in 9 days for playoffs!!! Thank you Splash team, you all rock! P.S. CRAB FRIES, period!!!

    Great place to meet up with friends and/or family before and after an event!…read more It's pretty easy to get a seat either at the bar or at a counter since the place is big. There are indoor and outdoor seats. Order the THRIVE CITY NACHOS! It's a big portion and it's a 10/10! The chips are light and crispy and topped with black beans, pico de gallo, guacamole, sour cream, and more! I added grilled chicken which made it a full meal for me hahaha each bite when you get a little bit of everything will make you do a little dance since it's so good! hahaha

Doesn't matter if…read moreyou're a fan or not, they always have all sorts of games being televised at any given time. It also gets pretty full before Giants games since the bar is only a few blocks away from the ballpark. It's also a great place to meet people too... I've met individuals from all over the world including Peru, Argentina, Germany and Japan just to name a few. First off, you cannot go here without trying the Wisconsin Cheese Curds. I have personally been to Green Bay and I must say that these are the closest I've ever had to the real thing, no doubt. They're crispy, soft and oh soooo cheesy!! I also love how for every Packers touchdown, us real fans get jell-o shots! Fun fact: The tradition of the shots was started by a lady named Jackie... Real sweetheart! Well, she sadly passed away about two years ago, but they still continue that tradition and even dedicated her a nice plaque that's proudly displayed on the wall. Also, if you're a fan of bleu cheese, you'll definitely want to try out the NY Steak Sandwich as it comes with a yummy bleu cheese aioli! Even as a regular, just know it's kind of hard to get the bartender's attention if you want to order a drink or food as it gets kind of hectic around the bar area on game days. Don't be shy... Just wave em down and they're super chill and happy to take your order:)

By the time we arrived, the kitchen had already closed, but the staff kindly let us know that we were welcome to bring in outside food. They recommended Joyride Pizza next door, which turned out to be a great option to enjoy with our drinks. Both bartenders were friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. The music selection was also really good and added to the fun, lively atmosphere. We stayed until around 12:30 a.m., and even more people were coming in as we were leaving--it definitely seems like a popular weeknight spot! We had a great time and are glad we found The Lark. Good drinks, great bartenders, fun music, and a relaxed outside-food policy--what more could you ask for? We'll definitely return the next time we're in San Francisco!

Hotel Nacional and an Espresso Martini and both were expertly made. Balanced, flavorful, and exactly what we were hoping for. They set the tone for a great afternoon. Later we added an order of chicken wings and a cold lager, and everything came together perfectly. Good food, great drinks, and a laid-back atmosphere made it easy to stay longer than we originally planned. What really stood out was the overall experience. The service was friendly and attentive, the atmosphere was stylish without feeling pretentious, and the entire place had a welcoming vibe. The Lark turned an unplanned stop into one of the highlights of our day. It's definitely the kind of place you'll want to come back to and we certainly will.
