Propagation had me feeling like I was sipping my rum cocktail in a jungle. As suggested by the name, a variety of plants intertwined the inside of the building, providing a very beautiful and natural interior design. Drinks were very flavorful and strong - always a plus! I can't wait to come back here with friends. While it's a bit small on the inside, there is plenty of seating and lounge spots to relax and hang out with friends or a date. read more

I want to give this place another try. I came on a Tuesday night and it was painfully slow. The space is actually kinda small, I think it's because of the decor which I loved but it made it feel tight. The ambiance was very dark, moody, jungle vibes. It had a date vibe to it cuz there are little nooks all over the place. The place super hidden so at first we couldn't really see it, but it's on the corner. The service was bare minimum. The bartender didn't try to make conversation or have any interest in talking to anyone besides the gentlemen at the bar. It seemed like there were only 2 people working, with no table service, so you have you go to the bar to get a drink. The drinks were good though. I loved the glasses and we all tried something different. I think I liked the Gardener's Daughter the most. I'm not usually a gin person but it was really good. I would give it another chance, I'll just go on a better night and hopefully have better service. read more

Great combination of ambiance, cocktails and people. Filled with lush foliage and an impressive drink menu to boot. Its like being at your best friend's place in the Mission but with a top notch mixologist making you drinks. Lovely concoctions and beverages constructed with care. So many drinks had ingredients that I would never have thought to put together. Wonderful way to cap an evening or start one... read more

One of the best at what they do. A bar like this doesn't need to entertain you with food options. This is the before and after location based solely from their above-average drink selections. Getting lost in the jungle of a lounge they have and being prescribed the perfect libation by their talented bartenders is enough to keep you for a couple rounds. It's what a cocktail bar should be: cozy, inspiring, and delicious. I'll be back. read more

The music was so blaring and obnoxious that we did not stay for even one drink. So much for a"quiet bar" Michael read more

Of all the many bars and options in San Francisco Propagation is by far my favorite. Love supporting small businesses who pours their whole heart into a bar built with love. Every drink is made with so much effort, decorations is superb and changes with theme depending on which holiday seasons. The vibe is relaxing and personal and all from any background are welcome. Bar is super clean, bartenders are nice, skilled and friendly. You can even bring your pets! There was some holiday specials drinks on the menu, I had the Christmas in July and Santa lives here and they were both so yummy! Definitely the perfect place to meet with friends or even some alone time after a long day. Paired with the perfect surroundings of plants, yummy drinks and peaceful happy vibes this place is a gem!! read more

Propagation - Cocktail Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

My favorite neighborhood cocktail bar in SF! I came here for the aesthetics but stayed for the drinks. I'm usually not a huge fan of alcohol, but the cocktails that I tried (Summon the Revival and Thriller Spiller Filler) were amazing. The space is intimate and cozy as well as overflowing with plants. They have couches and armchairs as well as tables and bar seating. It's not too loud inside so you can still get a conversation in. The service was great and the bartender was so helpful and welcoming. Highly recommend for drinks after work or a date night! read more

Best bar in San Francisco. Cool concept Great decor!!! Amazing drinks!!! Great service!!! read more

Thought this was a plant store at first and thought it was odd that it was open late at night. But when we heard the music we decided to pop in. I love the small cozy feeling of the bar, looking at the plants and they play good music! People didn't start showing up more until after 11 or so on a Saturday night. Drinks are decently priced. Next time I'm up in SF I definitely want to stop by this place again. read more

One of SF's most unique cocktail spots. It's a nice place for a laid back date or just a boozy night out. It's like drinking in a flower shop or fancy garden, there are plants everywhere. It's fun, welcoming, and offers shade from nosy neighbors. We came after the sun was down, and I'm not sure a single light was on in this place. It was probably the darkest bar we have ever visited. The large windows let the street lights shine in to provide ambiance. For drinks, we tried an apple of my rye and another, we didn't get the name, but it was an irish coffee variation with a salted whipped cream topped with pistachios. The apple of my rye was a tasty treat, well balanced and sippable. The coffee drink was good, but the cream was not, it tasted way overchurned, more like a stick of butter on top. After scooping it out, the drink underneath was quite good. Definitely a solid spot for a fresh experience. read more

Super cool and unique vibe. Feels like you're in a jungle. The cocktails are super interesting including the names. Overall one of my favorite cocktail bars in SF now. It can get pretty packed during the weekend but it's not too hard to get a seat if you come around 9pm. read more

This store is so so cute! If you want planty vibes, go to Propagation. Plus, they actually do sell plants, I think--they're giving some away for Thanksgiving, at least! The people who worked there were cool, lots of seating, chill indie alternative type music, and the drinks ran the gamut of flavors! The How Things Were & How They Are had cold brew, salted cream, and pistachio, which was mostly tasted, but the cream layer seemed a bit too thick? Like I was just drinking cream for the first few sips and it was a lot. My friend enjoyed hers less than I did, but overall, I thought it was good! The Pinkie's Up was very refreshing, as were all of the other fruitier drinks that my friends ordered. Overall, great experience, would come back! read more

Super fun plant bar that I found through tik tok. Came with some friends on a Saturday during the day. It wasn't too crowded, we were able to have our own little private corner with chairs. They have tasty and unique drink options here too! When I came I got the pistachio drink which was super good while my other friends got some of the other drinks on the menu which also did not disappoint. Price point was a bit expensive but I expected that given they were all specialty cocktails. Side note - this place is great for photos!! read more

What is an example of propagation? Propagation is the reproduction or spreading of something. When a plant or animal reproduces, this is an example of propagation. If you like plants, come here and surround yourself around them. If you like making love and maybe, possibly, accidentally reproducing, come here and grab yourself a strong but delicious drink. Nice green décor, friendly staff. read more

Came here last night (Wednesday after Valentine's Day) for a night cap around 9:00. The place was pretty empty with only two tables sat. We were greeted by friendly Bartenders and got a seat on the couch. They have late night happy hour from 8;00-10:00 for selected drinks for $12. I got a coffee cocktail and my boyfriend got a $7 shooter. My cocktail was super flavorful but seemed kinda small considering the shooter was only a bit smaller. The inside is cute and cozy but darker than I expected. Some of the music they played didn't seem to match the relaxed environment so we decided not to stay for a second drink. Overall it's a cute place with good looking cocktails. Would consider coming back here if I'm in the area but wouldn't go out of my way to come back. read more

He nailed all of them!! Yum! Be sure to check this place out, your won't be disappointed. Bonus: they sell street tacos which were pretty tasty as well! read more

I was here on Monday night. The service was normal but I gave them 20% tips as I always do. The thing is I just found out that I was charged 4% of credit card fee, I was so upset because nobody told us. Also I've been to many bar but this is never happened before. At least if you want to charge customer for that you should put it on the menu so they can make a choice. read more

aesthetic: 5/5 food: 5/5 service: 5/5 to my fellow plant parents out there, the plant-filled propagation is the perfect cocktail bar for you!! love love LOVED everything about this cocktail spot!! my friend and i came here on a thursday night and we were seated right away (def could expect the wait to be longer on a weekend/fri night given how hip this place is) as for drinks, my friend got the "thriller spiller filler," and i ordered the "summon the revival." as someone who normally has to water down her cocktail with 1-2 cups of ice lol, that wasn't the case here - my drink was very light, yet fruity, sweet, and refreshing. given that my drink hit my ideal taste profile spot and that i did not have to water it down for the first time ever, "summon the revival" is the best cocktail i've had and i'll be back regularly for this!! absolutely get this drink if you're not a fan of alcoholic-tasting beverages. also shoutout to the bartenders who let us snack on the pineapple/fruit garnishes - you are the best!! with the cute tropical ambiance, friendly and attentive service, and bomb drinks (+ happy hour deals from 8-10pm) here, propagation is a must-visit bar in sf!! read more

I call it "Plant Zaddy Cocktail Club". In the neighborhood of my job. I stop by for drinks after my work day once in a while. Plants everywhere which is awesome to a plant zaddy like me (jk).

The crowd is friendly and hip as well if you care for things like that. read more

Is it a bar? Is it a botanical garden? Is it some weird fusion of cool couches and plants and even better cocktails? Whatever it is, it's amazing - and women-owned (always a plus)! The cocktails here are some of the best I've ever had. I give out a lot of good reviews on this app, but I'm not lying when I say that there isn't a bad cocktail on this menu. Don't take my word for it - I haven't tried them ALL - but I've tried enough and am generalizing the rest of the menu based on my experience with the many, many cocktails I've tried from here. I came here inappropriately early in the day to do some day drinking, so it wasn't very crowded, but rest assured, this place gets busy at the right hours. There's cozy seating areas, but not a lot of seating, so I'd be prepared to show up early or wait around for a spot at the bar if not. The service here is incredible - I love a bartender that actually enjoys making drink recommendation based on my favorite flavors - and this is a great place to hang with friends or solo, if you're craving a cocktail like no other. read more

One of the coolest bars in the city. I love all the plants inside! The drinks are freaking awesome and the bartenders are all really cool!
