Came here with a friend as she moved to the neighborhood recently and wanted to show me the bars around her! This was one of the bars, and definitely my favorite in the area. I love the interior as well as the lighting inside. I also like the mix of seating - from bar seating to velvet couches. It feels quite intimate inside, and the music is very nice as well. I got one of the gluten-free ciders to try, and it was great! I loved the fruity flavors of the drink and enjoyed that they labeled the gluten-free options carefully on the menu. On the day we went, they also were serving empanadas, and they looked so big and smells quite delicious. I definitely would've gotten one if I hadn't already been stuffed from dinner. The service was also great as the waiter came and checked on us periodically, and also answered questions we had about the food and drinks :) Definitely will be coming back again! read more

Woods Lowside - Wine Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Cute brewery with a great selection and immaculate vibes. The patio is really tiny though and there definitely aren't enough heaters for the haight! Service is super quick and the tacos were excellent. I look forward to trying the pizza next! read more

The drinks at woods are always great. They have a back patio which is nice on warmer days if you can find seating (it's shared long tables). The vibe inside is elevated beer / wine bar but still casual. Was there on a Monday night and they had live jazz which was pretty cool. They recently changed to tacos (instead of the old Joyride pizza) and honestly was pretty disappointed in the new food. The chicken tostada had cold chicken and was basically a cheesy salad. The bartender did comp a chicken taco for me to make up for it but it was nothing special either sadly. The wine and vibes are great however if you eat before! read more

Friendly service, spacious room, great dog friendly patio, variety of food depending on time you're there and something interesting for both beer lovers and oenophiles. I had 4 interesting half pours of wine (2 white, 1 rose pet nat and a "v" varietal. Partner had a mango beer and a salted caramel stout. Both excellent. Also tried beef and mushroom empanadas which were delicious (lucky to snag that last beef one). Would definitely be my hangout if I were local. read more

Woods was a nice surprise for our evening! We wanted some drinks and apps, and this was the perfect place. Even when the inside was full and it was ~45°, the patio was still cozy and warmed with heaters. It's order at the counter, the food we had was GREAT. Came out extremely fast and was awesome Mexican food. Would go back! read more

Lovely brewery with curated menu. This was our second stop after a friend's birthday dinner. The six of us enjoyed a couple drinks in their back patio area. Laid-back but polished vibe. Staff are friendly and attentive. I loved the twinkling cafe lights and airy atmosphere. Though it was a damp autumn evening, the space felt light and summery throughout. I had a berry sour for $10~ :3 Pretty good! Would love to come back and try more of their offerings. read more

This place has both indoor seating an outdoor patio in the back. You order at the bar. There's light bites, wings, and pizza to nosh on while you enjoy their beers and wines. Love the vibes of this place, and it's a great spot to catch up with friends/coworkers. read more

Hate to be a hater, but the beer here is very underwhelming. For the price, $10 for an 11 ounce pour of a sour, I expected great things. I was sorely disappointed. read more

Woods Lowside - Wine Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Have been here a handful of times now and have had a great time every visit. Great locations with fresh beer and wine, cozy environment with rotating art on display, delicious Detroit style pizza on site from Joyride, chill playlists, nice breezy plant covered patio and sometimes live jazz inside. Ive tried a few of their wines and a couple of their brews. Ive enjoyed all of them. The pizza is also pretty solid! You order at the bar and they give you your drinks directly from there and bring food out to you. I also saw they have a bottle shop too if you just want to get some beer/wine to go. Ive brought friends from out of town here as well snd they also enjoyed it. Check it out. read more

Your classic brewery that has an incredible ambiance! Walked in here on a Tuesday evening and got a drink and a spot to hangout within 10 minute. Wide variety of beer selection, great atmosphere and the servers were incredibly friendly. Will be back again! read more

I came here after a happy hour event nearby, and let me just say this place hit the spot. I've been to Joyride in SoMa, but Woods raised the bar. I love how large the venue is and how they have a large selection of pizzas, wings, drinks, and desserts, so there's guaranteed to be something for everyone. Perfect spot to hit up for a night out! read more

Woods Lowside - sausage & shrooms personal pizza - Wine Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Came in for a drink after wanting to check it out in the neighborhood. Great selection of beer and wine. Favorites were the chilled red, sour beer, and cider. It's cute inside and a small outdoor area as well. Bartender was great and friendly. They sell Joyride pizza which is delicious too. You can get a personal size or a full size pizza and have cut into however many slices you'd like. We ended up getting a half size/personal pizza and sharing it. I'd definitely come back and try more drinks/beer/wine read more

woods is such a cute brewery in lower haight! the beers are all amazing and super high quality. the blueberry boyfriend sour was my favorite. for the food (from joyride pizza), i'd recommend skipping the tater tots which were very regular. however, the veggie pizza was super delicious! the crust was amazing and baked with cheese. service was fine but the bartender wasn't the most friendly in my opinion. there was also only one person pouring and taking orders on a sunday afternoon. that's fine, but i'd expect a bit more hospitality and friendliness to be honest. overall, i would come back to woods and also go to their other locations! read more

I LOVE Woods! I have been to Woods quite a few times, but this is my first time leaving a review. My parents were visiting for the day so we decided to take them. We got a few beers and the green goddess pizza and sausage and mushroom pizza. Delicious!! SF blessed us with some beautiful weather so we could enjoy their cute back patio. I appreciate that they are dog friendly and I can always count on them for a quick drink or bite to eat read more

What a great find! Not very many breweries directly in SF, let alone open on a Monday. After chatting with someone who is local we were guided to Woods. The beers are wonderful! Everything we had was fantastic. The standouts were the hazy and the beers brewed with yerbe mate. The bartender, Alan, was friendly and knowledgeable and we enjoyed chatting with him. We didn't try the food, but I'm betting they don't skimp on quality with anything. read more

Really nice spot for dinner/drinks. They have a joyride kitchen on-site so the pizzas are freshly made to order and are delicious! For anyone who likes Detroit style pizza its a must try. I particularly like the sweet heat one with pineapples and jalapenos. The pizzas are pretty expensive - $27 for most of them and they're not too big, but they are filling and really yummy. One pizza should be enough for 1-2 people. Their drink menu has beer and natural wine (wine with no additives) with most wines around $15 per glass. There's tons of seating indoors, with tables for 2 and booths for larger groups of up to 6. The inside is dimly lit and makes for a nice intimate atmosphere. There's also an outdoor patio with 4-5 benches that can seat large groups. Service is all at the counter - you order there and the pizzas are brought over to your table. Will definitely be back! read more

Woods Lowside - Sweet heat - Wine Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Super popping on a Thursday night, so our group of four greedily eyed the tables until one became free, after which the server quickly cleared it for us. I'll be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of Detroit pizza, so maybe my review is a little skewed. My friend is vegan, so we opted for the vegan pizza, and I really did not like the vegan cheese. Is there an option that just uses tomato sauce? If I wasn't eating the vegan pizza, I'd still feel like the menu was pretty expansive and a little bit overwhelming with close to 20 options. Servers are chatty...amongst themselves. I felt like I was interrupting their conversation when I would go up to order. All in all, not sure I would come back. read more

The Woods Lowside has such a great vibe! I love coming here for some fresh beer and amazing pizza. The Woods has a nice outside patio in the back, which is amazing when it is sunny out, and a parklet in the front with heaters. In addition, there are big booths and seats at the bar inside. The Woods had beer and wine. I'm a beer drinker and love the rotating options. This time, I had Local Honey, which is a cult favorite. I have never had their wine, but I hear it is good. The Woods also serves Joyride Pizza. Joyride Pizza is Detroit-style, and the crust is thick, soft, and perfectly doughy with crispy cheese on the edges. My favorite is the Buffalo Chicken. It has Buffalo sauce, mozzarella, chicken, green onions, and blue cheese. It is soooo good. Joyride also offers gluten-free, and its just as good as the regular pizza. Nothing is better than pizza and a pint! read more

I walked by and wanted to see this drinking hole and restaurant. They serve Joyride pizza and I got two pieces for $12 because I couldn't think of something else to eat while working for 8 hours on the block. I liked my meal and didn't consider drinking here because I don't drink on the job. I asked her about the candles and how they don't cause harm because I don't know how candles work to this day. read more

I've been here around 3x now and absolutely love the interior design of the place; it feels like a little home with an elevated cozy area as well as a dining room table esque area as well as a backyard patio area. I ended up getting the cider and the honey beer last night and loved both! The service is also quite fast. read more

Great ambiance, food, service, it's such a great neighborhood spot. I've been to a few other Woods locations and this is definitely my favorite. It's good for catch ups, first dates, 50th dates, bringing out of towners. Having Joyride Pizza is incredible, since some other locations just have empanadas which makes it feel like a spot for snacking, but this location feels like a real place you can sit and drink and hang out for an extended, relaxed meal. The patio outside is lovely, the indoor decor vibe is impeccable with rotating art and plants, and the drinks are great. 10/10 no notes. read more

A fan of all Woods locations! This one has Joyride pizza available. The full order is enough for 2-3 people depending how hungry you are. More deep dish style. Good selection of draft beers with some nonalcoholic options available. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Usually fine to walk in and grab a table or seat at the bar. Live music some nights! read more

Woods has several locations throughout the city, each location is unique, but all are clean, modern, and serviced by a friendly welcoming staff and a beer bar serving a good variety of beers and ciders. Not a restaurant by any means, but a beer bar that has a nice food offering. Woods Lowside is spacious and serves up some tasty Detroit Style pizza, albeit it is a bit pricy for $15 for a half(2 pieces) or $27 for a whole. We had the Meatzza because we were drunk and needed that extra fatty deliciousness. read more

Great find in the Lower Haight. Look for the motorcycle in front, always there. You can't tell from the outside, but the place is pretty large, modern & clean. There's a lovely surprise patio in the back, surrounded by greenery. What a great event space. But that's not their main purpose. The centerpiece is their beer & wine bar, perfect for hanging out & having a Woods craft beer or natural wine. There's lots of tables inside to bring your Joyride pizza. Love the window table for people watching. And there's always some colorful people to watch. read more

This place is so cute and aesthetically appealing- this cute bar/pizza collab spot (joyride pizza) in haight is totally worth exploring. The vegetarian pizza options are good/Detroit style. Even thought this place is known for beer and its varied flavors, I tried their natural wine which was good - granache might be my new favorite. Recommend checking out this place. Good for decent sized groups. read more

Been wanting to check out this spot and finally came in on a Sunday afternoon. The vibe was cozy and chill; good seeing some nice plants displayed around the area. Lots of beer/wine selections! They also serve Joyride Pizza, which was probably one of the reasons we came. You order at the counter and they pour out the drinks for you. The only downside was the drink that our friend ordered wasn't that great. Couldn't remember the name of it but it was something strawberry; the after taste just tasted very artificial and odd. Not sure if they allow you to taste before committing to a drink, but highly suggest if they do. read more

Food and ambiance were great with reasonable prices ! I am looking forward to coming back.

The ambiance here is what I have been seeking in a bar. Candle lit, comfortable booths, lovely art, pleasant music. A note about music. So many lovely restaurants reduce themselves to playing loud pop music, and it is so disappointing. Woods Lowside has an indie flair to it, in the music and overall aesthetic, befitting of the beauty of the space. A few patrons were reading books, which definitely made Woods Lowside feel like my kind of place. The fact that we can order comforting pizza to accompany our beverages is also exactly what I've been seeking. I don't always want a menu of farm to table items that I can barely pronounce. In fact I rarely want such a menu. The Joyride pizza options are so delicious and are exactly what I want to eat. I am really looking forward to coming back. read more

This review is mostly for Joyride Pizza but also for Woods Lowside. Two words: BE HERE. Woods Lowside has a super cozy environment that allows you to chill with friends, enjoy some wine, beer, etc of your choice, and most of all, chow down on some DELICIOUS pizza. -- Food -- - 1/2 size of Bacon Me Crazy. The crunch on this DSP style was fantastic, flavor was out of this world, and the acidity of the tomato sauce with the piped ricotta on top was perfect. Nothing else needs to be said about this. -- Location -- Great place on Haight! Walkable from the Panhandle and lots of other areas of SF (Hayes Valley, Alamo, etc) -- Service -- Super casual, you order at the cash register and they pour the drinks quickly. They have a great selection of beers, wines, and more! Definitely check out Woods Lowside if you're in the area, especially if you're hungry for some pizza. Joyride does not disappoint! read more

So, this review is exclusively for Joyride pizza, so it feels weird even posting it here but I don't think posting it on a Joyride Yelp makes more sense so here we go.. We ordered online for pick up from the Woodside website. This location opened up pretty close to us so we've been wanting to try it. We ordered garlic knots, the sweet bianca + pepperoni, and the zoe roni. Everything was delicious BESIDES the garlic knots. I don't know if they came out the oven way earlier or what, but they tasted they some terrible garlic bread you get from pizza hut that has been sitting out for a while. Like honestly not good at all. HOWEVER, the pizza was delicious! I put this somewhere in between cellarmaker (as my fav detroit style) and sq. pie guys (which is still good too). This is lighter than both cellarmaker and sq. pie guys, with more crispy cheese and better edges/crust than SPG but not cellar maker. It is def good - has a light fluffy feel with very good flavor. My fiance didn't love the sweet bianca but I thought it was delish with the pepperoni complimenting it. It is very sweet though for sure. I am sure we will be ordering again and next time we'll probably stop in for a beer or two with our pies! read more

I love the vibe at woods! Such a fun place to hang out with friends. 100% recommend. Both their beer and wine options are fantastic. I really like their woods hazy ipa. The joyride pizza was also delicious. The pepperoni was my fav! read more

I came with a group of friends and we tried five different pizzas. All were on focaccia bread. And all were salty. The best part of the pizza were the crispy edges. We sat outdoors and on the wooden tables and benches and each table had a heater, so we were all pleasantly comfortable in the cool evening. read more
