Welcome to Dobbs Bar

“ Nice little bar in Hayes Valley. Went here for drinks with a group of friends after brunch on a Saturday afternoon. Decent beer selection, though nothing special. They also have some unique cocktails, many of which sounded intriguing. I had La Ultima Palabra, a mezcal cocktail. If you like mezcal, it was a great cocktail. It was smoky from the mezcal but also light and refreshing. Don't have too much else to say. We really just ordered drinks and hung out for a while. There are many bars in the area but this is a solid option as well. Not sure if I'd necessarily seek it out though. ”

“ Today I tried to visit the Symphony, but it turns out I am kicked out of volunteering at the Symphony...sad story. Well, it was a good run, and good luck to the Symphony. I decided to have myself a meal at Dobbs Bar in Hayes Valley. I had a burger and it had cheese. I had a grapefruit juice as well with no refills(noted). It was $20 for this snacky dinner. The burger was good and satisfactory. However, it felt indulgent and fattening. So, I should watch myself with these burgers. I noticed some after work dudes. The bartender was okay, but kind of not that warm to help. I didn't understand that this bar was not Dobbs Ferry restaurant. The restaurant is next door and this is a smaller bar with bar bites and a drink list. Well, it's a nice space and it's worth it. The name of restaurant/bar must be from the town in New York state Dobbs Ferry. Is that where Mark Zuckerberg comes from? ”

“ Quaint, small bar with that English pub style. Walked in on a Wednesday night and it was quiet. But that's what we wanted. A good place to grab a drink and have a conversation where you can hear each other. They have a small selection of beers on tap and some signature cocktails on the board. Also a decent wine selection, but am I surprised? This is California. I actually ended up getting a glass of wine and the bar tender allowed me to taste different ones. Coming from Colorado beer country, this was a welcoming variety from the standard pub wine you can find nationwide. Service was great overall. Bar has some large counter size tables near the window, so you could accommodate a large group if needed. Maybe 8 people or so. Seating at the bar also available. Restrooms were clean and plentiful. ”

“ Great spot for drinks and a casual bite, especially when everything else in Hayes Valley has a crazy wait. The buffalo wings are SO GOOD! The arancini are also delicious, although 2 to an order is a little disappointing. ”

“ Fun place to hang out with friends and have a beer or two. They have fries which are good if you get hungry and these days they are serving aperol spritzer as well .. So all you aperol fans, get to this place to try a cocktail. You might not always get a place to sit so make sure you are okay to stand. Overall, a fun vibe place to hang out. ”
