The Attic

In Short
Hanging red lanterns illuminate a path deep into the bar, opening onto a square back room (where DJs spin rock to hip-hop, Thu-Sun). This space is filled with tightly packed tables and chairs of different heights, all black and adorned with red candles and lamps. The overall effect is to shut out the famous Mission sunshine and create an always-dark, timeless feel. This place appeals to two types, both of them young and fun.

See you there ~9pm!

Know Before You Go

For men: No hats, tennis shoes or weathered jeans. Women can sport jeans and sandals--as long it's a "well-put-together outfit," according to staff.

What to Drink
Try a rich French Tickler martini (amaretto, Kahlua, Grand Marnier, and raspberry liqueur).

In Short
White curtains drape the wooden entrance, while champagne-themed artwork decorate the interior's exposed-brick walls. The Krug, an intimate downstairs space with white-stucco walls and low ceilings, features a second bar, additional seating and a red-felt pool table. Champagne aficionados and mixed-drink enthusiasts will find something to whet their respective palates; in addition to an extensive martini menu, more than 300 varieties of sparkling wine are available. A small-plates menu features oysters, caviar, strawberries and more champagne accompaniments.

See you ~9pm.
