A clean and spacious pub without the typical sports bar feeling, the white walls, pillar candles, and warm lighting give Danny Coyle's a craftsman feel, as if Restoration Hardware had something to do with the styling. They don't serve food, but this pub serves more higher-end brews and spirits than most traditional sports bars, boasting a full bar and Guinness, Stella Artois, and Blue Moon on tap, as well as Chimay and Duvel bottles. There are more than four TVs positioned throughout the bar, broadcasting European football (the place attracts lots of soccer lovers) or basketball (NBA or college) games, and during the fall, NFL games. However, Niners and Raiders fans beware: Danny Coyle's often screens football games from other markets, so Niners games are relegated to the back TV and the Raiders are somewhat of an afterthought. Danny Coyle's is a designated "Chargers Bar" - as in the San Diego Chargers - so when the Bolts score a touchdown, the bartender even belts the San Diego Super Chargers theme over the sound system. When it's not game night, they host Brainstormer, the trivia night emceed by Irishman Liam McAtasney. And there's a DJ on weekend nights, when the dance floor is used for booty shakin'.
This place is in my neighborhood and I just happened to walk it on a Sunday night. It was surprisingly busy with a lot of very excited soccer fans. I like sports bars, in fact I prefer them to the typical club so on that note I would definitely recommend this place. the drinks were good and the people were enthusiastic.
Good bar with strong drinks. Gem of the lower Haight
