San Francisco's worst-kept secret may be Zeitgeist's huge beer garden, where throngs converge to share crowded picnic tables, smoke in the sun, and drink pitcher after pitcher of cold suds. The bar also recently upgraded and expanded its beer selection, offering many more taps of delicious microbrew goodness, and even built new backyard bathrooms (no more plastic Porta-Potties!) to accommodate the bladders of the masses. The punky bartenders are still notoriously ? and justifiably ? unwilling to tolerate rude yuppie customers, however, so be nice, tip well, and remember to program your favorite Black Flag songs on the jukebox.

  • 2011 | Best Bloody Mary

    At first you might be turned off by the abrasiveness of the bartenders, who don't act warm and friendly, especially when you order Bloody Marys. But this is a good thing — you want your Bloody Marys to be as spicy and saucy as the bartender... More >

    This is the spot to drink beer outside with pals on a warm night or afternoon. A Mission destination, it has a great selection of beers, including some Belgian brews, which are mighty tasty. Bikers' two-wheeled steeds give the exterior a tough... More >

  • 2002 | Best Place to Drink Away a Sunday

    On a Sunday afternoon, there is no mellower place to be in San Francisco than the courtyard at Zeitgeist. Hidden behind a somehow foreboding purple exterior on a block not quite in the Mission or the Castro, an eclectic mix of hipsters, bikers,... More >

  • 2002 | Best Barbecue

    With an enormous back patio and a diverse crowd, this "dive bar" has all the ingredients for a family picnic, but with family you would actually want to spend time around. The motto here is "Warm Beer, Cold Women, and Clean Rooms Cheap." Don't be... More >

  • 2001 | Best Bicycle Bar

    Zeitgeist has long been known as a "biker bar," attracting a variety of motorcycle enthusiasts and other leather-sporting patrons. It should be emphasized, therefore, that Zeitgeist is an equal-opportunity biker bar, welcoming operators of the... More >

    Great outdoor beer garden for afternoon drinks. They do serve some food inside, but you can also grab pizza from across the street.
