Had a blast at this place. My brother brought us here while we were visiting. We got to enjoy bingo night and had alot of fun. It was cool to learn about how they burned down an were rebuilt. If I lived in the area I could definitely see myself coming here alot. I especially enjoyed how we could get a pizza drop next door and eat it while drinking. Definitely a place to visit.

Absolutely loved this place. Definitely a Local spot. They treated me real good This place is Not a dive. It's real nice and simple. No food but there's food next door. Good pizza place they said. You can see the Pacific Ocean when you walk out the front. Watch out for the Ticket Ninjas! The got me for $110. Watch where you park especially if you're from out of town.

I recently visited The Riptide, a surf-themed bar in the Outer Sunset area of San Francisco, and I was blown away by my experience. This bar is located just blocks away from the beach, and the surf-inspired atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing evening out.

The drinks at The Riptide are delicious and well-priced, and the staff and service are top-notch. The bartenders are knowledgeable and friendly, and they take the time to make sure you're happy with your drink. The service is fast and efficient, and the staff are always ready with a smile and a recommendation.

The atmosphere at The Riptide is chill and inviting, with surf-inspired decor and a laid-back vibe. There's plenty of seating indoors and when outside you get a perfect view of the beach. Whether you're looking for a place to grab a drink with friends, or just want to relax and unwind after a long day, The Riptide is the perfect spot.

In conclusion, if you're looking for a surf-themed bar with great drinks, friendly staff, and a laid-back atmosphere, The Riptide in the Outer Sunset area of San Francisco is the place to be. I highly recommend this bar, and I will definitely be returning in the...

Lord it's aweful. Measure my review knowing I'm in from out of town. I'm positive Tuesday night karaoke is much better than what I saw (no one ainging). However the biggest problem was Tara who is clearly popular with locals...but not new faces. She cleared my drink when she came on shift and I didn't see her again untill I begged for water over a half hour later..mshe had poured at least 2 dozen drinks in between btw. Place is very nice though-clean bathrooms and a bar top/ambianve that speaks touch nicer things than a dive. However due to poor service I had to walk back across the street to riptide. Significantly better service, and premium cocktails-even if at a higher, more worthwhile...

Karaoke Tuesdays!!!!

There is so much happening here at The Riptide! They have lots of live music, parties and other fun events here all week long! I'm super excited about Karaoke! I love singing for a bunch of drunk people. Not only do I look better when you're drunk, but I sound exactly the same when I sing. The bartenders here are all really nice and they are quick to get you a drink. It is cash only like so many other places, but they have an ATM machine inside and there is another one at the liquor store nearby. It is a dive bar but it's fun and clean...well as clean as a dive...
