The drinks were creative plus delicious while the atmosphere felt lively and inviting. The energy in the room made it impossible not to dance, with music that kept the night exciting. This place is perfect for anyone looking for a fun, unforgettable evening.

My favorite bar in SF! It is the place to dance at, no matter what genre. In Madrone's I trust 🙏🏼! Every night is a great night and the crowd genuinely wants to dance. Great djs, cocktails and crowd.

Fun bar with dancing and stiff drinks. Nice, lively crowd having a good time on a Friday night. We liked how the bar was visually rich - there was always a video of an old 90’s movie or interesting object (like the crucifixes behind the bar) to look at. The DJ was not very good at his craft, but everyone still enjoyed themselves.

A great neighborhood music venue on Divisadero, Always a good time. I didn't eat there but food looked and smelled good. The entertainment was fabulous. Eric McFadden and RonKat Spearman from P funk made a special appearance along with other fine musicians.

Had several delicious drinks made by Chris. I had the Beat Guess, Steve McQueen and Sam Spade in that order. We arrived when it opened so it was empty and I was able to check out all the various items throughout the bar. Super kitsch; loved it. We weren't there long enough for any live music but I think the vibe is probably great for an open mic or small acoustic set.

Madrone Art Bar we attended Fringe night, the glowing cat ears and the music with visuals was definitely a unique experience in a vast sea of options in San Franciscos nightlife. It was really fun dancing around inside the bar with friends and the outside smoking area was both perfect for chilling and meeting new friendly faces. I'm not sure about their other theme nights but I'm certain that I'll be back for Fringe night.
