Editorial Review for Fly Bar – by Daniel Liszt
The Scene
This north-of-the-panhandle bar bridges the gap between hippie Haight Street and yuppie Pac Heights. On the outside street corner, it's common to see 20- and 30-somethings sharing cigarettes, and this communal vibe spills into Fly's cozy interior. The bar's purple and burgundy walls are hung with artwork, including a mural by the back pool table. Ceiling fans, a lone TV and festive, star-shaped, piñata-style lamps create an eclectic vibe.
The Draw
Service is extremely friendly, whether staff are serving pizzas or pouring sangria pitchers. There's plenty of seating in the front and back, including pea-green booths and thrift-store movie seats. The front tables offer good people-watching (onto Divisadero and Fulton). When evening comes, flirtatious singles exchange boisterous banter and not-so-veiled glances.

Insider Tips
Save MoneyThe menu draws a steady after-work crowd for happy hour (Mon-Fri, open to 5:30pm; Sat-Sun, open to 6:30pm). Deals include half-off puffy pizzas and $3 sangria, sake cocktails or draft beer.
What to DrinkThis hangout does not serve hard alcohol, but makes up for it with a host of inventive sake cocktails. Highlights include the smoothie-like 50 (sake, pineapple juice, soy milk) and tangy Chiwawa (sake, sangria, pineapple juice, orange juice).

Been coming to this place for years. The staff rocks, the neighborhood crew is killer, and the food and drinks are a perfect fit.
