Featured Review

There are plenty of wine bars in the city, but never before have oenophiles been able to experience Napa-style wine tastings one short, tie-loosening walk away from work. Eight California wineries--from one of the oldest (Chateau Montelena, subject of the film Bottle Shock) to some of today's most popular (Saintsbury, whose tasting counter seems to always bustle with sport coats and dresses)--each host their own bar within this high-gloss, soft light and dark wood underground wine shrine on the posh Yerba Buena Lane promenade. While each winery has a five-year lease on space at Press Club,…

Editor's Tips

The Extras:
A large private dining room seats up to 20 guests and can be booked for private functions with a full catering option if required.
Fun Fact:
The large photographic prints on the walls are all close-ups of the featured wineries' vineyards.
Save Money:
If you belong to clubs for any of the participating wineries, your discount privileges will also be valid for any of their wines that you buy here.
Parking:
Head a block south to 5th and Mission Streets to a city-owned parking garage that runs about $3 per hour.
When to Go:
Press Club opens at 11am everyday---though don't expect to catch a buzz until 2pm Sunday through Thursday. The first three hours (Fridays and Saturdays excepted) are for retail customers only.

Perfect date spot

Contributor at Citysearch

Once you step in and see the decor, you know you're in for a treat. The service is great and the prices are reasonable. But the ambiance of this place is second to none. This is the most Unique winebar I've ever been to. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's the most visually stunning and best reviewed wine bar in America.

This is the best wine bar in San Francisco!

by JCSR at Citysearch

If you are really looking to taste a fantastic selection of wines in the city, this is the place. Super cool loungie feel while you sip to your heart's delight. Great service, great small bites, awesome wine. Go there.

  • Pros: Amazing selection of wines and fantasic lounge feel
  • Cons: Hard to find the first time - check the map on their website

Only for wine tasting -- not a place to enjoy a drink

by 23go at Citysearch

This is great place if you want to spend $10 to "taste" 1 wine -- that's 3 small sips of wine. At least when you go to Napa you get more value. Would have loved to have been able to order a glass of wine but that isn't an option.

Just wait... Press Club is worth it!

by rockngal at Citysearch

This place will knock your socks off! Its absolutly beautiful and unique! A wine lovers dream. Tired of making trips to Wine Country to discover good wines? Every now and again, its worth the drive for the senery, but those who don't have wheels, or don't want to spend $$ on gas, Press Club is for you! More to come when it becomes open to the public (should be soon). I was fortunate to attend a private event there and got a super sneak peek of what's to come... Im welcoming Press Club to San Francisco with open arms...
