The Blackthorn has a great DJ and Specials
by jczkids at Citysearch
Check out the Blackthorn Tavern either Thursday or Saturday night. They feature great drink specials on Thursday. Thursday night is "Colledge Night w/ DJ Trip" . DJ Trip is the former resident DJ from the Holy Cow's Thursday night party. He blends a mix of 80's, 90's, Hip hop, R&B, House, Current Dance, and Rock. They also have killer drink specials, like a pre-determined $1 Beer and buy one well drink get one free. By far the best party in SF on a Thursday or Saturday night. The women are hot the bar staff is friendly and the music rocks.
- Pros: Great music, dancing, pool table and an outdoor smoking patio.
- Cons: none
