pink was SUPER small before they opened up the area next door. unfortunately, to keep structural integrity they had to keep most of the wall in between and use a "window" area to give a feel openess (imagine a u-shaped venue; can be difficult to get to the bathroom, coatcheck or other side of the bar). they also finally upgraded their ventilation which without it, the place used to be as hot as hades. but still, on crowded nights (both fridays AND saturdays) it gets pretty sweaty in there. the music is varied and can be slightly commercial or a bit underground depending on the promoters/dj's so i recommend checking their website to be sure about the music you're getting yourself into. again, i've been a regular at pink so i never had any issues but maybe it's the french attitude that rubs people the wrong way (the owner's and many of the employees are french). the drinks are average but you can always "car-bar" it or stop by the liquor store a few yards away. all in all, try the place out since it seems to be 1 of the places to be in s.f. (btw, LOTS of attractive people attend this place)
Pros: good dance music, attractive clientele
Cons: can get overly crowded & hot, no real room to dance, venue layout
