Mellow Place to Hang

by kcj65

I've been to SNOB a bunch of times and always have a good time. The wine list is ok, but it changes often enough that I find something I like. It is not the best selection but it is a good place to hang out. I find myself there on Saturdays a lot when I get off work. The bartender is really cool and not bad to look at. I think the owner only hires girls since I haven't seen a guy behind the bar since they opened. They let you order in food from the Thai place next door. Definately a plus. Check this place out. Don't expect top quality wines but decent.

Polk Gulch wine bar with mellow, rustic atmosphere.

In Short
Candlelit oak dominates the decor at this handsome Polk Street hideaway, from the rough-hewn wine barrel furnishings to the gleaming, polished bar. Though named in reference to wine-growing regions, "snob" could very easily mean "south of Nob Hill" -- with a totally un-snobby attitude to match. Friendly, knowledgeable staff guides patrons through the ever-growing list of carefully chosen varietals and small-batch, boutique wines. Nut and cheese plates are available, or order delivery from a local restaurant.
