Guys, this bar has a great vibe, 5-star service, the atmosphere is super awesome, this bar makes me feel at home

The bartender seemed very underwhelmed by our presence but he made me a good cocktail. But I'm here to tell ya the spicy chicken sandwich was not as expected. It had a thick layer of spices. Not spicy sauce. A thick layer of spices with a strong note of cinnamon. I couldn't take a 4th mouthful of this spice paste. Imagine coating a chicken patty in curry paste. That's the texture of this spicy cinnamon paste. Blegh. Loaded curly fries were to die for tho but prob wouldn't go back. read more

Burger and fries were tasty. Food came really quick. Fries portions are pretty big but burger a little small. Atmosphere was okay. I may come back not sure. Service was okay. read more

Afterwork Bar - Fried chicken sandwich, garlic fries, cheese fries, super burger - Cocktail Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

Quick summary: I thought Afterwork bar was a great lowkey spot. I came here originally intending to go to Fig & Thistle but their outdoor seating was full. However, Afterwork had availability and the bar caught my eye on the way to Fig and Thistle. I came here with a friend to catch up and grab a few drinks but the apps looked good. I like the casual atmosphere and ambiance. It's a great spot to grab drinks with friends especially if you're looking to kick off the night especially given how centrally AFterwork bar is located. read more

Stopped by for a quick snack and drink. Only had French fries and tater tots, which were good. The margaritas were great! The price was fantastic and service was quick and friendly. read more

Good for happy hour - Loaded tots or nachos $5 (but really small so it's not really a deal) Super duper burgers or The Bird chicken sandwiches if you're a fan (again really small for the price) Would come only if close by and wanted to watch the game with friends but other than that, wouldn't recommend. Also very loud inside so not a place to catch up with a friend! read more

Was able to find some standing room on a game day. Food came out fast. Fried chicken was delicious. Service friendly despite being crazy busy. Ordering system is easy! read more

A fun place to hangout in a large group! I love the picnic table seating in the back with all the different games as well. I went to Afterwork literally after work and it wasn't difficult to find a spot but definitely got crowded as we got a bit further into the night ~7. The food here is tasty, serving up favorites from The Bird and Super Duper which pair perfectly with the drinks here. Not the strongest but honestly I really enjoyed the flavor! Would recommend coming in during happy hour for the best deals! read more

They totally blew it! My first time in... Sat down with some buddies, no menus, only a QR code for a menu. Ok, fine... I scan the QR, then it asks for my phone number and name. I'm not trying to sign up for anything, I just want to look at the fucking menu. My friend does all that and hands me his phone to read the menu, completely defeating the purpose of the touchless menu. Then we order, the food is good but my coke is empty. I go to the bar and stand there for 5 minutes with an obviously empty glass while the bartender chick chats with the bus boy while staring right at me. Fail. read more

Fried chicken sandwiches from The Bird, Super Duper burgers, tots, TVs, good music--what's not to like? After Dobbs Bar closed during the pandemic, I was pretty sad that Hayes no longer had a sports bar. It was a blessing in disguise because now The Bird and afterwork bar have opened in its place! Afterwork bar has a lot of seating options with TVs both outside and inside. Will for sure plan on coming here when basketball season starts. read more

See all

The Philly burger was good, our server was nice and quick . I recommend this place for there food.

I love that Hayes Valley has a new bar! And it's a really chill and laid-back bar with decently priced burgers, chicken sandos, fries, and drinks. Sometimes you don't need a fancy $$$ wine bar or cocktails spot, you know? Nice decor, friendly service, trivia Wednesdays. My only complaint is that the service was painfully slow on the Friday that I went. read more

My new favorite bar. This hidden gem is a must try for the sports and cocktail enthusiast. The wait staff is friendly and attentive. read more

Afterwork Bar - Holiday Cocktail, milled cider! Yummy - Cocktail Bars Near Me - San Francisco, California

This was honestly one of the worst dining/drinking experiences I've had in San Francisco. My table and I ordered 'tequila sodas', and ordered a few more after we were done eating. Our server ended up charging us for 6 don JULIO BLANCOS (which cost $17 each). When asked why this was the case, they said that we never asked for "well" tequila sodas, and that their standard tequila soda drink was always a Don Julio. They ended up charging the table almost $55 extra. When I told them that this should have been clarified, our server rudely told us that it was not on her and that it was my problem because I didn't specify. We all felt completely swindled by this, and honestly couldn't believe that this was the experience we had. Will never be coming back here again. True con artists. I've relayed this experience to every bartender/server I've seen since and they are equally shocked at the dishonesty of this place. Also, side note, the fried chicken sandwich was definitely undercooked. read more

Wow check this place out went for the Euro cup! Go England had the wings and a burger both were awesome read more

Great spot for a chill happy hour! Came here with some old coworkers to find plenty of seating indoor and outdoor, great music, TVs playing all the games, good drinks and snacks. Can't go wrong with happy hour wings and loaded tots. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a casual spot to meet up with friends! read more

Great place, good food, good vibe, great place to watch games and do game nights. Edward is here 6 days a week and he's welcoming, accommodating, and so friendly and kind. read more

Solid place to watch the NBA finals! Orlando took such good care of us! He seriously made the experience. The fries and chicken sandwich was bomb. I'm from la and I would definitely return read more

Went here after work bc duh it's in the name and I was very happy with service & the food. I had the spicy chicken sandwich with French fries and it hit the spot. Especially since I've been looking for a spicy chicken in the city since moving here back in July. Definitely worth going!!! read more

A waste or commercial real estate, stay away. Bartender was so rude after spending several hundred dollars in drinks and he couldn't be bothered to help or be interested in being nice. Also at 12AM all the employees ran throughout the bar rudely kicking people out saying, "we want to go drink too, get out!" read more

The bartenders were very rude. The drinks and food was fine though the experience was ruined for us.

Great spot to watch sports and great food options as well. Has been our go to spot for sports games in Hayes.

Soggy cold nachos. My friend waited over forty five minutes for his beer and my other friend never got his even though he paid for it. To be avoided at all costs. read more

The name of the bar says it all. It really is the perfect spot for grabbing a drink for after work with a fantastic happy hour. If looking for just that, easily a 5 star review. However, with so many good restaurants and bars in the area, I'd suggest checking out somewhere else once you're done with drinks and apps. Our food (wings/chicken sandwich/tots/burger) was served luke warm and came out sporadically making it hard to eat together. At least the staff was very friendly and their system to order food/drinks made it even more convenient for grabbing a quick drink for happy hour. read more

The name is SO fitting becaaauuseeee ... I literally landed at this bar on a Monday evening after overtiming at work. And ... I just needed a drink! All the restaurants in the area were closed, packed or not quite the ambiance for one person looking to just ... drink for dinner - without judgments. I initially felt like I was settling ... but NO! Stop by. CHECK IT OUT. Bartenders are friendly and having a good time. It was a complete sausage fest because the game was on, and I didn't get hit on once. And that's always nice for a girl alone a bar. Sports bar, meets a low key craft cocktail bar. Non-ambitious, football game was on and just what I needed to unwind. And that's absolutely what a bar/restaurant experience is all about! Try the red coupe, yuzu and wings, for sure. read more

Average bar. average food. Reserve places at the bar for hours and do not let anyone sit there?

Great happy hour bar! Mikey is an amazing bartender, super friendly. Love that it's connected to The Bird..perfect spot for a couple drinks and fried chicken sando. One suggestion: the faucets in the bathrooms are super short and you have to scrape your hands on the sink to wash them. Feels like an easy fix. Go to this bar and have fun! read more

Veggie burger is bomb and packed for the giants game! Waitstaff is friendly and great selection of spirits and beer!

I hope this place doesn't get too popular! Lots of TVs, great food, and the most reasonably priced beers in the city! We love it. We need more sports bars in San Francisco. Definitely recommend the chicken sandwich. read more

Had a great time hanging at the bar eating delicious super duper / the bird food and chatting / taking shots with the nice and fun bartenders read more

Zach and Nick made our experience extremely enjoyable, they were extremely accommodating and attentive to our outside table. Despite the rain and cold, they made our experience memorable! Amazing, would recommend 10/10 read more

We went on a Sunday evening and it was relatively empty. The staff had unpleasant attitudes and the food was alright but nothing special.

Well the lack of customer service has struck After Work Bar. A friend and I went in for some beers and some food, the place is basic and easy. Sat up to the bar against the wall, the place was slow and the bar empty except for a couple at the other end so we had our run of the bar. Ordered a couple beers and relaxed. Finished those and ordered a couple more and asked for the menu. We were almost done with those beers and the bartender put down a reserved placard where we were sitting. I asked him what up with the placard and he said we have an old regular coming in. We didn't think anything of it and ordered 2 more beers. When the beers came the manager walks over and says "You guys gotta move". I asked him why and he pointed at the placard and said this seat is reserved. I explained that we were sitting here 2 beers before this placard was put up and the rest of the bar is wide open. He said you gotta move now! We got up, left our new beers and left. We will neve go back to any of their restaurants, too bad because we both live local and spend a lot of money in those establishments. This could have been handled with some class and the manager could have just said, do you guys mind moving over a couple so our regular could have his seat and we would have done it in a heartbeat....... But nope, the lack of hospitality from management level is sick. read more

Easy to grab a seat spot. Bright and welcoming. Waitress was very friendly and helpful. Ordered quickly but took about 10min to get my beer brought over which was long for a spot not very full. My loaded tots were good. Super flavorful but could have been cooked a little longer for crispyness but would order again if I came through. Ordered another beer and watched as the guys behind the bar were having issues with the tap. Tried a few times but no go. 10+ minutes fo by and I never saw the waitress. Finally she emerges and she helps someone else and walks away so I have to raise my voice to even get her attention. I ask for the bill and inform her my 2nd drink didn't show. No apologies or anything then proceeds to bring me the bill with the cost of the beer still on it. Disappointing first try here with the lack of attention to customers while the other owner/bar tender was just hanging out with people he knew. read more

When this place first opened, they called themselves the new sports bar in Hayes Valley. I'm not a fan of the Hayes Valley area (I call it Marina south) but I wanted to check out this new sports bar and they were serving Super Duper burgers. Well, we got there and as soon as I walked in, I saw two TVs and nothing on the walls that says "sports bar." Hmm. The music they had on was probably the worst kind of music I've ever heard. They sat us against the wall where I did see some sports memorabilia and it was all bobbleheads from the Giants. That was it. At least they had the Giants game on but, the weird thing was nobody (besides me) had any Giants gear on or paying attention to the game. The serive was bad as well. They took forever to come up to us. It took a long time to get our beers too. About 20 minutes. They let dogs inside the place and this one dog next to us kept shaking and you can see the dog hairs flying around in the air and of course, guess what all that hair was landing on. We had to cover our drinks with napkins so we don't drink dog hair. Anyway, we got our burgers, watched the game and the game was over. All of sudden, they turned off both TVs. I told a server that the A's game was next (Giants played early) and she said after the game we turn off the TVs. I then asked her, "I thought this was a sports bar." She laughed and walked away. Awful! The service was bad. The burger was mediocre and the place was not the newest "sports bar" in Hayes Valley, but it was the new place for yuppies and techies. Skip this place unless you like no atmosphere, dog hair in your drinks and food, bad music, bad service, mediocre food and don't like sports. read more

A casual spot with excellent cocktails, and warm, friendly, and attentive service. Love the loaded tater tots and curly fries. My Boulevardier was delicious. read more

I Came in for some drinks and food last week with co workers for a little holiday get together. The staff where super nice and got our food out really fast which was nice because I was starving. Great place to grab a drink or watch a foot ball game. I will definitely be returning! read more
