I came in to support a friend's DJ set during a slower part of the night. The DJ briefly invited me behind the booth to show me the setup, and a bartender immediately started yelling at me instead of addressing it professionally. Considering how few people were there, the reaction felt unnecessarily aggressive and more like a power trip than anything else. Not a place I'd return to. read more

Our company was located down the street from the spot. Definitely good memories here. Great customer service and amazing beer.

Terrible service. Decent music but bartenders can handle the work so it's a terrible experience

THIS PLACE IS NOT OPEN ANYMORE. As many people stated we came on a Sunday at Noon and the place was completely shut down. Apparently they do this every Sunday. Be in mind it's the middle of the NFL playoffs and why they would decide to close during peak hours is beyond me. read more

BuzzWorks - CLOSED ON SUNDAY AT NOON - Arcades Near Me - San Francisco, California

Was the place to be once upon a time. Beers were decent but now they longer have arcade games. Replaced by overcrowded pool tables.

Friendly people working there, reasonable prices. My wife loves that they've become a Chiefs bar too. Good selection of beer with some ciders, seltzer, and a non alcoholic beer. I recommend against the cocktails - clearly not an emphasis here. read more

BuzzWorks - Bar with chiefs playing - Arcades Near Me - San Francisco, California

This place was closed during Sunday NFL Day Games (11-16-25). But said it was open. Did it shutdown??? Website and Yelp says it opens at 10:00 AM, we got here at 12:00 PM and it was closed. read more

What a great spot to relax with friends! The atmosphere was fun without being overwhelming, and the drinks were on point. Shoutout to the bartender! Corey had such an easygoing vibe and really made sure our group was taken care of the whole night. It felt like he knew exactly when to check in without hovering. Definitely planning to come back soon! read more

We are chiefs fans and we're excited to have some drinks and check out the game and once we arrived, there wasn't very many people there, but we went inside anyways excited to watch the game and unfortunately the bartender appeared to be drunk and rudely said he didn't have what he needed to make a bloody Mary when I could clearly see the bloody Mary mix prepped and ready on the bar. I assumed he was too lazy to do so and then his friend/the DJ? Was so drunk he was slurring his words talking to me. It was a hot mess. It was hot inside. There was a huge fan, which would've been nice for everyone that was watching the game, but the fan was directed at the bartender so the good news is that he was comfortable. Disappointed that such a place with the potential to be great was a zero in my book. Won't be back. Go Chiefs!! read more

Had a great time at Buzzworks when watching the Chiefs game this weekend. This is a KC bar through and through, so if you come during Gameday, expect some loud and rowdy guests. But it's all in good fun. It wasn't actually too busy when we were there, but I assume it does get busier for more important games. We were able to easily find plenty of seating for everyone. They have KC specialty beers that you can't get anywhere else, which is a very pleasant surprise for KC natives. However I have to say I was a little disappointed when I ordered a diet coke and it was a can instead of a refillable glass. My only true critique of the place is the lack of any type of food. When you sit there for four hours, you are bound to get hungry, and although they allow outside food, there aren't many places around to get any. If it did have some snacks, it would be the perfect Gameday bar. read more

BuzzWorks - Inside - Arcades Near Me - San Francisco, California

First time here as a football fan while I was also attending the Folsom Street Fair, and this spot stood out as the go-to sports bar in the area. Corey, the bartender, was fantastic--friendly, accommodating, and handled a packed bar solo with ease. He balanced multiple game requests, while handling the drink requests, even putting on RedZone alongside the main game, which many appreciated. Only downside was a couple of overly loud Chiefs fans who made it uncomfortable when the game was changed briefly during their commercial breaks. While it may be a Chiefs bar, the crowd was diverse due to the event, and Corey did a great job trying to please everyone. A little more respect from some regulars would go a long way. Overall, a solid experience! read more

We showed up at almost noon on a Sunday,after seeing several reviews about what a great place to watch sunday football. The place was closed. I tried to email and call with no response. Later we were informed a bartender had an emergency and tried to make us feel guilty for being a little annoyed they were closed. After further thought i find it odd a bar of this size would have to close for an entire day due to one employee having an emergency. Im not insensitive to emergency it just seemed odd read more

This review is for all fans of Real Madrid. Madridista Asi Asi Asi gana el madrid. Love it. As a Real Madrid fan, I loved the atmosphere here, what an absolute game to watch here at buzzworks, it was spectacular game and the crowd were amazing here. Real sport fan bar club. The roofs were on the go when the Madrid won the game and the crowd were amazing. Get your light drinks before you get in and grab the seats and top floor has the best viewing of the game. Even if you stand and watch its still the best view from the top floor. Watching a soccer game, stay put because you never know. Cheers to all the Buzz Works crew, did a great job and handled the crowd very well. Hala Madrid! Champions read more

BuzzWorks is hands down the best place in San Francisco to watch the Chiefs! Huge screen, tons of TVs, and the sound is always on -- even for those early 10 AM games. Great energy, awesome beer selection (they even have Boulevard on draft!), and Nick behind the bar always takes care of everyone. Perfect spot for Chiefs Kingdom! read more

Great place to watch the Chiefs. The beer selection is fantastic, especially the Boulevard beer. Every time I come Corey takes good care of me and my friends. It's so nice to have a familiar face every Sunday. One time, he even had one of the other bartenders goto Costco to grab some Bloody Mary Mix for me. read more

Was in town for the playoff game between the Chiefs and Jags and didn't want to miss the game. My cousin, who lives in the area said that Buzzworks was the official Chiefs bar in the Bay. Headed in about halftime while the 49ers were playing. It was completely full of 49er fans and a few people with KC attire. It was standing room only. As soon as that game was over it started clearing out and all the Chiefs decor went up. It was a blast! It felt like being in KC! Buzzworks only serves drinks but there is a pizza stand outside and you can bring food in which is great. I just wish I knew that before hand! The service was friendly but you had to go to the bar to get your drinks. Fortunately the Chiefs won so it was a big celebration! read more

The bartenders and servers Corey and Andrew were amazing. Great service! Matthew Coe and Chris Paul were amazing comedians I will definitely be at their next gig! Buzz works was a wonderful venue. read more

Great place to watch sports! The best part is that they play the sound!! I hate watching sports with no sound. This bar gets it. There are two levels and one main bar area. Decent selection of craft beers. You are also allowed to bring outside food. They also have arcade games. Overall great place to hang with friends. Would recommend. read more

BuzzWorks - a sports bar with a large screen - Arcades Near Me - San Francisco, California

Nice huge screens and great bartenders, but they need to add hooks to put our bags and coats underneath the countertop. Any decent pub should have these hooks to hang our purses on, so we don't have to place them on top of the bar in the way of everything. I suggested that they add these hooks last year when the Niners were in the playoffs, and this year they still haven't added any. Adding these hooks to hang stuff up would change my rating from 2 to four (4) stars. read more

Very interesting vibe here. Excellent beer selection and a diverse crowd Great spot to meet new people and have some unique conversations Love coming here fore sporting events during the week! read more

This spot is so great, I ended up here twice back to back on the same weekend! First of all, the bartenders are awesome! On my first visit, the bartender recommended a couple drinks for me and I found one of my new favorites: Boochcraft Grapefruit Hibiscus Heather ($7.50 for 10oz). If you like a fruity cider type of drink, this is a must! On my second visit, the new bartender I had remembered me to close out my tab without even mentioning my name --very personable. The other perks of this spot is their huge space and high ceilings. They have two pool tables upstairs for $1 per game. It was so much fun to play on a date night and with a huge group of friends. There's also a row of arcade pinball machines, but those were a bit pricier at $2 per game. Lastly, they also have some food options for you. I tried the Joe Thornton ($6) and Stephen Curry ($7) Hot Panini from my friends. To be honest, I'd skip on the paninis as they were just rather okay. I did really enjoyed the Chips and Queso ($3), which was a crowd favorite that we had to make another order. Overall, super fun spot to hang around with some drinks and games. For more food options, it's walkable to SOMA StrEat Food Park with a rotating group of food trucks after some drinks. read more

Such a cool vibe and great place to see live entertainment! The comedians, Matthew Coe and Chris Paul were hilarious and so talented. Great service from Cory and Andrew at the bar. We'll be back! read more

I was at the comedy night and it was so much fun. But the best part was the service Cory and Andrew made the room feel warm and welcoming even though I was new and didn't know anyone. The drinks are reasonably Priced, and the vibe is great because of the staff. The show was fun but, me and my friends will come to watch sports on the giant big screen because of the staff!!! The comedy was a good time always good to se live show of anything!!! read more

Great sports bar, lots of seats and screens. Good selection of beers and you can bring in outside food. There's pizza next door and Costco around the block. read more

Great comedy shows. Matthew Coe is a comedic genius. We had a great time -Julian and Jake

Saw "My Therapist Knows Your Name" here - such a funny set. Bartenders were attentive and great, crowd had a great energy. Loved it and will be back! read more

The greatest place in Sf to share a drink and good conversation with old friends and new friends

Quick take: Crowded, lively, and fun This place looks like a huge open space from upstairs. We were invited to a private party that was being hosted upstairs. We arrived during the second quarter of a Chargers vs Chiefs game. Wow, this place was packed and very festive. We made our way upstairs. There is a huge area upstairs that was closed for a private even. Plenty of space to hang out. Counter and bar stools along the back walls. A pool table and a lot of TV's. Food was catered by DNA pizza which is located next door. One bar located downstairs. I saw 3 bartenders while I was downstairs. We were able to order our beers pretty fast. read more

Great beer! Will definitely need to head back soon to drink through the rest of their beer list!

I love this place for 2 main reasons, one being that they have a ton of space and a plentiful amount of TV's. Second of all, they have great food - not just default bar food but it's actually delicious. This place is also a decent location in regards to fidi, just a short walk from your office, perfect for going to after work! read more

Dope place to watch sports at! Saw the Warriors game six here against Boston and place was lit! Lots of ppl, highly recommend getting there early if you're going to some type of finals game like I did so you can secure a table and/or seats for you and your crew or else you'll be standing the whole time. Would also recommend that they get some type of air ventilation or something on the upstairs level cause it was definitely HOT up there and anyone could def feel like they're passing out. They didn't have any food when I went, but Costco was right across the street so many ppl just picked up some pizza and brought it over. Highly recommend and will be going back! Plus, beer selection is good read more

The beer selection was underwhelming. The bar service was slow and lacking. The place was not clean either. I won't be back.

This place has been amazing to watch the Warriors games! My husband and I have been coming here for every game! Drinks are also well priced and the place has a great vibe! Definitely 5 stars from me! read more

GOAL!!!! Soccer Time!!! Lol... I don't watch sports, but we had a great time... Boy, they've got a selection of tap beers along with liquor. Anyway, It's a good size establishment with monitors galore, clean bathrooms, attentive staff, and 2 pool tables upstairs. The Negative: They are only open on the weekends. Also, DJ Music and Dancing would be a nice touch. I'm not sure if they serve food or just can't recall. We started early and finished the night in that area. Now, would I return, Ummm, Yes! Very Nice Establishment. read more

Found this hidden gem in the city. One of the best sports bars I've been to in SF! So spacious and so many TV's with a variety of beers to choose from. Most sports bars in the city are so tiny and fill up really fast. BuzzWorks has so much room and so many TV's around that I feel it's almost the perfect place for game day. I can't believe I didn't discover this place sooner. Marking this as one of my new go to sports bars. (Maybe I should take down this review so I could keep this place a secret all to myself) read more

Chris Paul and Matthew Coe were excellent comedians! I would definitely see them again. The service (Cory and Andrew) went above and beyond. It was a packed house!! read more

40 beers on tap. DNA pizza delivered. Attractive bartenders. Pinball and pool tables. Flabongo. Get your ass over there. read more

BuzzWorks - Yaaaa! - Arcades Near Me - San Francisco, California

Came here during the NBA finals with Warriors against the Raptors. I was shocked to see how many raptors fan came to this sports bar. This day in particular was crowded all around. Given the fact that they're a two story bar, every square inch was taken up by another being lol. On the contrary, I've been here during its slow happy hour days as well. It can a be laid back area to hangout especially with the pool table upstairs. Great place to kill some time after work. read more

The 'My therapist knows your name' comedy show was amazing. Great venue with nice beer selection
