The food here was such a huge highlight of our San Francisco trip !! After a long day exploring the city we overestimated the amount of time we had to go grab clam chowder at boudins. What originally started as a disappointment became a huge blessing once we found the board room. Feet aching, sweaty, and tired we made our way to this bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Immediately you could tell it's a local favorite, the ambiance was nice and a great spot to people-watch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was a cup flipping event which was super fun to spectate, along side the rotating pictures of the bar's beloved pooches[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . We ordered 2 western burgers, 12 count bone-in wings (half bbq, half Hawaiian), and an appetizer of corn dogs, tater tots, bacon Mac & cheese bites, and mozzarella sticks. Later we also added boneless buffalo wings which were so tangy, well-seasoned, and HOT. The western bacon burgers were so delicious, crispy bacon, crispy onion rings, and some bomb.com bbq sauce. The wings were drowned in sauce (just how we like them) , the bbq was to die for and the Hawaiian had the perfect little kick of spice for our picky eaters. The appetizer platter was also fried to perfection, with the perfect crunch on the tater tots & corn dogs. The Mac & cheese bites & mozzarella sticks were perfectly cheesed, with an amazing cheese pull on the mozzarella sticks. Along with the food, my boyfriend and I ordered some drinks. I got a margarita and he got a Guinness. Both drinks were good, very standard and well served. The couple behind the bar were very funny and super kind to us being dazed after all the walking. On our way back down to SoCal my brother is still raving about the burgers, this is a MUST-STOP the next time we come up to San Francisco!! read more

The door old grumpy has to go , he was rude we tried to come back in after we ordered food while we're dinning in they sent our order to go and we have to pickup on the side door... Jim was so rude but angel helped us , he is an amazing guy... Now I love him , thanks so much for taking care of all of us. We are coming back read more

I came by to catch the World Cup game. Cool spot to catch a game cause they have TVs all across the bar and in the back. Happy hour from 4-7 pm. $3 beers in can, few food items. Got charged for full nachos and totchos but ordered during hh time. The bartender was nice and refunded. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When it's crowded it gets stuffy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Only 1 restroom. Street parking and garages. read more

Went here for happy hour (this might be the only one that generously runs til 7) and a game (alright, more for the happy hour)! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The prices were a steal and the vibes were comfy - enough energy and people around but not rowdy at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We tried: - tatchos: a mountain of tots with nacho toppings - the crossover we didn't know we needed - churros: fresh and warm, perfect with vanilla ice cream - bacon-wrapped tots: they speak for themselves - I'm not a huge beer drinker so I got a long drink, which is a gin + citrus soda combo - perfect crisp fresh complement to the food A very happy hour indeed! read more

I went to the boardroom with my friend Zach. We watched the Germany game and there was a lot of German fans in that room. Unfortunately, for them, the Germans came up short. The Guinness, however, did not come up short. Definitely would recommend the boardroom. (Plz get a lunch menu) read more

Elevated Vibes & Exceptional Hospitality The Boardroom is one of those rare spots that manages to feel both upscale and completely unpretentious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the sleek, moody ambiance dim lighting, plush seating, and a vibe that says "stay awhile."[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's the kind of place where every detail feels intentional, from the curated cocktail list to the smooth jazz humming in the background.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But what truly made the night stand out was Adam. He was an absolutely attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. Whether it was recommending the perfect bourbon or just checking in with genuine care, Adam made us feel like VIPs without ever being over the top. You can tell he takes pride in creating a memorable experience. The drinks were expertly crafted (the smoked old fashioned was a standout and don't forget the espresso martini), and the small plates were just as impressive elevated comfort food with a creative twist. If you're looking for a place to unwind, a date, or just treat yourself to a night of great service and even better cocktails, The Boardroom delivers. And if you're lucky enough to be served by Adam, you're in for a five-star experience. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Boardroom is such a fun sports bar![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came here with friends to watch the first NBA finals game. I got their boneless wings with buffalo sauce. They came with ranch and the chicken portion was substantial!! Almost couldn't finish these, but they were so good and the buffalo sauce was delicious! I also got the mini nachos from their happy hour menu, but these were anything but mini. The portion of these was also very generous and I couldn't finish them. They came loaded up with beans, cheese, pickled onions and peppers. These were really good too! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were lots of TVs inside and also TVs outside too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll definitely return here to watch sports games in the future! read more

Went there because my daughter suggested it to watch WC games. Wasn't expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised. Despite the crowd of people, the staff was friendly, helpful and courteous. The food was pretty good and typical bar fare. The drink menu was as adventurous as you wanted to go. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It wasn't fancy, it was crowded and loud, but a helluva a good time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you aren't looking for 5 star cuisine and like what pairs with ice cold beer...they got you. read more

Overall great experience! We came here as a group of 12 for trivia night on Tuesday. Got there around 7 (trivia starts at 730) and we just got lucky to snag the last open table. You can still participate in trivia but it starts to become standing room only after 7! They recommend getting there as early as 6:15 for a guaranteed table. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Our group ended up having to split into two, so just a note if you're coming with a lot of people (perfect opportunity for some friendly competition haha)![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As for the trivia topics itself, there was: movies, music, general, mystery theme & some sports related questions sprinkled in. The host was overall well-versed in the topics but some of his comments felt unnecessary and a little unhinged (which seems to be a common trend based off other reviews on here too). He overheard one of the team's guesses and essentially put them on blast through the mic, announcing to everyone "No, it's not the f***ing hokey pokey". Another time he made a comment about it starting to rain and papers started getting wet... related it to himself... and what happens when girls see him... you get the gist. The food was a very reasonable price & enjoyable. We got quesadillas, salads, and nachos to share. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, this place is a great location for trivia! Lots of room, not just a cramped bar, and no outrageous prices just to participate![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

There is an older overweight ponytailed bouncer that is so incredibly aggressive he is doing this place a disservice. Screamed at my friends for not showing ID outside before even ordering a drink. One person had an e-cig outdoors and let me tell you this drama queen of a bouncer got so upset he kicked us out and followed us to the next bar to try and tell that bouncer not to let us in. Didn't work for him... super embarrassing for boardroom and him. Yikes read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Ample seating inside and out, good sized happy hour, brisk, friendly service, and decent bar food (though I would avoid the buffalo red hot flavored chicken options).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tots are great and many TVs to watch sports.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Don't know why they have limited number menus but doesn't take away from the welcoming nature of this place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Came by on a Thursday around 8pm! I tend to try the tater tots at bars if they have them, and I think the tots here are the best I've had! Perfectly crispy and a good portion as well! If you're a sauce person, I will say that I think there's not enough ketchup provided for the amount of tots you get. Haven't tried their drinks yet, but would definitely recommend the food! read more

Im giving this place 5 stars because [[HIGHLIGHT]]the vibes rocked[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], my food was good but mostly because they fed my dog a plate of bacon. Me and my friend came for dinner pretty late at night, [[HIGHLIGHT]]it was pretty empty and there was plenty of space for us and my dog[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I got the tomato/arugula/burrata sandwich--no complaints. What I really fucked with was the sweet potato waffle fries and ranch...crispy and so good. My friend got the tacos. She's notoriously picky in my opinion and wasn't really a big fan. She said it tasted like the meat sauce you put in spaghetti but it's literally beef and she knew that when she ordered it so I don't know what to tell her lmfao. Idk I don't fucking eat meat. She confirmed they were indeed crispy. anyways, the queen behind the bar delivered not just a water bowl for my dog, but also some BACON STRIPS. man had the best feast of his life. Thanks boardroom, whenever I come back to SF next, I'd def come back to you ! read more

This is specifically a review for the Tuesday Trivia at 7:30pm! You need to make sure to get there pretty early if you want to snag a table, it was absolutely packed! But totally understand why, it was super fun and well organized! Winners get prizes ranging from $40 in bar credits to bottles of mini sparkling wine. In terms of food, the totchos felt the most worth for the price (huge portions for $10) as opposed to the burgers ($12-14). Ordering got a bit backed up so you do have to wait for a while, but the main star of the night is the trivia not the food. Definitely will come back again for the fun night! read more

While everyone who works here is amazing, I do need to give a special shout out to the best, most hospitable (and handsome) bartender here, Adam, who always finds ways to make people feel welcome. He wiill always remember your name. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Came here on a Sunday morning to watch the Liverpool game and the atmosphere was great![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The bartender, Cristen, was very attentive and made sure we were taken care of the whole time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lots of other Liverpool supporters were also watching the game here and made for a memorable time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would definitely recommend anyone to come here for a Reds match! Will be back again! read more

The Boardroom is one of my favorite bars in the city. If you're a Liverpool supporter there is no better place to watch the Reds. With a great staff of bartenders and a vibrant group of fans, it's impossible to have a bad time watching Liverpool here. And they're open for every game, even at 6am read more

Loved coming here every Tuesday night for trivia with friends. Best one in town. Love their game style here and their food selection is great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Only thing is seating fills up pretty quickly outside, especially heated tables- make sure to arrive early.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Miss playing trivia here! read more

Solid bar to watch games and enjoy some drinks and/or bar food. The food wasn't my favorite but everyone else in our group really liked it, so maybe it was just me being picky. It's fine for bar food I guess. Drinks were okay, but certainly nowhere near the best in the city. Service was okay, you have to order at the bar and sometimes it gets super busy. One of the bathrooms was out of order so it took a while to get into the other one, then when I did, drunk morons were yelling at me after literally 1 minute to get out. We were definitely some of the only people there that weren't absolutely hammered. Fun dive with TV's and indoor and outdoor seating. The food and drinks are just okay. Some of the patrons are a little out of hand, so be ready for that kind of crowd. read more

The bartenders are always GREAT at Boardroom, so this rating is not a reflection of them. This is for the manager who physically threatened multiple patrons at the bar this past Saturday. His own dog got loose and attacked a patron's dog and when they asked him to control his dog, he got in their face and started screaming, 'OH WE'RE GONNA FIGHT NOW! WE'RE GONNA FIGHT NOW!' He put his dogs away, came back outside to threaten the same table of people and when the rest of us started telling him how ridiculous he was being and laughing at him, he then threatened to punch a different patron and even went so far as to grab the malt vinegar condiment and threatened to pour it all over this ~25 year old kid (who was smart enough to grab the mustard and pop the top LOL). They legit had a condiment standoff. Anyway, the poor bouncer and bartenders couldn't really do anything because that's their BOSS and they want to keep their jobs. The manager eventually went back inside and just started drinking at the end of the bar casually as if nothing had happened, the bartenders offered free drinks to the patrons who were threatened by the manager. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Boardroom is a great place to watch sport games and have bites and beer.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I always go there for Liverpool games; they are open for early morning games.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service and atmosphere is amazing!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Had a wonderful time at the Boardroom a few months ago to watch a Warriors game with some friends. It was busy but not too packed, with seating and even screens outside for people to enjoy. Service was also pretty quick for a bar, not only for the drinks and getting the attention of the bartender, but even for the food. We ordered a loaded tots platter which was huge, we had trouble finishing it even though we were four. The tits were surprisingly perfect and crispy, with a healthy dosage of topping which made it even more delicious. With a nice atmosphere, good service, and reasonable prices, it was a really enjoyable bar. I'd definitely come back for other events. read more

Just a classic SF bar with decently priced beers, good food from the kitchen, and a no frills crowd on weekdays. Can't say much about the weekend crowd, but I appreciated watching some games and being able to down my beers and my burger without being bothered. Bartenders are great, and I never had to wait long to get my next beer. I'll be back on the quiet days for more brews. I also like their selection of taps, which is more evenly distributed than a lot of other joints that mainly just serve the IPA crowd. It's not the prettiest of places or the plushiest, but it will definitely do the trick. read more

Came here spontaneously when I was looking for a cafe and a place to pee while waiting for a friend at an appointment. Bartender was friendly and pleasant. Decided to order food because reviews said the bacon wrapped tots are the deal. Yes, they're good. Crispy and fried. $10 - ok Ordered a $14 "Smoked brisket sandwich" on a soft roll with pickled onions. Asked for onions on side. What arrived was a small hoagie - with some brisket and pickled onions on the sandwich. I called this out because it was both cold and had the onions on the sandwich. Bartender took it back had them remake it. This time it came back small, onions on the side, but with purple cabbage "slaw" and jalapeños. Menu didn't mention anything about slaw or jalapeños. Ordered "fried spicy Brussel sprouts." Those were steamed and seemed to be maybe quickly reheated in a pan to make them appear fried. They were sad and not fried. $12 - I think not. Bartender was the best thing about this place. If you got the munchies, do that elsewhere. Too bad, because the same grub at a bar in Portland or Seattle would be both delicious and less expensive. Why even serve food if you don't have to if it's going to be meh? Craft beer selection is decent. read more

Great drinks and filling food, but the real draw is weekday trivia, which is one I've most enjoyed in the city. We got super lucky our friends had arrived uber early and secured a whole table outside, because we would not have been able to be seated otherwise. The trivia master was excellent, and I found the references to be culturally varied and play to the strengths of our somewhat age-and-background diverse group (answers range from billy joel to the Chinese zodiac to simply "yeet"). There were several rounds, which is ideal if you want something to slowly chip away at your unfounded trivia self-confidence but give you a fun time nonetheless. Two very memorable ones were (1) the pattern round, where all the answers to the questions were related to each other in some way (we found one pattern correctly and the other incorrectly; it was a blast) and (2) the music round, the results of which you could not waterboard out of me. Needless to say, we were quickly gunning for the "most average" team (we did not win that title either, but maybe next time). Our trivia master was friendly and welcoming, and we got to chat with him at the end. He mentioned that his regulars get a sense of the hints and patterns in his questions which adds yet another layer to the game, but you didn't hear that because we're using all we can to come in first time time. read more

Neat place. Jam packed though. The drinks were awesome for a sports bar and BJ provided great service. The food eas mediocre bar food and came out cold. read more

I love going to The Boardroom for games, especially with lots of Oregon fans this bar is a great environment for drinks and sports. However, today the bouncer/security/ ID check point guy at the door was so outstandingly aggressive that my friends and I were so uncomfortable and had to leave. I'm a bartender myself and understand the importance of checking IDs and ensuring no fakes are getting in, but this guy (older gentlemen with a beard and cane) was on another level of paranoia about checking IDs. There were lots of big college games today and my friends and I got there before the bouncer came, so understandable he needed our IDs even tho we had already ordered drinks. But this behavior was unacceptable. First, my friend hands him her id and he accuses her of attempting to use her hand to cover her photo by saying "nice try with covering your photo"... she's 22 and may look young but none the less she is 22 and that was her real ID... whatever shrug it off. Next I go up and someone asks if they have to have their id, I joke and say "that must be your favorite question" he did not like that. My friend who lives around the corner met us and wasn't drinking and realized she didn't have her ID. She simply looks at her phone and the beard and cane man accuses her of attempting to show him a photoshopped ID photo? She was so weirded out by his aggressiveness she left. He then proceeds to aggressively tell us if anyone at our table doesn't have a stamp or is illegally drinking or sitting with us not of age we will be thrown out. Super fair, it's the law! I said we don't have anyone not of age drinking with us. He gets even more aggressive and angry and goes on a little more and that's when I said okay calm down (he was really really aggressive about a situation that hasn't even presented itself). I get in line at the bar to order a drink and after a moment he stands up, gets in my face and tells me to "not tell him to calm down nor how to do his job" I was stunned this man was so offended to get up in my face. I replied, "I'm not telling you how to do your job, but you are being very intense and could be kinder." He then says he will kick me and my friends out or he demands an apology. The nastiness in this man's voice demanding an apology for me simply saying calm down is crazy. I apologized in fear, but not for us getting kicked out, but that this man would cause a scene that he was obviously craving. I wish I didn't apologize. He then proceeds to check all the tables outside to ensure stamps and IDs, but specifically aggressively questioned and threatened our table, who has already legally spent a fair amount of money on drinks. That man should not be working in any setting with people, let alone be the first person a customer interacts with when arriving. I understand checking IDs, but his paranoia was on another level, he's surely waiting for the day to get a fake id and do god knows what. I don't know if it's a power-trip, insecurity, or mental health, but he needs to seriously learn about people before WORKING with people. I don't know what fake id undercover operation he thinks and fears people are running, but we are not apart of it and our LEGAL OF AGE IDS should've settled that. The man has some serious issues. I enjoy this place but if I ever saw that man at the door again I know me and my friends wouldn't even try to go in. This world is cruel enough, no need to be unreasonably cruel and aggressive when I'm just trying to get a drink and watch football! read more
