Bar 821 Bar 821 opened in 2002 reborn 2024. 821 is a seated bar only, first come first serve.

Bar 821 boast one of San Francisco’s largest selections of Amari, those deliciously bittersweet, herbal liqueurs largely known for their digestive properties. Given that Amari is traditionally and best enjoyed on their own or with a rock or two, the bar features an entire menu devoted to all things bitter alongside an Amaro themed cocktail list. Bar 821 selection of spirits from Mezcal to Gin to whisky is one of the best, also being the oldest watering hole amongst the increasingly popular Divisadero stretch. Happy Hour is daily from 4-7 pm offering bartenders choice of a spirits, shot, and beer. Bar 821 is an ideal spot to host private events for groups of 20 to 50 people, just shoot us an email so we can assist with the details. Whether one is looking for a pre-dinner aperitif, a post-dinner Amaro, or just a friendly place to sip a beer, guests should expect a warm atmosphere with a refreshingly intriguing spirits offering.
