Charming little space to drink and chat, passionately kept alive by regular-cum-owner Ron, and the devoted team around him. I first visited Hôtel Biron in pre-history (read: around 2003), and have had the privilege of returning to the bar after some twenty years in exile from...Read More

If you’re looking for a cozy home away from home experience, this is your place. The staff and new owner are so kind and welcoming. I see regulars there that come time and time again. This place holds a real sense of community and inclusion....Read More

Lovely little wine bar on a hidden alley in Hayes Valley. Friendly staff and great wines! Perfect for a first date or a quick glass of wine before heading out to one of the many wonderful restaurants in the neighborhood. A true local treasure!

Thrilled that my beloved local, one of the best wine bars in SF, is open for business! Same comfy environment, excellent wine list (plus beer, vermouth, and sake), and friendly, knowledgeable service. Visited last night and it was delightful.

This is my favorite wine bar in San Francisco. The eclectic and well curated wine list is best paired with their amazing cheeses (I recommend the triple cream and the hard aged Swiss). The dreamy bartender Chris makes it a moSt excellent experience.

This is top 5 places to go in SF. Off the beaten path, always space for a small group. Really love it. Great for date night too. Pro tip: if you tell the bartender what you like, they will let you try a couple of...Read More

Hole in the wall wine bar in San Francisco. Although the name says Hotel, it is not a hotel. Great wine selection (a little pricey), limited seating, casual atmosphere with friendly, knowledgeable staff. If they have a bottle of the wine you are picking up,...Read More

You'd never find the best wine bar in SF on your own, unless you have a penchant for wandering down dark alleys. Even then, you might miss the place. Pop in for a bottle or two and grab a cheese plate to enjoy with it....Read More

Cozy, romantic, chic. But this place is for industry people. Only they could truly appreciate the thought and originality put into their wine list. I only wish it were a tad larger with a bit more variation. Get the Vin Jaune. Nutty, bright, fun.

Like a Parisienne hole in the wall... a true delight! There is a certain point, around 300 reviews for a restaurant, that maybe you don't need any more reviews. Where it simply doesn't matter because the people have spoken..... and they have an opinion, and...Read More

I don't really want to give this place five stars, because I adore having it as a semi-secret place, but they DESERVE IT! I've been here about a dozen times and each time I am always impressed with their knowledge, selection, and the atmosphere. Get...Read More

The best places are always a little off the beaten path. Biron has a great rotating selection of new and old world wines, eclectic beers, charcuterie, and fresh acme french bread. Always good vibes as well.
