San Francisco may not be the city that never sleeps, but it boasts an array of nightlife to keep locals and visitors entertained for hours on end. Teatro ZinZanni whets the appetites of diners and performing arts lovers alike. For classic cocktails served with a side of glittering city views, head to the Top of the Mark on Union Square. A rich rock-n-roll past meets a hip, mutli-genre present at the Fillmore, San Francisco’s most famous music venue. Catch an indie band at Great American Music Hall, or a set at Yoshi’s, a legendary jazz bar meets sushi restaurant (you can order sake and rolls while enjoying the show—how cool is that?). Mezzanine and DNA Lounge are two of the city’s finest (read: un-cheesiest) nightclubs and feature national and local acts. 111 Minna Street Gallery seamlessly blends local artists, DJ’s, and killer cocktails. Laid-back vibes on the bay, bar food with a maritime feel, and free music on weekends makes for fun times at Pier 23 Café.
