Gold Cane Cocktail Lounge

The review posted about 20 minutes ago by Victoria S. Is completely false. I am a patron of this bar, and witnessed the interaction she is referring to. Usually, when walking into an establishment one has never been to, the normal course of action would be to greet the person who is running said establishment, particularly in a bar setting. We have very strict laws in San Francisco regarding liquor and its service. Unfortunately, sometimes visitors to our city are not aware of this and perceive our local laws and regulations being enforced as rude. I personally find it comforting that an establishment is following the rules and serving our community safely. When I have travelled to Europe, I noticed it is common to greet shopkeepers and workers when you enter their establishment. Strange that this seems foreign to Victoria. Maybe she's just rude. The Gold Cane Cocktail lounge is one of the best neighborhood bars in San Francisco, friendly service, very affordable drinks, and good vibes all around. If you think that the vibe was off - which we all heard you say when you walked out, Victoria... it seems like your vibe is the off one. Have a great stay in San Francisco!!!!!

stumbled upon this gem drinks were well made and and even made me my favorite drink perfectly!!!Thank you Dustin ! I loved my grasshopper

Love this spot and the people that make it. A couple of the bartenders leave something to be desired in that their attitude is drab and grumpy; like they hate their own life and so you are constantly made to feel like an inconvenience. Also, don't put ice cubes in cider: https://brightsidebrewing.co.uk/should-you-drink-cider-over-ice/#

Fun place to have a drink and hang out out the Haight good people tooBartenders and patron are fantastic too

I came here last night and had a great time. I love the ambiance and the music had me vibing all night long. Great drinks at a good price, I would definitely come back again.

Absolutely horrible service from the moment you walk in your freedom is taken. This place is not for those who are proud to be American's. The advertisement suggested that those inside would be welcoming to the brotherhood of america. I am in absolute disgust and disbelief with the service and quality of the establishment. As someone who has served in the army for a decade I was completely ignored and refused of service considering my place in this nation. I found that the accepting pride store across the street respected me and my presence much more than that of the Gold Cane Cocktail Lounge. Brothers, you must do better for our community. Last but not least the regulars I have met are truly disrespectful and the bathrooms were atrocious. Do not recommend.

I have been going to this beautiful joint for well over 20 years and always feel at home here beautiful people community nice staff and just a great overall vibe. Please support this family on business and the beautiful people that run it and support it. Support the positive things in the heat and Cole valley not the negative crap that continues to walk the streets including hardware businesses, hateful people and just negativity. Let's stay positive and only support the positive and flush the negative nails bolts and crap down the toilet.

This is my favorite bar in the Haight. They've been around forever. Certainly don't need my review.

Walked in with my husband to grab a drink and walked to the back to the courtyard with our dog. We wanted to avoid having our dog inside. There was a full bar. We didn't even think to say we were going to the courtyard. We were screamed at for IDs. We turned around handed our IDs (33M and 31F). Wife took back her ID. Bartender made a comment "no need to snatch it. That's my job". We felt uncomfortable and decided to leave. Bartender yelled "good bye thanks for coming" in a very sarcastic tone. Terrible service. Terrible way to approach a customer. Regardless if you're having a homeless bathroom problem.

Quedé de verme con amigos en este bar. El cantinero solicitó ID el cual mostré, pero además solicito mi pasaporte, que por obvias razones, al no tratarse de aeropuerto o personal de migración, no cargo. No aceptan copias o fotos del mismo. Salí del bar, espere a mi amigo que tardó, asomé mi cara para apresurar a mi amigo. El cantinero (alto y negro) salio a la puerta cuando me vio y se quedo allí hasta que mi amigo y yo llegamos a la calle que debimos tomar (por supuesto que vi hacia atrás para darme cuenta de esta acción). Me hizo pensar que esto se trato de un caso de discriminación por el trato y ver otras chicas en el bar, incluso que aparentaban menos edad que yo.Solo quede de ver a amigos pero con esta corta y breve experiencia ya no regresaría ni lo recomendaría a personas extranjeras.Cane señalar que en otros bares no han tenido ningún problema si sólo presento mi ID de mi país /I agreed to meet friends at this bar. The bartender asked me for identification which I showed him, but he also asked me for my passport, which for obvious reasons, not being airport or immigration personnel, I did not have. They do not accept copies or photographs of it. I left the bar, waited for my friend who was late, and showed my face to hurry my friend along. The waiter (tall and black) approached the door when he saw me and stayed there until my friend and I reached the street we should have taken (of course, I looked back to notice this action). He made me think that it was a case of discrimination due to treatment and seeing other girls in the bar, even who looked younger than me.I only had to see friends but with this short and brief experience I would not return nor recommend it to foreign people.I can point out that other bars have not had any problems if I only present my ID from my country.
