Wilson & Wilson

Such a Fun and Unique Experience!My friends and I stumbled upon Wilson & Wilson recently, and we had the best time! The place is so cozy and intimate, with just the right lighting and the cutest little oil lamps on each table, it really sets the mood perfectly.Ross, the mixologist, was amazing! You could tell he loves what he does, and his cocktails were absolutely fantastic. He was super friendly and made the whole experience so enjoyable for us.We'll definitely be back!

Amazing cocktails. The evolution of flavor after a sip was incredibly long on a couple of them. Also great service from our bartender. We were concerned that the speakeasy theme might be a bit overwhelming, but once you're inside it's just a nice, chill experience. I also appreciated the no cell phones rule -- it discourages people from taking pictures nonstop, but it's not rigidly enforced.

FYI - There are 3 "bars" within this bar. At Wilson & Wilson, all the stools in this area of the bar have no backs on them and are deeply uncomfortable. You seriously cannot move these things to be comfortable in any way. The Library stools also do not have any backs (the Library is mostly standing room only), but the stools themselves are normal and quite comfortable. This is the best of the 3 bars. Bourbon & Branch is the only bar with booths. The booths are very comfortable but the service is atrocious. There was something slimy that had fallen on the top of my drink when it was delivered. It took over 30 minutes before I was able to get a new drink. Not because they were busy (they were quite dead), but because the server just never came back. They still charged me for the drink too.

Slam dunk of a place. A speakeasy inside a speakeasy. Reservations area a must. W&W is a small place (about 20 seats) and is really only good for parties up to four. Drinks are out of this world amazing and the service was top shelf. This is a must see place whenever you are in the city. There are three bars inside this co okey but Wilson is the best in my opinion. Less people, great music, and you really do feel transported to a different time and place.

Our favorite speakeasy, the Wilson and Wilson is the pace we always go to get an after dinner or show drink before we turn in. The speakeasy has a cool theme and a great "mystery" to solve at the beginning of the menu-it really takes you back with a feeling of: this is what it might have been like! The bartenders have the look of the time, it's dimly lit with lights at each of the tables, and occasionally has special events to attend! Make sure you make a reservation and have the password before you enter!!!!

This place is amazing. A great secret bar within a secret bar. Specialty drinks and stellar service. I've been coming here for years. I love the ambience and hidden aspect of it. A great place to get drinks before as show or dinner.

Thank you so much, W&W. I was a whiny baby because our flight that were supposed to get us into SF by 3:30 pm was canceled, we took a diverted flight to Oakland, crossed the bridge, and our 9:30 res was in doubt yet they took us in at the tail end of the night regardless. THANK YOU.Now, on to the star of the show: these fantastic libations. From seating to service, W&W is a speakeasy within a speakeasy oozing Bogart style, taking us back to the era when Sam Spade sought the Golden Falcon.In a three-course fashion, we enjoyed front to back. Each cocktail -- whether mezcal or gin -- pushed a distinct flavor profile from smoky to airy to citrusy. It truly was a rolling tasting that provided elegance with every sipThis was my top spot on this trip and I'm so truly thankful they took us in after an awful travel experience, which was forgotten the second we were welcomed through the door with our special secret password. Thank you, W&W. We will be back again some day!

Service here honestly sold the experience for me-- the drinks were great and the one I ordered was right as rain--it was appropriately fruity and smooth. The speakeasy was on theme and made me feel like I was sitting in a bar in England. We were one of two tables at our reservation time and it was so nice and intimate to get to chat with each other and the bartender. He made us an extra drink for my sisters bday, and was friendly and lovely to talk to altogether. As we entered another table was leaving and the chit chat between the customers and bartender was also very wholesome--great ambiance here. It was different than any other speakeasy I've been to, and I enjoyed all the secret rooms. Definitely recommend the experience! One thing to note was that we had a reservation but I think there was some sort of hold up inside of bourbon and branch as when we arrived there were already three parties waiting in line outside of the door--kind of defeating the secretive speakeasy mood. Although they kept ringing the doorbell no one came for maybe 20 minutes and since there were 3 parties ahead of us, and the hostess went inside each time after getting the name on the reservation to figure out where to seat them, we didn't actually get seated until 30 min after we got in line. A little bit of an inconvenience but was smoothened out by the nice experience after we were seated.

We've been to Wilson & Wilson numerous times and we always have a blast. Reservations are decently easy to get (same-day is often available for small parties) and it's a fun, intimate speakeasy experience. The menu is in a detective's case file, and you can read through the report and sift through the evidence as you enjoy your drinks. Their cocktails are thoughtfully crafted, presented well, and tasty. Prices have gone up recently but nothing egregious. The only downside to Wilson & Wilson is the seating. The entire space only has bar seating, a few high tops for parties of 2, and one larger table (for around 4 people) in the back. All the seats are stools (and not particularly comfy), and the space is decently narrow/tight. Definitely not the best place for a large group but great for an intimate, candlelight night out.

Very cool speakeasy. Great cocktails and service. The apertifs are amazing. Definitely worth checking out
