Nick & Nora

Vibes are hella chill. I really like the interior - the dark leather - dark wood vibes are cool. Service is on point and can't really complain about anything else. There's 2 bathrooms only for logistic awareness.I like getting hammered here and then going next door to the Mexican spot and ordering food. You can bring food in the bar too - which is chill.Drinks can get kind of expensive but I think its because I have expensive taste. It can sneak up on you quickly.

There aren't too many bars that serve unique cocktails in the Peninsula, but my friends and I were lucky to visit Nick & Nora, which is conveniently close to us for nights we don't want to travel too far in to San Francisco. The vibes are very chill, with a couple of booths for groups and seats at the bar. It's a bit dark inside, so it will take awhile for your eyes to adjust to the dim lighting. Some nights there will be DJ's playing, and sometimes it can be quite loud where it's hard to have a conversation with people. The bartenders are welcoming and friendly to every customer. I ordered the Silk Road, and it automatically became my favorite drink to order there every time I visit. It's not spirit forward and it's satisfying to drink. I have tried Pink Skies which is a close second depending on what I'm feeling. I do hope they can do a little rotational menu of their cocktails eventually so I can try something new, and also some little appetizers to accommodate the drinks

Nick & Nora is a relatively new cocktail bar in Daly City near the top of the hill. I visited for their happy hour (daily 5pm-6pm) which included $3 off everything. I originally thought it started at 4pm but the bartender corrected me, so the website is incorrect. There is a long bar counter as well as small and big tables throughout the entirety of the interior.ASTA'S ANOMALY ($14) - this was really easy to drink and is the perfect spring or summer sipper.NAKED AND FAMOUS ($14) - this is one of the classic equal-parts cocktails similar to the last word. It was smokey from the mezcal and slightly bitter from the aperol. It usually doesn't have orange bitters but I thought it worked well in the drink.PALOMA CALIENTE ($14) - this was your typical paloma with a spicy twist from the firewater bitters. If you like spicy drinks you'll like this drink.NICK'S NIGHTCAP ($16) - this drink had big smokey flavors from the laphroaig. This is a great drink if you're a fan of peaty scotch flavors.NEGRONI ($15) - I watched them make this drink and it looked like it was pre-made in a bottle and then stirred for dilution. It was a solid negroni but I think the volume was a little less than I would've liked.ESPRESSO MARTINI ($14) - this was your typical espresso martini and was good too.I liked this place so much that I came here with a group of six the day after and I had a good time again. Shoutout to my bartender Michelle who made sure I was taken care of both times that I visited. The drinks were great for a good price and this place is a nice addition to the area.

Poor service. The bartender did not want to be there. Had to chase her down for a menu. Ordered an espresso martini only for my drink to have coffee grounds in it. Safe to say I won't be coming back.

Cool vibe and friendly bartenders. Great music on NYE! I just wish more people danced.

While browsing new bars to visit on a weekday through Yelp, I stumbled upon Nick and Nora, and I'm thrilled that we decided to give it a try. We indulged in an espresso martini, dirty martini, pink skies, and the Silk Road.Each a delightful handcrafted cocktail presented in a pretty cup with pretty garnishes. The drinks were expertly mixed, providing a satisfying experience. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who was incredibly welcoming. Guiding me through drink selections based on my preferences. The ambiance has dim lighting. There's seating at the bar, in booths, and at tables. I'm eager to return on a DJ night to soak in a lively night. I'm happy that Nick and Nora have made their mark here.

I am officially sold. This place used to be a dive, but they've invested a good amount in here to make it friendly, cozy, and modern. The walls have been redone, the lighting is new, and the fixtures are all new. There's a super long bar area and plenty of booths and counters as well. Service is great, and their happy hour is $3 off everything. Honestly, it's kind of a steal, and you get to bring in food from neighboring restaurants. We were here on a Friday night and it wasn't super packed. You could still talk to your friends and watch whatever was playing through their regular broadcast networks. Will be back!

Cute little bar with 1 large booth and 2 smaller booths for groups. The drinks are all fairly standard. During the holidays they have an xmas tree up.There are parking spts on the streets to either side street of the bar, but they can fill up pretty quickly.Here's where I'm slashing stars:It wasn't all that busy of a night and they brouh in a DJ to blast music to the point where I couldn't hear the person next to me. The music only got louder and louder. Pretty sure the other large group left cuz they couldn't hear each other and our group promptly left before midnight for the same reason. The DJ had good music selection, but there's no dance floor here so there's no reason to be blaring the music that loud that you have to scream at the top of your lungs to talk to the person literally next to you.Probably wouldn't come back here because of this.

I frequent this place quite often. I always feel welcomed and feel that both bartenders go above and beyond. I would highly recommend.

Poor service. The bartender did not want to be there. I had to call her multiple times for a drink. She was more worried about filtering with some guys than serving the bar. In the end, I wasn't sure what she charged for.
