I think this place deserves a little credit. The venue is gorgeous, open bar until 11pm (come on!), and packed with guys. On the other hand I can understand being upset at the experiences described in the other reviews. Not everyone I saw there was a pretty-boy, though the crowd definitely skewed towards the lookers. The people I met were all friendly--I'd go back in a heart beat were I not 3,000 miles away!

Wild Side is a totally casual, welcoming neighborhood bar. I've had only pleasant interactions with both bartenders and other patrons here. Everyone is there to relax, play a game of pool, or sip on a drink in the gorrrrgeous back patio (it is not to be missed!). Yes, it's mostly ladies and curves to the older side of the spectrum, but you can't help but find interesting conversation here.

This is one of the best hangouts in the city. The back patio is perfect for a sunny afternoon, and for some reason I can't stay away from the shuffleboard after a few drinks. Usually a mixed crowd, so don't be shocked to see straights.

This beach leaves much to be desired. If you drive a bit north into Malibu you'll find much nicer spots, but no gay ones that I know of. Will Rogers at least has that. If you're looking for guys in speedos, this is the spot. For actual surf and good swimming, head elsewhere.

I used to go here on Thursdays before hitting up Tigerheat (when it used to be down the street). Each hour on Thurs. night they do a five minute "open bar" where drinks are free. It's an awesome way to get a night started on the cheap, especially if you order a vodka vodka with a splash of vodka.

I've been here on Friday nights, and they really pack in the crowd. It gets to the point where you're squeezing past people just to get to the bathroom, but the guys are generally good looking, so maybe you won't mind too much? Not the end-all be-all of clubs, but a good one.

I was here on Friday night not expecting much, but wound up really impressed. This isn't the typical Castro bar - no thumpa-thumpa bass, no go-go boys. Instead you'll find a cool and different atmosphere (subdued and stylish) and great drinks. The crowd was mixed--some older, mostly younger--and good looking!

This is one of my favorite spots in SF. Yesterday the SF Orchestra had a huge stage set up, and they played a free concert. It was magical to bask in the sun while listening to a live professional orchestra. Regardless of the music though, the gay area is always a blast when its nice out.

I used to go to Bronx for a slice (or two or three) every few weeks when I lived in SD. It's a total NY vibe there - no frills - just good, quality pies.

I went to Vivace on a recent trip to Seattle after hearing about it from some real coffee addicts. Their advice payed off - this is some of the best coffee (outside of SF of course :] ) I've ever had. And super cute guys there!
