Our Story
Tucked at the corner of 17th and Guerrero in San Francisco's Mission District, The 500 Club has been a neighborhood anchor since 1947. Step inside and you'll find a long wraparound bar, booths that fit a party of four, and the glow of an iconic martini neon sign that has welcomed locals through every era of this ever-changing city.
The vibe is unpretentious and consistent — a place where dive bar regulars, Mission creatives, and curious visitors all find their footing. PBR on draft sits next to a full cocktail list. The jukebox sets the soundtrack. The photo booth keeps the memories. This is old-school San Francisco at its finest.

"A classic old school spot, the kind that is sadly becoming harder to find in San Francisco. Drinks are poured to the very tippy-top, so no complaints there."
