Great place to relax and have a drink absorbing the local culture.
Quite a breakthrough for the LGBTQ community.

- Allen G30 contributionsMy niece and I decided to go bar hopping and were following a list a friend gave her. This was the first stop and was not disappointed.

- JohnAlbuquerque, NM8 contributionsI love this place! No trip to SF would be valid without a long stop at the Lone Star Saloon. Great staff, "real men" and little attitude. I'm back at Thanksgiving 2021 bears, so please spare me a smile...Written October 11, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Writelines69 contributionsThanks to Jeremy and the weekend team for making us feel so welcome.
Really a local’s bar with a fabulous piano karaoke on a Sunday night. The bar is very welcoming and reasonably priced.

- IanThomas84Ilford, UK265 contributionsPlayed popular hits from 80s and 90s, and had that feel of a bar by day and party by night. Great fun!Written November 25, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- NelsonMadison, WI88 contributionsI stayed the night in Fisherman's Wharf. I was looking for an easy way to get to the Castro area. The Metro was just the ticket. I had the all week pass so it really cost me nothing. Easy to use, reasonable and come and go as you please. This really worked out well and I'd really recommend this to get to Castro. Good Luck!Written December 1, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jon HSan Francisco, CA382 contributionsI just enjoyed a visit to The Stud, which has been a beating heart of San Francisco since 1966, immortalized by Armisted Maupin ten years later, when Michael Tolliver brought Brian here. The model train no longer runs above the bar. But the coat check is still friendly and helpful.Written January 30, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Thomas TSan Francisco, CA360 contributionsThe Pilsner is a tried and true casual gay bar that offers friendly service. It’s a spacious bar with window seating in the front and a pool table in the back. The patio is always a great spot for warm afternoons.Written October 1, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
