2nd star for managing to stay open during covid. Cashier/server was super rude and more interested in chatting with the bartender than cleaning tables. Take the “L-I-E-S” out of their names and head around the corner for a better experience.

Really cool bar to have the American experience like a local. We came with a group of friends and a blues band was playing, they were amazing!The vibe was awesome, people were dancing or just talking, you could feel like if you were surrounded by friends. The drinks and beer price was okey and the bartenders were nice, we had the best of time. I’d definitely come back if I have the chance.

The food was so great. The servers were all very nice and accommodating our large group as well. Ill definitely come back to try other dishes I didnt have this time.

Really nice bar with a great selection of drinks. You even get a whole big glass filled with ice and your favorite drink to top yours up after a while. I definitely recommend this place for a few nice drinks and a great night out. Its cash only at the bar but there is an ATM at the back end of the bar so you dont have to worry.

I had one of the best times of my life in Blondies’ bar, seriously!There was an awesome blues band playing with a phenomenal atmosphere.Don’t know their name, but they were incredible.Good offer of drinks and definitely payable.Would come back next time to Blondies’ bar!

Cash only cocktail bar, with a specialty in martinis. The cocktails and martinis are big! They come with a sidecar, so only a couple orders can last you a long while. They have a stage/dance area and later in the night they play music and becomes more club-like. The vibe is great and a lot of fun.

Really cool dance bar in the mission! Gets extremely crowded on Friday nights but the vibe and the music is totally worth it!It does get too packed and sometimes barely enough space to move or even space to sit down, which can be uncomfortable.They have a cover charge.

I had the Polish martini and it was super delicious. It also came with a little something extra martini in is Shaker. Something that did the trick, of you know what I mean.

A good large menu and definitely a lot of people but even as far as SF bars go it’s totally packed on Friday/SaturdayThe floor is soaked and it’s really hot in there plus there is literally CONSTANT traffic because the bar is **cash only** so there are people going back and forth from the bar to the ATM at all times. The drinks weren’t too bad and there’s some sitting areas but for the most part you’re backed into a corner with people walking aroundMusic was fine. It’s a cool vibe inside so worth a look but definitely wouldn’t make this your whole night

Very fun bar , has a neon nightclub feel/look, drinks were good and price was great at 12$ for a martini and you get to keep the extra. Parking is tight.

Great bar. Good liquor selection. I Hate cash only places, but at least they have an ATM on site.

Bartender was forceful on asking for tips. The crowd is fun and drinks are cheap for the area

The place was poppin. Bring cash. $5 cover and $16 for two drinks. Fight broke out when I was there and shut down the dance floor. Enjoy your time and dont argue with bouncers or they will throw you out.

This place supports/encourages a predatory app (see screenshots).The other week while I was waiting in line with a friend, a bounced walked up and told us we could skip the line if we used this app to pay cover.Thinking it was a decent deal, I paid $14 for 2 line skip tickets. But as you can see from the pictures below, their flow is set up so that In order to actually skip the line, you are opted into a service that has a subscription fee of $120 per month!The fact that this bar was allowing bouncers or promoters to actively prey on customers & tell them lies is at best predatory and at worst illegal.I live in the neighborhood but will never trust this establishment again & will tell all of my friends not to support this place either.

Vibes pretty hard on the weekends. Dead on the weekdays. Actually has a stage where a few people dance, but mainly standing.

All the people should try the Octopus and and the 3 ceviches plate... delicious!

STRONG drinks are the highlight of this Mission dive. Stopped in for a salsa night and the live music really brought a nice energy to the bar.

I hey it 1 star for the reason that I ask for water theres no bottle water. I wanted to able to sober up. But theres no water they cnt even provide water.

Has Blondie’s returned to its pre-gentrification vibe? It seemed so a couple of weeks ago. I was beyond happy to see so many folks of color in the room and no one spilled a drink on me. DJ played 90s music and my “Too tired to code switch” t-shirt received much love!

Always have a good time on Friday and Saturday nights. Good Drinks, Music and vibe.

One of the most happening bars Ive been to. Great martinis. The lines are long but the vibes are worth it.

Seriously the worst tasting cocktails Ive ever had!!!Nice bar in a Cool part of San Francisco but do not buy a cocktail from here.

Typical San Franciscian bar, on the edge of being a dive bar as I suppose. But they have a great secret.Order the Martini and youll get a full glass on the side of vodka and ice. Its insane!Prices arent too bad and I think they have live music since they have a stage area in the back. We didnt see anyone playing but instead people just sat awkwardly on the stage which is basically the floor.Cool lighting and some sort of secret bar in the back!

Always a fun place for a good time!! Love the drinks

Cute place. Pretty good deal on mixed drinks.

HUGE martinis with a super fun selection of options for the purists and th adventurers!

Love love love this bar. I went during happy hour and got martinis for a great price. There are so many options and I was so overwhelmed but I told the bartender what type of spirits I like/ my fave drinks and he made me a delicious martini. The best part about this place is you get the entire shaker full - not just your glass. Great music in the background as well!

Had a really good night there on a Thursday night. The band was really good and played some country music and some rocknroll. Overall there was a really good ambiance.

Heard they discriminate against customers , they should clear this up publicly

First time here. Place a small and boring. The bartenders did make good drinks however ... but considering it was the day if pride I really expected better.

Small bar. Clean with lounge style seats. Comedy shows. Cash only bar with ATM inside

Great place with great music, but very little air circulation! We were here on a crowded night and had to leave because it was too hot to dance.

A little pricy but good music and nice people in there! The drinks are good!

On Sundays theres live music. I was visiting SF and just stumbled upon this place. There are beer and cocktail options with relatively affordable prices ( considering you are in San Francisco). Bathroom was clean and the service was fast.

Fun dive bar. Good live music and room for dancing. Booths are great for intimacy too. Prices are kinda all over. Some cocktails are average priced with some a bit more. Havent tried the happy hour. They allow you to bring in food. Gets pretty packed though which kills the dive atmosphere a bit.

Dirty drinks glasses. Horrible comedy nights

The lemon twist martini.. excellent

Solo bartender was kind and efficient, drinks were great

Great live music...At least there was on Friday. :)

This bar gets busy after 9pm on a Friday evening, so be sure to be here early to get a seat, or a space. Lively place with plenty of interaction.

Popular place. James Dixon had the place packed.

Drinks are pretty strong and I really liked how creative bartenders over there are :)

A very good alive place to go to

Pretty cool martini bar, both gin and vodka. They give you the martini glass and the extra in a separate glass. Its a pretty long bar with a couple of booths. Theres also a stage and dance floor at the back.

The Blondies gin martini is delicious!

Coolest blues bar of downtown SFO

Occasionally has live music. Generally a great DJ set. Crowded on the weekends; expect a line. The cocktails are generous pours so order wisely.

Excellent strong drinks, good crew, cash only.

Strong martinis (maybe too strong?) and beautiful people.. But the generic music choice was quite disappointing.

Blondies definitely did not live up to the hype. Music was subpar, the bouncers were extremely rude, and it is a cash only bar. It is so extremely hot in there and no fans or AC whatsoever. It is definitely a place to start the night, but not end.

Cash only! Live music. Good place to hang out

Great bar great atmosphere , gin and vodka martinis are the one , and happy hour is certainly that

Normally i would have posted a pic but food looked so good i couldnt stop. the service was very helpful and welcoming. the bill was average for the menu.

Surprisingly nice cocktail variety.

Strong and large cocktails with a great DJ

Amazing martinis and a great location.

Great bar with live music, we need more places like that!!!

Sunday night, there was a live band and they asked and sang for my friend whos birthday we were celebrating. Cash only. Great cocktail selection

Good place to meet good drinks and place has good vibs

Judge mental people work there. No open to all.

Delicious libations and excellent bartenders

Delicious cocktails for a great price. This place is cash only though.

Thursday music and salsa and swing is the BEST

Happy hour we went here on a recommendation by a local. Happy hour they fill/free pour pint glasses of spirits to make a cocktail and leave you with the glass to keep topping yourself up.

If you like pints of Martinis this is the spot! Drinks decently cheap for the size but gets packed on the weekends.

Sometimes you just want to hang out and get a beer. Or maybe another kind of drink, if thats more your thing. Talk to a friend, you know? Chill out. Blondies Bar and No Grill is a place to do that. They sell drinks. They dont sell food. Its cash only. I guess there are live shows sometimes because they have a stage, but Ive never seen one. But you can sit on the stage, and talk to your friend or maybe even 2-3 friends, and have a good time and have some drinks and you will enjoy yourself, I mean, if you are otherwise going to enjoy yourself. I cant fix all your problems for you, man, and neither can this bar. Dont forget: cash only.

Nice bar, the live music was also so fun.

I play run 3 games on SSF2 Tokugames at level 21 songs I love that song

Love the vibe, love the drinks! Cash only.

Dark place with music and foreign accents. Decent drinks and has its own neighborhood vibe. Open late all week to get that last drink in, that works well too.

Watch out they give you a martini and then a pint glass full of the rest of the liquor... Sometimes dreams come true!

Great live music. Live music started around 9pm. Tuesday nights have an awesome funk/jazz feel to em. Highly recommended to check it out. Also their vodka martinis are enormous! Great location.

Great place live music its amazing its awesome

Excellent bartender, but she quit after that day.

Nice bar, but the doorman feels you up in a strange way.

Was visiting from out of town and was recommended this place by a few people. Take only cash and drinks are bit on the expensive side. Good music and vibes, although space is crammed

Good place for dancing on the weekends. However it gets a tad too busy sometimes. Careful not to fall off the stage!

It’s really unfortunate that this business chooses to be cash only, I feel like they do not want my business.

I like this place to go dancing. Its small and tends to get crowded, so be prepared to sweat a lot inside. There are two bars, and if you just want a beer, Id suggest going to the smaller bar inside.Cash only, but they have an ATM on site. Their martinis are very good, and each drink is almost enough for two people / two normal drinks.Pretty good music to dance to. They play hip hop, and a few Latin numbers. The crowd is mostly fun too.

Great deal on drinks.

Manny one of the bartenders is very nice. Atmosphere is cool and calm. Good drinks.

Great value cocktails! They have a variety of interesting drinks here. The dance floor sometimes gets crowded and fun. Great spot in the Mission for going out.

Great drink selection and crowd is super friendly. Definitely try to arrive early on weekends as it gets crowded and long lines happen the later to try to arrive.

Best staff ever. I love this place and will always go back for the great drink prices and friendly staff

Out door seating and martinis

A true SF gem where your drink always comes with a proper sidecar. Come on a Friday and Saturday night for amazing music and dancing.

Good place for various martinis and cocktails. They arent cheap but you get your moneys worth. The small patio makes a great place to people watch while your drink. The live music during the week is a nice touch.

Arrive before 10 pm to avoid long line up and cover charge.Awesome place for happy hour drinks. Really fun on Friday and Saturday music playing and dancing.

Good drinks, good atmosphere

Awesome spot. Just two things. First, the music is way too loud and Im feeling like it was out of touch with the crowd, but it was my second time there and the first Friday Ive ever been there, maybe its like that all the time. Second, I know yall can do whatever yall want, but why serve Moscow Mules in a glass?

Great drinks, large Martinis (their specialty) and a lively atmosphere with good music on weekend nights!

Kind of strange vibe. We were there around 7pm on a Saturday. There were a few folks at the bar, but the bartender ignored us for several minutes while rinsing glasses, etc. I guess they have ongoing happy hour or something---the gin martini comes with a full glass of extra pour for $15 or so. It was actually way more than we wanted and we would not have ordered had we known!

The highlight of the nightlife of my vacation. The music was great. It does get packed, but that’s always what I’m looking for.

Martinis, and that is it. This is a great place for the martinis, they only pour it into your glass they also give you the rest that would not fit into your martini glass. Which is great and you get your moneys worth. Some nights you get live music which is great to dance to or just listen to if you dont want to dance. Great place to go for the martinis.

Friendly staff and chill atmosphere, this site shines both on nights with and without live music. Happy hour till 830!

Enormous martinis and great atmosphere.

Great bar! Very friendly bar tenders. Beware of the blue demon. Looking forward to visiting when theres live music.

Classic SF bar, doing what it does.

This is a good spot with good music spun. They usually play top 40 music and serve normal drinks - not craft drinks. It does get packed in here but if youre looking for a place to dance and meet new people, this is your spot.

Music was good drinks a little pricey . Cool vibe
