I seldomly go to nightclubs with my friends, but this one made me feel comfortable and safe. They also have affordable drinks and food to offer.

Went here on Friday night after dinner down the street. I had google messaged Pa-yam earlier in the week about getting our large party in. We were running late but true to his word he got all of us in. Once we were in the music was good and the drinks were reasonably priced. Overall we had a great time at F8 Nightclub & Bar. There was a lot of energy and lots of people. I would recommend visiting this place if you want to do some clubbing.

An absolutely beautiful space. The new owners have achieved a stunning remodel--I cant wait to come back with 25 friends and rule one of the sprawling booths!Welcome to the neighborhood!

I went here with a large group to celebrate my friends birthday and I have no regrets. This is by far the nicest club Ive ever been to. 20 dollar cover to get in. It definitely has that Hollywood vibe to it. The bartenders were very friendly and attentive. I highly recommend checking this place out if you are ever in CA.

A decent sized night club. The second dance floor was not so happening and very small.

Chicago club kid here. Don’t waste your time with this one. Especially steer clear if you’re a DJ or VJ. Had no problem with the promotors, the venue mgmt is another story. These guys are cheap, incompetent, disrespectful, and worst of all they think they’re the best in the industry or something. Will be making fun of this place from now on.

Awesome place, awesome vibes, an intimate setting to dance and get away from the daily grind for a bit, would come back again whenever I’m in the area. 15 dollars was the cover charge on the Saturday night that we went.

I only go here on Sunday’s for Stamina, so I cannot comment on the other 6 days out of the week, but Stamina is a solid Drum and Bass weekly and can always count on having a blast. BOH!

I swore I wouldnt work in a venue when I moved here because I didnt want to loose the magic and love I have for sfs music scene... f8 has always been a favorite, so when they asked me if to lend a hand, of course I made the exception. Glad I did because I get to work with some of the most amazing insightful musicians and booking agents in the game, and I feel like I can make a real difference in making the dance community safe and accessible, the way it should b for everyone. I feel very blessed to devote myself to this place. Forever a proud patron first, from icon to f8, this place is my cozy little home of low light and big big sound.

I LOVE DJing the Happy Hour Friday’s here and have ended up staying to dance my buns off with quality EDM music/parties afterwards!Toph1 is the host Friday’s and has a way about himself to curate sweet art for the walls along wit’ the DJ line-up being always a spicy and flavorful mix of Triple OG heads that he’s been graced to be networking with over the years. Guaranteed to Rock Tha Party in zainy and fabulous ways…roll through for a Red Wine sponsored happy…Dimetria will pour you a good one…as bikes are welcome to park inside for safety and eco-friendly times!Staff is a fabulous key to the experience here; friendly, fast and kind with DOPE videos to go along with the doobie down grooves!!!

Spent two consecutive nights partying at this venue and I would definitely come back again the next SF trip. This place is ran like a dive bar, with a side catering to DJ shows. Not to mention they have very reasonable prices for drinks! If you sneak up to the back side of the venue, they even have a private artist lounge area thats open on certain occasions. Great place when supporting a friend thats DJin or just a group of friends that are looking for a club night without the actual club experience.

Small venue, but very friendly and competent staff. Service was quick and efficient. There was no cover charge at the door and so I danced all night for the low low cost of free!

Wasnt sure what to expect at first. A decent entree fee of $30, two rooms to choose from, fascinating models and great djs...had an inspiring and psychedelic experience. Cant wait to come again. Went on Halloween and it wasnt too crowded and you could really let loose and be yourself.

One of my favorite clubs in the city. Stamina Sundays always has free drum & bass shows, and they bring in great artists! The bartenders here are amazing and the people that come to the shows are always fun and friendly. See you on the dancefloor!

This is a great bar/venue. They always have the latest shows and art. They have good drink specials to get your buzzon. They also hold bi-monthly events like Resonate and other good shows. Its always cool to just stop by and get a drink as well. Its a possible hang out type spot.

I was there on an off-weekend on Valentines Day. I know that usually Valentines Day is supposed to be an example of an on-weekend, but in San Francisco, any time there is a holiday, all people who are from out of town, leave town. This place was fun and had a good ratio of men to women. Id recommend it.

Stamina! on Sunday nights! SF DnB...worth the hour drive for sure. Its not like the 90s when we had Compound though. They trying/doing better than anyone else in the area. I just wish we had DnB here in San Jose though. Bar is legit...if you get hot go in the room in back on the left side of the club to chill out.

The club runs false time based promotions. Isnt it a bit of a scam to say show up by 11 then make you wait till 20 minutes in line, and triple the door charge?

I only visit F8 for their Housepitality weekly music event on Wednesdays. The atmosphere is divey and the people who attend this event are pretty down to earth. Decent sized bar with plenty of room to order drinks. Sound system is perfect for the size for the venue. They also bring in a lot of world class talent. Deep, funky, tech, acid. Their back room gets crowded because of the size, but to each his own. They do have a cover charge, but if you RSVP on the site, it usually is free or discounted. Come dance your shoes off!

We came on a Wednesday night and didnt really enjoy the time here, the music isnt great,so does the crowd. Ambience is like a local bar with very small dance floor.

I would definitely check this place out on wednesday nights. from 9-10pm there is usually free champagne and then housepitality night from 10pm-2am with 2 rooms of house music all night. the back room is a little warmer but funkier music. the crowd is friendly and dancing constantly. ;)

I have been coming to f8, and specifically to Stamina Sundays for the free drum n bass every Sunday, for years. But I have had yet to try the cocktails, even after so many years. Im not usually a fan of cocktails and oft stick to beer, BUT LET ME TELL YOU! - the Rum Punch is superrrr tasty! Demitria whipped me one up with the quickness and it was gone in half the time*. The bar staff here is lovely, the atmosphere is inviting and situationally-perfect, and I now know, the drinks are fantastic. BOH BOH BOH*bonus points if you get the dnb/half-time reference.
