Noc Noc
Most Unusual Bar in San Francisco · CA
Lower Haight's most unusual bar.
Noc Noc has been the Lower Haight's otherworldly dive since 1986, a dim, sculpted grotto that looks like a set from "Blade Runner" by way of the Flintstones. There's no hard liquor — just beer, wine and sake — plus cheap happy hours and a downtempo, dub-heavy soundtrack that made it a neighborhood cornerstone.
A San Francisco original for nearly 40 years, Noc Noc is the 2025 Centurion Award winner.
