What players say

My friend and I were in the Marina after an event at Fort Mason, and were looking for a low-key bar to get a drink. Fortunately, we were lucky to stumble across Horseshoe Tavern, as it immediately gave across a welcoming and comfortable vibe.

★★★★★ Cody, May 2026

A proper bar where beer is the priority with shots and cocktails secondary. A couple of pool tables, reasonable prices. Just don’t do what I did and order a random draft beer without checking the strength. It could get messy.

★★★★☆ Kevin, Mar 2024

If you take a look from the outside you might keep walking. Big mistake. Everyone was super friendly, ran into mostly locals grabbing fresh beers. Excellent selection on tap, and beer/shot combo specials that didn't break the bank. They have pool in the back.

★★★★★ Matthew, Mar 2024

The Horseshoe Tavern — Marina District, San Francisco A Gonzo Field Report by a Man Who Should’ve Gone Home Three Drinks Ago There are bars you enter, and there are bars you fall into like a wounded buffalo, bleeding hope and thirsty for redemption.
